Jeanne Recommends her Favorite Pork Recipes
Recently we had the opportunity to present a lunch and learn on "How to Stay Young the First 100 Years at Work" at the National Pork Board. Our visit gave us a renewed appreciation of "the other white meat."
I usually buy a 4-6 lb pork tenderloin and cut it in half.
The first half I slice into 6 - 1” chops, marinade these in a Ziploc bag with ½ bottle of Italian (oily) dressing for at least 15 mins. Grill them up and serve them with roasted red potatoes and a green steamed veggie!!
The other half I will slow cook in the crock pot for about 6 hours with nothing but 2-3 cans of Cream of Mushroom soup. The meat just melts in your mouth and the juices make the soup into a delicious gravy that I serve over creamy mashed potatoes. It is wonderful to come home to on these cold dark evenings!!
Hope that you enjoy these with your family!
Dr. Krohse Recommends Healthier Living and Optimal Weight
Since January, 2010 I have personally made some drastic improvements to my diet which have led to sustained healthier weight. I've enjoyed the improved confidence, faster running times, better energy levels, and decreased allergies that I've experienced as a result of changing my nutrition. For others looking to make changes I'm happy to share the two strategies that I believe work best for people.
Standard Process Purification Program combined with Education on Proper Nutrition
My personal dietary improvement got a huge jump start from the Standard Process Purification Program. I detailed my experience with that at my blog. In the time since I completed the purification, I have read two books that have guided my dietary strategies. Brief summaries of those books are below:
The Paleo Solution by Robb Wolf - Until the 20th century, many foods that can be so easily obtained today were not available on a regular basis. Our bodies were challenged with far fewer foods. By looking at what people ate before refrigeration, modern transportation, and the agricultural revolution we can discover why certain food groups now considered part of a "balanced diet" may be harmful to our health and ideal weight maintenance, especially in the proportions commonly consumed today. Though the recommendations initially look daunting, Robb shares that most people can follow 80 percent of the recommendations and get 95 percent of the benefits of the paleo diet, making this plan much more palatable. This is one of the funniest books on nutrition that I've read.
Why We Get Fat and What to Do About It by Gary Taubes - When people think about losing weight, most think about just two variables: caloric intake and exercise. In enthralling expose-style writing, Gary Taubes shares that a third variable, hormonal control of body composition, has a larger effect than either of the first two. If your hormones are telling your body to increase or maintain its fat stores, then practically no amount of exercise and calorie restriction will result in long term weight loss. In fact, it will most likely lead a person to become fatigued as your body steals energy to maintain fat. The hormone insulin tells your body to store fat. In order to decrease insulin's control of your body composition, you need to decrease the carbohydrates that lead to high insulin levels.
Take Shape for Life featuring Medifast Meals
I personally have friends and colleagues who have thrived and lost triple-digit weight with the Take Shape for Life program. With this program, you simply have five Medifast meals each day and then one Lean and Green meal. There are over 70 delicious Medifast meals to choose from. For the Lean and Green meal you get to choose a lean protein and your favorite vegetables. One additional benefit of this program is that you get a free health coach who guides you and provides knowledge and accountability. I strongly recommend local health coach Kristin Rinderknecht. She can be reached at 515-979-6784 or kcrinder@gmail.com. Learn more at her website: www.coachkristin.tsfl.com.
