Today, we're not only sharing the number one cancer fighting food with you that you need to get on your plate on a regular basis.
00:00:06.854 --> 00:00:10.467
We're also sharing the simple ways you can get it.
00:00:10.467 --> 00:00:12.653
Here we go.
00:00:12.653 --> 00:00:16.179
Hey sister, welcome to the Power On Plants podcast.
00:00:16.179 --> 00:00:21.693
Are you tired of staring into the fridge wondering what to eat so you can just feel better?
00:00:21.693 --> 00:00:26.980
Do you want to avoid spending hours in the kitchen making complicated meals in the name of health?
00:00:26.980 --> 00:00:33.374
Would you love to leave fatigue behind and finally have the energy to do all the things you want to do?
00:00:33.374 --> 00:00:41.034
Hi, we're Sheridan and Iterousel Christ followers, health care professionals, parents of four and big fans of great tasting food.
00:00:41.034 --> 00:00:53.140
We, too, tried exercising more, eating natural and clean foods, but we still found ourselves struggling with what we thought were changes that come with age or bad genes, and we weren't finding answers to traditional routes.
00:00:53.140 --> 00:01:00.420
So we dug into the research and created our secret nutritional weapon sustainable plant-based living.
00:01:00.420 --> 00:01:04.271
The truth is, you can eat more whole plant foods and it's not hard.
00:01:04.271 --> 00:01:05.865
You just need the way.
00:01:05.865 --> 00:01:09.180
That's realistic and delicious so you never feel deprived.
00:01:09.180 --> 00:01:17.579
If you're ready to enjoy your meals, no longer be held back by your health struggles and actively live your life, then you're in the right place.
00:01:17.579 --> 00:01:22.953
So grab your favorite plant-based cup of happy pop in those earbuds and let's get started.
00:01:22.953 --> 00:01:29.939
Sister, I am so excited Our group coaching program in Mastermind Power on Plant Society opens.
00:01:29.939 --> 00:01:36.808
We are gonna make this year and the years to come your best years ever, and this is how we do it.
00:01:36.808 --> 00:01:40.239
One of the things we're talking about today is we're gonna share with you right up front.
00:01:40.239 --> 00:01:42.608
I'm not gonna make you wait, sheridan's not gonna make you wait.
00:01:42.608 --> 00:01:58.251
We're gonna tell you what that ingredient is that needs to be on your plant-based plate Every single day so that you can start feeling better, fight off bacteria, fight off infection, decrease inflammation and prevent and even reverse cancer.
00:01:58.251 --> 00:02:02.370
And the number one cancer fighting food is garlic.
00:02:02.370 --> 00:02:05.060
Now we love us some fresh garlic around here.
00:02:05.060 --> 00:02:10.780
I'm telling you I don't know of much of anything that I make that doesn't have it in it, except for desserts.
00:02:10.780 --> 00:02:13.449
I haven't found a way to really work it into dessert yet.
00:02:13.449 --> 00:02:16.199
If you've got a garlicky dessert, send it my way.
00:02:16.600 --> 00:02:17.504
That would be interesting.
00:02:17.504 --> 00:02:18.528
It would be interesting.
00:02:18.528 --> 00:02:20.606
I haven't worked it into my morning oats either.
00:02:20.606 --> 00:02:22.862
No, no, I'm probably not gonna do that.
00:02:23.024 --> 00:02:24.969
Garlic chocolate, unless you go savory oats.
00:02:24.969 --> 00:02:31.699
No, you could go savory oats, I could, but I kinda like my chocolates, you get that big boost of the cacao.
00:02:31.699 --> 00:02:33.788
Yeah, you're the cacao man, that's for sure.
00:02:33.900 --> 00:02:37.790
The fire, nutrients, the antioxidants, and it's just, it's a super food.
00:02:38.099 --> 00:02:42.329
That's all good for you, but I promise you you get your garlic every day.
00:02:42.329 --> 00:02:45.146
You may not always know you get your garlic every day.
00:02:45.146 --> 00:02:48.807
Oh, I'm sure I do, you do you get more than your allotted amount?
00:02:48.807 --> 00:02:49.430
Most likely.
00:02:49.430 --> 00:02:54.311
What we know about garlic is that it stops growth of cancer cells.
00:02:54.311 --> 00:02:59.250
Not only can it prevent it, research shows time and again that it stops it.
00:02:59.250 --> 00:03:00.072
What kind of cancer?
00:03:00.072 --> 00:03:02.347
A lot of different types of cancer.
00:03:02.347 --> 00:03:06.871
You can look into the researchy and look that up online garlic and cancer.
00:03:06.871 --> 00:03:09.669
There are a lot of research studies out there.
00:03:09.800 --> 00:03:22.093
A great place to go and find that kind of stuff would be pubmedgov, Because they've got a list of every single study that has been created under the sun.
00:03:22.093 --> 00:03:29.707
Now you may not see all of the actual studies themselves, but they will show just an abstract, just an abbreviated form of what the findings were.
00:03:29.860 --> 00:03:36.209
Yeah, and I kinda like that, because they sum it up for you and it makes it really easy and simple to look at it and say, okay, this is what this study showed.
00:03:36.209 --> 00:03:37.745
This is what that study showed.
00:03:37.745 --> 00:03:42.187
Oh, this is why I need to eat garlic, and you can see it there before your own eyes.
00:03:42.187 --> 00:03:43.562
Maybe you don't have time.
00:03:43.562 --> 00:03:46.790
That's why we're curating, we're bringing this information to you.
00:03:46.790 --> 00:03:49.885
You need to know what to eat, but not just what to eat.
00:03:49.885 --> 00:03:50.647
How do you eat it?
00:03:50.647 --> 00:03:52.931
But why is garlic so important?
00:03:52.931 --> 00:03:55.663
I want you to think about this for a minute.
00:03:55.663 --> 00:04:00.824
This one thing I'm gonna tell you garlic targets the cancer cells.
00:04:00.824 --> 00:04:04.804
It does not touch your healthy cells.
00:04:04.804 --> 00:04:08.403
It doesn't touch the cells that are functioning properly.
00:04:08.403 --> 00:04:09.879
It's selective.
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:17.521
Do other medications and other ways that people used to treat cancer generally do they leave your healthy cells alone?
00:04:17.521 --> 00:04:24.860
No, when you're having chemo, when you're doing other treatments, when you're taking other medications.
00:04:24.860 --> 00:04:28.442
It doesn't only target the cancer cells.
00:04:28.442 --> 00:04:31.023
You get cell damage of your healthy cells.
00:04:31.023 --> 00:04:38.702
So this is a great way to get something into your body that's going to prevent and even possibly reverse cancer cells.
00:04:38.702 --> 00:04:41.783
Don't just think people that have cancer have cancer.
00:04:41.783 --> 00:04:43.341
Everyone has cancer cells.
00:04:43.341 --> 00:04:44.360
It's a rogue cell.
00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:47.043
It's just a cell that's not functioning properly.
00:04:47.043 --> 00:04:58.322
When you actually notice it, it's when you have so many clumped together that you start getting a lump, a nodule, or it stops a function of your body in some way that it properly needs to function.
00:04:58.834 --> 00:05:00.781
When our immune system is functioning properly.
00:05:00.781 --> 00:05:09.305
When you start to get some of these cancer cells, you may get a very small clump not anything that you would feel or know but our immune system goes in and attacks it and gets rid of it.
00:05:09.305 --> 00:05:18.641
So, like you're saying, we at any given time will have cancer cells within us, but our body was created to take care of that, to take out the garbage.
00:05:18.834 --> 00:05:23.420
When it has the nutrients in the hands, it has the nutrients, and it has what it needs to function properly.
00:05:23.420 --> 00:05:25.642
And when it's not getting bombarded.
00:05:25.642 --> 00:05:27.120
This is a two-part process.
00:05:27.120 --> 00:05:29.141
It's not getting bombarded by the things.
00:05:29.141 --> 00:05:30.781
That is keeping it sabotaged.
00:05:30.781 --> 00:05:37.622
This is why we feel so overwhelmed sometimes, because we keep getting those things that we don't even know sometimes are sabotaging us.
00:05:37.622 --> 00:05:41.242
Right, you first gotta learn what they are and then learn the simple ways to get rid of those.
00:05:41.242 --> 00:05:46.884
But then you've gotta learn to get beyond that mindset of focusing on I can't have this, I can't have that right.
00:05:46.884 --> 00:05:54.341
What can I have, what should I be eating, and how can I get that thing into my meals in a way that's quick, simple and delicious?
00:05:54.341 --> 00:05:56.300
So I'll love it long-term.
00:05:57.074 --> 00:06:02.562
You want to focus on the target you're trying to hit, not the target you're trying to avoid.
00:06:03.055 --> 00:06:08.785
And isn't it interesting that God created these whole plant foods in the way that they are selective?
00:06:08.785 --> 00:06:10.221
They're naturally selective.
00:06:10.221 --> 00:06:15.062
They just do this by nature because it's how he created them.
00:06:15.062 --> 00:06:19.781
Now, I've kind of given you the answer there, but I just want you to stop for a minute.
00:06:19.781 --> 00:06:21.319
Think about garlic.
00:06:21.319 --> 00:06:26.819
Just this one thing it stops only the growth of cancer cells and doesn't touch normal cells.
00:06:26.819 --> 00:06:28.180
Now think about this for a minute.
00:06:28.180 --> 00:06:29.779
What else does that remind you of?
00:06:29.779 --> 00:06:32.221
I kind of gave the answer away.
00:06:32.221 --> 00:06:34.079
What else does this remind you of?
00:06:34.079 --> 00:06:36.699
Whole plant foods?
00:06:36.699 --> 00:06:38.425
All whole plant foods do this.
00:06:38.425 --> 00:06:47.283
They tend to target the things in our body that we need to get rid of, and helps our body get it out of there, get rid of the trash, get rid of the toxic things.
00:06:47.283 --> 00:06:58.343
But what happens is it keeps getting bombarded by those things over and over again, the things that are sabotaging us, and then we don't have the good nutrients coming in and we don't have the water to wash it all out either.
00:06:58.343 --> 00:07:00.122
That's super, super important.
00:07:00.122 --> 00:07:05.524
If you don't have those three things happening together, how can your body prevent the toxins from building up?
00:07:05.524 --> 00:07:09.543
How can your body have the nutrients it needs to repair?
00:07:09.543 --> 00:07:15.757
So this is a several step process, but the important thing is is first learning what do I need to eat?
00:07:15.757 --> 00:07:16.939
What needs to be on my plate?
00:07:16.939 --> 00:07:18.786
Garlic needs to be on your plate.
00:07:18.786 --> 00:07:34.670
Whole plant feeds, the five power feeds, need to be on your plate, because they all naturally fight the invaders, the intruders, the inflammation, the things we want to get rid of, while naturally helping our body to heal, because they give our bodies the nutrients they need.
00:07:35.500 --> 00:07:46.728
Especially if you're new to whole food, plant based living and if you're thinking what are some of the steps that I can do that can move the needle for me now the most, and I would say definitely garlic would be one of those.
00:07:46.728 --> 00:07:48.464
Plus, it just tastes amazing.
00:07:48.464 --> 00:07:55.266
As long as it's not something like a dessert or oatmeal, it tastes amazing on the right things.
00:07:55.379 --> 00:07:58.427
And that gets to the next point how do you get it then?
00:07:58.427 --> 00:08:00.827
I mean, this is the big question we see all the time.
00:08:00.827 --> 00:08:07.670
I just got an email this morning from a listener and she said it's great, I know I need whole plant feeds, but I'm stuck with not knowing what to do.
00:08:07.670 --> 00:08:10.428
I mean, I've got some rice, I've got some beans, what else can I eat?
00:08:10.428 --> 00:08:13.389
I'm getting tired of these two things together all the time.
00:08:13.389 --> 00:08:15.204
And the same would go with garlic.
00:08:15.204 --> 00:08:18.168
I've got garlic, I know I need it, I want to eat it.
00:08:18.168 --> 00:08:22.290
You can't just go through your life saying I want to do this thing, I want to do that thing.
00:08:22.290 --> 00:08:23.805
You've got to have a plan.
00:08:23.805 --> 00:08:25.004
What is your plan?
00:08:25.004 --> 00:08:28.470
How are you going to know what step to take next and what step to take next?
00:08:28.470 --> 00:08:42.884
So you gain knowledge for a while, but then you've got to know how to implement that knowledge that take you to the life you want to live, that active days you picture yourself living, that you see in your future that just aren't happening because you don't feel good.
00:08:42.884 --> 00:08:45.808
So, with garlic, what are the simple ways to get it?
00:08:45.808 --> 00:08:50.384
These are the kind of things we do inside Power On Plant Society, the group coaching mastermind community.
00:08:50.384 --> 00:08:52.645
So we're going to do this with you right now.
00:08:52.645 --> 00:08:56.571
I want you to think about, first of all, raw or cooked, right?
00:08:56.571 --> 00:08:57.884
People ask that raw or cooked.
00:08:57.884 --> 00:09:02.410
We say both, but the problem is that most people are not getting raw.
00:09:02.410 --> 00:09:19.511
And so when you cook a food, yes, some nutrients do magnify, and that's a great thing, but a lot of the nutrients, like the enzymes that help you to assimilate the nutrients, to break them down in your body, to use them optimally are denatured above a certain temperature.
00:09:19.511 --> 00:09:25.412
So then you get into the fact of not being able to use everything that's in that food.
00:09:25.412 --> 00:09:35.409
This is why you want to focus on ways to get raw as well as cook, because most of us are missing or not getting nearly enough raw foods.
00:09:35.409 --> 00:09:40.311
So what are some simple ways to get raw garlic?
00:09:40.311 --> 00:09:47.289
And inside the group I might ask this, and people would just start chiming in oh, I love putting it on this, oh, I like putting it on that, oh, I like this, I like that.
00:09:47.289 --> 00:09:51.684
And then we would chime in and say, hey, here's what we do, here's some more simple ways that you can do this.
00:09:51.684 --> 00:09:52.708
It's crazy.
00:09:52.708 --> 00:10:02.110
I got this direct message from one of our members this morning and she may not know it, but she has coined a new term that I love so much Christy Girl.
00:10:02.110 --> 00:10:02.770
I love this.
00:10:02.770 --> 00:10:05.967
This is what she wrote me about her experience inside the membership.
00:10:05.967 --> 00:10:13.745
She said I saw this other member, what she posted and it looks super because Christy herself had posted something.
00:10:13.745 --> 00:10:27.326
Another member had been made her take on it, and so we've been talking back and forth about different ways we could modify this power on plants recipe to change it up, to make a whole different dish, to make something different off of it, just from the idea.
00:10:27.326 --> 00:10:31.690
So she said I saw this member's post on what I did her take on it.
00:10:31.690 --> 00:10:32.552
It looked good.
00:10:32.552 --> 00:10:38.392
I was excited to see how she worked it out and what she would alter next time.
00:10:38.392 --> 00:10:43.311
So then she writes constant hashtag circle of creativity.
00:10:43.311 --> 00:10:51.288
I love this hashtag so much Circle of creativity and that is exactly what this community is.
00:10:51.288 --> 00:11:05.091
We see you coming into the group, plugging in, getting involved, sharing what you're doing, inspire somebody else to have an idea to do something else, and you get this hashtag circle of creativity where you then know what to do.
00:11:05.091 --> 00:11:11.727
You know I just shared with you about the email I got this morning from this listener who didn't know what to do beyond rice and beans.
00:11:11.727 --> 00:11:12.990
This is how you learn.
00:11:12.990 --> 00:11:19.125
You've got to get in the community with people who are actively doing this, who are actively posting, getting involved.
00:11:19.125 --> 00:11:21.567
They're not spending hours and hours of their day.
00:11:21.567 --> 00:11:23.666
None of us have time for that, sister.
00:11:23.666 --> 00:11:25.745
None of us have time for that, or brothers.
00:11:25.745 --> 00:11:26.948
I know you're listening too.
00:11:26.948 --> 00:11:28.424
I'm showing you the love right here.
00:11:28.424 --> 00:11:38.437
But this is the thing Hashtag, a circle of creativity, and she said once we get in the loop, there's no stopping us.
00:11:38.437 --> 00:11:40.342
Think about that for a minute.
00:11:40.342 --> 00:11:44.373
She has gotten it and this is why we're seeing her get results.
00:11:44.373 --> 00:11:48.412
This is why we're seeing the other person she's talking about get results.
00:11:48.412 --> 00:11:50.725
They are not where they want to be yet.
00:11:50.725 --> 00:11:54.552
We should never, on a growth journey, be where we want to be it.
00:11:54.552 --> 00:11:57.480
I'm not where I necessarily want to be yet.
00:11:57.480 --> 00:11:57.902
Why?
00:11:57.902 --> 00:12:01.480
Because we constantly want to be growing and thriving.
00:12:01.480 --> 00:12:06.551
But that happens inside the right community where people are sharing their ideas.
00:12:06.551 --> 00:12:07.413
What should I cook?
00:12:07.413 --> 00:12:09.825
How do I use this ingredient?
00:12:09.825 --> 00:12:16.687
Oh, I just made this with this ingredient and last time I bought that ingredient, it went bad in my fridge because I didn't know what to do with it.
00:12:16.687 --> 00:12:25.024
Now I've made this thing and I know what I liked about it and I know how to tweak it next time, and this is going to become a new Hashtag go-to favorite of mine.
00:12:25.024 --> 00:12:31.804
This is what we see happening day after day, week after week, inside a power-on-plant society.
00:12:31.804 --> 00:12:36.533
So let's now think about what can you do with raw garlic.
00:12:36.533 --> 00:12:40.214
How can you, right now, start getting more raw garlic into your life?
00:12:40.214 --> 00:12:41.600
Some ways that we do it.
00:12:41.600 --> 00:12:45.033
We love eating raw garlic in a salad dressing.
00:12:45.033 --> 00:12:47.750
Do you know that you need to become a sauce boss?
00:12:47.750 --> 00:12:53.259
We have a sauce boss podcast episode about that that you should listen to at some point.
00:12:53.259 --> 00:12:57.820
But what I want you to think about here is sauces and dressings are not hard to replace.
00:12:57.820 --> 00:13:10.677
It's crucial that you learn how to replace those right away in the beginning and find your new favorites of those, because sauces make your meals taste amazing and if you can make a sauce and drop a fresh garlic clove in there.
00:13:10.677 --> 00:13:13.246
People talk about how hard fresh garlic is to use.
00:13:13.246 --> 00:13:17.924
I honestly don't get it, because you buy a bulb of fresh garlic.
00:13:17.924 --> 00:13:20.312
All you have to do is peel the skin off of it.
00:13:20.312 --> 00:13:25.471
You don't even have to chop it or mince it, you throw it into your blender with the sauce ingredients.
00:13:25.471 --> 00:13:28.129
Boom, two minutes later, sauces on the plate.
00:13:28.129 --> 00:13:34.153
I say five minutes sauces, but honest to goodness, they are one to two minutes what you know how to make them.
00:13:34.153 --> 00:13:35.620
That's how simple this is.
00:13:35.620 --> 00:13:39.288
This is the easiest way you can possibly eat.
00:13:39.288 --> 00:13:41.916
It is the simplest when you know how.
00:13:41.916 --> 00:13:45.745
It's easy, clean up, it's easy to do now.
00:13:45.745 --> 00:13:48.331
Do you like guacamole or avocado?
00:13:48.331 --> 00:13:49.895
It's great on toast.
00:13:49.895 --> 00:13:51.700
It's great on sandwiches as a base.
00:13:51.700 --> 00:13:54.091
There's so many different ways you can use it.
00:13:54.091 --> 00:14:00.668
Just think dressings, sources that's the easy way to get it on your salads, your casseroles.
00:14:00.668 --> 00:14:03.513
That you're drizzling dressings over your potatoes.
00:14:03.513 --> 00:14:08.087
That you're drizzling Sources over guacamole, homemade pico.
00:14:08.087 --> 00:14:15.107
Take this so easy to make, so easy and delicious, wonderful in the summertime Sources for your nourish bowls.
00:14:15.671 --> 00:14:16.715
I was thinking tofu.
00:14:16.735 --> 00:14:17.799
Oh, my word.
00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:18.966
Asian peanut sauce.
00:14:18.966 --> 00:14:21.840
Oh, yeah, that was one of the first things that came to my mind, garlic on there.
00:14:21.899 --> 00:14:25.568
Now, that's not as much raw, because we usually bake them, but it can't be raw.
00:14:25.589 --> 00:14:26.751
Wasn't thinking about that?
00:14:26.799 --> 00:14:29.198
No, but we also do our tofu in the dehydrator.
00:14:29.198 --> 00:14:41.940
And let me tell you, if you get a good sauce on some tofu and you dehydrate it we say it stayed about 118 degrees Fahrenheit, so you don't get that denaturing of the enzymes you will not believe how good your tofu tastes in a dehydrator.
00:14:41.940 --> 00:14:47.139
Just do not make the mistake of going to bed at night without taking it out of the dehydrator.
00:14:47.139 --> 00:14:47.826
How do I know?
00:14:47.826 --> 00:14:49.120
Because it happened to us.
00:14:49.581 --> 00:14:50.121
We've done it.
00:14:50.383 --> 00:14:51.666
It's tofu jerky time.
00:14:51.666 --> 00:14:53.048
You don't want that with your tofu.
00:14:53.048 --> 00:14:53.630
It does not.
00:14:53.630 --> 00:14:54.352
I don't love it.
00:14:54.352 --> 00:14:58.159
I actually have a child who does like that, jair, and I don't love it so much.
00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:00.524
We really like it where it's just like baked.
00:15:00.524 --> 00:15:04.573
You are not going to tell a difference between baked and cooked in your dehydrator.
00:15:04.573 --> 00:15:07.000
You're still going to maintain the nutrients.
00:15:07.000 --> 00:15:19.870
We know that tofu even contains more nutrients when it's not heated hot, and if you have the one to two hours to put it in your dehydrator to get it as dry as you'd like Some of you might prefer it up to three hours.
00:15:19.870 --> 00:15:29.720
I really wouldn't go any longer than that you stir it in your favorite sauce, which is going to have raw garlic in it, and when your tofu's done, your garlic is still going to be raw because you've cooked it at 118 or below.
00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:33.517
You've maintained the nutrient profile and, boom, there's more raw garlic.
00:15:33.517 --> 00:15:34.059
That was genius.
00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:39.019
But I would like to say, though, that we use the Asian peanut sauce for way more than just the tofu.
00:15:39.019 --> 00:15:42.530
Oh my goodness, use it raw on some well.
00:15:42.610 --> 00:15:45.600
I'd say cooked rice yes right, but you can pour the sauce.
00:15:45.841 --> 00:15:49.335
Oh, it would be raw over your rice, just like cool down a little bit.
00:15:49.775 --> 00:15:56.133
Oh, my goodness, I mean, it is just not hard to get raw garlic into your life.
00:15:56.133 --> 00:16:07.759
You will not believe how amazing this one thing will just start making you feel how quick this will help you kick a cold or prevent it in the first place, which is what we are all about.
00:16:07.759 --> 00:16:09.889
We don't even get it in the first place.
00:16:09.889 --> 00:16:11.073
Okay, now let's go to cook.
00:16:11.073 --> 00:16:12.078
What are the options here?
00:16:12.078 --> 00:16:27.172
Everything, anything you're cooking, I put it in pots of Instant Pot beans, soups, stews, casseroles, lasagnas, you name what we're making tacos, burritos, bowls.
00:16:27.172 --> 00:16:28.767
I mean there's so many things.
00:16:28.767 --> 00:16:32.546
Anything I'm cooking is pretty much going to have garlic again, unless it's a dessert.
00:16:32.940 --> 00:16:35.567
But what if they don't want to chop the garlic?
00:16:36.090 --> 00:16:36.289
Right.
00:16:36.289 --> 00:16:37.706
What if you don't want to chop the garlic?
00:16:37.706 --> 00:16:38.442
What could you do?
00:16:38.442 --> 00:16:40.024
All right, there's two camps here.
00:16:40.024 --> 00:16:41.282
There's the.
00:16:41.282 --> 00:16:45.006
I don't want to buy more gadget and have those in my kitchen, have to store them.
00:16:45.006 --> 00:16:46.865
I don't have room, I live in a small apartment.
00:16:46.865 --> 00:16:49.008
Then just use a chef's knife.
00:16:49.008 --> 00:16:52.309
That one knife is going to chop that garlic for you in a matter of seconds.
00:16:52.309 --> 00:16:55.870
But the thing here is you can buy a garlic press.
00:16:55.870 --> 00:16:57.365
They are not super expensive.
