🌿 Friday Night Nourishment — Delicious Food Can Still Be Healing 🌿 One of the biggest mindset shifts inside the HOARP approach is learning that healthy food does not need to feel restrictive, bland, or “clinical.” My planned dinner is a perfect example of how we can create a meal that is:✨ mineral rich✨ lower inflammatory✨ supportive of blood sugar balance✨ supportive of gut health✨ deeply satisfying WITHOUT needing lots of starch, sugar, or processed ingredients. 🥩 The Meal• Fresh lamb cutlets• Creamy cauliflower purée• Warm zucchini ribbons with herbs• Warm blueberry coconut crumble for dessert So why is this meal actually nourishing on a deeper level? 🩸 Lamb = Mineral & Protein Powerhouse Fresh lamb is naturally rich in:• iron• zinc• B12• taurine• carnitine• high quality protein These nutrients may help support:✔ muscle maintenance✔ energy production✔ nervous system function✔ healthy blood production✔ satiety and stable appetite Protein is also one of the most important “signals” for healthy ageing, strength, and metabolic health. 🧂 Minerals Matter When we focus only on calories, we often miss the bigger picture. Meals like this may help improve:• potassium intake• magnesium intake• sodium balance• trace minerals Minerals act like tiny electrical conductors within the body and may influence:⚡ hydration⚡ nerve signalling⚡ muscle function⚡ bowel motility⚡ energy levels This is one reason we focus so heavily on mineral-rich foods and fluids inside HOARP. 🥦 Why Replace Heavy Starches? Instead of large amounts of bread, pasta, chips, or processed carbohydrates, we are using:• cauliflower• zucchini• herbs• berries (think moist foods) This gives fibre, phytonutrients, and texture without the large glucose spikes many people experience after refined carbohydrates. Many people notice they feel:✔ lighter✔ less bloated✔ calmer✔ more energised when meals are built this way. 🫐 Dessert Without the Crash The blueberry coconut crumble still feels comforting and abundant — but without the heavy sugar load.

How’s the salty water ladies ? Ps please scroll down to other messages.

I bought some cacao for the first time. Does anyone have any recipes for hot drinks. Im not sure how much to use, ta

I was unable to save the recording so here is a summary We discussed how the minerals work and why. We discussed that this week we continue with your dose of minerals and add in 1x sachet of the PH salts in 700 mL water. and how they work. To adjust dose some may need to dilute. Others concentrate. @Carol Nedov @Jackie Wallington @Nicky Edwards and @Joanne Ratcliffe you may need to condense to 1 sachet in 600mL Water if bowels have been still a little sluggish after chloride. If they are going okay stick with 700mL water. @Diane Gray @Debbie Cooper and @Joanne Mackie you may find the sachet needs to go into 1L of water. My suggestion is start your day by making up your desired dose (700 mL or 1 L) then have a cup of the Ph salt solution then sip the rest during the day. Keep away from food (15 minutes is enough). Questions answered. 1. @Jackie Wallington you can add mineral chloride to 1.5 tsp but have it in 300-350mL water. 2. @Nicky Edwards great question the food. I’ve done two pdf files on this exact thing. Head to the top of the page. Click on Classroom then click on DrLisa Osteo HOARP then you will see a few learning pdfs. There is mineral rich foods and mineral dense food comparison. You’ll see all you need there. Re sweet treats. Add some honey to herbal teas, fruit is good. You could make some protein balls (although for many nuts are super hard to digest). Once you start the Ph salt solution I’d be interested to see if when you have a craving and drink the salts your cravings go. Oh. A cacao hot drink with some maple syrup is delicious. 3. @Debbie Cooper yes add 1/2 tsp to mineral chloride dose but again you may find once you add the salts your bowels improve. 4. @Diane Gray great question re reflux. I’ll do another post just for that.

@Diane Gray thank you for your question regarding reflux. I too suffered with this. Several things. First try having your mineral chloride with dinner or shift it to lunch time. The magnesium may be relaxing the sphincter muscle that connects your oesophagus to your stomach. And if you’re depleted in calcium and potassium the contraction phase of this muscle isn’t working. So too much relaxation and not enough contra in. There is alot of focus out there on magnesium deficiency but few address the fact that minerals work in conjunction with each other in a very balanced and ordered manner. More of one mineral can create an imbalance if you don’t balance out the others at the same time. Two. Stop eating and drinking 2-3 hours before bed. So yes that nice cuppa before bed needs to be moved. If you go to bed with too much liquid and or food in your stomach this can lead to reflux. Also if reflux is during the day go for a short walk after each meal. Even 10 minutes. This aids digestion. Thirdly consider how much food you’re eating. Too much volume puts pressure on the stomach and can lead to reflux. Finally you may need to stop your other magnesium supplement for the duration of this program as it may be upsetting the mineral ratios. Progurt took 7 years to perfect the mineral chloride ratio. It is a very precise formulation
