Hair Care (tw:ed)
I've seen a lot of people worried about hair loss due to restricting. I definitely started to notice more shedding so I wanted to share some of my tips that helped me.
(Keep in mind that I already have naturally thick and long wavy hair, so what works for me might not necessarily work for you!)
1.) Food
PROTEIN. Protein is important for so many things, including keeping your hair healthy. The recommendation is 0.8g per kg of body weight. For me, I try to get at least 50-60 grams of protein per day. I know it can be a little hard sometimes. One of my favorite ways to get in enough protein a day is protein drinks! They can be relatively low cal with 20-40 grams and very filling. My favorite right now is the Fairlife Core Power, which is 26g of protein for 170 calories. Not to mention they taste very good.
Tumblr media
Another easy relatively low-calorie way to get in protein is Greek yogurt! If you want a really low-calorie option, I recommend Dannon light and fit Greek yogurt! 80 calories for 12g of protein! They have a vast array of flavors, but here are my personal favorites:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
If you can afford a higher-calorie option I would also recommend the Chobani flips. These are about 9-10g of protein for 150-170 calories. Not as much protein for a higher amount of calories, but if you are craving dessert, these work really well and are very satisfying! Once again they also come in a vast array of flavors, but I will show my favorites:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Nutrition. I know it's hard but eating a balanced diet is also the key to keeping your hair as healthy as possible while restricting. Some foods that I include regularly that may help hair growth/hair health are:
Spinach (2 cups are worth ~25 cal)
Eggs (One egg is 70-90 cal)
Salmon (or any fatty fish) I personally like to get the Bumble Bee Smoked Flavored Coho Salmon ( 150 cals, also 19g of protein) It is a little high cal but this is something that I think is worth the cal spending
Tumblr media
Avocado. It can be expensive to buy avocados and a lot of times when you open an avocado it can be bad on the inside. What I like to do is buy the WHOLLY Avocado minis. They are just straight avocados in little mini cups. (1 cup is 130 calories) once again a higher calorie food but something that is worth the cal spending. I have a wrap recipe that I use these for if anyone wants me to post it!
Tumblr media
Beans. One of my favorite beans to use is Great Northern Beans. I have a recipe using these beans in a delicious and low-calorie soup if anyone wants me to post it!
2.) Vitamins
You may be eating a balanced diet, but if you are restricting then you will not get enough vitamins and micronutrients. This is where I would recommend taking vitamins. I Personally take a multivitamin as well as a Hair, Skin, and Nails vitamin daily. I take the Centrum Adult Multivitamin and the Vitafusion Hair Skin and Nails Vitamin:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3.) Rosemary oil/water.
I like to use rosemary oil on my scalp followed by a five-minute scalp massage/combing with a bamboo brush every three days. I have naturally thicker and coarse hair, so my hair can take rosemary oil, but if you have thinner hair, I have read that rosemary oil can be too much, and you would need to use rosemary water. It's very easy to make, just google it! If you use rosemary oil, do not saturate your scalp with it! You only need a few drops to do the trick. It's also not recommended to put straight rosemary oil on the scalp, instead to dilute it in another carrier oil. This is the brand of rosemary oil I use:
Tumblr media
This is the bamboo brush I use, I got it from Amazon:
Tumblr media
Bamboo brushes are said to reduce breakage, reduce frizz, and aid in scalp care, aid in circulation, and hair growth. I personally have noticed my hair looking a lot healthier after switching to one.
I think that is about all the tips I have for right now. Remember I am not a doctor, hair specialist, or anything like that. These are simply some things that I do, and I have noticed that they have helped decrease hair fallout.
Remember that the best course of action is recovery, but if it is not an option for you then I understand.
I hope some of this helps and please stay safe!

It’s been a busy few days and the fatigue has been brutal.
I finished this book, yesterday:
Tumblr media
It was good. A quick read. I also liked the fact he referred to big (often well-known) studies. I’m so tired of reading books where people use tiny, out-dated, obscure studies to back up their health-related claims.
“A study of 12 people in 1974 who ate 17 grapefruits a day, bathed in mustard and did handstands every morning cured their migraines in 3 days.” …I’m obviously being sarcastic but some of the studies quoted are ridiculous and completely self serving.
Anyway, this book was a bit repetitive but the author was trying to drive home the message that a clean, vegan diet is beneficial for hormone balancing. It also says to reduce all fats (even healthy ones like olive oil, nut butters or avocados). I think he says this mostly because hormones are stored in body fat and he said the most effective way to balance hormones is to be a healthy body weight. Added saturated fats *may* cause weight gain (depending how much you eat).
I am a healthy body weight but I need more energy. Menopause (and cancer) has been an asshole. My cancer is also hormone positive. So… today is my second day of eating vegan. It’s going well. I’m on my 4th cycle of chemotherapy and normally I would have had gastrointestinal issues by now but I don’t. I think it was the dairy. I was eating a lot of yogurt (especially in the evening) as I thought it would help with gut health but now I know it made it worse. I also ate quite a bit of cheese. Plus, I added a lot of cream in my coffee. Now, I just stopped drinking it. Having herbal tea instead. The book tells you to try out the vegan diet for 3 weeks as you should start feeling better and labs should start improving. So I will try it. Diets are like medications where there’s no “one size fits all”. Just have to try different ones to see what helps and works for you.
I’ve also started reading The Metabolic Approach to Cancer. It’s got a ton of info and is pretty dry. I’m not sure what I think of it yet. Of course, one of the things it talks about is the keto diet. Personally, I don’t think that it works for most cancers. It may for some. Who knows, maybe I’ll try it at some point but I was advised against it as it can trigger a rapidly low mood (especially in the beginning). I’m generally open to anything that’ll potentially make me feel better, not worse.
Tumblr media
Why am I reading these books? I know that going on medications is only part of the puzzle piece. I have to make sure I get enough exercise, sleep, water, rest as well as fun/joy and laughter. Nutrition is a huge part though. Can’t really expect to function like a normal human being if you’re fuelling with the wrong foods. That often takes some trial and error. I’ve been vegan before a few times and felt good on it. Then I’d get lazy and fall off the wagon. So I’ll see how this time goes. I’ve got (easy) meals planned out for the week and all the groceries were delivered. Trying to set myself up for success.
The kid is also doing well on their gluten-free diet. They said they’re feeling way better (no longer bloated or constipated) and are sticking with it. I’m so glad they’re getting results so fast. I’ve also noticed their mood is changing in a positive way, too.
Tomorrow, I have an appointment with my favourite counsellor. I’ve also got a butt-load of paperwork to get through along with follow up phone calls and emails to make. I made an extensive to-do list and hope to get everything ticked off ✔️ by the end of the month. I love ticking things off. It’s a great dopamine hit.

under the assumption that people making those "i forget to eat all day and then eat two blueberries" posts are being earnest and would actually like help for this, here are some calorie dense lazy meals that can help you make sure youre getting enough food quickly from your local eating disorder recovery dude who knows way too much about calories and nutrition
peanut butter sandwich. any variation or any other nut butter is fine, but make sure it's a real butter with oil etc, not the powdered stuff. peanut butter is very calorie dense and has protein and fat. pairings like bananas, wheat bread, and other quick additions can bulk it up
granola. granola is super calorie dense even in small amounts. throw a bunch into some full fat yogurt with some fruit, drizzle honey or maple syrup if youre up to it and feeling fancy. add nuts, chocolate, whatever.
chocolate -- one bar is usually between 250-500 calories depending on size.
nuts!!!! nuts have tons of calories and lots of protein and healthy fats. one cup of walnuts is 500+ calories -- i'd also suggest these w full fat yogurt and fruit for extra bulk/protein.
COOK WITH OIL!! a little goes a long way. butter is also an option.
avocados. avocado toast is the millenial joke but put a thick layer of avocado on a couple fat slices of bread (toasted if youd like) and toss seasonings and whatever youd like on it for a good dose of fat fiber and carbs. if you have the energy, add an egg for extra protein
pasta. cook an entire box of pasta ahead of time and keep it in the fridge, reheat on low energy days. a bowl can give you a good amount of calories, even more if you add sauce/cheese/etc. rice is also a good option -- especially if you Throw An Egg On It(tm) again.
bananas arent super high calorie but they have higher calories than most fruit, so mix them with other things (on toast, in yogurt, etc) to bulk up
mix and match these foods if you want calorie bombs that can make up for a day of undereating, ex: a bowl of full fat yogurt with bananas, nuts and chocolate chips, pasta with olive oil and cheese, avocado toast with thick bread and oil drizzle.
this is just a starting point. go for meals that have a good mix of carbs, protein, fiber and fat. doesnt matter where it comes from, just get it in. pizza. sweet potato with butter. a frozen broccoli bake. canned chili with rice. egg and cheese on a bagel. getting all your calories in one meal is NOT recommended but if you struggle eating throughout the day you can bulk out what you do eat to make sure youre not hurting your body.

Yo, re: meal prep, you got any recipes or resources to share? I need to get workin' out and eat an actual diet of like...food. Might give meal prep a shot myself.
Alright alright alright. so before I go into anything, meal prep will largely depend on what your goals are!
Are you trying to lose fat? Bulk up? Or are you just prepping your meals so you don't gotta worry about cooking later?
If it's just you prepping your meals for the sake of not cooking later, my top tips are:
Choose one meal of the day you're gonna prepare for: Breakfast, Lunch, or Dinner
Choose the day you're gonna cook and how many days you're prepping for. I typically prep for 5 days, for example
Choose the meal in question! This can be anything you'd be fine with eating for the next few days.
Once you got all that, I'd recommend you choose at least 1 source of protein and 1 source of carbs. Fat is usually already in the protein, but if you're needing something specific, you can choose things like avocado or olive oil or dairy as a nutritious fat source.
As a quick example, my meal preps are for lunch. Last week I prepped chicken alfredo, so my protein source was chicken breast, my carb source was the pasta (additional carbs from mushroom and tomato), and because chicken breast is relatively low on fat my fat source came from the cheese.
I just cooked everything I needed for that dish on my chosen day (meal preps for me are Thursdays) and portion them out as evenly as I can in containers, and badaboom. Basically home made takeout meals, ready to grab and go!
------
Now, if you're trying to utilize meal prepping as a means to lose OR gain weight, it gets a little more nuanced. And before you even touch your nutrition, you need to know exactly what your goals are when you say you're looking to "work out".
Are you trying to get bigger and stronger? Are you trying to get leaner and shredded? Something in between?
If you'd like advice directly from me I'd need to know a little more, but you're always free to ask me whatever if you're up to it!
But as far as general resources go if you'd like to do your own research, for a simple but very helpful start I'd recommend Jeremy Either's youtube vids on the subjects you're lookin' for. He has an extensive library of vids that talk about and break down anything you could be lookin for when it comes to fitness, such as workout plans, nutrition tips, so on!
You'll likely have to still do some homework for specifics, but he's a great place to get started. :)

Tofu veggie scramble
Ingredients:
Extra-firm tofu (no need to press it; just break it apart into scramble-like pieces)
Turmeric (optional; for colour)
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder
Nutritional Yeast (or cheese)
Salt
Your choice of vegetables
Method:
Drain the tofu, then break it apart using your hands or a couple of forks until it resembles scrambled eggs.
In a bowl, mix together the tofu, nutritional yeast, garlic, onion, salt, turmeric, paprika, and pepper. Let it sit for 5 minutes to let the flavors meld.
Sauté the tofu on medium-low heat until hot (about 8-10 minutes). You can use a nonstick pan without oil, but if you prefer, use 1-2 teaspoons of oil.
Roast and serve with your favourite vegetables (think tomatoes, spinach, mushrooms, or zucchini)
Variations:
Veggie Variations: ➔ Spinach and Tomato: Sauté spinach and cherry tomatoes with garlic before adding the tofu. The vibrant colors and flavors will elevate your scramble. ➔ Bell Peppers and Onions: Dice bell peppers and onions, then cook them until slightly caramelized. Mix them into the tofu scramble for a sweet and savory twist. ➔ Mushrooms and Kale: Sauté sliced mushrooms and kale until tender. Fold them into the tofu mixture for an earthy flavor.
Spice It Up: ➔ Add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce if you like some heat. ➔ Experiment with different herbs like fresh basil, chives, or parsley for added freshness.
Cheesy Goodness: ➔ Besides nutritional yeast, you can also sprinkle in some vegan cheese or dairy-free feta for extra creaminess.
Texture Play: ➔ For a crunch, toss in some sliced almonds or sunflower seeds. ➔ Crumbled vegan bacon or tempeh adds a smoky flavor and texture.
Serving Ideas: ➔ Serve your tofu scramble on whole-grain toast, in a wrap, or alongside avocado slices. ➔ Top with a dollop of vegan sour cream or a sprinkle of chopped green onions.

What conditioner are you using? As a fellow curly girl
disclaimer my hair texture is fine strands but dense (as in a looot of it) and ringlet type curls so some formulas that work for other curly girls don't work for me. so for example coconut oil formulas ruin my hair. my hair likes avocado oil and argan oil best bc it doesn't weigh it down too much. i use hask argan oil deep repairing mask on occasion (on the pricier side) in combination with garnier fructis triple nutrition conditioner weekly (more affordable)

Hidden deep within your brain the pineal gland is regulating daily and seasonal rhythms in response to sunlight. Unfortunately, accumulating neurotoxicity, inflammation, and calcification, is silently crushing this critical gland.
Pineal Purpose
The pineal-body is a pea-size pinecone-shaped endocrine gland weighing just 0.1g and floating in its own pool of cerebrospinal fluid, above the roof of your mouth. It contains photoreceptive cells that switch on, and off, hormone and neurotransmitter production on or off in response to sunlight.
Seeds, greens, avocados, and burro bananas - make sure you fuel pineal production. Dr. Sebi taught us that “Real Soul food is food that enhances the Soul, our central Sun, our carbon. Fruits, vegetables, grains, this is REAL food.”
Master Conductor
The pineal gland controls other endocrine glands, interlinking the brain with the body via hormones and neurotransmitters. Acting like a biological-clock, the pineal gland coordinates our interaction with the sun:
Rhythms: sleep and wake cycles, seasonal responses.
Reproduction: fertility levels and sex hormone production.
Regulation: growth, body temperature, and blood pressure.
Immune: activation, tumor suppression, cell rejuvenation.
Neurotoxins and Calcification
Toxins cause inflammation, reduce mental efficiency, and deregulate hormone production. Sleep disorders, depression, and neurodegeneration (e.g. Alzheimer’s) are all associated with calcification of the pineal gland.
Deposits of chalky calcium restrict the gland, reduce its size, and impede the production of neuro-endocrine substances. The pattern of pineal calcification is similar to teeth-enamel, and fluoridation (water and toothpaste) is linked to the destruction of this enigmatic gland.
Detoxification, Relaxation, and Nutrition
Chronic inflammation causes calcification. Reducing exposure to inflammatory neurotoxins begins to restore the correct mineral balance, and decalcify the pineal gland:
Fluoride: highest concentration in the body found in calcified tissue in the pineal gland.
Chlorine: public water is bleached with chlorine, associated with neurological birth defects.
Aluminum: leaches from pots, pans, and foil, associated with plaques seen in Alzheimer’s.
Sugar & chemical sweeteners: over-stimulate and damage neurons, reduce dopamine.
MSG & derivatives: confusingly labeled, many processed foods include this neurotoxin.
Endotoxins: bad bacteria in the gut produce toxins that inflame the gut and brain.
Stress: prolonged fear is toxic, causes the amygdala to shrink, and emotional fatigue.
The next step is supporting the brain to clear the waste and rejuvenate:
Sleep: at night the brain is ‘washed’ clean, detoxified, and replenished with nutrients.
Hydration: to bathe the brain and pineal gland you need to keep fluids flowing.
Meditation: like exercise for the brain, rewires, and strengthens your emotional health.
Berries (except cranberry): reduce free radical damage and nourish with flavonoids.
Coconut oil: alternative fuel for the brain which produces less oxidative damage.
Apples, seeded grapes & prunes: are high in boron which naturally displaces fluoride.
Tamarind: increases fluoride output in urine, helps retain zinc and magnesium. Fresh organic tamarind pulp or paste is easily mixed with water into a sweet and sour flavored drink, add a little agave if the taste is too lip-puckering!

How to Grow Your Nail Fast
Tumblr media
Introduction
Understanding Nail Growth
Nail growth might seem like a simple biological process, but it's influenced by various factors. Learning how to support and accelerate nail growth requires understanding the fundamentals of nail health and the mechanisms behind their growth.
Proper Nail Care
Maintain Hydration
Proper hydration isn't just beneficial for your skin; it's crucial for nail health too. Dehydrated nails are prone to brittleness and breakage, hindering growth. Ensure you're drinking enough water throughout the day to keep your nails hydrated from within.
Balanced Diet
Nails, like any other part of your body, require essential nutrients to grow strong and healthy. Incorporate a balanced diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and proteins. Foods like leafy greens, eggs, nuts, and fish can provide the necessary nutrients for optimal nail growth.
Tumblr media
Avoid Harsh Chemicals
Exposure to harsh chemicals, such as those found in detergents and cleaning agents, can weaken nails and slow down growth. Wear gloves when handling such substances to protect your nails from damage.
Protective Measures
Keep Nails Trimmed
Contrary to popular belief, keeping your nails trimmed actually promotes faster growth. Regular trimming prevents split ends and breakage, allowing your nails to grow longer without the risk of damage.
Wear Gloves
Whether you're doing household chores or working outdoors, wearing gloves can shield your nails from potential harm. They act as a barrier against chemicals, harsh weather conditions, and physical trauma, safeguarding your nails and promoting healthy growth.
Nutritional Supplements
Biotin
Biotin, also known as vitamin B7, is renowned for its role in promoting healthy hair and nails. Consider taking biotin supplements or incorporating biotin-rich foods like eggs, almonds, and avocados into your diet to support nail growth.
Tumblr media
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is an antioxidant that aids in repairing damaged cells, including those in your nails. It promotes circulation to the nail bed, which can stimulate growth. You can find vitamin E in foods like spinach, broccoli, and almonds or opt for supplements.
Moisturizing Treatments
Jojoba Oil
Jojoba oil is a natural moisturizer that can penetrate deep into the nail bed, nourishing and strengthening the nails from within. Massage a few drops of jojoba oil onto your nails and cuticles daily to keep them hydrated and promote faster growth.
Shea Butter
Shea butter is rich in vitamins A and E, as well as fatty acids, making it an excellent moisturizer for nails and cuticles. Apply shea butter directly to your nails before bedtime and let it absorb overnight for maximum hydration and growth benefits.
Avoiding Nail Damage
Limiting Exposure to Water
Excessive exposure to water, especially hot water, can weaken nails and make them more prone to breakage. Wear gloves while washing dishes or cleaning, and try to minimize the time your nails spend submerged in water to maintain their strength and integrity.
Tumblr media
Gentle Nail Care Practices
Avoid using your nails as tools for tasks like opening cans or scraping off stickers, as this can cause damage and hinder growth. Instead, use proper tools and techniques to protect your nails from unnecessary stress and trauma.
you can also try this product ProNail Complex
Massage Techniques
Stimulating Blood Flow
Massaging your nails and cuticles can improve blood circulation to the nail bed, delivering essential nutrients and oxygen for faster growth. Use gentle, circular motions to massage a nourishing oil or cream into your nails daily for optimal results.
Promoting Nail Growth
In addition to enhancing blood flow, nail massage can also stimulate the production of keratin, the protein responsible for nail growth. Incorporate massage into your daily nail care routine to encourage stronger, longer nails.
Herbal Remedies
Horsetail Extract
Horsetail extract is rich in silica, a mineral essential for collagen formation and nail strength. Taking horsetail supplements or using products containing horsetail extract can fortify your nails and promote faster growth.
Aloe Vera Gel
Aloe vera gel is well-known for its soothing and healing properties, making it ideal for treating brittle nails and stimulating growth. Apply fresh aloe vera gel to your nails and cuticles regularly to nourish and strengthen them from the inside out.
Patience and Consistency
Setting Realistic Expectations
While implementing these tips can accelerate nail growth, it's important to remember that nails grow slowly, typically around 1-3 millimeters per month. Be patient and consistent with your nail care routine, and you'll gradually see improvements in the health and length of your nails.
you can also try this product ProNail Complex
Establishing a Routine
Consistency is key when it comes to promoting nail growth. Establish a daily or weekly nail care routine that includes moisturizing, trimming, and protective measures to ensure optimal nail health and growth over time.
Tumblr media
Professional Help
Consulting a Dermatologist
If you're experiencing persistent nail problems or slow growth despite following a healthy nail care routine, consider consulting a dermatologist. They can identify underlying issues and recommend specialized treatments or medications to address your specific concerns.
Nail Strengthening Treatments
In some cases, professional nail strengthening treatments may be necessary to promote faster growth and improve the overall health of your nails. These treatments often involve specialized formulas or procedures designed to fortify and protect the nails from damage.
Conclusion
Summary of Tips
