What You Eat & When You Eat It Is Writing Your Future

We all eat.
We all breathe.
We all move.

The question is never if you eat — it’s what, when, and how often.

Because whether anyone told you or not, every time you eat you’re sending a signal to your body:

  • Heal or inflame

  • Stabilize or spike

  • Build strength or feed disease

And for decades, we’ve been lied to.

We were handed food pyramids that prioritized cheap grains over protein and real fats.
We were told “a calorie is a calorie.”
We were raised on cereal, juice, white bread, pasta, snacks, and soda — and then told:

“It’s just genetics.”

No.
A lot of this is blood sugar.

🍬 What High GI Foods Really Do Inside You

Quick breakdown:

  • Glycemic Index (GI) = how fast a food raises your blood sugar.

  • High GI foods (white bread, soda, candy, pastries, many boxed snacks) hit your bloodstream fast.

  • Low/Moderate GI foods (beans, lentils, oats, whole fruit, sweet potato, quinoa) release energy slower.

When you eat high GI foods all day:

  1. Blood sugar spikes sharply.

  2. Your pancreas pumps out insulin to clear that sugar.

  3. Excess sugar gets stored as fat (especially around the liver and belly).

  4. Over time, your cells become less responsive to insulin.

  5. That road leads toward insulin resistance, prediabetes, and chronic illness if nothing changes.

This is why people feel:

  • Tired after meals

  • Foggy in the afternoon

  • “Hangry” when they miss a snack

  • Inflamed, swollen, puffy, and stuck

It’s not just “getting older.”
It’s the chemistry of what you’re eating.

🧪 The Trap of Hyper-Processed Food

Modern food is engineered, not grown.

  • Sugar in the bread

  • Sugar in the sauce

  • Sugar in the yogurt

  • Sugar in the drink

Plus seed oils, additives, artificial colors, preservatives — all stacked on top of low-fiber, low-nutrient, fast-digesting carbs.

These foods:

  • Spike blood sugar

  • Increase inflammation

  • Stress the liver

  • Confuse your hormones

  • Burn out your energy

And then?

We’re handed prescriptions and told:

“Just take this and watch your sugar.”

But almost no one says:

  • “Let’s talk about breakfast.”

  • “Let’s look at what you’re eating at night.”

  • “Let’s match your carbs to your movement.”

That’s why I wrote:
What to Eat & When to Eat It.

Because people deserve simple, clear guidance that explains:

  • Which foods stabilize blood sugar

  • Which foods secretly spike it

  • How to pair protein, fats, and carbs

  • How to time meals around movement

  • How to build a way of eating that feels human, not prison

🥗 Your New Baseline: Protein, Fats, and Smarter Carbs

Here’s the foundation I teach:

1. Aim for ~30% of your calories from protein

Protein:

  • Stabilizes blood sugar

  • Keeps you full

  • Builds and protects muscle

  • Supports hormones, hair, skin, nails, and immune health

Think:

  • Eggs, chicken, turkey

  • Grass-fed beef in reasonable portions

  • Greek yogurt, cottage cheese (if tolerated)

  • Salmon, sardines, white fish

  • Lentils, beans, tofu/tempeh (for plant-based)

2. Use healthy fats like a tool, not a villain

Good fats:

  • Support brain function

  • Balance hormones

  • Improve absorption of fat-soluble vitamins

Think:

  • Avocado

  • Olive oil

  • Nuts & seeds

  • Grass-fed butter in moderation

3. Shift from simple to complex carbs

You don’t need to “fear carbs.”
You need to understand them.

  • Simple carbs: soda, candy, pastries, juice, white bread, ultra-processed snacks

    • Fast spike, fast crash.

  • Complex carbs: beans, lentils, chickpeas, sweet potatoes, quinoa, oats, fruit with fiber

    • Slower release, more fiber, more nutrients.

Now imagine this:

  • You train your body a few times a week.

  • You eat most of your carbs around your workouts or your most active part of the day.

  • You anchor your meals with protein, veggies, and healthy fats.

Suddenly…

  • Your energy stabilizes

  • Your cravings calm down

  • Your body starts using carbs instead of being drowned by them

  • Blood sugar has a chance to normalize over time

That’s what What to Eat & When to Eat It is designed to walk you through, step by step.

🧭 Why Timing Matters (Not Just What You Eat)

Two simple examples:

  1. High-carb dinner + no movement after

    • Blood sugar spikes

    • You go to bed with elevated glucose

    • Poor sleep, more inflammation, fat storage over time

  2. Balanced meal + walk or workout within a few hours

    • Muscles soak up glucose

    • Blood sugar rises less and clears faster

    • Your body learns to use food instead of store it

You don’t need to become a scientist.
You just need a map.

A map for real families, real bodies, real lives.

💬 Reflection Questions

Take a moment with these:

  1. What does a normal day of eating look like for you right now?

  2. Where do you see obvious sugar, and where might “hidden sugar” be sneaking in?

  3. How often do you feel tired, foggy, or heavy after meals?

  4. What would it be worth to you to feel clear and stable in your body most days?

Journal a few lines. Clarity always comes before change.

🧠 Quote to Sit With

“What you’re not changing, you’re choosing.”
