What is Functional Nutrition?

What is Functional Nutrition? 🥗✨
Functional nutrition is more than just eating healthy, it’s about understanding your body and giving it what it truly needs to heal and thrive. Instead of only managing symptoms, it focuses on finding the root cause of health issues and supporting the body through proper nutrition and lifestyle.
This approach changed the way I see health, not just as something to fix, but something to nurture daily with intention.
💬 Next week, I’ll be sharing my personal story and experience with Functional Nutrition and how it impacted my journey and why it matters more than ever.
If you’ve ever felt like something is missing in your health journey, this might be the shift you’ve been looking for. Stay tuned. 🌿

什麼是功能性營養？ 🥗✨
功能性營養不僅僅是健康飲食, 它更關乎了解你的身體, 並給予它真正需要的營養, 幫助它恢復健康。它並非僅僅關注症狀的緩解, 而是著重於找到健康問題的根源, 並透過合理的營養和生活方式來支持身體。
這種方法改變了我對健康的看法, 它不再只是需要修復的問題, 而是需要每天用心呵護的。
💬 下週，我將分享我個人關於功能性營養的故事和體驗，以及它如何影響了我的健康之旅，並闡述為什麼它現在比以往任何時候都更加重要。
如果你曾經覺得自己的健康旅程缺少了什麼，這或許正是你一直在尋找的轉變。敬請期待。 🌿

Growing up in HK, I was told by my parent that I need to eat animal proteins every day to get enough nutrition but that’s not entirely true. Too much animal proteins can actually strain your kidneys, especially if their function is already declining.
What really matters is balance: combining foods wisely and serving plant-based proteins such as beans, lentils, tofu, edamame, nuts and seeds im your meals along with some animal proteins or just replace animal proteins several times a week with plant based proteins. You don’t need meat at every meal to get enough nutrition, and your kidneys will thank you for it.

我在香港長大, 父母一直告訴我，我必須每天吃動物蛋白才能攝取足夠的營養, 但這並不完全正確。攝取過多的動物性蛋白質實際上會加重腎臟負擔, 尤其是如果腎功能已經正在衰退。
真正重要的是均衡飲食：合理搭配食物, 在日常飲食中加入一些植物蛋白, 例如豆類, 扁豆, 豆腐, 毛豆, 堅果和種子, 或每週用植物蛋白取代幾次動物蛋白。你不需要每餐都吃肉才能獲得足夠的營養, 你的腎臟也會感謝你的。

Fishballs or fish cakes in hot pot or noodle soups; spam, deli meat, and Vietnamese pork sausage in sandwiches; Chinese cured sausages or pork belly in clay pot rice or sticky rice… All of these may be common in many Asian households, but these ultra-processed foods are often high in sodium, chemicals, and added phosphorus, forcing your kidneys to work harder to filter them out over time, this extra strain can harm kidney health, so choosing fresher, less processed options more often is a simple way to protect your kidneys.

火鍋或麵條湯裡的魚丸或魚餅, 三明治裡的午餐肉, 熟食肉類和越南扎肉, 煲仔飯或糯米飯裡的臘腸或臘肉…這些在許多亞洲家庭中都很常見, 但這些高度加工食品通常鈉, 化學物質和添加磷含量很高, 會迫使腎臟更加努力地過濾這些物質。隨著時間的推移, 這種額外的負擔會損害腎臟健康。因此, 經常選擇更新鮮, 更少加工的食物是保護腎臟的簡單方法。

6 Small Habits That Create Big Life Shifts in 2026 (6個小習慣幫助您扭轉 2026年)

by | Jan 7, 2026 | ,

These habits aren’t just “nice-to-have”; they support the foundations of your health, energy, and longevity. By focusing on sleep, hydration, nutrition, movement, strength, and stress management, you’re giving your body and mind what they need to function at their best every day.
⏰ Set your alarm to start your bedtime routine: If you want to wake up early and get your workout in early, it starts with going to bed early the night before. So you just need to back track from the time you to start getting ready for bed. Turning off screens 1 hr before bed would also help. Going to bed on purpose improves sleep quality, recovery, and next-day energy.
💧 Drink at least 8 cups of water: Hydration supports digestion, focus, mood, reduce cravings, and detox. Prepare a water bottle with warm water the night before and put it on your night stand, you can start your day by sipping 2 cups of water before you even get out of bed.
🥗 Prioritize protein and fiber: This combo stabilizes blood sugar, supports muscle, optimize gut health, and keeps you full longer. Aim for at least 30g of proteins per meal, plan for at least 35g of fiber per day from fruits, veggies, legumes, and whole grains.
☀️ Sunlight exposure in the morning + Post-meal movement: Morning sunlight resets your internal clock, while short walks after meals support digestion and prevent insulin resistance, which is important for diabetes, but also for brain longevity by preventing Alzheimer’s and Dimentia.
🏋️‍♀️ Strength training at least 2–3x/week: Building muscle boosts metabolism, supports bone health, and makes everyday life feel easier. Even when you are just going for a walk, start wearing a weighted vest.
🧘‍♀️ Manage your stress (deep breathing, listening to spa music, using your massage gun/massage ball, Epsom salt bath, feet soak, humming, meditating, journaling, adult coloring, etc): Small calming rituals stimulate your vagus serve and signal safety to your nervous system and help your body recover.

這些習慣並非“錦上添花”, 它們支撐著您的健康, 活力和長壽。透過專注於睡眠, 水分補充, 營養, 運動, 肌力訓練和壓力管理, 您就能為身心提供所需的營養, 讓你每天都能發揮最佳狀態。
⏰ 設定鬧鐘開啟您的睡前程序：如果您想早起鍛煉，那就從前一天晚上早睡開始。您只需倒推一下準備睡覺的時間即可。睡前 1 小時關閉電子螢幕也很有幫助。有意識地按時睡覺可以提高睡眠品質, 促進恢復, 並提升第二天的精力。
💧 每天至少喝 8 杯水：充足的水分有助於消化, 專注, 改善情緒, 減少食慾和排毒。前一天晚上準備一瓶溫水放在床頭櫃上, 這樣您就可以在下床前先喝兩杯水, 開啟美好的一天。
🥗 優先攝取蛋白質和膳食纖維：這種組合可以穩定血糖, 保存或增加肌肉, 優化腸道健康, 並延長飽足感。每餐至少攝取 30 克蛋白質, 每天至少從水果, 蔬菜, 豆類和全穀物中攝取 35 克膳食纖維。
☀️ 早晨曬太陽 + 餐後活動：晨光可以重置你的生理時鐘, 而餐後短暫散步則有助於消化, 預防胰島素抗性。胰島素抗性不僅對糖尿病患者至關重要, 還能預防阿茲海默症和失智症, 以及延緩大腦老化。
🏋️‍♀️ 每週至少進行 2-3 次肌力訓練：增強肌肉可以促進新陳代謝, 維護骨骼健康, 並讓日常生活更加輕鬆。即使只是散步, 也可以嘗試穿上負重背心。

Lower Cholesterol by Dialing Down These Foods 減少食用以下食物可以降低膽固醇

by | Nov 16, 2025 |

Lowering cholesterol isn’t about giving up your favorite foods. It’s about being mindful of what shows up most often on your plate. Foods like fried dishes, processed meats, sugary treats, refined carbs, whole dairy products, and excess animal protein can raise LDL (“bad”) cholesterol and make it harder for your body to keep your heart in balance.
The good news? Small swaps can make a real difference. Try cooking with avocado oil instead of butter, adding whole grains such as oats or barley to breakfast, and choosing beans/lentils, tofu, fish, or seafood more often than red meat/animal protein. Consume plant-based or non-fat milk/yogurt. Fill your plate with fiber-rich vegetables and fresh fruit, and your heart and energy levels will thank you. 💛

降低膽固醇並非代表放棄你最愛的美食, 而是要留意你餐盤裡最常出現的食物。油炸食品, 加工肉類, 含糖零食, 精製碳水, 全脂乳製品, 以及過量的動物蛋白都會升高低密度脂蛋白膽固醇（「壞」膽固醇), 使你的心臟更難保持平衡。
好消息是, 一些小小的改變就能帶來顯著的效果。嘗試用牛油果油代替奶油烹飪, 早餐添加燕麥或大麥等全穀物, 並多選擇豆類/扁豆, 豆腐, 魚類或海鮮, 而不是紅肉/動物蛋白。飲用植物奶或脫脂牛奶/優格。多吃富含纖維的蔬菜和新鮮水果, 你的心臟和精力都會感謝你。 💛

The Shocking Link Between Animal Protein and Kidney Strain for CKD 對於腎衰竭的病人, 動物蛋白怎樣損害腎臟

by | Sep 21, 2025 |

What if the protein you’re eating is quietly overworking your kidneys?
Protein is essential, but not all proteins affect your body the same way. I was told growing up that I needed to eat animal protein every single day to get enough nutrition, and that’s not necessarily the case. The type you choose can either protect your kidneys or push them toward damage.
🔸Animal Proteins → Acid-forming, waste-producing, high in phosphorus, and loaded with fats & toxins that force your kidneys to work overtime.
🔸Plant Proteins → Easier on the kidneys, lower in phosphorus, create less waste, and are packed with antioxidants that protect both your heart and kidneys.
🔸Seafood Proteins → Lighter on digestion, rich in omega-3s that fight inflammation, and provide lean protein plus heart-healthy nutrients.
The truth is, too much protein of any kind can worsen kidney function, especially with CKD. That’s why balance matters.
Your daily choices can strengthen and protect your kidneys. The power really is in your plate.

您有否想過您攝取的蛋白質, 正在悄悄地加重腎臟負擔？
蛋白質是必需的, 但並非所有蛋白質都會同樣地影響您的身體。 在我年幼時, 父母告訴我, 我需要每天吃動物性蛋白質才能獲得足夠的營養, 但事實並非如此。
您選擇的蛋白質類型既可以保護您的腎臟, 也可以使其受損。
🔸動物蛋白 → 酸性, 易產生廢物, 高磷, 並且富含脂肪和毒素, 迫使腎臟超負荷工作。
🔸植物蛋白 → 更容易腎臟吸收, 磷含量更低, 產生的廢物更少, 並富含抗氧化劑, 可同時保護您的心臟和腎臟。
🔸海鮮蛋白 → 容易消化, 富含可抗發炎的 Omega-3 脂肪酸, 並提供瘦肉蛋白質和有益心臟健康的營養成分。
事實上, 任何種類的蛋白質, 攝取過量都會損害腎功能, 尤其是如果有慢性腎病 (CKD) 患者。因此, 均衡飲食至關重要。
您的日常選擇可以增強和保護您的腎臟。力量就在您的餐盤中。

High Cholesterol Might be Asymptomatic, but These Issues Could Be a Clue 高膽固醇可能無症狀, 但這些問題可能是個線索

by | Aug 9, 2025 | ,

High cholesterol is a silent threat, but your body might be dropping clues.
You might experience:
1) Chest pain during stress or physical activity.
2) Yellowish bumps near your eyes or joints could appear.
3) Sudden numbness, trouble speaking, or loss of balance are serious warning signs.
These symptoms may seem unrelated, but they could all point to one thing: dangerously HIGH CHOLESTEROL. The scariest part is that you might have no symptoms at all until it’s too late. Don’t wait for a heart attack or stroke to find out something was wrong.

The Hidden Cholesterol in Your Protein: Animal vs Plant Breakdown 蛋白質中隱藏的膽固醇: 動物 vs 植物蛋白質的分析

by | Jul 7, 2025 |

Animal or Plant-Based Protein — What’s Better for Your Heart?
Not all proteins are created equal. Animal proteins like meat, eggs, and other animal products contain cholesterol and saturated fat, which can raise your LDL (bad) cholesterol and increase heart disease risk. However, seafood stands out among animal proteins because it generally has less saturated fat than red meat and is rich in heart-healthy omega-3 fatty acids. When prepared healthily, seafood can help lower triglycerides and support overall cardiovascular health.
Plant-based proteins, on the other hand, are naturally cholesterol-free and low in saturated fat, making them a heart-smart choice. You don’t need to go fully vegan, but aiming for at least 50% plant-based protein, while including seafood regularly, is great for your heart.
We’ve created a simple guide showing the cholesterol and saturated fat content of common meats and seafood. Some numbers may surprise you!

動物性蛋白質還是植物性蛋白質－哪一種對心臟比較有益？
並非所有蛋白質都生來平等。肉類, 蛋類, 畫其他動物製品會升高您的低密度脂蛋白 (LDL 壞膽固醇) 水平, 增加心臟病的風險。然而, 海鮮在動物性蛋白質中脫穎而出, 因為它的飽和脂肪含量通常低於紅肉, 並且富含有益心臟健康的歐米伽-3脂肪酸。如果烹飪得當, 海鮮可以幫助降低三酸甘油酯, 並支持整體心血管健康。
另一方面, 植物性蛋白質天然不含膽固醇, 飽和脂肪含量低, 是有益心臟健康的選擇。您無需完全素食, 但攝取至少50%的植物蛋白, 並定期食用海鮮, 對心臟健康大有益處。
我們製作了一個簡單的指南, 列出了常見肉類和海鮮的膽固醇和飽和脂肪含量。有些數字可能會讓您大吃一驚！
