7 Plant-based Protein to Lower Cholesterol (7 種降低膽固醇的植物性蛋白質)

Yesterday we talked about how cholesterol comes from animal protein. If you do have high cholesterol, it doesn’t mean you need to become a vegan or anything. You can start with a Meatless Monday and slowly incorporate some more plant based protein in your diet. Even just eating 50% can make a world of a difference in lowering cholesterol and improving heart health. Adding the right plant-based proteins can help reduce LDL (“bad”) cholesterol while keeping you full and energized!
Here are 7 powerful, cholesterol-lowering plant-based proteins:
1️⃣ Chia Seeds
2️⃣ Legumes (Beans and Lentils)
3️⃣ Organic Tofu
4️⃣ Quinoa
5️⃣ Nuts
6️⃣ Organic Edamame
7️⃣ Organic Tempeh
These foods are packed with nutrients, fiber, and healthy fats to support your heart health. 🥗💚

昨天我提到膽固醇是從動物性蛋白質的。如果您確實患有高膽固醇, 並不意味著您需要成為素食主義者。您可以從週一無肉開始, 然後慢慢在飲食中加入更多植物性蛋白質。即使只吃 50% 的飲食含有素蛋白,在降低膽固醇和改善心臟健康方面也會產生巨大的影響。
添加盡量少加工的植物蛋白有助於降低低密度脂蛋白(「壞」)膽固醇,同時讓您保持飽腹感和活力!
以下是 7 種強效降低膽固醇的植物性蛋白質:
1️⃣ 奇亞籽
2️⃣ 豆類(黃豆、扁豆)
3️⃣ 豆腐
4️⃣ 藜麥
5️⃣ 堅果
6️⃣ 毛豆
7️⃣ 天貝
這些食物富含營養素、纖維和健康脂肪,可支持您的心臟健康。 🥗💚

Vegan Korean Lentils Bulgogi 韓國扁豆素燒烤

Ingredients (4 servings):
4-6 cups cooked brown rice (cauliflower rice for low carb option)
4 cups steamed broccoli
2 cups purple cabbage
2 cups cucumber
2 tbs of sliced scallions
2 tbs of toasted sesame seeds
1 cup of low sodium kimchi

For the Sauce:
2 tbs toasted sesame oil
4 cloves garlic minced
2 tbs fresh ginger minced
¼ cup brown sugar packed
¼ cup low sodium soy sauce (use tamari for gluten-free)
1/4-1/2 tsp crushed red chili pepper flakes or to taste
1/2-1 tsp ground black pepper or to taste

For the Mushrooms:
1-2 tbsp sesame oil
12-16 oz shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced (about 4-5 cups)
2 ½ cups cooked green or brown lentils, drained and rinsed

Directions:
1. In a small bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the sauce.
2. In wide cast iron skillet or heavy bottomed pan, heat 1 tbs of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add in the sliced mushrooms. If you don’t have a wide pan, work in batches. Let them cook for 3-5 minutes before stirring. Stir, then leave them for another 3 minutes and repeat one more time or until the mushrooms are seared and cooked through.
3. Add in the sauce, scraping the bottom to get any bits that have stuck. Stir in the drained lentils, reduce heat to medium-low and let simmer until the sauce is reduced and the lentils start to stick a bit, about 5 minutes. Stir only as necessary so you don’t mash the lentils.
4. Serve over hot brown rice, side of steamed broccoli, sliced green onions, cucumber, purple cabbage, kimchi and toasted sesame seeds if desired.

Legacy Tribe Meetup Takeaways

Got a ton of value from the Legacy Tribe meetup this past Saturday. So good to connect and learn from so many amazing speakers, network with some like-minded entrepreneurs, and enjoy some fun team-building games. We also presented Bedros a gift of something he describes on his podcast all the time: A gelatinous pear-shaped person who lies on the couch all day with Cheetos dust in his belly button. 😂😂
Top 12 takeaways:
-The importance of having different systems in place for both business and personal life (Sales & Marketing, Business meeting, Feedback, Network, Life meeting, Health, and Volunteer)
-Run Your family like a business: written core values, daily debriefs, weekly/monthly/quarterly/annual planning planning (Co-Create, Co-Elevate, Co-Operate, Co-Dominate)
-Formula to Happiness = Money + Meaning + Mastery of yourself
-Reverse engineer the desired outcome: Happiness <–Actions <–Beliefs <–Thoughts <–Input (Food, people around you, information you receive)
-Our Frequency is what we Frequently See
-God is a great personal trainer: He gives us resistance to grow and achieve mastery
-Our energy is our edge. We can’t compete with computer/AI for competency, but our energy/vibe is what makes us stand out.
-Energy is expensive. Less excess energy effort, more energy alignment.
-It is always better to be someone’s shot of whiskey than everyone’s cup of tea.
-3 rules of Leadership:
A) Lead yourself
B) Lead others
C) Lead always
-Never make a decision until you have to (don’t be driven by emotion)
-70/30 rule from General Colin Powell:
Need to gather at least 30% info, and make decision before you reach 70%.
