“Do you also avoid the seed oils: corn oil, soy oil, etc? What about excess sugar?”
Only use California Olive Ranch extra-virgin olive oil; Comes in a glass bottle, don’t want plastic. Good stuff. Sauté chicken thighs and Wild Caught Alaskan salmon in it. I steam little organic potatoes, serve them with olive oil on top, maybe parsley and fresh ground pepper too.
No sugar or honey. For desert, nonfat yogurt -Trader Joe has single serving black Raspberry, may have a little sugar, but yogurt has healthy probiotics in it.
Of course, other stores have yogurt too. Non-fat a little harder to find.
Don’t have a salt shaker and avoid anything that contains salt. Salad dressing is tricky, almost all are loaded with salt and yucky oils. Found one on AMZ that’s not perfect but OK
Ditto on only using California olive oil. Don’t trust the others. Many are adulterated and old, despite the fancy imported names and bottles. Sometimes we splurge and order a set of fresh-pressed oils from the olive oil club. Great flavor, but pricey.
