Live Disease Free Holiday Meal Ideas

As holiday season is almost here, the Live Disease team wants you to enjoy delicious food without having a setback in your health.

This post will review important Live Disease Free Diet guidelines and share many of our favorite holiday drinks, appies and meal ideas so that you’ll be prepared to have a tasty and healthy holiday season with your loved ones.

Parasites eat various foods, but their favourite foods are carbohydrates and simple sugars. As we intentionally reduce the carbs and sugars while adding lots of flavour to many low carb foods, we can enjoy increased energy and mental clarity while avoiding unwanted weight gain and symptom flair-ups.

The key is to plan ahead and have many healthy and delicious options on hand. It’s also important to have a clear vision of your health goals, why you must succeed and what you intend to accomplish when you get your health back. This will motivate you and keep you on track until the cravings subside. As you begin to notice big symptom improvements and no longer have cravings for sugar, you will also notice your tastebuds change and you won’t want to go back to old, unhealthy habits. You will love this new way of eating and your new lease on life.

In supporting hundreds of students in over 15 countries around the world, we have discovered that the biggest cause of all chronic disease is a parasitic infestation. The Live Disease Free Diet is the first step to recovery from parasites and disease. By decreasing the food to the parasites, they become less active and produce less toxins. We notice a significant decrease in inflammation, which results in many symptom improvements.

When you know the Live Disease Free Diet guidelines, you can find any recipe online and make changes to it so that it is compliant. Do a Google search for a specific recipe and look for ones with many excellent reviews. Pick a recipe that will require minimal modifications.

Holiday Drinks

Alcohol is a carcinogen that our liver must break down. Disease-causing bacteria and fungi are massive producers of alcohol. If we suffer from chronic disease and a parasitic infestation, it’s important to avoid all alcohol as it adds a greater burden to our liver and overall health.

It is also important to avoid all sweet drinks, as the sugars will feed parasites.

Caffeine should also be avoided because it will stimulate us, but also the parasites.

Considering the above, there still are many wonderful drinks we can enjoy that will not compromise our health:

1. Sparkling Water

Unflavored and unsweetened sparkling water with fresh lemon or lime juice, or fresh mint. Popular bands: San Pellegrino, Perrier.

Flavored and unsweetened sparkling water like LeCroix, Bubbly and others. Fresh lemon or lime juice can be added for more flavor.

2. Caffeine free herbal teas (not decaffeinated). Organic is best.

Popular options: Tega (Earl gray), peppermint, spearmint, chamomile, lemon ginger, rooibos tea. The tea should not taste sweet.

Avoid decaffeinated coffees and teas as they still contain small amounts of caffeine.

Condiments, Dips and Sauces

1. Mayonnaise

Make a batch of homemade mayonnaise and use it to make a herb vegetable dip, a spicy mayo dip for meat or a creamy Caesar salad dressing. The basic mayonnaise recipe will include egg yolks, extra-virgin cold pressed organic olive oil or avocado oil, lemon or lime juice, apple cider vinegar and salt and pepper.

Lisa’s Homemade Mayo (our students’ favorite):

1 cup avocado oil
1 egg raw
1/4 tsp dry ground mustard
1-2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
Salt and pepper to taste

Combine all ingredients and mix for 30 seconds with an immersion blender (stick blender) and voila! homemade mayo! Store in the fridge for up to one week. You can also add different spices to make creamy dressings too. Garlic and herb to make ranch, chipotle spice to make chipotle dressing, garlic and lemon for caesar. The options are endless!

Variations:

i) Vegetable dip – basic recipe mayonnaise, raw grated or finely chopped garlic, herbs, salt and pepper to taste.

ii) Basic spicy mayo – basic recipe mayonnaise, unsweetened red pepper sauce, fresh lime juice, fresh grated ginger and garlic, a small amount of sesame oil and salt and pepper to taste.

For the following recipe substitute sriracha sauce for red pepper chili sauce that doesn’t contain sugar or vinegar.

iii) Caesar salad dressing – basic mayo, fresh finely chopped garlic, salt, pepper, anchovy paste, apple cider vinegar. Omit the croutons and cheese.

2. Homemade guacamole

Ingredients include fresh mashed avocados, finely chopped or grated raw garlic, fresh cilantro, salt, pepper and lime juice to taste. Caution as avocados are high in fat but also higher in carbs. Have a small serving of guacamole until fully recovered from parasites.

3. Chimichurri is a delicious flavorful sauce that can be added to different types of meats.

Meals

Tips

• Rely on flavor from herbs, spices, lemon or lime zest. Use fresh whenever possible.
• Use a mortar and pestle to crush herbs like fennel and coriander. Roast them first for extra flavor.
• Herbamare is a wonderful seasoning salt.
• Choose sauces that have fat, not carbs or dairy – ie. chimichurri.

Click Here to see our holiday blog for some recipe ideas to go along with an oven roasted turkey or another type of meat like brisket, beef or pork roast:

1. Crispy prosciutto-wrapped asparagus
2. Oven roasted carrots with thyme
3. Lemon ginger broccoli
4. Creamy mashed cauliflower
5. Roasted brussels sprouts
6. Colorful kale salad

Avoid processed meats like ham, bacon and sausage as they most often contain sugar.

Avoid eating large amounts of meat at one time. Eating too much meat at one time will be converted to glucose and increase the blood sugar level which will feed the parasites throughout the body and increase symptoms.

We hope that these holiday meal ideas will allow you continue to enjoy delicious food while helping you to start feeling better so that you can start the new year with better health.

From all of us at Live Disease Free, we wish you a blessed Christmas and all the best in the new year. By treating the parasites, you can make this next year the best year you’ve had in many years! We want you to get back to doing all the things you love to do. We are here to support you. 🙂
