welcome this morning out to the public's
kitchen it is a hot one all the more
reason to be healthy to make those good
choices and a lot of people hear about
the vegan diet I've heard about it for
years and often times we say that's too
much for me I don't think that I can do
it so this morning we brought in Jack's
vegan couple Sephora obaid Osmani and
you guys are here to tell us about the
simple steps that you have been able to
use to actually make it not just a
choice but a lifestyle absolutely thank
you for having us on the air Vick well
bed and Sephora Jack's vegan couple we
love Jacksonville we're here to share
with you all the super super fruits and
vegetables for today rainbow-colored
what to put in a salad though the via
the jacks vegan couple named you Valdez
because we moved to Jacksonville from
Chicago okay we live in Jacksonville and
we are vegan so that's how the name
evolved is Jack's vegan couple okay I
love it alright let's talk about this
spread here because it is all about the
different colors and it's about being
fresh right I mean you got to stick with
those veggies absolutely so a simple
acronym is G bombs G for greens B for
beans and we have a man wall for onions
berries and seeds okay so those are the
main items that you want to have on your
menu because one of the reason because
if the G bomb says it has lot of
phytonutrients those that have
micronutrients and that's very healthy
for you okay so let's talk about
converting over because I asked both of
you did eat meat before right so this
isn't you know anything that you've been
doing your whole life so you made the
switch just like other people are doing
every day
absolutely why so one of the reason is
both of my parents died of common
diseases like heart disease and stroke
okay and I have a book called hundred
and one religions of the world
okay the common denominator in every
religion is let food be thy medicine so
I went to the CDC central of Disease
Control the number one disease is heart
disease and cancer so I thought how can
we eliminate it if I am going to inherit
the same genes as my parents what can I
do in order to switch that so welcome
that
so when I did the research from lot of
you know plant-based doctors in
everything I read thousands and
thousands of testimonials people who
have changed their lifestyle how they
got rid of common diseases so that's
made us evolve to that diet healthier
eating yes absolutely so I love it over
here because breakfast is a meal that so
many of us struggle for because we run
out the door nobody has time anymore and
there are some simple things that you
can do I mean smoothies are one thing
that you can do but you can also mess
them up right with too much artificial
sugar and ingredients right so in our
smoothies the base always our greens Vic
start with the greens and then you add
any fruit or vegetable of choice some
seeds some avocado for some fresh
healthy fats we always add some dates
and figs blueberries strawberries we add
a piece of ginger for you know health
benefits goes in the blender overnight
blended put in a jar you're ready to get
up on Sunday when you do the meal prep
you can already prepare this a week
ahead in advance it just goes in the
fridge and then you know you all you can
do is just when you're leaving for work
just take a bottle you don't have to
worry about it when things get hectic
another easy thing real quickly is the
salad right that's a great way and you
said you want to do at least one salad a
day exactly that was me always the main
meal like you can that the salads has
fiber phytonutrients and so many
cruciferous vegetables that will help
you fight blood pressure cancer heart
disease so and so forth one at all well
