Did you know?

Papaya isn’t just delicious—it’s a natural digestive superhero

Thanks to an enzyme called papain, this tropical fruit can speed up digestion in under 30 minutes. That same enzyme is so powerful, it’s even used to tenderize meat

Next time you want to support your digestion or soften up your cooking, reach for some papaya goodness. Your gut will thank you!

Think oat milk is the healthy choice? You might want to check the label…

Many brands pack in 7–10g of added sugar per cup — that’s more than a scoop of ice cream 🍦 and can spike your blood sugar fast.

✨ If you’re choosing oat milk:
✔️ Go for unsweetened
✔️ Pair it with a healthy fat (like chia seeds or nut butter)
✔️ Or try lower-sugar swaps like coconut or cashew milk

30g of protein — but at what cost?

4 oz of cooked salmon:
✅ 30g protein
✅ 230 calories
✅ 0g carbs

3.5 cups of cooked white rice:
⚠️ 30g protein
⚠️ 910 calories
⚠️ 200g carbs

Not all protein is created equal.
Animal protein like salmon is complete, bioavailable, and doesn’t spike your blood sugar.
Choose nutrient density, not just volume. 💪

Don’t sleep on this super-fat fruit!
