Day 5 of My No Processed Foods Challenge 🌿 — Healing Herbs, Spices & Whole-Food Satiety
Tonight’s dish: Moroccan-spiced shrimp with tomatoes, onions, red pepper, mushrooms, olives, yogurt, and roasted sweet potatoes.
This meal is loaded with flavor — but even more importantly, it’s filled with healing herbs, spices, and nutrient-dense whole foods that support digestion, metabolism, reduced inflammation, and overall vitality.
Here’s what the herbs + spices bring to the table:
🌿 Cumin
Supports digestion, reduces bloating, and helps the body break down food efficiently — which naturally improves satiety and how satisfied you feel after meals.
🌿 Coriander
Calming for the digestive system and supportive of detoxification pathways. Its phytonutrients help reduce inflammation and encourage healthy hormone signaling.
🌿 Cinnamon
One of the best spices for maintaining stable blood sugar — and stable blood sugar means fewer cravings and more balanced hunger signals throughout the day.
🌿 Turmeric
Anti-inflammatory and supportive for the brain, joints, and gut. A healthier gut environment helps regulate hunger hormones more effectively.
🌿 Garlic
Immune-boosting and great for heart + gut health. A well-supported gut helps signal fullness more clearly to the brain.
🌶 Smoked Paprika
Rich in antioxidants that support metabolic health and overall cellular protection.
