Recipe: Dr. Jiwani’s Roasted Turkey

(Low Carb Gluten-Free Dairy-Free Sugar-Free for Paleo Keto & Candida Diets)

 

Beyond Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving & other holidays usually require a featured entree, such as a Roasted Turkey. However, turkey is so lean & nutritious that it is viable to consider turkey in your rotation of daily meals. In fact, three ounces of turkey (85 grams), roughly the size of a cell phone, contains approximately 125 calories with 26 grams of protein. Turkey is chock full of B vitamins, Selenium, Zinc & Phosphorus. The dark meat of turkey actually has more nutrients, fat and calories.

 

Sleepy From Turkey? Not!

New research supports healthy diets to contain more fat and less carbs, so embrace that dark meat! Like all meats, turkey contains tryptophan, an essential amino acid that regulates mood, pain & sleep. A common myth is that turkey stimulates sleepiness from its tryptophan, when in fact it is really the excessive carbohydrates in the turkey dinners from potatoes, yams, stuffing & desserts that induce napping. Yes, I have been proving that for years with my full turkey dinner on my family.

 

Not All Turkeys Are Created Equal

The key is to avoid processed forms of turkey such as deli meats, hot dogs and turkey bacon, due to hidden allergens, salt & preservatives. Aim to purchase fresh pasture-raised turkey fed a natural diet of grain, vitamins and minerals without any antibiotics or animal by-products. Conventional turkeys are factory farmed, often injected with salt, water and preservatives. Pasture-raised turkeys tend to have more healthy omega-3 fats and more flavour than factory farmed turkeys.

 

Health Benefits of Turkey:

  • Less Allergenic than Beef
  • Dark Meat is More Nutritious
  • High Protein, Less Calories & Fat than Beef
  • B Vitamins: B1, B3 & B6 for Energy, Digestion, Immunity & Healthy Blood
  • Phosphorus: Bone & Teeth Building Mineral, Helps Protein, Carb & Fat Use in Body
  • Tryptophan: Essential Amino Acid for Optimal Mood, Sleep & Pain Regulation Hormones
  • Higher Protein: Increases Fullness, Stabilizes Insulin, Builds Muscle, Promotes Healthy Weight

 

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
