CROISSANT DIET. EAT THIS - DONT EAT THAT. Ep 5

Croissant diet - Eat this, don’t Eat that.

This is not meant to be a list of foods for optimal health. This is a list of foods that work in the Framework of The Croissant Diet invented by Brad Marshall. It’s based off of his observation of how the French ate in the late 60’s/early 70’s. They ate refined flour, butter, cheese, sugar, breads, pastries, dairy, meat, and wine, yet they remained lean, with very low incidence of heart disease.

I do feel there are tremendous health benefits to be obtained by eliminating commercial vegetable oils from your diet and eating a diet including healthy nutrient rich saturated fats. Namely losing a bunch of body fat, and reducing inflammation. Reducing damage to your cells, slowing and possibly revering disease.

** I’m not a doctor and this is not medical advice**

This list is not exhaustive but rather a good overview.

Now on with the TCD list.

EAT THIS:

Grass fed 85/15 or higher fat ground beef
Steak (ribeye has the most fat)
Tallow (beef fat) grass fed if possible
Grass fed butter
Heavy cream
Half and half
Roast beef
Sour cream
Cheese and other high fat dairy.
Pastured eggs, (better yet find them locally)
Ground Bison
Organ meats, liver, kidney, heart, suet (kidney fat) etc.
Lamb chops or any other lamb meat
Cocao butter
Ghee
Real cheese, any kind (not packaged slices)
Wild game any kind.
Wild caught seafood, shellfish.
Bone broth.

All butter croissants
Steele cut oats
Potatoes
Sweet potatoes
Rice
Pepperidge farm butter buns
A small amount of fruit juice, not from concentrate, no sweeteners added. (I had 2, 5oz servings a day.)
Vegetables any kind
Leafy vegetable are ok too
Pasta made with eggs the more the better.
Cheese Cake made with cream cheese, eggs, and sugar. (No vegetable oil)
High saturated fat Ice Cream
(make sure it’s made without vegetable oil)
Fruit Any Kind in moderation
Chocolate, make sure it’s made with cocoa butter and not vegetable oil.

Don’t go crazy with the sugar and flour. French deserts are literally less than half as sweet as fat Americans deserts, and they are made with healthy real butter.

DON’T EAT:

When in doubt repeat after me: “does it have added vegetable oils? If it does, don’t eat it”

Vegetable oils any kind: canola, corn, cotton seed, soybean, sunflower, safflower. Or any other seed pressed into an oil. I heard Dr. Kate Shanahan calls these the 3 C’s and 3 S’s.

Commercial fatty Pork - Bacon, sausage, ground pork, fatty pork chops. If you do eat it at all only make it a lean cut and remove all visible fat. Unless you buy it from fire brand meats. Special pigs raised to have a very low PUFA content.

Commercial fatty chicken or Turkey- chicken wings, any chicken with the skin on, dark meat, ground turkey, turkey sausage, turkey bacon. If you do eat it make it lean breast meat only

Processed food made with vegetable oils. Potato chips, tortilla chips, crackers, most snack foods and snack cakes. Store bought cookies, cakes, pies. Store bought baked good unless you know it was made with butter and not vegetable oil. Packaged meals and meal items labels need to be read thoroughly they are generally regarded as off the menu. What’s the total fat content, what’s the saturated fat content, subtract the two. Is the answer more than 1? Look at the ingredients for: vegetable oil. The 3 C’s and 3 S’s. Or any other hint at vegetable oil. You may see soy lecithin way down on the label as an emulsifier, this is ok. It does contain some poly and may not be the greatest thing but its ok for TCD. Don’t eat fried foods, unless they are cooked in beef tallow.

Peanut butter or any nut butter. Macadamia nuts in tiny amounts occasionally are ok.

Small Things that can improve results:

Eat carbs last in a meal

Ref: Dr. Michael Eades, https://youtu.be/qMO-5mq3crU 22:00

Leave carbs out of one protein and fat meal a day.

Eating out:

Eating out is tough and fraught with setbacks. Most servers are underpaid and overworked. If the food item says butter cake as an example and you ask, they will just usually say yes it’s real butter. They are busy, have other guests to tend to, they likely don’t know and don’t care about your newfound love for saturated fat lol. It’s basically a wild ass guess for them. Restaurants have margins, vegetable oil is one of the cheapest ingredients there is to make something more savory. They use it liberally. Choose ingredients you understand. At a Mexican place, make a bowl, ground beef, sour cream, cheddar cheese, some pico, or salsa maybe some lettuce or greens not soaked in any kind of dressing and be done with it. No chips sorry.

Remember Restaurants want to make profit. They don’t know PUFA is horrible, your part of a new in the know crowd. They will try to accommodate you, be nice and ask.
