Hi, put your spinach in a blendler add to eggs pinch of salt & pepper and blend. Put olive oil in pan on low eat, pour it in the pan & you've got a spinach wrap.
Great tip about storing the spinach. I love veggies but eat too many carbs. I don't think I could ever give up dairy (I love cheese and cream too much), so I might try the keto. Thanks for all the info!
Well Martin I did this for my tea and can certainly say I enjoyed it I was tempted to use some salt as was a little bland but I kept to your instructions so thanks for sharing this Richard
Keep up the good work. I have Type 2 and it cost me all of the toes on my left foot. After seven months I'm almost fully recovered. Not fun! Hang in there.
Please don't go 😢Martin only just discovered your channel, you and your lovely wife are top people the butlersempire is now 1 of my favourites the benidorm one's where ao informative as we are going soon once again my friend please stay where you are 👌
Fantastic. Dr Robert Lustig did some brilliant work on this. You practically sound just like him. I think that I will give it a try by watching what you prepared. Thanks a lot 😊
Thanks so much for sharing this with us... Nothing like Maggie liquid seasoning on your omelette, being of Dutch decent...we use this in so many of our foods it's even great with soups and or bone broth. Cheers from Australia
I agree I’d advise no body to have there gallbladder out, without looking at all options first. I was on some indigestion medication for over 5 years, they worked great at the start but after the longer period I had many adverse effects couldn’t eat fatty foods if I did the pain I had was awful and it would last for a few hours. The medication was hell to get off heartburn like you wouldn’t believe, but I did manage in the end to ween myself off of them then the symptoms gradually went away. 3 years on I rarely get heartburn I thought I’d be on the pills for life, so pleased I got off them. We are trying to eat better to lose some weight I think I’ve lost about 3 pounds, I’m looking at it as a slow process I’m in no rush. To much dairy make me ache to, I love the almond milk👍, Glad your feeling better Good video🙂👍
That omelette looks lovely. But I'm with Sharon: cheese. I LOVE cheese! Is there such a thing as dairy-free cheese?? Vegan cheese maybe? Be going out to get some spinach today (He wants a spinach, sweet pot&chickpea curry....we'll I'll convince he wants it 😉!)
I stopped eating meat in 2015 and don't miss it at all. Some friends told me that I shouldn't cut meat out entirely for my body needs red meat which provides us with iron, zinc and B vitamins. Well, I take plenty of vitamins including B12 every morning and have been doing so well before I stopped eating meat. I'll add that just to be on the safe side, I went to see my doctor for his advice when I told him that I had the intention of cutting out meat from my diet. He didn't seem worried at all, telling me that more and more people are cutting down on their meat consumption, as he and his wife were, only having meat on Sundays for that's when they usually had family and friends over for a meal. And added, that because they didn't eat meat during the week, hence saving money, they could afford to buy better cuts of meat directly from their butcher so knew where the meat was coming from. I'm not a fan of dairy so stopped eating butter, cream, yogurt and I don't take milk either in my tea or coffee. I will occasionally eat cheese but only but it in if I'm having friends over for dinner or staying with me; I live in France and serving a platter of cheese after the main course and not after the dessert, is almost a must. In fact, that's the only time I'll have cheese and when my staying guests leave and I have cheese left, I hand it in to my neighbour's. I do eat fish for it makes it easier for my friends if they invite me for dinner but at home I don't buy it. Now, when family or friends come round for dinner or for a visit of a few days, I only cook vegetarian meals: vegetarian cottage pie or vegetarian curries that sort of thing, they love it and have even asked for my recipes so if by doing that they eat less meat, that's a good thing, right? Good luck to you both for taking your health in hand and sharing with us your experiences and recipes.
This is just what I need to know. The nhs nutritionist who video linked me from Northern France where she lives!!!! And she just told me to eat more vegetables. Seriously that was it. She told me to go on an app and record my diet. I’ve got no time for that. So This video series is soooo helpful. Diagnosed with prediabetes even though I’m skinny and told off for being underweight! 🤷♀️ I need some support so ButlersEmpire to the rescue! But vegetarian? Will have to watch the lean meat videos too as I’ve been told to eat meat to put on weight but manage diabetes. Less carbs more protein. Thanks v much for this video support. Thanks also for explaining diabetes so well. Again the nutritionist nor dr explained it at all 🤦♀️
I don't know of any one who has Diabetes type 2 who gets better under the NHS taking their medication. It masks the problem but eating the correct diet, can reverse it.
I'm off to the GP this week to have my NHS Health Check....not too hopeful. Probably end up with Statins. Very likely be told I'm 'Overweight' (take something from that: this time last year I'd have been 'Obese'!). Hoping the weight's not crept back on (lost 21lb last year). But my biggest fear: Diabetes. Not confident. Have had lots of symptoms. But difference between mine and yours Martin is that so many of the diabetes symptoms mirror those of Menopausal symptoms 😉 Sometimes think could be thyroid-related (fact: I'm a self-diagnoser and never really been ill so haven't been to a GP for yonks). Gunna watch all your vids in this series as I don't want meds. Would try my hardest to control blood sugars with diet first. (I'm really not bloody hopeful am I?!!) I blame too things for me falling (rolling!!) off the wagon: losing my willpower over Christmas (eating more carbs) and - this is really controversial - playing with my new toy, my Cosori Air Fryer!!!! Who wouldn't have tried to make roast spuds and chips? I am going to research nice stuff I can cook in it that aren't carbs. Our son swears by Keto. Tried it a while back but I struggle to eat lots of fat, even good ones. But that's the route I'll go. My love of cheese will be satiated! Never connected dairy with my joint pain. Dropped it as a teenager as aside from cheese, milky stuff makes me snotty👃!! (Sorry: I'm Queen of TMI😆!). Love the vids. Think I'm gunna love this 'series'. Thanks for sharing all this
Statins 1. Diabetes 0!!! Never thought I'd be so relieved to just come away from a NHS Health Check needing only statins....like every other 60-something will be prescribed very soon! Massive relief on tbe Diabetes-front, but think we've been inspired by Martin's low carb meals. Way to go for us 👍
Excellent video. Appreciate the tips and will give it a go. 49 and definitely feeling the aches and pains in the morning. You look like a different man Martin in your recent videos.
Fair play to you both I’m going to have trouble cooking a omelette at 1-30pm out in the work van😂 Also if you need any advice on eggs you know who to ask 😂 Right I’m off my pizza’s done
This information is great my hubby has diabetes and I just want to lose some weight, as I’ve told you before I have cancer and before all my treatment I went from a size 18 to a size 10 and the drs told me I have got to eat more to put on weight, nothing was banned But now the weight has come back too much and I don’t like it, so I want to lose weight weight but at a good rate so the drs don’t lecture me. So I think the keto diet might be good for the both of us ❤❤❤❤l
Wait. I didn't know that cream doesn't have lactose. Now I'm having second thoughts. I put table cream in my coffee, which is half and half. Maybe I should just do cream.
Looks very tasty. How did you put that pan under the grill without melting the handle. Hehe.. great you had got your HBA1C down from such high figures. Well done. I think the person that told you type 2 is for life was a bit wrong type 2 can be controlled with a good diet, type 1 is not reversible. There is a channel I watch Dr Ken Berry in America along with his wife who also has a food channel that promotes keto diets. Interesting to listen to. They mainly just eat fats and ithis would be bacon eggs steak, cream with lots of things including drinks made with cream and even a knob of butter on your tea. Not sure I fancy that. However they have both lost loads of weight. You can definitely learn a lot from him. Having been a nurse myself before I retired, I find it of great interest, how things are in America to how they are here. Their outlook very different to ours. Hope Sharon’s injury’s are better. A pack of peas then something warm on swelling is great. Thanks corvsharing
A boy in work is on the fasting diet and you should see how much weight he has lost. I don't like tomatoes or mushrooms so what other things would you put in the omelette.
In the case of Chinese food, the problem, also, is the MSG they use in the preparation. A flavour enhancer that makes you keep wanting to eat much more than you need and always leaves you hungry, sometimes hungrier, after. Pretty sure they use it, these days, in KFC, never fills you, but of course you've had your portion. For example,, if you went to a genuine Thai restaurant, you'll notice the difference straight away, compared to Chinese, no bloating, always fresh, tastes miles better, done correctly, very healthy 👍
Oh no I don’t like vegetarian or keto recipes.. I understand it’s for your health but I have cancer and been told to keep my weight up as I lost too much in the beginning so I can’t afford to lose any more. Will definitely try your older videos though but not these ones xx
Hi Martin have you got more information on the keto diet cos there’s no way hubby will go vegetarian he loves his meat too much . I have tried in the past to slip in a vegetarian meal and he just complained about the missing meat❤
I heard this on radio Lincolnshire yesterday and have subscribed. Dairy is renowned for inflammation and mucus in the body so cutting it out will reduce aches and pains. I love your enthusiasm but find Sharon so negative and sarcastic towards this change in diet.
Thank you but Sharon is not negative and sarcastic towards the change in diet, she doesn't like being on the camera and its just a bit of banter we have.
It's funny I should see this video (missed the first part, will watch after), but I started a Very Low Calorie Diet (a Keto one) last Monday. Lost 7lbs in this first week. You're right, you usually do lose more in the first week or two, then it settles down which is where a lot of people give up as they're not losing as much. Because of when you're eating, you're basically also doing the intermittent fasting diet where you only eat within a certain period - most people do 8/16 which is where you eat within 8 hours of the day but nothing else outside of that. I've been eating 4 to 5 smaller meals throughout the day.
Eating 4 -5 smaller meals keeps insulin spiked and as a result of that, with insulin in your blood, you can't burn body fat unless you are calorie deficient. That means you have to rely on will power. Yes I am doing intermittent fasting with 20 hours fasting and a 4 hour eating window. Keeps you fat burning for longer. No hunger either with what i'm doing.
Cor you sure you are not a doctor great you be safe both off you as long as you both are safe well i love you both kev and family Kids be safe all of you my your god Go with you kev
Great job , I'm doing 3 pounds a week at the moment on the keto...cloud bread is great for everything including pudding cheap to. 3 eggs full fat soft cheese baking powder....P.T.E not yet but will when I can't loss any more weight....James.
