Pure Eats

Today one of my staff asked me whether her habit of having small main meals and snacking in between could be making it harder for her to adjust her lifestyle.

I told her I’d explain it properly later but work got in the way. Then I thought, instead of replying privately, why not share it here? I’m sure many of you have wondered the same thing.

Personally, I’m not a fan of eating or snacking all day.

Every time we eat, especially food containing carbohydrates or ultra processed food, our pancreas releases insulin. Insulin is an essential hormone that helps move glucose from our bloodstream into our cells. The problem isn’t insulin itself. The issue is when insulin stays elevated for most of the day because we’re constantly eating.

Over time, this may contribute to insulin resistance in some people, making it harder for the body to regulate blood sugar efficiently. Chronically elevated insulin levels are also associated with increased inflammation and a higher risk of metabolic diseases.

This is one of the reasons I encourage giving your body a proper break between meals instead of grazing throughout the day. For most people, aiming for around 4 hours between meals, without unnecessary snacking, allowing insulin levels to come down before the next meal. Many people also find they have better energy, fewer cravings and improved appetite control.

Of course, everyone is different. Children, athletes, pregnant women, and people with certain medical conditions may have different nutritional needs. But if you’re generally healthy and trying to improve your metabolic health, reducing unnecessary snacking is a simple habit that can make a meaningful difference.

Sometimes, it is not just about what we eat. It is also about giving our body enough time between meals to do what it is designed to do.

Love seeing this!

A long-time customer shared their CGM results after eating one of our keto meals and their glucose monitor stayed steady the whole time, no spikes, no crashes. Real food, real results. Check out their post to see the data for yourself 💚

For years, we’ve been told that cancer is largely about genetics or simply getting older.

Now we’re seeing something different.

Colon cancer is rising in younger adults who should, by all accounts, have decades ahead of them. Suddenly, the conversation has shifted. It’s no longer just about genetics. It’s about the environment we live in, what we eat, how we live, and the constant exposure to things our bodies were never designed to process.

I’ve written about this over the years and I’ll keep saying the same thing because I genuinely believe we’ve drifted too far from the basics.

Our bodies were designed to eat real food.

Whole food.

Food that comes from nature, not from a laboratory or a manufacturing line.

People often argue that our ancestors only ate meat. The truth is that regardless of which dietary philosophy you believe in, one thing remains consistent, they weren’t living on ultra processed foods, artificial flavourings, stabilisers, preservatives and ingredients that require a chemistry degree to understand.

Yesterday, I attended a cooking demonstration and I left feeling surprised.

Almost the entire demonstration revolved around processed ingredients. Everything was about convenience. Open a packet. Pour from a bottle. Mix a powder.

Convenience has become the priority.

But somewhere along the way, we’ve forgotten what food is supposed to be.

Trust me when I say this; we were a room full of F&B professionals watching a chef demonstrate an UNOX oven, yet most of what was being cooked came straight out of pre-packaged plastic. This isn’t a criticism of the chef. He was doing exactly what he was employed to do and demonstrating the products he was given. It simply made me reflect on how much our industry has come to rely on convenience over real, whole ingredients……but I must say this; If you’re a chef or a food business whose menu depends on ultra-processed ingredients because it’s easier, cheaper or faster, then perhaps it’s time to ask yourself why you got into this industry in the first place.

As food providers, we have a responsibility that goes beyond serving something that tastes good.

We are feeding people.

We’ve often been judged for preparing meals in advance.

In many Asian households, anything prepared and stored in the fridge is immediately labelled as “leftovers.” Yet those same people walk into restaurants believing every single dish is magically cooked from A to Z the moment they place their order. That’s being delusional 😅

That’s rarely how most commercial kitchens work.

Many businesses operate multiple brands using pre-made sauces, pre-mixed marinades, frozen components and ready-to-use ingredients. The customer never sees what happens behind the scenes.

Running a whole food kitchen is completely different.

It’s harder.

It’s messier.

It’s more labour intensive.

Every sauce starts with actual ingredients. Vegetables need to be cut. Proteins need to be prepared properly. Stocks take hours. Herbs need to be washed. There are no shortcuts hidden in packets.

The chaos behind a whole food kitchen is real, but so is the integrity.

At Pure Eats, we’ve always believed that meal prep isn’t the problem.

What you prep matters far more than when you prep it.

Preparing real food and storing it safely is not the same as relying on ultra processed convenience foods.

One nourishes the body.

The other simply feeds it.

Even people who dedicate enormous amounts of time and money to optimising their health remind us that there are limits. Bryan Johnson has become one of the world’s best-known biohackers, yet his own health journey has shown that no amount of testing, supplements or optimisation can guarantee perfect health.

To me, that’s an important reminder.

Health isn’t won by chasing every new hack.

It isn’t about taking dozens of supplements or trying to outsmart biology.

Sometimes the smartest thing we can do is go back to the basics.

Eat real food.

Move your body.

Sleep well.

Manage stress.

Spend time with people you love.

Our bodies are incredibly intelligent when we stop overwhelming them.

We don’t need to become machines.

Because at the end of the day, we’re only human.

Eat Pure.Live Pure.
