The World Wants to Know: What DOES Dr. Loder eat??

The story behind how this post came about is an interesting one.  I happened to be hanging around Dr. Loder near the end of lunch one day and I witnessed something peculiar – he took a large spoon, dipped it into a jar of coconut oil and ate it like it was no big deal. Now, I’m a fan of cooking with coconut oil or putting it in my smoothies, BUT for those of you who aren’t familiar with it, coconut oil is a solid at room temperature – much like Crisco. The texture is a little different, but not much! So in my book, eating straight coconut oil is right up there with eating straight Crisco, except for WAY healthier, of course. Still weird though. This brings us back to why I’m writing this. I know that Dr. Loder is an extremely healthy person and he only eats healthy food, but I don’t really know WHAT he eats. And after seeing him eat the coconut oil, I have a feeling it’s going to be an interesting read.

With no further ado, here is what a typical day looks like for Dr. Loder:

Breakfast
4 organic, free range eggs, over easy
2 handfuls assorted raw nuts
Standard Process protein bar
Organic strawberries and blueberries

Lunch
Raw broccoli, cauliflower, carrots (and not just a few – a very large container!)
Canned wild Alaskan salmon
1 handful assorted raw nuts

1 apple
Standard Process protein bar

All after exercising for 50 minutes!

Dinner

Beef roast (Dr. Loder grows his own antibiotic free, hormone free and grass fed

 beef)
Carrots, celery, onions
Assorted fresh fruit

1 oz. organic dark chocolate w/low sugar (Even Dr. Loder likes his chocolate – he’s just smart about how much and what kind he eats.)

Supplements

Innate Choice Vitamin D

Innate Choice Omega Sufficiency

Innate Choice Probiotic

Standard Process SP Green Food

Standard Process Catalyn

Standard Process OPC Synergy

Just like Dr. Loder teaches at his Eat Well classes, there is no grain, no dairy, and very little processed food in his diet. And this really is a typical day for him. He didn’t just eat this way so I could write about it. He hasn’t always eaten this way though. As some of you know, Dr. Loder is my step-brother and I remember his eating habits from when I was a child. He’s a little infamous for eating ALL my Easter candy one year! Ask him about the food he used to eat, it’ll surprise you! Even though Dr. Loder didn’t start eating this way until later in life, he’s still healthier than many people HALF his age! He made a commitment to his health, AND SO CAN YOU!

So there you have it, folks! Dr. Loder doesn’t just teach the Eat Well, Move Well, Think Well program – he lives it!
