Introduction [0:00]

Dr. Lalitha introduces the video as part of a series on Rebirth's offerings, focusing on a special recipe with improvisations based on patient suggestions. She aims to provide a protein-rich diet in every meal, especially crucial for patients experiencing sarcopenia (muscle loss). Maintaining muscle mass is vital for overall health, flexibility, and graceful aging, which requires adequate protein, nutrients, low carbohydrates, and exercise.

The Core Message: Insulin Resistance and Lifestyle [2:19]

The main points of discussion are insulin resistance and stress. Insulin resistance is primarily caused by high carbohydrate intake, leading to elevated insulin levels. Stress also contributes by releasing stored glucose, prompting an insulin response. Managing stress and adopting mindful eating habits are crucial. The order in which food is consumed matters; carbohydrates should be eaten last.

Dietary Recommendations for a Healthy Breakfast [3:47]

Dr. Lalitha recommends starting the day with fiber-rich foods and healthy fats. This approach helps maintain energy levels, manage weight, and prevent lifestyle diseases like diabetes, fatty liver, and polycystic ovarian disease, all linked to insulin resistance. A full meal with protein, fiber, good cholesterol, vitamins, and minerals is the best way to nourish the body in the morning.

Dr. Lalitha shares her breakfast routine, which includes chia seeds, moringa leaves, virgin coconut oil or ghee, eggs, and vegetables. This combination keeps her full for hours and helps maintain stable energy levels. She emphasizes that this diet sensitizes insulin, preventing sugar, BP, and cholesterol issues. This dietary approach is a key feature of Rebirth's wellness program.

Rebirth's Approach and the Importance of Awareness [6:27]

At Rebirth, patients often lack awareness about the importance of diet, so Dr. Lalitha conducts weekly classes to educate them on the reasons behind the specific food and treatment methods. The goal is to provide a full, nutritious meal that is easy to prepare. She calls it a multi-vegetable scrambled egg preparation with virgin coconut oil, which is beneficial in an era of increasing lifestyle diseases.

Dr. Lalitha shares the ingredients for her scrambled egg recipe: two country eggs, 50g of finely chopped onions, 25g of carrots, 50g of cabbage, a handful of moringa leaves, one tomato, and 10-15g of chia seeds. Salt and pepper can be added to taste, but she prefers not to use pepper. The dish is cooked in virgin coconut oil or ghee.

Additional Tips and Benefits of the Diet [8:27]

This diet serves two purposes: it nourishes the body and feeds the gut's microflora. Chia seeds, moringa leaves, cabbage, and carrots are rich in fiber, promoting a healthy gut. Virgin coconut oil is also beneficial for microflora, improving immunity, mood, digestion, sleep, and overall happiness. Positive thinking is linked to a healthy gut, which is supported by this diet.

Customization and Conclusion [9:47]

She concludes by highlighting that Rebirth focuses on anti-aging by reducing carbohydrate intake and promoting cellular rejuvenation. The center also incorporates meditation, yoga, and deep relaxation to foster positivity and well-being.
