Fat Flush Plan Substitutions

By Hklbrries

When the recipe calls for __X___, use this Fat Flush ingredient instead:

1 tbsp of margarine, cooking oil or butter = 3 tbsp ground flaxseed. Your baked goods will brown more quickly with flax, so either shorten the baking time or lower oven temperature by 25 F.

Sugar = 1 packet Stevia Plus for every 2 teaspoons of sugar. Or use aromatic crushed seeds such as fennel, cardamom, anise, caraway, or coriander.

1 cup whole or skim milk = 2 heaping tbsp high-protein whey powder plus 1 cup filtered water

Hot pepper sauce = Dash of cayenne

1 tsp dried herbs = 1 tbsp fresh herbs

1 tsp salt = 1 tsp Cardia Salt

1 oz or square of unsweetened baking chocolate 3 tbsp of carob powder plus 1 tbsp of filtered water and 1 tbsp rice bran oil

1 tbsp cocoa = 1 tbsp carob powder

1 egg = 1 omega-3-enriched egg (Note: If you’re allergic to eggs, blend 1 tbsp ground flax with 3 tbsp of water and let stand for a couple of minutes)

Gelatin = Agar-agar, a seaweed gelatin available in health food stores replaces animal-based gelatin. Agar-agar provides added fiber and lubrication in the intestinal tract by absorbing moisture.

Baking powder, regular (contains aluminum) = Equal amounts of aluminum-free baking powder, low-sodium and grain-free.

Breading and frying = Poach in broth, water, or wine, and then bake in a covered dish to retain moisture

1 cup whole grain flour for baking = Take 2 tbsp out of 1 cup of flour and replace it with 2 tbsp of flax meal. Reduce the oil in the recipe by 2 tsp for every 2 tbsp of the flax meal. Bake for a shorter time or lower the heat by 25 F.

2 tbsp margarine mixed with 1 tbsp flour = 2 tbsp arrowroot or kudzu found in health food for sauce and soup thickeners stores. Arrowroot adds calcium to foods,whereas kudzu is high in iron. Or use egg yolks to thicken sauces or pureed cauliflower for soups.
