Day 5 – November Fruit Challenge 🍉

Today’s fruit: watermelon!
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, it’s considered a cooling fruit, helping the body release excess heat and calm inflammation — which is perfect when you’re feeling a little off balance.

Nutritionally, watermelon is over 90% water and packed with vitamin C and lycopene, making it both hydrating and anti-inflammatory.

Food is powerful — sometimes it nourishes, sometimes it balances, and sometimes it just hits the spot. 💛

🍌 Day 4 – November Fruit Challenge

I didn’t post yesterday, but I did eat my fruit! 😅 I’ll share what I had yesterday in this video!

For today’s fruit, I’m keeping it simple: banana with peanut butter in a tortilla — part of my breakfast and one of my go-to quick combos.

🍌 Bananas are packed with potassium, which helps support heart and muscle health, and provide a natural energy boost to start the day.
🥜 Paired with peanut butter, you get protein and healthy fats to keep you full and satisfied.

And here’s my fruit lineup from yesterday: dragon fruit, guava, apple, and a handful of peanuts — colorful, refreshing, and full of fiber and antioxidants.

Every day doesn’t have to be perfect — it’s all about being intentional and consistent.

🍎 Day 2 – November Fruit Challenge

Join me on my fruit challenge where I’m being more intentional about eating fruit every day!

Today I’m having an apple 🍏 paired with some sunflower seeds and a few chocolate-covered pistachios — the perfect mix of crunch, fiber, and healthy fats.

Apples are rich in fiber (especially pectin), which helps support gut health and keeps you full longer. They’re also a good source of vitamin C and antioxidants that may help protect your heart.

Simple, balanced, and satisfying — the kind of snack that feels good and fuels you through the day.

🍊 November Fruit Challenge Kickoff

You know you’ve become an adult when… you have to cut your own fruit. 😅

When I was younger, my mom always had fruit ready after dinner — perfectly sliced persimmons, guava, or orange wedges. Now that I’m the one doing the slicing, I’ve realized how easy it is to forget to eat fruit unless I make it intentional.

So this month, I’m starting a little challenge:
👉 Eat one fruit a day for November.

No pressure, no rules — just more color, more fiber, more vitamins, more joy.
Fresh, frozen, blended, or on the go — however it fits your lifestyle.

Today’s fruit: Fuyu persimmon + white guava
🍂 Persimmon → rich in vitamin A and antioxidants for skin and eye health
🍈 White guava → high in vitamin C, fiber, and lutein to support healthy vision

Join me and share what fruit you’re enjoying today! 🍎🥭🍓
Tag me and use so I can cheer you on 💛

🌿 Nourish Your Roots, Fuel Your Health 🌿

Asian food isn’t just delicious—it’s nutritious!
From tofu and edamame to bok choy and seaweed, many traditional Asian ingredients are packed with fiber, antioxidants, and plant-based proteins that promote heart, kidney, and metabolic health.

🍚 Rice bowls with colorful veggies,
🍜 Soups made with miso or bone broth,
🥢 Stir-fries rich in garlic, ginger, and greens—
these aren’t “cheat meals.” They’re centuries-old examples of balance, variety, and mindful eating.

✨ Here’s your reminder: You don’t need to give up your culture to eat healthy.
You can embrace it and let it guide you toward better health—one flavorful bite at a time.

💡 Start simple this week:
choose brown or mixed-grain rice, and add one more veggie to your plate.

Healthy eating isn’t about restriction—it’s about connection, culture, and care. ❤️
