Overview

The Galveston Diet is a wellness approach designed specifically for women, focusing on hormonal balance, weight management, and overall health. Created by Dr. Mary Claire Haver, an obstetrician-gynecologist, the diet aims to address the unique hormonal challenges that women face, particularly during perimenopause and menopause. Key principles of the Galveston Diet include: Balanced Nutrition: The diet emphasizes a balanced intake of macronutrients, including healthy fats, lean proteins, and low-glycemic carbohydrates. This approach aims to provide sustained energy and promote satiety. Whole Foods: Whole, unprocessed foods are encouraged, with an emphasis on nutrient-dense options. This includes a variety of vegetables, fruits, nuts, seeds, and lean proteins. Inflammation Reduction: The diet suggests reducing inflammation by avoiding certain foods that may contribute to inflammation. This includes minimizing processed foods, refined sugars, and foods with a high glycemic index. Intermittent Fasting: The Galveston Diet incorporates intermittent fasting as a strategy to optimize hormonal balance and support weight management. This typically involves a fasting window followed by an eating window. Galveston-Approved Sweeteners: Instead of traditional sweeteners, the diet recommends the use of Galveston-approved sweeteners such as stevia or monk fruit to satisfy sweet cravings without causing spikes in blood sugar. Mindful Eating: The diet encourages mindful eating practices, including paying attention to hunger and fullness cues, and fostering a positive relationship with food. Hydration: Staying well-hydrated is emphasized, and water intake is considered an important aspect of the Galveston Diet. Individualized Approach: The Galveston Diet recognizes that each woman's body is unique, and dietary needs may vary. It promotes an individualized approach to nutrition that considers personal preferences and health goa
