PURE SICILIAN LEMON JUICE – Jardin Bio Étic
“I really like this lemon juice because it comes from organic farming, 100% natural and completely free of sulphite, a preservative which can sometimes be allergenic. This is the only fruit juice I recommend. Others (orange, apple, etc.), which are too sweet, have the effect of increasing blood sugar levels. On the other hand, I recommend those made from vegetables, in particular carrot which works very well as an aperitif. » 50 cl, €3.69.
WHOLE RYE BREAD – Bjorg
“He’s got it all! This whole rye bread is even more nutritionally interesting than whole wheat. It is rich in fiber, therefore perfect for transit, its glycemic index is moderate, it brings a real feeling of satiety and avoids the 11 o’clock cravings. Bjorg’s has no additives and only includes simple ingredients like water, sea salt, yeast. » 500 g, €2.99.
Sugar-free hazelnut puree – Jean Hervé
“We haven’t found anything better than this 100% hazelnut spread, zero sugar and zero fat, to replace the classic versions enriched with sugar and palm oil (sugar + fat = the best equation for gaining weight and making you hungry!) . In addition to being delicious, this hazelnut puree is very rich in minerals (potassium, phosphorus, calcium), vegetable proteins and good fats. But as the product remains quite expensive, we alternate spread, ham, cheese depending on the day because nothing replaces a protein breakfast to start the day off right. » 350 g, €15.44.
THE WHITE HAKE & SALMON CASSOLETTE – Aucy
“From a macronutrient point of view (proteins, lipids, carbohydrates), this cooked dish provides a perfect balance thanks to the fish accompanied by three vegetables (leeks, carrots, zucchini) and brown rice. And this, without any chemical additives. In the same spirit, I also like the Trout fillet with leek fondue and its spelled mescia from Carrefour Bio (300 g, 3.25 euros). However, I recommend not overdoing cooked meals, which are often saltier than homemade and less rich in vitamins and minerals. » 300 g, €3.25.
THE GREAT SOUTH HERBAL TEA Lipton
“As licorice has a naturally sweet taste, I often recommend it to satisfy that craving for sugar that hits us at the end of a meal in the evening. Perfect for avoiding snacking! Furthermore, mint and licorice have digestive properties which act on the intestines and stomach, which prevents acid reflux for those who are prone to it. The only downside is that I do not recommend it for people who have high blood pressure, because licorice promotes it. » 20 sachets, €1.65.
ORGANIC BROCCOLI FLORIPS – Picard
“I choose these broccoli, vegetables rich in antioxidants, because they are of French and organic origin. Although it is always recommended to buy fresh, local and seasonal, frozen carrots, zucchini, mushrooms, beans, etc. contain almost as many vitamins and minerals as market vegetables. And the great advantage is that we always have the desired vegetable immediately on hand, even if it is not in season. » 600 g, €2.99.
PROVENÇAL-STYLE CROQ’SOJA – Organic Cereal
“This vegetarian dish (tofu with tomato, onion, chives, oregano, etc.) is delicious and has 14 g of protein per serving. This is more than most equivalent dishes which contain more like 5 or 6 g. As a bonus, there are no harmful additives. I like to cook it by adding tomato sauce and semi-whole rice, bulgur or spelled. With a salad as a starter, it makes a very balanced meal. However, as soy contains phytoestrogens, we limit ourselves to one Croq’Soja per week so as not to risk destabilizing the hormonal system. » 2 x 100 g, €2.29.
THE SKYR NATURE – Yoplait
“It is its richness in protein, without fat, which characterizes this Icelandic yogurt adored by athletes as a healthy snack, rich in calcium and more filling than yogurt. With its short list of ingredients, it is one of the minimally processed products without additives or thickeners that can be sweetened naturally with a few pieces of kiwi, apple or banana. » 825 g, €5.99.
SARDINES IN EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL – Connétable
“Essential in the cupboard, sardines are a fairly simple way to eat fish to stock up on good fats, the famous omega-3. Highly concentrated in protein (24 g per 100 g), these French fish are prepared the old-fashioned way with a reduced list of ingredients: sardines, salt and extra virgin olive oil, known for its many health benefits. cardiovascular”. 135 g, €2.45.
WHITE HAM, THE SUPERIOR, RED LABEL, NITRITE-FREE – Fleury Michon
“Even if it is not organic, this ham meets very demanding specifications which guarantee sustainable breeding conditions, food and an artisanal manufacturing process controlled throughout the chain. The Red Label of this ham from French pork also certifies the limitation of additives and lipid levels. And it is cooked in a broth (water, pork bones and meat, carrot concentrate, spices, salt, natural flavors without phosphates or nitrites), so I validate its richness in proteins and its low fat content. 4 slices, €4.45.
BRETAGNE GALETTES WITH BUCKWHEAT – Our regions have talent
“From a composition point of view (water, buckwheat flour and Guérande salt), these buckwheat pancakes, from the local sector, are much better for your health than certain wheat-based sandwich breads. Richer in fiber, without gluten or lactose, they contain good low GI carbohydrates which are digested slowly and which are very easy to integrate into a balanced diet with what we want (cheese, ham , egg…). And even for breakfast, they are perfect. “. 6 pancakes, €1.89.
THE SPECIAL MUESLI 30% FRUITS & NUTS – Jordan
“It is one of the best mueslis, without being organic, interesting for its richness in fiber and its absence of added sugars and salt. Its composition based on three whole grains (oat flakes, barley, wheat) and 30% dried fruits and nuts is good for your health. In general, you should be wary of puffed cereals, which digest very quickly and are full of sugar, colorings or preservatives. 750 g, €3.65.
KETCHUP Garden – Bio Étic
“It’s the least sweet ketchup on the market (21 g of sugar) at a very reasonable price. A successful marriage of tomatoes grown outdoors with organic cane sugar. It is free from anything that can be bad for your health such as glucose syrup, spirit vinegar, aromatic plants and added flavors or thickeners. » 560 g, €2.99.
MOULINÉ D’ANTAN GREEN VEGETABLES FROM FRANCE – La Potagère
“Even if it means buying an industrial soup, I recommend choosing cartons over dehydrated soups that are limited in fiber, vitamins and too rich in salt and additives. As for recipes, you might as well opt for those based on green vegetables without potatoes. La Potagère fulfills its mission: French vegetables cooked with extra virgin olive oil, salt and organic herbs. » 1 l, €5.42.
ORGANIC DARK CHOCOLATE 85% PERU – Alter Eco
“To treat yourself, without feeling guilty, I favor dark chocolate with at least 85% cocoa and as little sugar as possible. In this recipe, it is in third position (here only 14% compared to 50% in certain bars), after cocoa paste and cocoa butter and without lecithin. » 100 g, €2.35.
