Here's the recipe for the Meatloaf we had last night with some variations.

It would have fed 8-9.  (Would feed 10 if you used the full 2 lbs of ground turkey.)

 

1 lb 10 oz ground turkey breast (Could have been 2 lbs.  That's just what I had.)

2- 2 lb logs of turkey breakfast sausage (I think it was Jenny O)

1/2 C Heinz Reduced sugar ketchup

1/2 C Gluten Free Oatmeal old fashioned rolled oats soaked in 2/3 cup water for at least an hour or cook it some to soften. (I microwaved it for 1.5 min because I was in a hurry.)

1 C egg whites

1 1/2 Cup Celery minced in the food processor

 

I blended it all in the food processor but you could use a mixer.

 

Mound it in an oval in the center of a 9x11 dish.  top with 2 pkgs of cherry tomatoes.

Bake at 350 F (375 F if you need it to cook faster) until internal temp reaches 180 F.  Let sit for 5 min. before you cut it.

 

Notes: 

·         You can easily cut it in half.

·         You can use all turkey breast instead of the sausage, then add your own seasonings.  Since this was a new experiment, I cooked  quarter size patties in a frying pan until it tasted good to me. 

·         I have another recipe that uses all turkey breast and picante sauce with salt and pepper instead of the ketchup, then delete the celery.

·         Instead of the Oatmeal, you can use gluten free bread crumbs soaked in water, potato flakes, mashed potatoes, or cooked rice.

Dr. Sears markers for wellness from zone cruise 2015

From the last zone cruise, here are the blood tests that Dr. Sears uses to determine wellness. 

 

Are You In The Zone?

Balance of cellular inflammation

 

AA/EPA ratio –  finger prick test at order at zonediagnostics.com

Measurement of the balance of initiation and resolution of inflammation –

Goal: Between 1.5 and 3 (1.5 is best)

 

TG/HDL ratio

Marker of insulin resistance in the liver

Goal:  < 0.4 (mmol/l) or <1 (mg/dl)

 

HbA1C

Marker of Long-term glycemic control

Goal: 5%

 

Optional:

Oxidized LDL (OxLDL)  link has test details

To see if you are taking enough polyphenols.

If the 3 tests Dr. Sears listed above are within ideal ranges then the need for the OxLDL test is minimal.  

Here's the link to an article Barry wrote regarding oxidized LDL cholesterol - http://www.zonediet.com/blog/another-new-wrinkle-in-the-cholesterol-story/

Your link is the correct LDL oxidation test (OxLDL). The relative risk ranges are listed on the links below. Dr. Sears says less than 60 is good, under 45 is better.

Most likely the test is a special order from your doctor and may be an out of pocket expense.

Oxidized LDL testing:

Is it worth ordering?

If the 3 tests Dr. Sears listed above are within ideal ranges then the need for the OxLDL test is minimal.
