I love a good pizza and even sold gourmet wood fired pizzas in my restaurant in Brisbane for 3 years. Traditional pizza is out as the grains/wheat flour are not part of my Primed Lifestyle. However, I created a delicious and healthy Primed Gourmet Pizza with Broccoli and Cauliflower Rice as the base.
The toppings are up to you of course but I used the traditional Salami, tomato and cheese for the recipe below.

Marc is one of my best friends. He is a cool, tall, German guy who has made his home in the Philippines and is working hard to improve the care for the elderly here.

How Did Marc Lose 35 Pounds?
Marc lost his 35 pounds by eating real food and not through endless, fruitless exercise. Marc eliminated most of his cheap, processed carbs (still sneaking in the occasional beer and pizza every now and then though) like bread, pasta, noodles and crackers. He eats lots of healthy carbohydrates though like spinach, kangkong, beetroot, carrots etc. Marc did buy a bike and can be seen riding around Santa Rosa every now and then.
So, How Does Marc Go To The Next Level?

My son Christian recently was asked to bring in 20 cookies for his classmates to celebrate the last day of a certain subject. Of course, we would never serve what we know to be harmful ingredients such as grains, sugar and vegetable oil, so we created a Primed Fruit Muffin Top for a healthy snack that I am told by the 20 discerning 12 and 13 year old’s was delicious.
Ingredients:
1 cup raw almonds that you grind into almond meal/flour
1 and 1/2 cups of coconut flour
1 cup raisins – chopped
1/2 cup dried apricots – chopped
2 teaspoons cinnamon
3 tablespoons of honey
3 tablespoons of coconut oil
7 ripe bananas
6 eggs
coconut oil to grease muffin tray
Method:
1. Grind your almonds into flour and your dessicated coconut into flour too. We make and store both of these items with the almond flour stored in the fridge and the coconut flour stored in the freezer.
2. Chop your apricots and raisins into smaller pieces.
I have a friend called Jimmy Moore. He has written the book review below on the book of Dr. Robert Su M.D. called Carbohydrates Can Kill. Jimmy Moore is a passionate LCHF proponent because he desperately wants people to live better and longer lives through eating real food. Jimmy Moore also wrote one of my favorite books called Keto Clarity (as well as another called Cholesterol Clarity).

I had a most enjoyable Primed lunch at Myron’s Place in Greenbelt 5with 4 other expats on Thursday the 30th April. I did not know that Myron’s is well known for their steaks so I am glad that is what I ordered.
So, what do 2 Aussies, a Kiwi, a Frenchman and a Dane talk about over lunch? We all wanted local hero Manny Pacquiao to win against Floyd and we all agreed that the food and ambiance of Myron’s Place is very nice.
Myron’s Place is conveniently located at ground level of Greenbelt 5. The interior design is modern, relaxing and enhanced with the beautiful view of surrounding lush gardens.
My Duet of Bacon-Wrapped Petite US Certified Angus Beef Medallions & Grilled Shrimps was excellent. The waiters gladly substituted the mashed potatoes for extra vegetables which were fabulous. I loved the whole oven-roasted garlic knob. Being Primed I skipped the bread of course.
A picture sometimes says a lot more than words. So, here is the featured image again of Primed Franz and Ghia Fabiana.
Ghia said “I love working out with my husband. We motivate each other and push each other to be the best that we can be.
Our diet is not totally 100% clean yet but we’re working on it to keep it balanced. We try and eat real food and avoid sugars, grains and definitely vegetable oil.
We really felt the difference in every change we’re up to. Even Franz lost a few pounds and still he felt stronger in everything he does. And that only proves that eating real food is much better than anything else.
This is a permanent life style changed for me and Franz that is easy to maintain. And we are so happy because we choose to live happy and healthy at this early age.
This is the best bonding a couple like us could have until we grow older.”
From Ghia “Thanks to Chad Davis for showing us the Primed Lifestyle!”
I love a nice Primed Coffee. It is either a double espresso or a Primed Iced Coffee in the Philippines heat.
I even made sure to have a Primed Iced Coffee waiting for me in my fridge after my Malaysian Ironman and Melbourne Ironman. This great drink served a dual purpose as: (a) A drink to look forward to after the race; and (b) To aid my recovery due to the great fats in the coconut milk.
Ingredients 1: Primed Cinnamon Iced Coffee
6 teaspoons of coffee
1/2 glass of home-made coconut milk
2 glasses of water
ground cinnamon spice
ice cubes
We use cinnamon sticks bought from an Indian grocery shop along Jupiter Street and then grind them in our grinder. You can also buy the cinnamon shaker from the spice rack where you normally shop.
It is Very Easy to Make your Own Coconut Milk
Ingredients 2: Iced Coffee with Coconut Sugar
6 teaspoons of coffee
1/2 glass of coconut milk
2 glasses of water
coconut sugar to taste (or quality honey) – both optional only
ice cubes
Method:
Pretty simple of course but I dissolve my coffee in a little hot water, add ice cubes, add coconut milk, add cinnamon (or coconut sugar or both) and add water. Then stir and serve. Easy, yet delicious and nutritious.
It is an excellent accompaniment for a Primed breakfast.
Eggs and bacon are always a favorite in the morning with my Primed Cinnamon Iced Coffee.
Equally fabulous is chicken thigh topped with tomato and grilled cheese on a bed of chili zucchini “noddles” with my Primed Cinnamon Iced Coffee.
The health benefits of Coconut Milk are very long and far reaching.
The health Benefits of Cinnamon are Similarly Extensive
Coconut Oil Rocks Too
I often have a shot of Virgin Coconut Oil before having my Primed Iced Coffee. If I have my coffee hot then I put the shot into my black coffee with a splash of coconut milk.
Friendly advice: Do not add coconut oil to your Primed Cinnamon Iced Coffee. It becomes solid and is not easy or pleasant to drink cold. I have made this very mistake before. Twice!
Having a delicious Primed Cinnamon Iced Coffee is very filling and satisfying and can even serve as a meal replacement for breakfast if you wanted to slowly ease yourself into Regular Intelligent Fasting and experience the unique health benefits associated with it.
Some other great reasons to fast include the way it helps regulate your insulin as explained in this fabulous graph provided by Washington Dr. Ted Naiman from Burn Fat Not Sugar.
Dr. Ted’s graph is backed up by the slide of Canadian Dr. Jason Fung who cures his patients of their Type 2 Diabetes.
Please let me know if you like this Primed Coffee and your variation on it.
Cheers.

There is nothing more delicious than quality Dark Chocolate. On our recent trip to Switzerland we tried some of their famous Swiss Chocolate but realized we could also make excellent Primed Dark Chocolate varieties ourselves. Here is one of our inventions but feel free to adapt and add other quality ingredients to suit your taste.

I am ecstatic with the number of people worldwide who are adopting a healthier, Primed lifestyle.
In India, America, Australia and the Philippines, to name just a few countries, so many people are going Primed, and experiencing wonderful benefits for their health, family and life in general.
After adopting a Primed Lifestyle they become healthier. This then helps them become happier. Their sleep improves, their ailments become less, they get more energy, more mental clarity and they realize it is best to eat to live, rather than live to eat!
Here are 5 Reasons Why People are Adopting a Primed Lifestyle
1. You Eat Better Food
The Primed Lifestyle is simple. You eat higher quality food (not more expensive necessarily) so as to feed your mind and body optimally.
I gladly train you, your family and staff on how to cook nutritious and delicious food as part of my Wellness Coaching. Be warned though, once you start eating properly it is impossible to go back to eating the low quality stuff!
