When Ottilie Greaves was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes, she panicked. “I thought I’d never enjoy food again,” she admits. “I imagined bland salads and fear around every bite.”
But as she sat down with her dietitian, something shifted. Instead of fear, they talked about curiosity. “What makes you feel full? What do you love to cook?” the dietitian asked. Bloom Nutrition Superfood Greens Powder, Digestive Enzymes with Probiotics and Prebiotics, Gut Health
Ottilie leaned into those questions. She started learning how to swap rice for cauliflower, how to cook with zucchini noodles, how to bring out flavor without relying on sugar-heavy sauces. But most importantly, she didn’t stop making meals she loved—she just made them work for her new needs.
One of her early favorites was a grilled chicken dish with garlic-roasted broccoli and a creamy avocado sauce. “It tasted indulgent,” she says, “but it kept my blood sugar stable—and I felt proud, not deprived.”
The key, Ottilie found, was not just choosing low-carb options, but creating meals that were balanced, beautiful, and made with care. “When you’re cooking with intention, food becomes part of your healing,” she says.
She still experiments, still gets creative. But now, every meal is an act of love—for her health, and for herself.
