We've made some changes!
Brian was diagnosed with diabetes and hypertension and we've decided to make some major changes in our lifestyle and as a result, our channels. What does this mean for our channels?
- CS Mead and More: Not a lot will change, but we are looking at doing some non-alcoholic brews, more tests, maybe more low-abv brews too.
- CS Garden and Grow: Again, not a lot of change, but we will focus on growing more of our food, and growing more leafy greens and vegetables.
- CS Bread and Beyond is now.....CS Homemade and Healthy! We changed our diet, drastically, so this will be reflected in our recipes and videos! What have we changed? Well, we're more or less closest to "keto pescetarianism". Though not really keto exactly. We are staying very low carbohydrate, but cut out land animal protein sources, like beef, pork, chicken, etc. We still eat dairy, like eggs, milk and cheese, and fish and seafood are still on the table. We aren't doing this to be "cool" or "hipster", instead, we found what triggered issues that we have and found ways to work around it. For instance, meat seems to activate Brian's acid reflux, and pasta and white bread spike his blood sugar. So... we cut them out. Is it easy? No. Hells no. But that's why we're making videos on our story and ideas.

Want to take it to the next level? We have the City Steading VIP Club which is centered around a Facebook Group that only the VIP's get to enter. It's an amazing community of City Steaders that have closer access to Derica and Brian, and the admins that all exist to help with questions, issues etc. It's also a great place to talk about your latest recipe, brew, or garden idea. It is a monthly membership, and we totally understand if it's just not something you can do. We're here for you on the channel and Facebook page regardless!
