The key to losing weight health and welfare What to Eat
KEY # 1 Eat plenty of vegetables and fruit!
Vegetables and fruits low in calories, provide filling fiber, vitamins and minerals, and protect your health in many ways. Organic produce has higher nutritional quality without insecticides and poisons found in conventional products. Eat as much of your raw materials, as you can. Cooked or frozen is OK, but stay away from canned. Naturally fermented (lacto-fermented) vegetables such as sauerkraut and kimchi are very good for you too.
KEY # 2 Eating meat and animal products.
There are essential nutrients in food animals that can not be found elsewhere. Meat, fish, eggs, cheese and milk are important staples in our diet. Their protein is important for the preservation and enhancement of lean tissue - muscle burns calories!
KEY # 3 Eat whole grains - well prepared.
Beans should be soaked, sprouted or fermented to digest for most people. whole grain products that have not been properly prepared may lead to mineral deficiencies and intestinal problems.
KEY # 4 Add the raw milk to your diet.
Raw (unprocessed, unhomogenized, unpasteurized) whole milk of cows fed on grass is what the body needs (adults and children.) It will boost your intake of calcium and other nutrients, and help your body to do the unwanted fat with CLA therein. See http://realmilk.com for more information.
KEY # 5 Eat lots of "good" fats
The omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids in butter, a little fish (especially cod liver oil), coconut and palm oil and nuts are essential to health. Saturated fatty acids, despite what you may have heard, will help you lose weight, do not cause heart disease, and is actually something that the body needs to function healthily.
Things to avoid
KEY # 6 Cut Out "Junk" carbs - sugar and white flour.
They sabotage your healthy diet in smaller amounts. Use whole grain flour soaked and small amounts of natural sugars such as raw honey and organic maple syrup. Stay away from corn syrup - the situation is worse than sugar.
KEY # 7 significantly reduce "undesirable" and "Bad" Fats
Trans fats and processed oils (most of the oil you find in the grocery store for cooking) are not only rich in calories but are loaded with harmful fatty acids that contribute to disease and obesity . Use butter and coconut oil for cooking and other healthy oils like flax and raw olive oil for salads.
KEY # 8 Avoid modern soy foods.
Soy is not a replacement for meat and can block mineral absorption, inhibit protein digestion, press thyroid function and contain potent carcinogens. Traditional soy foods are fine, if taken in small quantities, well fermented, as in soy sauce, miso and tempeh. Avoid all products with soy protein isolates and added. Do not put infants in the soy milk!
KEY # 9 Avoid processed foods.
Canned and processed products, canned food, processed meat and cheese, the powers of milk proteins and powered contain toxins and things that keep you fat - such as MSG, rancid fats and cholesterol, hydrogenated oils and trans fats, white sugar and white flour, not to mention all the added colors, preservatives and artificial vitamins. Use of unrefined sea salt and herbs to flavor your food instead of refined salt and MSG.
KEY # 10 Reduce or eliminate alcohol processed.
Consumption of alcohol tends to cause a processed weight gain. traditional house unpasteurized fermented beverages, low alcoholic content, on the other hand, are good for you in moderation.
