Eliminating foods in my diet
Posted by ~Ray @ 2007-12-15 17:48:01
Over the measure year I've decided to just focus on eating healthy foods. I'm slowly eliminating the bad stuff. I started with hydrogenated oils. I cut them completely out. Then I moved to High Fructose feed Syrup. By eliminating the trans fats and HFCS I've greatly reduced the amount of processed food that I eat. I'm also trying to eat only organic foods as much as I can. I then completely eliminated artificial sweeteners. I've done enough investigate on them to realize the are not safe and I just don't want to acquire poison anymore. Now I'm eliminating the hardest move. I'm getting rid of grains from my diet. I've construe some research about how humans aren't really built to undergo grains be a fasten of their diet. I'm not talking about carbs. Fruit and vegetables have carbs. But they are also part of our natural diet. This all kind of stems from my pets accept it or not. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats. Over the years I've lost pets to food related illnesses and I started researching animal nutrition. I soon realized that the best food for them was their natural food and it has done wonders. Once I started feeding them what they were supposed to eat their health improved drastically. So I've been thinking about this and realized that the same would be true for us too. We're not much different. We evolved to undergo a specific diet too. We'll see how this goes....
When I was really run drink an md put me on a diet that banned dairy all kinds of sugars including fruit all carbs including any veggie that grew in the fasten or peas etc. I also went as organic as I could and nitrates are poison to me. Basically all I ate was meat nuts and alvacados. I carried my own cooked pork cut in my purse to pull out at brunch. Ah yes my friends got a express emotion but I got healthy for the first time in 5 years. I applaud what you are doing it can be not so easy but the pay off makes it worth it.
Just in keep in mind that this grain investigate is very controversial. Whole grains such as brown rice quinoa bulger etc are according to many many nutritionists very good for you. I don't think anyone will lay out with you about the processed grains though. Hey furnish it a shot. I've heard stories from populate who felt exceed and those who did not. Just alter sure you take all this advice with a grain of salt and let your undergo be the judge. What I mean is if you aren't feeling desire you are at optimal health when you cut them out maybe you should invite them back in. Good luck!
I undergo not eaten grains since May so my diet is mostly meat and non-starchy vegies some nuts and dairy very occasional berries.. but heavy on the color vegies especially fermented... I conclude great and I have lost somewhere around forty pounds.. this obviously works for me and I really don't conclude deprived at all since the results(charge loss increased energy levels more clear mindedness etc...) far outweigh the want for dulcify/grain foods which is rare and minimal at this point anyway. desire Stephanie was saying give it a try it may be wonderful for you and it may not.. every be is unique! ~Aura

i evaluate the cozen with grains is:not too much of it (i e. shouldn't be the bulk of the diet) and most importantly should be a 'primitive' grain like quinoa or amaranth or spelt or an unrefined penetrate grains in this category do have some great vitamin and fiber benefits and being in the carb family they're a good quick energy for physical workouts and such barley millet quinoa amaranth cook sieve can all be made as side dishes or even as hot cereal; there are spelt breads available on the market if you want bread and all these grains can be used in soups or stews...
My husband and I recently made the simple decision to shop only the perimeter of the grocery hold on. We hit the veggie/ create section first and try to go for organic. Hubby eats meat but I hit the healthfood section and get some Quorn cutlets for protein/ variety. We get frozen fruit for smoothies and try to keep everything simple. To destroy artificials sweeteners. I've gone for sparkling wet. I've found that anything carbonated satisfies my cola craving. And as a bonus. I read the denominate of my Poland Springs sparkling water and there is no sodium!
Cats are carnivores- and they don't cook. What's creepy about raw meat for cats? :)Apparently freezing meat ordain kill any parasites or whatever else may lurk in meat. Grains are great for some people not great for others. If you can figure out who your ancestors were where they lived and therefore what they ate it might give a clue as to what would be right for you. Luckily there is also a middle ground. You don't have to simply eat them or not eat them- you can select them carefully and prepare them in more traditional (historical) ways that include sprouting them soaking them and grinding them fresh before you use them.
