Italian Food Q & A

Healthy Eating Diet Advice

by Susana
(Colorado USA)

My healthy eating diet advice comes from my own experience: processed food forced me to change.

Great site here! Glad I found it!

What I have learned: As we all know preservatives that must be included in the foods we buy at the local supermarket are not good for us.

What made me see how bad they really are was the fasting I started to do.

I felt great as long as I ate salads made from natural fruits and vegetables. Or sometimes I went totally without food in my fasts.

I felt so good during the fasts. I felt better mentally and physically.
But after a couple of days or more without any food if I ate processed food I felt heavy depressed and sluggish.

I then decided this is it. I began to search for recipes that would not make me feel like a slow retarded turtle.

Since I made my decision it is not hard to find recipes that include food we need and not poison for our bodies.

It concerns me for the children also.

They need to be fed foods that will help and not harm them.

So example helps and so does looking and feeling great.

I organize my meals simply be eating by the clock.

IE: I do not eat a salad for breakfast. I only eat what the time calls for.

I bought an egg poacher. I invested in some other things for the kitchen such as food processor.

I do not like juicers since I had to use 6 oranges just for one glass of juice. I just go with eating oranges any time of the day.

I researched oranges and learned they:

1. Absorbs excess water as they pass through the system

2. Balance salt intake

3. Produce serotonin and melatonin.

Last but not least drinking water keeps the body from storing it, thus retaining it in swelling and bloatedness.

As for budgeting it makes good cents to eat three times a day always eating only what your body needs.

Buying junk food on a whim is not a good idea for anyone on a budget. But will power is the key to good health.

Hi Susanna,

Great post. I agree - since we started buying organic and eating tons of fruit and veggies each day (really cutting down the animal products in fact), we've felt better, been happier mentally and lost weight.

You might also like a site I know of, called Raw Food Health - www.raw-food-health.net. I'm not suggesting you should become a raw food vegan, but Andrew is a serious journalist and his site is full of great articles about the pro's and cons of different foods.

Hope that's useful!

Matt.
