General kitchen advice

Try Eating Raw Food : You need a balance of three basic food groups as most of your diet:
  • sweet fruits (apples, oranges, berries, melons, etc.)
  • green leaves (dark lettuce, kale, collards, spinach, etc.)
  • raw plant fats (avocados, olives & their oil, coconuts & their oil, nuts & seeds, durian)
    • Eat lots of sweet fruit, lots of green leaves, and some fat (as dressing, pâté, hummus, etc.). Add vegetables as desired, and sprouted grains and legumes occasionally. Try fruit for breakfast and snacks; greens, veggies and fat for lunch and dinner.


    Kitchen Tip : Solid disk elements and radiant elements under glass stove tops are easier to clean than conventional electric coil elements, but they take longer to heat up and use more electricity.


    Diet types

    The Zone Diet
    The Zone diet is a weight loss program primarily created by Barry Sears in a number of books, publications and an accompanying website. The Zone diet isn’t distinctly a fat reduction diet, although many followers believe that they lose a few pounds by following the zone diet.
    The main scientific theory behind the Zone Diet is that if you control the secretion of the hormones 'insulin' and 'glucogen', then your body releases eicosanoids which, in turn puts one's body in a state of equilibrium which is a lot more healthful than it normally is, which followers of the diet, refer to as '"he zone".
    Sears believes that if you get into this 'zone', your metabolism is working at its best and, as a consequence, doesn't build up fat.
    The most interesting process of the diet is to maintain the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to dose yourself with plenty of Omega 3 fish oils.
