If you want to practice better nutrition and start on a road to better health, there are a lot of simple things to do that when put together will make big changes in the way you feel, and how your body feels. The best way to do this is to get back to nature. That means eating whole foods and fresh food. That is the way it was created in nature. That means it has not been through a trip to a processing facility. There are many benefits to a whole food diet, including helping in your body's daily digestive activities as well as boosting many of the systems in your body. A whole food diet can also help you shed extra pounds. If you are ready to switch to a diet of whole foods, you are going to need some help. - Always eat organic vegetables and fruits. They should have an organically grown label. - When eating meats and dairy products make sure they were not commercially processed. Look for items that were made from animals that were not injected with antibiotics and steroids. - If you want eggs, look for eggs laid by free-range chickens that are labeled fertile eggs. - A good mineral and protein source that you may not have thought of are sea-vegetables such as kelp and arame. - When cooking use ONLY unrefined oils. - If you are having a bowel movement, make sure you are in the correct posture for you body. You should be in a squatting position with your feet elevated. - Use butter instead of margarine. Also try cooking with other oils like olive oil or coconut oil. - If making cold fruit or vegetable drinks, add flax oil for more nutritional value. - If you are eating carbohydrates, have whole grains instead of any white flour or sugar items. - When eating grains look for ones that are free of gluten such as millet, brown rice, buckwheat, quinoa, and amaranth. - When using water for drinking or cooking, stick with purified water that has added minerals instead of tap water. You should even consider a filter on your shower and bath faucets. - If you want juice, make your own. Canned and bottled juices have been processed. - You never know where your fruits and vegetables have been, so before eating them clean them thoroughly with a veggie wash solution or create your own with water and 3% hydrogen peroxide. - Know what you're eating by reading the labels of foods before you buy them to steer clear of chemical additives. - Instead of using white sugar or an artificial sweetener, try using stevia or lo han. - Making a morning ritual of drinking 8-ounces of water with some lemon in the morning and evening. - Your body needs water. You should be drinking 1/2 ounce of water per day for every pound of body. - Cut sodas, of all kinds, out of your diet. - Lower the number amount of alcohol you drink.


- If you're a smoker, its time to quit. - Don't drink coffee. If you must, look for organic java. - Make herbal teas a part of your diet. - Increase you raw food intake slowly. - Before eating nuts and grains, soak them in water overnight. - Take the time to thoroughly chew your food. - Keep all oils and grain cool in the refrigerator. - Avoid anything deep-fried. - Trust to use a regular oven instead of a microwave. - When eating fruits, stick to just that food group. - Meal plan so you don't mix starch filled carbohydrates and proteins.
