The more junk you eat, the more junk you want. The more healthy you eat, the more healthy you want. That's the truth. That's why the ONLY way to recover from food addiction, is to go radically healthy.

This is interesting because most people don't get enough natural sunlight every day....sunshine on bare skin and through the eyes is what produces Vitamin D in the body.

A study has found that more than 80% of COVID-19 patients at a hospital in Spain are deficient in vitamin D.

Did you know...when you watch movies, your brain perceives stress in scenes as real. Your brain doesn’t know the difference between a real life stress and perceived stress which can trigger you to eat.

Makes my blood boil...this kind of thing plays a huge part in creating food addicts 😡

'Kidfluencers' are often filmed by their parents conducting science experiments, reviewing toys or celebrating birthdays and get paid whopping amounts by advertisers.

Is milk really good for you? Science says NO...

By Thomas Campbell, MD

A large observational cohort study[1] in Sweden found that women consuming more than 3 glasses of milk a day had almost twice the mortality over 20 years compared to those women consuming less than one glass a day. In addition, the high milk-drinkers did not have improved bone health. In fact, they had more fractures, particularly hip fractures.

Interestingly, the study also found that fermented milk products (cheese and yogurt) significantly decreased mortality and fractures among these women. For each serving of these fermented dairy products, the rate of mortality and hip fractures was reduced by 10-15%. The researchers pin the negative effects of liquid milk on D-galactose, a breakdown product of lactose that has been shown to be pro-inflammatory. Milk has much more D-galactose than does cheese or yogurt

Food addiction has to be suffocated, not mollycoddled.

True Story.

Food addiction cannot be treated with a weight loss program. It has to be treated as you would deal with any habitual sin.

Super chuffed with myself! I made 💯 fat-free protein muffins using lentils and veggies...

Recovering food addicts should stay away from carbs so this is perfect. And filling.

Soak red lentils in water for 3 hours then process to a liquid using a little water to help it along. Add a handful of veggies. I used mushroom, grated carrot, tomato and onion. Add 1 TBS nutritional yeast and spices.

Place in muffin tray and bake till golden brown. I used an air fryer and silicone cups.

Delish 👌

Someone asked how to deal with cravings as you transition from cooked food to raw. Here's the answer >>> overeat on fruit!

I agree! I am still fighting overeating on the whole (when I eat cooked food), but one of the best things to do is eat a huge amount of fruit each day.

21/09/2020

These are my current go-to salads so that I can make sure I get enough raw food in my daily diet.

I simply add them to meals.

How to make them:

1. Cabbage & Mayo: shred cabbage finely and toss in mayo
2. Coconut Carrot: shred carrots, add a handful of chopped apricots and dash on some coconut cream
3. Sweet 'n Sour Cucumber: use a food processor to grate cucumber (about half a cucumber). Add this to equal parts cooled boiled water and apple cider vinegar, a dash of garlic, 1/2 tsp dried dill, salt and pepper and sweetener (I use healthy fructose)
4. Fermented cabbage is not something I like but I have 1 TBS per day to replace good gut bacteria

So pretty!

THIS IS REAL ..... “Calico corn” is not only real but also EDIBLE. The kernels look like jellybeans, don’t they? It’s a rare strain of corn called Glass Gem.

Best described as a.... concoction...

This is a flat bread thing made from lentils, water and buckwheat. On top of it is a mountain of salad capped with a bean Pattie.

A nice li'l fruit salad....1 apple, handful sunflower seeds, less of a handful pumpkin seeds, some raisins, a dollop peanut butter, 1/2 celery stick, 1 TSP honey for naughtiness.

Lovely simple salad: carrots, apricot, Sharon fruit and a tad coconut cream.

Did you know that your p**p tells a story?

In days gone by, if you visited the doctor, he would inquire about your p**p...

So, what does your p**p type say?

Here are a few examples, without going into too much detail:

Type 1: Typical for post-antibiotic treatments and for people attempting fiber-free (low-carb) diets.

Type 2: To attain this form, the stools must be in the colon for at least several weeks instead of the normal 72 hours. That means you are eating the wrong stuff because it's not digesting properly.

Type 3: Irritable bowel syndrome is likely.

Type 4: This form is normal for someone defecating once daily.

Type 5: Ideal and shows the person is p**ping regularly as should be the case (about 3 times daily).

Type 6: The person may have a slightly hyperactive colon or has a hypersensitive personality prone to stress, or eats too many spices, drinks water with a high mineral content, or the use of osmotic (mineral salts) laxatives.

Type 7: This is diarrhea.

Was having a ball with too much cooked foods and fats for a while but back on track today with high raw. With this meal I included a large glass of orange juice, and the salad is fully raw.

As with most things regarding the body, we get fevers for a very good reason...

The more processed the food, the more addicted we become, and the worse it is for our health.

Then you actually have to take action.

Your immune system = your internal fighters.

All you need to know about your internal fighter, AKA, your immune system.

I've always needed to eat fruit...when you eat a variety of fresh fruit every day, it stops sweet cravings and builds your immune system as fruit contains a plethora of nutrients your body needs.

Often you will crave sweet things because your body is trying to tell you it needs you to eat fruit!
