The Evolution of Healthy Diets

Article Description:

====================

First there is S.A.D. (standard American diet). This diet tends

to make people fat and sick. Then there is the vegetarian diet.

All plant foods have lots of fiber unless it is taken out like

with refined wheat and white rice. Animal foods have no fiber.

Fiber keeps your colon clean and healthy reducing your chances of

cancer and cardiovascular problems. Four thousand studies show

that fruit and vegetables prevent cancer. Meat encourages the

growth of cancer.

The Evolution of Healthy Diets

First there is S.A.D. (standard American diet). This diet tends

to make people fat and sick. Then there is the vegetarian diet.

All plant foods have lots of fiber unless it is taken out like

with refined wheat and white rice. Animal foods have no fiber.

Fiber keeps your colon clean and healthy reducing your chances of

cancer and cardiovascular problems. Four thousand studies show

that fruit and vegetables prevent cancer. Meat encourages the

growth of cancer.

The Chinese eat mostly plant foods and have a much lower rates of

cancer and cardiovascular disease than Americans. Plant foods

have a lot of unsaturated fat while meat has a lot of saturated

fat. The unsaturated fats are healthier for you than the

saturated fats. Some vegetarians eat eggs and dairy products.

Dairy products create sinus and respiratory problems. Since

donuts and candy are vegetarian, people can eat a very unhealthy

vegetarian diet. The basic rule to eating healthy is to eat foods

made by God or nature and avoid foods made by man that are

designed to make you fat and addicted to food since that is best

for their business.

Albert Einstein, Leonardo Da Vinci, Pythagoras and Socrates were

vegetarians. Current vegetarians include Brad Pitt, Pamela

, Hoffman, Kate Winslet, Shatner, Avril

Lavigne, Newman, Chelsea Clinton (daughter of President Bill

Clinton and Senator Hillary Clinton), McCartney, Shania

Twain, Newman, Drew Barrymore, Clint Eastwood and Allysa

Milano.

Then there is the more restrictive vegan diet that

Portman and Siverstone follow. This means eating no animal

products including dairy products. Then there are even more

restrictive diets than this. One is the fruitarian diet where

people eat only fruit. This includes foods that come from the

reproductive system of the plant like nuts, seeds, eggplant,

cucumbers, pumpkins, tomatoes and more. With this diet, no plants

are killed or harmed. The one that is popular now is the raw food

movement. Raw foodists eat only raw food or mostly raw food and

this food is also vegan food.

This diet is close to how animals eat. But there is a diet that

is just like what the animals use. The animals know what is good

for them by instinct. How does it work? They just eat whatever

tastes good. Humans also have this instinct. They eat raw food

and whatever tastes good is good for them. This way you do not

need to worry if the oxalic acid in spinach prevents the

absorption of iron or if oranges are bad for people with certain

blood types and all this nonsense. This is why babies are always

putting things in their mouth. Their instinct will tell them if

it is bad for them. Note that man can make rat poison that tastes

like healthy food but kills the rat. So eating the foods that

tastes the best does not include foods altered or cooked by man.

If you put raw poisonous mushrooms (toadstools) in your mouth,

you will spit them out since they taste so bitter. But if they

are cooked, you can eat them and die. So if you are stranded in

the woods with no food, you can use this to find good food to

eat. It is possible to overeat raw foods when they are mixed

together.

But animals in nature eat only one food at a time. If you do

this, then you will never overeat a food. You will not want any

more when you have had enough. This is how the animals eat. Also

this applies to any raw food even if it is not vegetarian.

This diet is called the instincto diet. People on this diet will

try eating anything raw. It could be that many of the benefits of

eating raw food comes from not eating any (or very little) salt.

Salt is not a food. Put 3 ounces of salt in water and drink it

and you will die. Salt causes water to not be able to work. That

is why you can die of dehydration being on a raft in the ocean

surrounded by billions of gallons of water. Vitamins and minerals

have a minimum R.D.A. (recommended daily allowance). But sodium

has a maximum R.D.A.

Trudeau (author of Natural Cures) believes that the raw

food diet is the healthiest diet but he does not follow it now.

There are health experts that are against eating 100% raw. But

(and this is a big but) they don't suggest what percentage of

raw food is best, whether it be 95% or 5%. By not eating meat,

you do more to help the ecology of the planet and protect against

global warming than doing anything else including switching to a

hybrid car. In a groundbreaking 2006 report, the United Nations

(U.N.) said that raising animals for food generates more

greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide) than

all the cars and trucks in the world combined!
