Simple Meal Plans.
As you gradually change your diet to follow the laws of nature, try to
incorporate some of these simple meal plans throughout your transition.
Plan
A
Breakfast: Pick one of the following but don’t mix them.
1. One or two pieces of fruit
2. A large glass of fresh milk.(if
you can’t get fresh milk stick with the fruit or grains)
3. Some type of sprouted grain(if
you have a physically demanding morning)
Lunch:
1. Choose
some type of healthy grain whether you sprout it yourself or you buy
manna bread. This can be flavored with real butter, salt, soy sauce, or
herbs.
2. If you want, accompany this with
a good salad or some type of vegetable dish. Try not to mix sweet
fruits at this meal because grains and sugars cause fermentation and
bloating.
3. Save those pieces of fruit for a
snack if you get hungry in between lunch and dinner.
Dinner:
Stay as light as you can here so that body can easier get into rest
mode to get a good nights sleep instead of working hard to digest a
heavy meal.
- A good salad and soup is light
and filling in the evenings. Or make it even simpler and choose just
one of them a salad or soup.
If you do eat something heavier
than this just try and keep the portion as small as possible.
In the beginning try
and follow these plans just two days a week. The other days, eat your
normal diet but just try and cut back on the amount if you are use to
eating a lot. After 4-6 weeks add a third day of simple meals
to your transition.
Same as before, eat
your regular diet on the other days trying to cut back on the amount
and maybe make some healthier choices with those meals. After 4-6 weeks
add a 4th day of
simple meals to your health regime. Do this for four to six weeks and
then a fifth day of
simple meals to your eating plan.
Once you’ve reached five days a week of eating simple meals you have
come a long way and should be very proud. Try and keep your simple
meals throughout the week as you work and if you eat some junk foods
save them more for the weekends or holidays.
Plan B
Once you feel ok with plan A then try and simplify
even more by moving to plan B. This is how the Essenes and some of the
healthiest cultures in the world eat.
Breakfast:
Only one type of liquid. Don’t mix the following.
1. One fresh
squeezed lemon in 6-8 oz. of water.
2. 6-8 oz. of fresh milk
3. Herbal tea
4. Coconut water
5. One or Two Shots of wheatgrass
Lunch:
- Some type of sprouted grain or
manna bread with your choice of flavoring.
Accompanied with any type of salad or vegetables.
- If you feel like snacking before
dinner eat some fruit. This helps to curb your appetite at dinner.
Dinner:
Stay as light as possible here by choosing something that is mostly
liquid.
1. A large glass of
fresh milk
2. Some type of fruit
3. Soup
As you incorporate these
ideas into your eating plan become aware of
how you feel after every meal that you eat. Notice how much lighter you
feel and how much more energy you have when you eat simpler meals that
are easier to digest. Become aware of the poor foods and food
combinations that make you tired when you eat them. Think of your body
as a living laboratory and you are the scientist trying to discover
what makes your internal environment function smooth, comfortable, and
efficient. And remember......
Beauty Lies in Simplicity
so use the KISS method (Keep It Simple
Stupid)
