There are plenty of choices with a plant based diet.

I love my healthy plant food diet. The longer you eat a healthy plant based diet, the better the healthy foods taste. Over time you will lose your cravings for the unhealthy food and drink addictions that you've grown up with. If you can give up/limit processed sugar, salt, and oil, your taste buds will become very sensitive to the natural tastes that are sweet and healthy for you. You will never know what I am talking about unless you give this a try. I sincerely hope that you do. I believe that once you have attained a healthy diet, you will never go back.

Healthy eating is the best for you, and the best for the earth. If the people on the earth would transition to a plant based diet, there would be much less hunger. For instance, instead of using so much land to grow food for animals we could be feeding people instead.

Eating a plant based diet becomes spiritual, because you know you are doing what is best for you, and best for the earth. I sincerely hope you think about transitioning to a plant based diet. http://www.drfuhrman.com/ http://www.drmcdougall.com/

Please pass the antelope milk...

Image
From a fellow blogger: "Let's really think about it. Why does anyone feel compelled to drink cow's milk? Why would anyone find it necessary to nurse on a cow three times a day? Why not an antelope? Would you be appalled if someone served you a glass of antelope milk to drink? Yuck. But maybe you'd gladly take that cow's milk, containing hormones, pesticides, pus, and any assortment of antibiotics, dioxins, bovine cancer cells- all kinds of bad stuff. There have been countless studies that show milk can have debilitating effects on a wide assortment of people. Kids can have unknown allergies to it. It may even be related to autism when the milk proteins (which humans aren't great at digesting) cross over into the bloodstream and mess with the nervous system. And the whole calcium thing. How does every other animal have strong bones? Drinking cow's milk? No. From the foods they eat. A cow gets its calcium from the grass and grains it eats. But most cows

Ever notice the color of a piece of cooked meat?

Image
By Greg Kaler While still making the foundation of our diet plant foods, my wife and I have gone back to occasionally eating free range ground turkey and wild caught fish. Doctor Joel Fuhrman's stance on 2-3 small servings of animal foods a week did affect our decision: http://greg-foodforthought.blogspot.com/2011/05/to-live-in-most-health-pro-opting-way.html , however I have myself to blame first- my weak mind going back to unhealthy, addictive habits that I've had most of my life. Ideally, for the best health I should not be eating any food from animals. That said... Before going back to turkey and fish I had been a vegan for two years- no animal foods whatsoever. Besides no meat, I was used to no junk foods at all, very low processed sugar, very low added salt. My tastes buds were and are very healthy, very sensitive to the sweetness and wonderful flavors of plant foods. Fruits and vegetables of course are very colorful. When we now cook ground turkey patties, we put only a
