Meal Suggestion – Breakfast

By phil · Comments (0)

Friday, July 16th, 2010

The plate of food in this picture shows a balanced healthy meal, that has protein fat and carbohydrates, all without any processing.

2 Eggs, fried in olive oil, mushrooms and grilled Tomato.

This is what we are talking about when we ask our clients to eat healthily.

To adjust to your specific Metabolic Type, you would just alter the proportions. In the picture you have approx 50% Protein and 50% carbohydrate.

For the Slow Oxidiser you would need to increase your carbohydrate amount whilst lowering the protein percentage.

For the Fast Oxidiser increasing the protein amount and lowering the carbohydrate percentage.

What could be simpler?

What are the health benefits to drinking cranberry juice?

Regarding seratonin release, Charles Poliquin has been quoted to say

“If your morning urine is overly acidic, and you also suffer from early morning fatigue, Licorice is probably the best adrenal rebuilding supplement for you. Take 2 tablets upon awakening, and two more with your lunch meal.”

“Cranberry juice in the morning will raise serotonin, wrong time of day… you can’t look at the World through a straw”

Suicide By Sugar

It is a dangerous, addictive white powder that can be found in abundance throughout this

country. Once associated only with cavities and simple weight gain, it is now linked to a host of devastating health conditions including cancer, epilepsy, dementia, hypoglycemia, obesity, and more. In this book, sugar addiction expert Dr. Nancy Appleton and health writer G.N. Jacobs not only expose the exorbitant levels of sugar we ingest, but also document the connection between our current health crisis and our sweet tooth.

Health Tip
Sugar Affects Kids Worse Than Adults.

Sugar may be worse for kids than it is for adults because kids react so strongly and with much wilder swings of body chemistry. The immune system is still developing the acquired immunity to fight off infections, and the digestive system must learn to handle the variety of foods in our diet. A child’s body is learning and working continually, and sugar just causes it to work harder. These body chemistry changes not only cause physical ailments, such as allergies and asthma, but have also, in many studies put children on a roller coaster of emotional effects that include hyperactivity, aggressiveness, sadness, low self-esteem, mania, sleeplessness, and many more.
