General tips

Time for cooking is often in short supply, but you can cut cooking time in half by making large batches and eating the leftovers another day. In an age when the average American spends only 32 minutes a day preparing food, strategy is crucial to increasing your consumption of local food.


Try Eating Raw Food : You need a balance of three basic food groups as most of your diet:

• sweet fruits (apples, oranges, berries, melons, etc.)
• green leaves (dark lettuce, kale, collards, spinach, etc.)
• raw plant fats (avocados, olives & their oil, coconuts & their oil, nuts & seeds, durian)
Eat lots of sweet fruit, lots of green leaves, and some fat (as dressing, pâté, hummus, etc.). Add vegetables as desired, and sprouted grains and legumes occasionally. Try fruit for breakfast and snacks; greens, veggies and fat for lunch and dinner.




Diet types

A low calorie weight loss regime

Put simply, the low calorie diet is based on the fact that if you are going to reduce weight, the most important step is to take in less calories than you use.

What is a calorie?
The calorie is a unit for measuring food's ability to produce heat and energy. A food calorie is the the energy required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at normal atmospheric pressure. If a food contains more calories, then it will turn into more energy when consumed.

Low calorie food types include watercress, cabbage, watermelon, beef based meals, and low-fat cheese.
