Food tips

Buy Local Food : Begin by taking baby steps, such as committing to spend £10 pounds a week on locally grown foods.


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.

Some of the recipes from this source were in German, some in a mixture of German and English. Since this particular recipe was all in German, I assume it refers to German pounds. A german pound - 500 grams - is slightly larger than the American pound - 454 grams. K.B.))
