General kitchen advice

• 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.


Buy Seasonal Food : If you're eating foods out of season, it's likely that they have come a long way - try to eat food that is both locally produced and can be found at that time of year, locally!




Dieting tips

The Atkins’ Diet
First invented by doctor atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet has been one of the most popular weight loss systems over the last few years. Popular with many famous celebrities, it supposedly allows weight loss whilst allowing you to eat many of the foods you love, like fatty meat and hard cheeses.
Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet it is considered good to eat fat and protein, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. It is often referred to as a high protein, low carb, weight loss program.
With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, amongst them, cereals and pasta made from white flour.
With this diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods such as meat, fish & poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter & olive oil.

The Atkins’ Diet Theory
The logic behind the popular atkins diet is that even though our bodies use both fats and carbs to burn into glucose, it is the carbs that are burned primarily. If we eat fewer carbs, we will utilise the fat we already carry and we will lose weight. Although inviting, this theory is controversial, not all researchers agree and quite a few feel it can sometimes be bad for your health.
