Avoiding the consumption of meat is not really a wise action, except for vegetarians. Red meat is a good source of protein and rich in essential minerals to the body, such as iron, zinc, manganese, and vitamin B-vitamins such as thiamine, riboflavin, and niacin. To avoid excess fat, we can only choose meat contains less fat.

Is it true that the perception that mutton fat was higher compared to other meats? Presumably the goat meat is known as a trigger of hypertension, it has a fat and calorie content lower than other livestock meat. In 100 grams of lamb contained 154 calories, 9.2 mg of fat, saturated fat and 3.6 mg. Whereas in 100 grams of beef contained 207 calories, 14 mg of fat, saturated fat and 51 mg. In the chicken contained 302 calories, 25 mg of fat, saturated fat and 0.9 mg. Based on these data, goat meat is considered as the meat is good enough for consumption and is suitable as an option for people who are doing the diet because the degree of acidity with a pH close to the human body so that your body will be easy to adjust.

We can eat meat to minimize the risk of weight gain or increased cholesterol, in the following way:

    If we buy imported meat in the supermarket. should do check the label or ask the seller, what grade of meat that we will buy. Label “Selec C” or label “Good” indicates that most low-fat meat. Labeled “Choice” contains slightly higher fat, and the label “Prime” is the most high-fat meat.
    Limiting the amount of meat consumption, especially of beef sausage.
    Separating the fat from meat before cooking.
    The meat was grilled better than fried meat.
    Restrict each portion of food with meat that weighs 3-5 ounces.
    Avoid eating more than 5-7 servings of meat each week.

Living the life as worthy is the key to success reflecting our daily endeavors. The question is – do we know how to live our lives that can be considered as worthy? What standard do we use to measure? Do we really need it? The questions can be far more than we can imagine and the answers can be arriving from various angles. However, for simplicity, these questions above are enough for us to quiz for some reasonable answers. Let us start!

First, every individual on this earth has always striving for an easy living – a life that consists of wealth, health, and happiness. Second, beyond the present living, everyone wish to leave behind a worthy legacy for the next generation. The wish is centering on the idea of good historical of oneself that the next generation can imitate and speak positive about him or her.

The question is – what the ultimate standard that he or she can utilize that would be considered by the next generation as worthy.  Well, this can be arriving from different focuses depending upon the culture and social life style that he or she has been living within.

For example, Japanese can be more of a community consideration, based on the saving face. They will find a way to fix the problem behind the scene or prefix the problem before the scheduled meeting. They take time to labor the case until the issue has been solved, then they schedule for the meeting to bring in a good result of the case. We can think of this method as the social collaboration behind the scene.

Unlike Japanese people,  American people are more aggressive. They are easily willing to talk in public regardless of the face-saving. When facing problem, they will call upon others to the meeting and solve the problem right away in a large group. At the meeting, they are discussion the concerning issue and find a way to fix it.

Finally, do we really need to live the life as a model for the generation after? The answer is depending upon the individual pursuant. Just, like I have stated previously: everyone wishes to life a worthy life that can mirror as positive legacy for his or her next generation to imitate. How about you, what is your life-legacy preference?

Pollution in food is due to the harmful substances in food. In the flesh of animals, harmful substances in it is the antibiotics and hormones. Both substances are typically injected in order to more quickly cut the chicken or the egg-laying.

In plants or vegetables are also the same, namely the provision of insecticides and pesticides by farmers. Usually the residues of chemical substances will be deposited on vegetables. If the vegetables we eat every day, then the residue will settle in the human body. Other hazardous substances is a preservative commonly found in foods such as salted fish, tofu, meatballs, and so forth. Not to mention the presence of formalin in a particular food.

Hazardous substances contained in foods if it enters the body will cause the growth of free radicals increases. Free radicals will damage the proteins, enzymes, and genetic materials that are the core where the DNA is formed. Mutations in the nuclei of these cells can cause cancer.

According to the world, more than 90% of modern man died of the disease and more than 90% of abnormal cells (cancer cells) caused by the polluted environment through food and drinks. In America, one in three people affected by cancer and every one in five people die of cancer.

Solutions to overcome this is to return to natural foods without chemicals and preservatives. However, it is still quite difficult to do. What can be done is to eat raw food or raw foods, like vegetables and fruits are not cooked, but cleanliness is maintained. These foods will provide nutrients for the body because of its rich enzymes, chlorophyll, vitamins, minerals, and fitronutrien which serves as a natural antioxidant.

Through antioxidant systems, both the enzyme and nonenzim, our body is able to protect themselves and fight free radicals. Antioxidant enzymes including superoxide dismutase (SOD), caralase, and glutathione peroxidase which will convert free radicals into oxygen and water which will then be removed from the body.

Fitting In

Some may want to fit it.  They do not have dreams of hitting it big, neither do they want to bother about those things.  All one such person desires is having some good friends.  Friends that that they can rely on.  Those that he loves and love him in return.  To such an individual such a relationship is precious.  They will go places together and tell each other jokes.  They laugh, cry, and share their experiences.  These are the moments that tell tomes about the love that people have for each other.

Friends must be loyal.  They should show compassion and walk the walk.  Each person has to walk in each others shoes and be happy about it.  They defend one another and give support.  Running, they breathe the same air.  Many times they finish each others sentences.  It is as though they know what each one is thinking.  Friends are more than special, yet they are normal.  They really do not have to do anything special but be companions and show their love.  Such normalcy is paramount in such a relationship.

Living An Ordinary Lifestyle

Living an ordinary lifestyle as simple as it may seem, may be the way to go.  It does not call for anything lavish.  All that is necessary is for a friend to have material things that most middle class families have.  Many of these persons  enjoy their lives and live with contentment.  They do not have to live with excesses.  With such satisfaction, they know that they have settled for a simplicity – one that a person can afford.

Being a friend among friends is a marvellous thing.  Everyone knows his limitations and lives according to what he can afford.  There is no big fuss.  These people look at their main objectives as living lives that mean a great deal more than being extravagant.  These are some of the things that they have discussed and the conclusions that they have reached.  They love their life the way that it is and do not wish to embellish it any further.  It is with these considerations that these friends agree to live.        

Past Time

It is agreed that there should be no excesses.  A friend with many friends will go to any length to preserve their relationships.  Friends that are normal do not splurge lavishly.  They tend to economize and look for bargains.  Many wear clothes that are priced moderately.  Go on vacations that are inexpensive and prefer to participate in rather low key social events.

These people love their freedom and will do anything to preserve their beliefs.  They are individualists and plan on living life fully.  Much of this is done with taste and dignity.  Even when playing, exercising or participating in sports, these friends will not overdo it.  They realize that they have to do so in order to live a rather sensible and controlled lifestyle.

- – -

Living a normal lifestyle is chosen by some people because they simply feel that is the best thing to do.  In many instances, this may be determined by a person’s economic situation.  Others may decide to choose this way of life because they just want to live rather simply.  As a matter of fact, these friends work to defend these principles and stand up for what they think in their judgement is right.

Do you know that your brain needs oil? Do you know the value of nuts such as raw sunflower seeds, raw pumpkin seeds, raw flax seeds, raw sesame seeds, raw almonds and linseed? Grind a tablespoon of each of these ingredients together, add it to a glass of warm water and drink within five minutes for a revitalizing start to your day. Chew the seeds to avoid waste and to give your brain a full-on health explosion. This would be a particularly good brain food for sufferers of Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s.

Understanding the nuts and bolts of raw nuts

Centuries ago people had no cars, no telephones, no factories with smoking chimneys, no around-the-clock radiation from cell phones and laptops and no pollution. Hunter gatherers ate the wild berries and nuts they picked from trees. They were the super vegetarians and survived. Today we have kids of four and five with cell phones and play stations and all kinds of computer games requiring electricity, and our bodies are polluted by smoke and radiation not to mention the ingestion of sugary and fatty foods which are bad for us. Figure it out. We are toxic human beings.

Have a gang-buster approach to good health

·                     Take charge of your body and decide today to rid yourself of toxins and feed your body only with the nutrients it needs.

·                     Read up on the super brain foods and nuts you have to eat for good hair, supple skin, fewer aches and pains, and a sharp memory. You will find all the nuts mentioned above play a part.

·                     Eat a healthy brain food breakfast such as the one mentioned above, have a salad and some protein for lunch, or if you prefer, have another nutty meal drink. Make sure to eat a healthy supper consisting of vegetables and protein.

·                     Cut out ALL sugar and biscuits and chocolates. You will find that the sugar coming from the mangoes and other fruit will be enough for you.

·                     When dishing up your food, have half the plate with veggies and the other half divided in two, for either chicken or beef. Don’t mix your meats.

·                     Drink a lot of water, especially after the chewy nuts you’ve ingested.

·                     If you include a colon cleanse in your regime, the best way to go about it is to have it no more than once or twice a year. Remember, the colon has its own good bacteria to protect it and you don’t want to interfere with the flora.

·                     If you’re overweight and want to lose pounds, this is an excellent form of eating to not only help you lose weight, but to eat healthily and consistently without getting bored and snacking on chips or cake. I am eating this way now for a week, am not hungry in between meals, and have lost three pounds.

Lately, we hear a lot of dreadful news about the health effects of meat consumption. Even some studies say, the consumption of red meat has contributed to an increased risk of breast cancer, colon, and kidney.

Hearing these findings, no wonder if many people are turning to vegetarianism. Many people consider a diet high in vegetables and fruits sufficient to meet the daily nutritional needs. They think to consume vegetal protein (plant) is considered more secure than animal protein.

If you think so, it’s not entirely true. After all, meat consumption is still needed to run body’s vital metabolic functions, in addition to also provide a lot of energy.

The following are three (3) the benefits of meat consumption for health support:

1. Meat contains a large number of proteins that are essential for the body. Protein can help improve overall health in addition to other benefits such as improvement and development of body tissues, as well as producing antibodies that will protect the body from infection, thereby strengthening the immune system. In essence, because meat contains all essential amino acids, they stay in the top as one of the best sources of protein.

2. Beside rich in nutrients, meat is the best source of iron, zinc and selenium. Iron in hemoglobin has an important function in helping to carry oxygen to various body parts. As for zinc, helps in tissue formation and metabolism. While selenium break down fat and chemicals in the body.

3. Vitamins are essential nutrients that can be met through food intake. Vitamin A, B and D could actually be found in meat. The benefits of vitamins are not only promoting eye health, strong teeth and bones but also supported the work of the central nervous system that promotes mental health as well. Not only that, the consumption of meat can also make your skin more healthy.

A vegetarian is basically defined as someone who does not eat meat, whether it’s red meat or white meat. But there are vegetarians who go for a diet that includes dairy products such as milk, eggs and cheese. This type of vegetarian is called a lacto ovo vegetarian. (Lacto is Latin for “milk,” ovo is Latins for “egg”). Lacto ovo vegetarians consume eggs, milk, and cheese and other food products that contain these ingredients. A lacto vegetarian, however, consumes milk and cheese products, but does not eat eggs and other foods that contain egg.

A vegan is someone who does not eat or use any animal product or by-product, such as dairy food. A vegan’s diet is plant-based and this includes vegetables, nuts, grains and legumes. They avoid any product that may have been processed with a substance derived from animal products. Veganism is both a diet preference and a lifestyle, as it strictly adheres to a no-meat diet and a way of life that respects living things that have blood.

Fruitarians are another type of vegetarian. They eat only fruits, because they believe that fruits are a gift from the earth and are the most natural type of food.

All the above mentioned vegetarians eat cooked vegetables, fruits, nuts and legumes. However, some vegetarians have taken a step further by moving towards a raw food regimen. Raw food eaters believe that cooking food reduces the significant nutrients already present in its uncooked state. Raw fruits and vegetables, therefore, will provide more vitamins and nutrients to their consumers.

If you ever decide to become a vegetarian, consult a physician or a nutrition expert about the necessary proteins and vitamins you need to maintain good health.

Alright, now for those who do not have time to read this book, you do not have to. You can just follow these simple rules I will give you and it will make an enormous difference in your life. You will say goodbye to gassiness (trust me), bloated stomach, stomach aches, breakouts in your skin, cellulite (that was a big one for me), tiredness…and the list goes on! Enjoy!

Here we go!

1. Eat fruits on an empty stomach:

This is very important, because when you eat fruits after foods like starches or proteins, the fruits will ferment in your stomach and will create toxins.

The best time to eat fruits is in the morning! I eat fruits up untill 12pm!

(Vegetables are not the same as fruits. You can eat them when you want to.)

2. Let your body cleanse itself in the morning

Try not to eat right when you wake up, as your body will not have time to cleanse itself. You can take your time to wake up, drink a glass of hot water with lemon, get dressed and then eat only if you are hungry.

3. Starches and proteins do NOT go together:

Eating fruits with starches is OK, eating fruits with proteins is OK, eating vegetables with starches is OK and eating vegetables with proteins is OK.

Eating starches with proteins (even if you eat vegetables with it) is NOT good for you…I know it is difficult to leave the rice aside when you are having chicken, or leave the meat aside when you are having pasta, but it is possible to get in the habit of it. I did, and I feel so much better!

Eating starches and proteins at the same time is very hard to digest and it takes too much energy. You feel tired after you eat your meal. If you eat both seperately, you will not feel so tired.

4. Eat less often, but eat enough

We all heard that eating often and alot of snacks was good for us because they kept our metabolism “going”. However, when we do that, we do not give ourselves a break from digesting, so our energy cannot be used to either repair our hair, heal our scars, and so on.

Eating 3 meals a day with a 3 to 4 hour break between each meal is the best way to go. Make sure you are satisfied and full after one meal, or you will crave snacks.

5. light to heavy

Try to eat light foods like fruits early in the day and eat the heavier foods like meat later in the day. If you do not eat meat, try leaving the starches and proteins for dinner and eating a light lunch, like a salad.

A good menu example:

BREAKFAST:

A glass of water with lemon, followed with a celery stick (good alkaline) then a grapefruit

LUCH:

Green salad topped with sunflower seeds and pumkin seeds with a veggy soup or a veggy sandwich (ex: avocado sandwich)

DINNER:

Start with a green salad or veggy sticks (celery, green peppers) and follow with your favorite protein (meat or beans) and veggies (cooked if you prefer).

Now, you are ready to start a new lifestyle!

Thank you Kimberly for your great book “The Beauty Detox Solution”.

I will soon write more articles on vegetarianism, gluten free recipes and healthy eating habits for those interested.

Eggs can be quite tricky as they come from hens. Most vegetarians do not include eggs in their diets because they consider that if they eat them they are not protecting the animal life.
As it can be appreciated, vegetarians can also follow a healthy eating plan. You can provide your organism with all the nutrients it requires in order to be full of energy and ready to perform different activities. Do not let others misguide you or discourage you from adopting this eco friendly life style. Vegetarians, even the strictest ones, have nothing to fear about doing any damage to their bodies.
