No grains? No potatoes? Hmm…
Potatoes are veggies and whole grains are wonderful but not essential: https://youtu.be/OCRTpSyrY58
I'm assuming potatoes would fall into the "other" vegetables, but I agree there should be room for grains
Yes, potatoes are vegetables and this is why whole grains are not included here: https://youtu.be/OCRTpSyrY58
Wonderful! Going to print this out. Thank you!
Yep! all ticked !
Of course no grains. Grains were a staple in every culture, but the grains we have today aren't like they were. From the grounds they are grown in, to the air and sprays that fall on them to the way they are harvested and processed. There is too much toxicity in grains for most humans to be able to digest properly.
Luckily there is cauliflower rice, zucchini for pasta as well as black bean pasta. You can use sweet potato over normal potato… It says coloured veg.
Hi just to make sure I understand………you are not saying to eat “only” these items each day. You are saying make sure you are getting at least these amounts of these items in these proportions each day along with other plant based foods. Correct?
Yes, I am recommending prioritizing these food groups (and some movement) each day, as they provide the most nutritional bang for their caloric buck.
Thank you 🙂
