Getting Started with Raw Food...

Over the last decade, I've reviewed a bunch of health programs, diets and challenges.  Most of them were either too hard for the average person to do, had obvious mistakes, and others were downright dangerous.  These are programs you never heard about from me and never will.

I want to help you succeed - easily and safely.

Recently I found one program that really resonated with me and I'm excited to try it.

The program was created by bestselling author and health expert Kevin Gianni.  I've been following Kevin's work and he's really raised the bar when it comes to cutting-edge and whole food nutrition.  While most nutritionists and health gurus are preaching nutrition news from the 1960's, Kevin has taken the best of nature and modern science and helped create something that can literally change your life.

The program is called "The Raw Food Challenge" and it is a 7 day plan to help you detoxify your body, lose weight and get more energy than you've felt in years.

The raw food diet has been embraced by doctors and nutritionists as one of the best ways to detoxify and lose weight. Even New York Times bestselling author Dr. Oz talks about the benefits of eating raw foods. Celebrities as well have used raw foods to stay slim and in shape for movies and TV.

So naturally, raw foods have been my radar for a while. Any of you that know me will know that when I heard from Kevin about this program, I was ready to try it.  Come and join me...

Take The 7 Day Challenge With Me

I think this program is the one thing that could snap you back on track with your eating and diet.  It's easy enough to do and the results can be significant.  One person who recently went through the program lost 11 pounds (her husband lost 8).

The Raw Food Challenge will help you lose weight and get more energy and the best news is that you don't have to eat raw foods for the rest of your life to get results...

It's only 7 days, and even though that's a short time, you will actually start to see dramatic results in your energy and your waist line.

In fact, Kevin guarantees it.

I just want you to join me for this challenge and explore this way of eating for one short week, since I know how dramatically it could transform the way you feel.

The 7 Day Challenge

I promise you won't be eating rabbit food either...

I've taken a look at the recipes and they do look really tasty and filling!

What's even better is that "The Raw Food Challenge is a complete program with all your meals and recipes laid out for you.  There's even a shopping list you can take to the grocery store with you.

Kevin also tells me that you won't pay a much for your produce and the meals take a TOTAL of 15-20 minutes a day to prepare.

The Raw Food Challenge has just been released and there are thousands and thousands of people who are stepping up to take this challenge together.  In fact, starting May 2nd, Kevin will be coaching you and those brave enough to step-up to the challenge through phone support.  This is an added bonus to the program, but you have to sign up soon to make sure your slot for this unique coaching is reserved.

Now is your time to take action too.... maybe it will help you get out of a rut or recharge your system or better yet, help you lose a couple of extra pounds in only a week.

Healthy Food Combinations

Healthy Food Combinations
Please feel free to pass this page on to anyone you feel may benefit from the information.

Article - AstroNutrition - January 27, 2009

Eating healthy is great but to ensure that you are truly getting the most out of your healthy meals it is important to look at food parings. Some food pairings can enhance the nutritional value of each other, while other foods eaten together can actually cause harm to your body.

Certain foods play well with others, while others lose strength in pairs.

1. Tomato & Avocado. Separately, these two are both so good for you but together they are even better. Tomatoes contain high amounts of the antioxidant lycopene and eaten with avocado actually makes the body absorb seven times more lycopen than it normally would. Avocados contain healthy unsaturated fats and any food containing fat will release more antioxidants* in the vegetable. If you aren't a fan of tomato and avocado you can also use olive oil on your vegetables or in your salad dressing to get the same effect.

2. Grapes & Apples. These two foods are a great pairing as a snack alone or within a fruit salad. Apples contain a flavonoid called quercetin and grapes contain catechin. Pairing apples and grapes with each other actually makes blood platelets less sticky so that they do not cause blood clots or clog arteries.

3. Spinach and oranges. Spinach contains a high amount of calcium and iron and oranges contain a high amount of Vitamin C. Iron and vitamin C eaten together are the perfect pair- vitamin C makes it easier for your body to absorb iron. Try adding mandarin orange slices to your spinach salad or drink orange juice with oatmeal or iron enriched cereal.

Along with eating healthy combos you should also drink healthy combos. A couple of pairings to avoid altogether are alcohol and energy drinks as well as alcohol and diet soda. Not only are they extremely dehydrating, but the amount of caffeine found in energy drinks is terrible for your body. Stick to good old water or naturally flavored juices.

Antioxidants*

Some Tips on Do's and Don't's for mixing foods

DO mix grilled steak and Brussels sprouts
It turns out that certain compounds in Brussels sprouts (and other cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli and cauliflower) may help rid the body of carcinogens that can form on meat during high-heat cooking.

That said, loading up on these vegetables doesn't give you license to char meat, chicken, or fish on the barbecue. 'It's always best to cook meat or fish at low temperatures until it's done,' says Kristin E. Anderson, Ph.D., a cancer epidemiologist at the University of Minnesota's School of Public Health and Cancer Center, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. 'And if there are burned pieces, trim them off.'

'Eating a steak or any fatty food with any vegetable can release its antioxidants,' says Steven J. Schwartz, Ph.D., professor of food science at Ohio State University in Columbus. 'But small amounts of healthy unsaturated fats are a better choice.'

So add a little extra-virgin olive oil to your zucchini, spinach, and other dark green vegetables to unleash the carotenoid lutein, an antioxidant that may help protect against age-related macular degeneration. And instead of using fat-free dressing on your salad, drizzle on an olive oil--based one.

DO mix avocado and tomato
Tomatoes, which contain the antioxidant lycopene, are a super food. Eat some avocado at the same time and you've got a super super food -- the fat in the avocado helps the body absorb seven times more lycopene.

DO mix spinach and oranges
Although spinach has lots of iron, your body doesn't absorb it well when spinach is eaten alone. (Sorry, Popeye.) But with vitamin C by its side, this vegetable becomes a true standout.

That's because vitamin C converts the iron in spinach into a form that is more available to the body, says Liz A. Applegate, Ph.D., director of sports nutrition at the University of California, Davis.

This holds true for other vegetarian sources of iron, too, such as broccoli and tofu. It doesn't take a lot of C, either. One medium orange will do. You could also add to a spinach salad half a red pepper, several thick slices of tomato, or 1/2 cup of sliced strawberries -- all good sources of C.

DON'T mix alcohol and energy drinks
While you might not chase a vodka tonic with a Red Bull (like certain celebrity party girls), some teens you know might, and you should tell them it can do more than provide a sizable buzz: It can send them straight to the ER.

This unhealthy combo can cause heart palpitations and breathing difficulties. In severe cases, it could even lead to a heart attack or a stroke, says Roger A. Clemens, Dr. P. H., an associate director of regulatory science at the University of Southern California School of Pharmacy, in Los Angeles.

Overloading the body with stimulants like caffeine, which is found in many energy drinks, and alcohol, which is a depressant and a diuretic, puts tremendous stress on the central nervous system and heart. So put at least a few hours between your caffeine and alcohol consumption. Real Simple: Refreshing summer drinks

DON'T mix alcohol and diet soda
Yes, you'll reduce calories by asking for diet soda in your rum and Coke, but you might get drunk faster. In one recent study, it took just 21 minutes for half a diet cocktail to leave the stomach and reach the small intestine, where most alcohol is absorbed into the bloodstream, while the same amount of a non-diet concoction took 36 minutes.

'The calories provided by food or a sugary mixer slow the emptying of the stomach, so you get drunk less rapidly,' says Chris Rayner, Ph.D., a gastrointestinal researcher who conducted the study at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, in South Australia.

If you still want to stick with sugar-free but don't want to get the spins, have a small snack beforehand, says Rayner. A few slices of cheese and a few crackers contain a good mix of fat, protein, and carbohydrates and should help slow stomach emptying.

DON'T mix coffee and breakfast cereal
Most cereals sold in the United States are fortified with iron. (A good thing, since 1 in 10 women has low iron levels.) Problem is, if you sip coffee while eating your Wheaties, polyphenols, an antioxidant in coffee, can hamper the body's ability to absorb the iron.

Coffee isn't the only offender. Black tea and some herbal teas (including peppermint and chamomile), which also contain polyphenols, have been shown to reduce iron absorption by as much as 94 percent, and hot cocoa cuts it by 71 percent.

The solution? Pour yourself a cup of java before or after your cereal. According to a study published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, a cup of coffee one hour before an iron-rich meal didn't affect absorption. And if you choose to get your fix after breakfast, wait at least an hour or more.

Enzymes


Most Health Foods Can Be . . . a Complete Waste of Money . . (If you are not getting the right supplements to support their effectiveness).Wholefoods.jpg







ENZYMES - are necessary for a healthy diet and lifestyle!

You can take vitamins, minerals and antioxidants by the handful and still suffer poor health. Ditto for a whole variety of 'health foods' such as organic pasta, cereals, bread, fruit juices, milk and more. You can eat all these pure, organic foods and you still won't get a vital nutrient.

The problem is that most people including doctors don't know that enzymes are just as important as vitamins. As a result, there's a nation wide epidemic of diseases that could be prevented by enzyme supplements.

Proteolytic (protein-eating) enzymes are the number two pain reliever in Germany after aspirin. But unlike pain drugs, they're completely safe. You'll see proof in a new Special Report called The Missing Ingredient for Good Health. The report introduces you to a mother whose lifelong migraine headaches disappeared thanks to enzyme supplements.

No wonder German athletes take them by the millions! Placebo-controlled studies show that athletes recover from injuries in half the time when they take enzymes. But there's more . . .

In published medical studies, they outperformed prescription blood clot drugs and - this is really amazing - nine out of ten children with autism experienced 'very great or impressive' improvement after they started enzyme supplements.

Does it sound incredible that one supplement can do all this? Then ask yourself this: What if you had NO vitamins in your diet -- none at all? You'd be very sick. Just as Vitamin C is essential for other vitamins ans minerals e.g iron or calcium to work effectively, Enzymes are just as important.

In The Missing Ingredient, you'll discover how proteolytic enzymes DOUBLED the five-year survival rates for women with breast cancer. A man with kidney cancer was given 50 days to live -- but he was alive and well 15 years later thanks to enzymes. A woman with metastatic breast cancer - a 'death sentence' - was alive and well 16 years later.

Enzymes can help save you from heart and artery disease
