Clink on Underlined Words for Link
Thank you for helping Debi heal with all the food power she needs for healing, energy, strength and over all health. I have created this to help with understanding "clean eating."
If any recipe calls for sugar, gluten, artificial foods, ingredients or premade seasonings, additives, high glycemic index foods, please eliminate or substitute for a cleaner replacement and, for now, please avoid grains. Please read labels, as items you think do not have gluten or sugar, may have it, i.e. soy sauce, ketchup, seasonings that are premade, etc.
Please follow these guidelines (Mayo Clinic):
Key Food Groups for Clean Eating:
- Fruits: A wide variety of fresh fruits are excellent for clean eating, including berries, apples, bananas, and citrus fruits.
- Vegetables: Leafy greens, colorful non-starchy vegetables (like broccoli and cauliflower), and root vegetables (like sweet potatoes) are all great choices.
- Lean Proteins: Choose lean cuts of meat, poultry, fish, beans, lentils, and eggs.
- For Now, Please Avoid this Group for Debi - Whole Grains: Opt for whole-wheat bread, brown rice, quinoa, oats, and other whole grains.
- Healthy Fats: Include sources like avocados, nuts, seeds, and olive oil in your diet.
Foods to Limit or Avoid:
- Processed foods: These often contain unhealthy fats, excessive sugar, and artificial ingredients.
- Added sugars: Limit sugary drinks, desserts, and processed snacks.
- Unhealthy fats: Avoid fried foods, processed baked goods, and trans fats.
- Excessive sodium: Be mindful of salt intake, especially in processed foods.
