Nutritarian Defined

"Simply put, a Nutritarian diet is a way of eating which bases food choices on maximizing the micronutrients per calorie. A Nutritarian diet is designed with food that has powerful disease-protecting and therapeutic effects and delivers a broad array of micronutrients via a wide spectrum of food choices. It is not sufficient to merely avoid fats, consume foods with a low glycemic index, lower the intake of animal products, or eat a diet of mostly raw foods. A truly healthful Nutritarian diet must be micronutrient rich and the micronutrient richness must be adjusted to meet individual needs. The foods with the highest micronutrient per calorie scores are green vegetables, colorful vegetables, and fresh fruits. For optimal health and to combat disease, it is necessary to consume enough of these foods that deliver the highest concentration of nutrients.

A Nutritarian diet is guided by nutritional quality."

 

 

This works out in practical way such as these:

 

1. "The salad is the  main dish" (Joel Fuhrman)

 

Plan your menu around whole, raw veggies, add in some beans for protein, add a cooked vegetable or squash, or some  whole grains, finish with a bit of fruit for dessert.

 

2. Understand the real food pyramid:

 

 

and change your lifestyle to eat this way. You will very quickly feel the difference

as your body detoxes and heals.

 

3. Do not consistently allow in foods that destroy health.

These include much of what is considered the

Standard American Diet...

highly processed and preserved foods

excessive amounts of meats and dairy

oil and other non-whole food fats

excessive use of sugar in its non-whole food forms

excessive amounts of salt

These 'foods' produce addiction and disease.
