We all want optimum health and a raw diet can deliver that I can assure you.Here are the reasons why.
When we cook food we are setting fire to it and sadly many of the nutrients will be destroyed.When we strain off the hot water from those boiled vegetables we are pouring all the goodness down the drain.
When you eat raw food your liver and kidneys are freed up to keep your body healthy instead of devoting all their time to getting rid of the toxins you put inside your body.
A proper raw diet eliminates constipation and the time it takes for waste to pass through the body is reduced to 24 hours or less.For people on a conventional diet it takes upwards of 72 hours or more.During this time the rotting food ferments and putrefies resulting in foul smelling gas and faeces
.The rotting proteins in the colon can result in colonic diseases such as colitis and cancer.
We experience weight loss better sleep and clearer skin.I can attest to the fact of weight loss as I lost 22 pounds over the course of 3 months when I switched to a raw food diet.As you eliminate all forms of salt and condiments you will lose any excess fat.
The red blood cells in our body our better able to transport oxygen to all the cells in our body which results in better mental clarity. Cold flues and general aches and pains disappear and one's overall quality of life improves.
As you begin to detox however you may experience discomfort as this process plays out.You could experience tiredness a runny nose and headaches.These are all signs that the body is making healthy adjustments.
You may experience gas problems after you have moved to a raw diet but this can be eliminated in time by using correct food combining.
Each of us will react in a different way.The duration and degree of the detox will vary.It can be slight or intense,last a few days or several months.Just let the liver and kidneys do their job. Eating must be a joy and if you cannot eat it in it's raw state that it should not be eaten.There has been no adaptions in the human physiology to allow for cooked food so this should give us a clue about what we should be eating.
We know that the water and sugars of fruit require almost no digestion only absorption giving the body a lot less work to do,which cannot be said for cooked food.It is so processed it is a wonder the body can extract anything out of it at all.
So in summary a diet rich in green leaves and a variety of fruits will give us all the nutrients we need and put the least amount of demand on our body that is possible.A raw food diet will bring you health and longevity.

Food Ideas For Better Health
Being a nurse is a very exciting career choice. Nurses save peoples’ lives and promote good health. What kind of advice would nurses give in relation to food consumption? It is assumed that professionals so closely tied to direct healthcare would be very knowledgeable in relation to day-to-day health.
The following article delivers tips relating to healthy eating.
Nutrient rich foods
There are over 40 different nutrients that contribute to a healthy diet. Nurses say daily food selections are to include whole-grain products, fruits, vegetables, dairy products, meat, poultry, fish, and other high-protein foods.
Whole Foods
Nurses still going to school know that it is hard to eat healthy while being a student, professional, or both. People should ingest 3 servings of foods such as bread, rice, cereal, and pasta per day. 2-4 servings of fruit and 3-5 servings of vegetables of are recommended.
Your weight
Excess body fat increases chances of high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other illnesses. Losing too much weight and being too thin is not a healthy way to live either. Nurses urge those who struggle with excess weight or experience shifts in weight to contact a dietician. Regular exercise is a vital part of living a healthy life.
Portions
Eating appropriately sized portions is important. Serving sizes are smaller than most might think. Nurses state that a recommended serving size of meat is 3 ounces (the size of a deck of cards). A mid-sized piece of fruit if considered one serving and a cup of pasta is equal to 2 servings.
Eat regularly
Not eating regularly leads to over and under-eating. Nurses say that consuming four moderately sized portions of food per day is healthy. It is difficult balancing work, school, and life; but it is a necessity. Don’t skip meals, but don’t eat in between meals to the point where it becomes a meal in itself.
Be fair to yourself
People eat for pleasure as well as for sustenance. You don’t need to completely starve yourself of fatty foods that you enjoy, but be conservative with the amounts consumed. Don’t entirely eliminate them from your diet, just be selective of how many times and how much you indulge.
It is not easy to be perfect
Nurses are not perfect all the time either. It is difficult to eat the perfect meal every time you sit down to dine. Forget about being impeccable. Think about eating a balanced diet. If you eat a meal high in fat for lunch, counter it with a dinner that is low in fat. If you skimp on your fruits and veggies one day, make up for it the next day.
Think about it
Take a week and write down all of the things you eat and the times you eat them. Analyze what you are eating and look for areas that may be unhealthy. Concentrate on replicating those times in the week when you are eating healthy and modify the points in the week when you are eating unhealthy.
Baby bites
Changing habits is not easy. Start to gradually address your diet concerns. Going too quickly does not come with success.
Seek balance
Don’t buy into words such as “good” and “bad.” It is a fact that some foods are more healthy than others, but people need food. If you eat foods that are not as healthy for you, then make sure you balance your diet by eating foods that are overwhelmingly healthy for you and eat more of them.

Health Food
Does your kid often eat junk food? Chances are, the answer to that one is a resounding yes because, as all parents know, children everywhere in the world absolutely love junk food such as hamburgers, pizza, candy, soda and salty foods like potato chips and french fries. Like most parents, you probably want to wean your child away from junk food (or at least lessen his intake of it) and reinforce his diet with healthy food such as grains, vegetables, fruits and nutrient-rich foods such as meat, beans, fish and nuts.
Here are some tips to help you achieve just that. The basic strategy is to make eating healthy food fun for the kids. You probably can even think of more ways to use this strategy when feeding your child.
(1) The Sneak Attack.
Sneak in those fruits and vegetables with a type of food that your child really enjoys. One example would be making muffins out of bananas or apples. If your kids like pizza, you can sneak in a wide variety of vegetables in there that your youngsters probably won’t even notice. Another tack is to arrange the food in creative ways that will appear funny and play-like to your childe. For instance, you can arrange the food creatively on a plate or make food stand at attention like people.
(2) Funny Name Game.
Kids below the age of four always fall for this one. It’s called the funny name game and involves giving healthy foods like fruits and vegetables funny names and conjuring up interesting stories involving the food. Obviously, many of these stories will conclude with the food being gobbled up by the giant child or having the food run for cover to avoid an alien attack by ducking into a big cave that also happens to be your kid’s mouth.
(3) The Taste Test.
The main reason kids don’t like vegetables is that they can’t stand the taste. Hence, if you can add things kids love like peanut butter to celery or some ranch dressing to broccoli, your kids may go for those veggies.
The main thing is to be creative about feeding your food. I’m sure you can look into your kitchen and discover your own way to make eating healthy food a fun experience.

Chocolate-- The Newest Health Food?
You may have already heard that chocolate contains beneficial flavonoids and antioxidents. Flavonoids are naturally-occurring compounds found in plant foods that are full of recognized health benefits. There are more than 4,000 flavonoid compounds, which are a subgroup of a large class called polyphenols. Phenols are believed to help reduce the risk of heart disease by helping prevent atherosclerosis. The flavanols in chocolate appear to help the body use nitric oxide, which is crucial for healthy blood flow and blood pressure, which means that chocolate might help reduce hypertension as well.
Red wine is know for its high phenol content, but an average bar of dark chocolate contains more phenols than 8 ounces of red wine. Scientists at Cornell University and Seoul National University examined the cancer-fighting antioxidant content of hot cocoa, red wine, and tea, and found that cocoa had nearly double the antioxidants of red wine and four to five times more than tea.
Holland's National Institute of Public Health and Environment found that dark chocolate contains 53.5 mg of catechins per 100 grams. (Catechins are the powerful antioxidants that fight against cancer and help prevent heart disease). By contrast, a cup of black tea contains only about 14 mg of catechins and green tea has about 30 mg of catechins.
A study at University of California Davis found that participants who ate chocolate showed a reduction in platelet activity. This means that chocolate has an anti-clotting, blood-thinning effect that can be compared to aspirin.
A Harvard University study of 8,000, with an average age of 65, revealed that those who consumed chocolate lived almost a year longer than those who did not. Those who ate one to three candy bars per month had a 36 percent lower risk of death (compared to the people who ate no candy), while those who ate three or more candy bars per week had a 16 percent lower risk.
A study of older men in The Netherlands, known for its chocolate, showed that those who ate the most chocolate, an equivalent of one-third of a chocolate bar every day, had lower blood pressure and a 50 percent lower risk of death. The researchers also noted the men eating the most cocoa products were not heavier or bigger eaters than the men who ate less cocoa.
And it's not just dark chocolate that is the only healthy type of chocolate. Most studies talk about the benefits of dark chocolate, but some of the most recent news about chocolate includes good news for milk chocolate lovers, who have been left out in the past.
The Wheeling Jesuit University in West Virginia did a study that shows that milk chocolate seems to boost brainpower. The groups in the test consumed, on different occasions, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, carob and nothing. Then they were tested for cognitive performance including memory, attention span, reaction time, and problem solving.
According to Dr. Bryan Raudenbush, "Composite scores for verbal and visual memory were significantly higher for milk chocolate than the other conditions." The study also found that consumption of milk and dark chocolate was associated with improved impulse control and reaction time. It seems that by consuming chocolate you get stimulating effects from substances found in chocolate, such as theobromine and phenylethylamine, which then lead to increased mental performance.
Chocolate really does make you feel good, too. It is known to stimulate the secretion of endorphins, producing a pleasurable sensation similar to the "runner's high" a jogger feels after running several miles. Chocolate also contains a neurotransmitter, serotonin that acts as an anti-depressant. Studies in England show that even the aroma of chocolate gives a bout of euphoria and will help lift the spirits.
And now people are looking at chocolate for skin care. According to Marlies Spinale, director of Tru Spa, "Like many other antioxidants, cocoa polyphenols are thought to offer the skin protection from free-radical damage caused by sun, pollution, stress, alcohol consumption and other factors. I believe that we will hear more about the benefits of chocolate in skin care."
Some people have been avoiding chocolate because one of the main ingredients of chocolate is cocoa butter. It was thought that it was an unhealthy fat, but actually cocoa butter is not unhealthy. It is made up of the beneficial fatty acids-- oleic acid (a heart-healthy monounsaturated fat also found in olive oil), stearic and palmitic acids. Stearic and palmitic acids are healthy forms of saturated fat. Plus chocolate contains vitamins A, B1, C, D, and E, as well as potassium, sodium, and iron.
So go ahead and indulge in a little chocolate, in moderation of course. I would recommend that you try to find organic chocolate, and stick with darker chocolate because it has more chocolate flavonoids and less sugar. (Sugar weakens the immune system; so don't consume sugar if you are ill.) And a little bit of milk chocolate is alright when you need an occasional milk chocolate brainpower boost, such as before a test. All you students take note!

Different colours food to your health
TCM will be grouped into five categories of all the colors: green, red, yellow, white, black. Showing the five different color of food, and there are different internal organs pass into the relationship that in accordance with the "Yellow Emperor" of the records, are: Oriental blue, into the pass in the liver; southern red, into the pass in the heart; Central yellow, into the pass in the spleen; Western white, into the pass in the lung; northern black, into the pass in the kidney.
Into the colored organ is different, so there are different after ingestion of the role of the human body. Blue is the portal triad, and are mostly green vegetables, eat a can clear anger, Liver Qi, those with high blood pressure, temper large, frequently red anger on the people who can eat more green vegetables, such as green Piluo Bo, celery , lettuce, rape, etc.; red is into the heart, red, warm foods such as chili, lamb, lychees, cherries, etc., there Warming Firelight, the role of heart-yang, and red, cold food, there are pure heart and heat, the role of Firelight, such as red radish, tomato, etc.; yellow is the color of the spleen, yellow, food and more helpful as the spleen and stomach functions, such as wheat, millet, corn, chestnut, banana, longan, etc., there are benefits Spleen stomach, and nurture the function of blood; white into the lungs, so lily, white fungus, lotus root, ginkgo, duck, etc., may nourish Yin; black into the kidney, where the black foods, such as fungus, mushrooms, purple, mulberry, seaweed, kelp, sea cucumber, black-bone chicken and so on can kidney. Therefore, the table of food is often higher quality full-color, and color all means Wei Chuan, nutritional balance, the human body after ingestion of dirty air does not appear Piansheng partial failure, disease does not easily occur. In the normal diet, we can according to their physical situation, choose different colors of food: spleen, the more the election yellow food; kidney, the more the black food selection.
Life, friends often ask questions such as: "the same type of crops or vegetables, there are different colors, such as sub-radish radish, white radish, carrot, carrots, do not know the color difference will result in their role different? "
Let me give you a concrete example: radish color blue portal triad, so the clear anger best; white radish color white into the lungs, so pass lung, Lee stool stronger, because the lung and Large Intestine; the color red carrot on into the heart, so it can fire a pure heart, mouth sores effects of human consumption to be better; carrot is yellow on the side Rupi, so replenishing spleen of the most powerful, among the most nutritious in the radish. Similarly, such as rice, we often eat a millet, rice, purple rice, etc., partial human lung large beige white, purple beige black bias into the kidney, small cream-colored yellow on the side into the stomach. Rice millet turned around the highest nutritional value, so the women after childbirth, the general habit of rice with a little brown sugar make up the body. Another example are the fungus, white fungus is a fungus that can lungs, Tremella lotus soup is rich common beverages in ancient China; black fungus to indulge Yang Shen. There are beans, there are mung beans, soybeans, black beans, red beans, mung beans partial Liver, kidney beans, soybeans make up the spleen and stomach, red beans make efforts.Distinctive "yellow"
Yellow food nutritional value of food is the highest, yellow is expensive, we can eat. This, with our traditional culture is the same. You find it? Different colors in the eyes of our Chinese people have a different status.
Here, we have to the five elements and colors from the start with the relationship. The five elements is wood, fire, earth, metal, water, these five substances, these five substances in ancient China was gradually abstract concepts of philosophy, the ancients all the things that the world can the five elements were used to classify and awareness. Color, too, the first color is divided into five basic categories. Five categories were standardized and then colored, the color is blue and the trees close, so is wood; red is the color of fire, so is a fire; yellow color close to the land, so the territory; white color for some metals, so are gold ; Finally, corresponding to the black water, so is water. Five elements rely on groups with students and of the relationships, between a close contact, such as phase-student relationship is a wood fire, fire, adobe, native gold, gold water, and water timber; and mutual restraint between the wood overcomes earth, earth water, water, fire, fire grams of gold, wood.
In this connection, the students appear to have their own element of things, also have their own things grams, if five persons are completely equal, but in fact, the five elements in Chinese society is the unequal status of .
China is a farming country, the land is what sustains survival of the capital, and the "soil" of higher status than the other four lines, occupying the leading of the place. Many important theories in ancient China reflect this idea in both. So, after the five elements regulate the natural world, whenever and soil combination, or things belonging to earth, than other things, and to dominate. In this way, colored in yellow for your Take, Take 5 numbers is expensive, organs in respect of the stomach is expensive. So politicians Jia Yi Han Han Emperor in the memorial to the proposed reform program, "color is still yellow, with five numbers." The traditional Chinese medicine theory, the spleen and stomach as acquired the book, the source of qi and blood chemical and biological weapons is an extension of this philosophy.
Into the colored organ is different, so there are different after ingestion of the role of the human body. Blue is the portal triad, and are mostly green vegetables, eat a can clear anger, Liver Qi, those with high blood pressure, temper large, frequently red anger on the people who can eat more green vegetables, such as green Piluo Bo, celery , lettuce, rape, etc.; red is into the heart, red, warm foods such as chili, lamb, lychees, cherries, etc., there Warming Firelight, the role of heart-yang, and red, cold food, there are pure heart and heat, the role of Firelight, such as red radish, tomato, etc.; yellow is the color of the spleen, yellow, food and more helpful as the spleen and stomach functions, such as wheat, millet, corn, chestnut, banana, longan, etc., there are benefits Spleen stomach, and nurture the function of blood; white into the lungs, so lily, white fungus, lotus root, ginkgo, duck, etc., may nourish Yin; black into the kidney, where the black foods, such as fungus, mushrooms, purple, mulberry, seaweed, kelp, sea cucumber, black-bone chicken and so on can kidney. Therefore, the table of food is often higher quality full-color, and color all means Wei Chuan, nutritional balance, the human body after ingestion of dirty air does not appear Piansheng partial failure, disease does not easily occur. In the normal diet, we can according to their physical situation, choose different colors of food: spleen, the more the election yellow food; kidney, the more the black food selection.
Life, friends often ask questions such as: "the same type of crops or vegetables, there are different colors, such as sub-radish radish, white radish, carrot, carrots, do not know the color difference will result in their role different? "
Let me give you a concrete example: radish color blue portal triad, so the clear anger best; white radish color white into the lungs, so pass lung, Lee stool stronger, because the lung and Large Intestine; the color red carrot on into the heart, so it can fire a pure heart, mouth sores effects of human consumption to be better; carrot is yellow on the side Rupi, so replenishing spleen of the most powerful, among the most nutritious in the radish. Similarly, such as rice, we often eat a millet, rice, purple rice, etc., partial human lung large beige white, purple beige black bias into the kidney, small cream-colored yellow on the side into the stomach. Rice millet turned around the highest nutritional value, so the women after childbirth, the general habit of rice with a little brown sugar make up the body. Another example are the fungus, white fungus is a fungus that can lungs, Tremella lotus soup is rich common beverages in ancient China; black fungus to indulge Yang Shen. There are beans, there are mung beans, soybeans, black beans, red beans, mung beans partial Liver, kidney beans, soybeans make up the spleen and stomach, red beans make efforts.Distinctive "yellow"
Yellow food nutritional value of food is the highest, yellow is expensive, we can eat. This, with our traditional culture is the same. You find it? Different colors in the eyes of our Chinese people have a different status.
Here, we have to the five elements and colors from the start with the relationship. The five elements is wood, fire, earth, metal, water, these five substances, these five substances in ancient China was gradually abstract concepts of philosophy, the ancients all the things that the world can the five elements were used to classify and awareness. Color, too, the first color is divided into five basic categories. Five categories were standardized and then colored, the color is blue and the trees close, so is wood; red is the color of fire, so is a fire; yellow color close to the land, so the territory; white color for some metals, so are gold ; Finally, corresponding to the black water, so is water. Five elements rely on groups with students and of the relationships, between a close contact, such as phase-student relationship is a wood fire, fire, adobe, native gold, gold water, and water timber; and mutual restraint between the wood overcomes earth, earth water, water, fire, fire grams of gold, wood.
In this connection, the students appear to have their own element of things, also have their own things grams, if five persons are completely equal, but in fact, the five elements in Chinese society is the unequal status of .
