Diet One-quarter of what you eat keeps you alive. On this page, you will find info about food tolerance, and about healthy diet, including, but not limiting to: Elimination - rotation diet, Blood Type diet, Muscle response testing diet , diet and climate, ... I suppose you already know everything about Toxins and about Foods that Kill. An important part of your diet should be Water Cure, Foods That Heal, Vegetable juices, Fats that Heal, Unrefined Sea Salt. Now, we can go further. What's really a "Healthy Diet" ? It is time to admit that
almost all diets explained in hundreds of diet books could actually be dangerous
for your health. What is Food Intolerance? What About Science You must have read dozens of studies entitled like: "This food prevents cancer", or "this food prevents cardiovascular diseases", or "Eat this food, it has a lot of this-or-that nutrient, and that nutrient prevents Alzheimer or Parkinson's or diabetes" ... The problem with all those studies is that all studies are based on statistics, averaging from a large group of people. Most medical and nutritional science is based on statistics. BUT, You are not some virtual statistical human! You are one and only, unique, unrepeatable, and you may have nothing in common with people from who statistics are derived! If something is good for majority of people (90%) as suggested by some famous research, there is still the possibility that that particular food is NOT good for you! Bare that in your mind! What if you are not like majority, like 90% of people? What if you are one if those 10%? Especially be suspicious on studies done on people of other race, or other geographical region, or other age group, or other gender! There is a high chance that food tolerance of that group of people is different then your own! It may happened you tolerate this food. It may happened you don't. If you tolerate it, it is good for you, if you don't tolerate it, it is not good for you! That is the point! That is the wisdom! The bottom point is: forget everything you read and start from ZERO. Can I Improve my Tolerance to Foods? Yes, You can improve your food tolerance! To improve your tolerance, cleanse your gut and cleanse your liver! What is the perfect diet for me considering my health condition? This question can be shared in four different questions:
One of the most important
question, and most complicated to answer is the first question. You may have already been suggested any of those "specific" or "restrictive" diets:
If someone, without knowing much about you, tells you: "This is a good diet for you", or "Good diet for you is to eat "this and that" and avoid "this and that", it is most likely that this advice is NOT complete !!! Why ?
Because all people are not identical. So, how to know what to eat ? How to know what is a healthy diet ?
Healthy diet is diet that excludes foods that you don't tolerate and that
includes foods that you tolerate and that are beneficial for you, while in the same time
you are eating large variety of food items, that will provide body with all the essential
nutrients and all the accessory nutrients... What is an Allergic Reaction to food? Allergic reaction occurs in blood and in different organs, and is the worst and last stadium of food intolerance. You don't have to be allergic to any particular food item, but you still may be intolerant of long list of food items. How can I find out what foods I am able to tolerate? There are several different ways:
1. Elimination - rotation dietThe elimination/rotation diet starts out with
one or two foods being allowed at any particular meal. For the first week, wheat and milk
are avoided because many people does not tolerate those foods. The easiest is to start
with foods that are listed to be beneficial for someone's blood type Any of your
favorite, commonly eaten foods are also avoided. If any food triggers a reaction, it
is replaced with another, until no symptoms are experienced. When all symptoms have
cleared, favorite foods are returned to the diet one-at-a-time. Foods that produce
symptoms twice are withdrawn for three months. If you are already receiving
cortisone therapy when they come for treatment, it is discontinued as soon as possible,
because the drug hides symptoms and makes it more difficult to pinpoint offending foods. About Elimination - rotation diet by ROBERT MCFERRAN THE ELIMINATION DIET from: ELIMINATION DIET THE ELIMINATION DIET I’ve often talked with folks that were confident that foods didn’t have any impact on their symptoms. I ask if they’ve ever run a good ‘elimination’ diet and a surprising number assure me that they have. Upon further questioning I always find that they have only eliminated a couple of foods, say milk or wheat or nightshade vegetables (tomatoes, eggplant, peppers, etc.). Even though milk and wheat are common food allergens and nightshade vegetables create problems for those possessing one specific metabolism, this should not be considered a true elimination diet. Over 85% of people with chronic disease have food allergies. Most will find not one, but a handful of foods acting as the major culprits. This is the reason why eliminating just one or two random foods is all but useless. If you were allergic to a large number of tree pollens, springtime grasses and weeds, the removal of only one of these airborne allergens would usually have little impact on your total allergy symptoms. If the allergen was added back into the mix you probably wouldn’t notice. The effect from this one allergen would be hidden or ‘masked’ by your already prominent symptoms to the other allergens. The same phenomenon occurs with foods. How could we find whether the airborne allergen in the above example was a significant factor in triggering our allergic symptoms? The best way would be to place ourselves in a room with perfectly filtered air (in essence eliminating all airborne allergens) until our allergy symptoms abated. The specific allergen would then be re-introduced and any allergic reaction noted. In this way the impact of a single, specific allergen can be isolated and tested. What was previously thought to be a rather insignificant allergen would often deliver a surprisingly strong allergic response. We can do the same thing with foods. Historically ‘spring water fasts’ have been employed. Patients would drink only spring water for the initial 4-5 days. This type of ‘fast’ would obviously eliminate all food allergens from the diet. It was maintained for 4-5 days to also allow physical elimination of all foods eaten prior to the start of the ‘fast’ from the digestive tract. Spring water fasts have one major problem. A significant percentage of individuals cannot tolerate them and should not try them. Their metabolic demands make any kind of extended water fast dangerous. Fortunately years of previous testing has provided a list of ‘safe’ foods that can be temporarily substituted for your usual diet. These foods are not completely hypo-allergenic but they do have a low allergenic potential. In other words they are rarely found to induce a reaction. The foods include cod, trout, mackerel, pears, parsnips, turnips, rutabaga, sweet potatoes, yams, celery, zucchini, carrots and peaches. Any foods routinely eaten more than twice a week should be removed from the list. All the foods must be fresh and in their ‘whole’ or natural form. No cans or other packaging allowed. Spring water or sparkling water are the only acceptable liquids. The only allowed condiment is sea or mineral salt. Steaming is an excellent method of preparing foods during your elimination diet. Prior to starting the diet you’ll need to purchase a bottle of magnesium citrate (found in the laxative section) and alka-seltzer ‘gold’ (it’s found only in the gold colored box). All drugs should be continued. Smoking should be ceased when initiating the diet. You will not be able to eat at restaurants during the diet. If you work, Thursday evening will be the best time to begin. Wait two hours after dinner and pour one-half of the contents of the bottle of magnesium citrate into a tall glass. Add an equal amount of water and some ice and drink slowly. Repeat the same procedure with the remainder of the magnesium citrate just prior to retiring. Friday morning’s breakfast and all subsequent meals for the next six days should consist exclusively of the ‘safe’ foods (cod, trout, mackerel, pears, parsnips, turnips, rutabaga, sweet potatoes, yams, celery, zucchini, carrots and peaches). You may eat them in any combination and in any amount as often as you want throughout the first six days. Take note of what you are eating and how often you are eating it. You won’t be able to remember so keep a diary. You will need that information later. By Friday evening (day 1) you should start feeling your first ‘withdrawal’ symptoms. You won’t be getting the temporary lift provided by your allergenic food(s). Withdrawal symptoms can take many forms. The most obvious is an increase in joint swelling and pain. Headache, muscle aches, fatigue and other flu-like symptoms are very common. Strong hunger pangs and cravings are usually present. It’s not unusual to still feel hungry shortly after a meal. Withdrawal symptoms will worsen on Saturday and Sunday (days 2 and 3). The intensity of these symptoms should not be underestimated. In fact many will feel completely crippled during these days. Withdrawal symptoms can be somewhat ameliorated by taking one tablet of alka-seltzer (in the gold box) in a large glass of water. This can be repeated every 4 hours if needed. You should try to drink plenty of water. It will help speed elimination and the ‘clearing’ of symptoms. By Monday (day 4) some will feel significantly better as their withdrawal symptoms begin to clear. This ‘clearing’ will continue on Tuesday and Wednesday (days 5 and 6). While younger people tend to clear their symptoms earlier, 85% of all arthritics will clear a large part of their arthritis symptoms by day 6. After clearing most report that they feel better than they have in years. Now that symptoms have cleared new foods can be introduced, one by one, to the base diet of ‘safe’ foods that you’ve been eating the past 6 days. Up to 3 foods can be tested each day if there is no reaction. NB : If fresh/frozen mackerel not available, can substitute cod, or other white fish even. People who are pretty sure they are H-G can add in lamb. 2. Blood Typing - Blood Type diet - Eat Right 4 Your Blood TypeIf you want quickly to get close to good diet, then blood type diet might be the first thing that you should try. By following this diet you can get very close to the list of food items that you may tolerate.
Blood Type diet is based on the fact that people with same
blood type (O, A, B, AB ) and same race (Asian, Caucasian, African, Native
American, Australian) are very similar in the way how they tolerate different foods. To learn more about Blood Type Diet, please visit Blood Type Diet Forums: 3. Food Tolerance/Intolerance Testing - Muscle Response TestingMuscle response testing is one
relatively reliable
way to determine what every individual person may or may not tolerate any particular
moment.
It is also called applied kinesiology, and most often tested muscles are muscles of the
arms. You can be tested for different medications, different foods, tooth fillings, clothes, compatibility with certain house, compatibility with certain room, compatibility with certain bed, and just about anything else. You can't test yourself. Testing must be done by an experienced practitioner of muscle response testing + one person who will be a helper. If person's muscle is weak when a sample of a food item or medication is hold on the stomach, that means that person does not tolerate that particular food or medication that moment. If you repeat testing for many different foods many times, you can get very reliable lists of foods that you tolerate. For this test to be reliable ... you must be tested by someone else, and for the best results ... there should be 2 persons performing testing, person A and B. Person B is choosing foods, and writing down what is your reaction on the food. Second person, person A is doing muscle testing with samples of food. All samples must be equal by size and weight. The best is to have all samples inside identical glass jars. Jars with samples must be hidden inside a cotton bag, and person A who is doing muscle response testing, as well as you who is being tested, should not know what particular food you are tested for. The only person with that knowledge is person B, the person who is preparing bags and jars ... When A determines to what degree you are able to tolerate (or not tolerate) the tested sample, A reports results to B, and B writes it down. There could be 3 different results: Beneficial (+), Neutral (+-), Avoid (-) If the sample is extremely
beneficial for you, B writes down (+) In the end, B is holding a list of all foods, and beside each food item that you have been tested for, there is a sign explaining what is your relationship with that food. Once test is finished, you are allowed to see the list. If this kind of testing is repeated several times, in the end you will have a reliable list of foods that you can tolerate or that you should avoid. If you are sick, you should emphasize on eating only "beneficial" foods, with some amount of "neutral" foods occasionally. If you are healthy, you can eat both "beneficial" and "neutral" foods, and occasionally you may taste some of the "avoids". If you want to get sick, you eat only "Avoids" food. Beware that our tolerance to foods changes with time ... and it is smart to repeat testing at least once a year. Climate, Seasons and Food ChoicesIf you can, you should always choose food grown in the same climatic region and mainly food that has been traditionally available during the present season. Next best choice is food grown in the neighbor climatic region, or food grown during the previous season. Climate consideration and season considerations are especially important when we are talking about fruits, nuts and vegetable. You don't have to consider climate and season when it comes to fish, sea food, eggs, meat, milk products, spices, oils ... Some fruits and nuts are naturally available during cold winter. There is nothing wrong in consuming it, even if you would consider it "autumn food". FAQ - Climate and Foods
Why are climate and season so important?Climate is an essential aspect to understanding the world around us. It is the long term summation of weather patterns for a region. It affects the region physically (i.e. vegetation and soil patterns) and culturally (i.e. agriculture and population). Can you think of a few things in your own life that are affected by climate? Try the inverse: can you think of anything in your life that is completely unaffected by climate? Climate and seasons are the most important physical components of our world that shape human lifestyles, behaviors, wealth and health. Different climate classifications are primarily based upon (1) the seasonal variations in temperature, and (2) the annual rainfall amount and seasonality--that is, what time of the year the rain comes. Temperature is determined by the length of time the sun's most intense rays are focused on a area. Precipitation is the amount of rain and snow a region receives. The major factors which influence temperature and precipitation, and therefore shape climate, are (1) Latitude, (2) Air Masses & Ocean Currents, (3)Continentality , and (4) Topography.
3 Major Subdivisions of ClimateBased on latitudinal variation, there are 3 major subdivisions of climate; the tropics, mid latitudes and polar. Each has distinctive characteristics which make it unique. Vegetation, animal life and people all exist in each.
Another Important Climate Consideration
Not all foods are equal, when it comes to climate considerations.
Grains, seafood and animal products are more or less equal in all climatic regions (except polar region, where very few plants grow). For those foods, it is not very important to follow "climatic rules". Vegetable grown in the wormer climatic regions is far more sweet then vegetable grown in colder climatic regions. Vegetable tends to be more climatically distributed, and in case of vegetable you should follow climatic rules: choose vegetable grown in the same climate. Fruits, berries and nuts seems to be the most climatically distributed. Fruits, berries and nuts grown in tropical climate should not represent more then 3% of total food intake if you live in polar climate, and not more then 20% if you live in mid-latitudes (moderate climate).
