Food and cooking tips

Try Eating Raw Food : Your body needs time to adjust and clean itself. Start including more fresh fruit, green salad, and green juice in your meals. Cut back on meat, dairy products, and cooked starchy foods. Try eating all raw one day per week, then two days. Or eat only two cooked foods per meal, then only one. You'll feel the difference.

Buy Local Food : Begin by taking baby steps, such as committing to spend £10 pounds a week on locally grown foods.

Losing weight

The Zone Diet
The Zone diet is a weight loss regime initially advocated by Barry Sears in a series of books, publications and an associated website. The Zone diet isn’t exactly a weight loss diet, although some people believe that they manage to lose body weight by following it.
The science claimed for the Zone Diet is that if you limit the secretion of two important hormones, (insulin and glucogen), then your body releases eicosanoids which puts your body in a state of equilibrium that is much more healthy than usual, known as the 'zone'.
Sears states that if you get into this 'zone', your body is much more efficient and, because of this, does not build up layers of fat.
The main procedure of the zone diet is to monitor and control the exact ratio of carbohydrates to proteins, and to dose yourself with increased levels of Omega 3 and omega 6.

Ingredients And Procedures

1/2 c Brown sugar

1/2 c White sugar

1/2 c Unsalted butter

1 Egg

1/2 ts Vanilla

1 1/2 c Oatmeal

3/4 c Flour

1/2 ts Baking soda

1/2 ts Salt

1/4 To 1/2 cup ground walnuts

Cream the sugars and the butter until the mixture is very smooth. Blend in the egg and the vanilla. Mix in the oatmeal. Sift together the flour, soda and salt. Blend that into the dough. It will be a very soft dough. Let it stand for a few minutes to firm up. Meanwhile, heat the oven to 350F. Drop the dough by rounded tablespoons onto a cookie sheet, leaving 2 inches between dough mounds. Sprinkle each with some ground nuts, pressing them into the dough and flattening the cookies at the same time. Bake for 10 minutes, until cookies are uniformly brown. Makes approximately 18 cookies, 4 1/2 inches in diameter. San Francisco Chronicle, 9/21/88. Posted by Stephen Ceideberg; November 4 1992.
