What I’m eating and not eating much of these days…

The Green List… Eat more:

• Omega 3’s! Good fats found in Salmon, Tuna, hemp seeds, flaxseed and more!!
• Olive oil, flaxseed oil
• Kale, spinach, avocado
• Fruits high in antioxidants
• As many Raw Foods as possible!
• Healthy herbs and spices.
• Take your supplements!

The Black List:

• Limit Red Meat. Basically, I’m mostly eating lean, organic turkey or chicken, fish and shellfish. But I do occasionally enjoy a good steak!
• Dairy Products. This is a tough one, but it’s so worth it in the end!
• Gluten. I have gone back and forth with eliminating gluten from my diet. And I’ve found that a life without gluten generally means more energy!
• Saturated Fats… as little as possible, which is much easier without the dairy and red meat.
• High Fructose Corn syrup! Gross!
• Trans Fats, also know as Hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils found in many processed foods! Please do your homework on these.
