Eating better menu?

[Guest guest]

I agree with you, balance is key. There is no perfect super food that

will give your body everything it needs with out some sorta down fall, in a

perfect world maybe but as you can tell we are not living in the " perfect

world. " Besides theirs probably a reason that goitrogen is in some foods that

are body needs, we just have not found that reason, and if not I will trust my

body to eliminate it. And I am quite sure eating goitrogen is the lesser evil

compared to eating a McDonalds cheese burger!

 

As I said I am new to eating healthy and so on.. but I was wondering if

anyone could refer me to some sort of menu that I could look at and go to the

store and get those items. I definetly need to broaden my horizons. I just ate 1

pound of mixed vegetables but I feel as if I only teased my body. I am more

hungry now than before I ate. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Ed,

 

Firstly I think it's impossible to say any particular

food is innately " good " or " bad " . Every living

organism on Earth has a set of survival mechanisms in

place to ensure it's species will continue on. Some

foods have certain mechanisms in place that make some

of the side effects less appealing. Spinach, for

example, contains oxalic acid which in high quantities

isn't great for us. Cruciferous vegetables (i.e.

brocoli) contain goitrogen which are thought to

suppress thyroid function.

 

The point of my previous post was that balance is the

key. I think an all raw food diet has it's drawbacks

as does an all cooked diet. Similarly, I believe if

someone eats too much broccoli they may be slowing

their thyroid down a bit. Conversely, there are many

known benefits to broccoli and avoiding it is missing

out on those benefits.

 

Everything in moderation.

There's lots of people getting sick on a " balanced diet " of cooked and

processed foods which isn't deficient in any single nutrient, but has low levels

of them all :o/ The key is to get both a balance AND abundance of nutrition

I think the fruit and greens at your grocer isn't exactly high nutrition either.

You know the really big producers pick it before it's even ripe, spray with

waxes and dyes to keep it fresh looking longer and ship it thousands of miles.

What you pick yourself when it's perfectly ripe and goes straight into your

kitchen is high nutrition! ) Here's a place sells a wide variety of fruit
