Monodiet for nursing moms?

[Guest guest]

Good morning Ayana (depending upon your time zone, of course ,

 

Short answer: yes. In fact, the human digestive system works best when

processing one food at a time, and our mechanism for experiencing and

noticing satiation (when we have eaten " enough " ) ONLY works properly when we

consume foods one at a time.

 

Throughout Nature, the animals generally eat one food at a time. Dietary

variety occurs over time, not in one meal. For example, a bear may enjoy

berries, honey, and salmon. But I have not heard of any bear who gathers

some berries, collects some honey, catches a fish, then makes a sandwich.

 

Also, we are very misled by all the conversation about a need for variety in

our diet. Other species thrive for eons on a fairly limited selection of

foods--many on only one food, in fact. We could all be totally healthy

eating bananas, a few other tropical fruits, and leaves all the days of our

lives.

 

Of greater concern nowadays is diminished soil quality. So if you wish to

focus upon variety, then eat the same food grown in different

soils/conditions. For example, find lettuce grown by different farmers in

different locations.

 

Make sense?

With all thiss talk about monodiets I'm curious if this is healthy for

nursing moms. What are some thoughts on this?
