That's where I'm at. Milk for me is only an ingredient in recipies these days. But I do still eat cheese. And I aint giving up sour cream, either! Nowadays corn tortillas are my main source of calcium.
I have really cut back on the fast food latley and have lost almost 40 lbs the past few months. Feel a whole lot better and have more energy it seems. Been eating better and staying active as much as possible. Its really amazing how much better your quality of life can be just by changing what you eat.
Please share what you learn. I'm a real creature of habit here...breakfast around 7 am, lunch around noon, snack around 3 pm, and dinner around 5 pm. I'm losing weight and feeling good, so it would take some effort and convincing to move out of this routine. One thing about eating an early dinner with reasonable portions...I no longer wake up in the middle of the night with acid reflux...it's 100% gone. That allows me to get much better rest.
That's my point. Milk is a super food for growing infants. There's no actual need for adults to consume it.
Yep, I have four kids, all but one now adults, and they were breast fed. I don't criticize anyone's choice, but it kept my kids healthy and they grew like weeds. Sent from my DROID Turbo using Tapatalk
Cutting out wheat or adding it? I find a lot of conflicting information, although most agree that it is best if it is not heavily processed. Sent from my DROID Turbo using Tapatalk
It probably made more sense back before there was such a thing as a desk job. And before we had grocery stores. When we provided for ourselves it would have been much easier to sustain than meat.
I believe that's why we see things like cheese and yogurt in some of the oldest food cultures, like India and the Middle East. Milk consumption itself, however, is not as common in those cultures as in my USA. Milk spoils, but can be preserved as a sustained protein source, as you note. It is why the tradition of "slaying the fatted calf" was saved for very special occasions and times. To kill an animal also killed a multi-year at protein source or possible premium future breeding stock.
i am basically eating breakfast at 7 am,,a main meal at lunch,and a small snack before 7 pm.like i did when i lived in england as a child. nothing after 7 pm.clearing up lots of issues.better sleep as a result as well. only eating when i am active,green tea after 7pm also..some would call this a twelve hour fast...
All wheat (on big farms) in the USA is sprayed with glyphosate before harvest. How do I know? I'm in CO. I've asked a few. The system is now the real issue. If you eat wheat in America, you're very likely eating Roundup. This practice of using glyphosate on commercial wheat correlates neatly with the unprecedented rise in "gluten issues", IBS, and autism of the past three decades. Wheat is common in our diets because it's highly profitable, not because it's the best starch or grain. It's not necessary for health, however, in non celiac people, clean wheat would in theory be OK.
In one hour I will begin to drink my Gavilyte-c for my colonoscopy tomorrow, I've been on clear liquids since yesterday and feel pretty darn good.
