How To Maintain A Healthy High Carbohydrate, Low Fat Raw  Vegan Lifestyle.




(The views expressed here are based solely on personal experience and research, and should not be taken as medical advice.)

What is the High Carbohydrate, Low Fat Raw Vegan Diet? Firstly, it is the most healing way to eat and thrive. Studies have shown that a high carbohydrate ( fresh fruits and vegetables with low fat protein and fat per centage intake), is the most healing for Diabetes, Heart Disease, Most Cancers and Autoimmune Disorders.  A high carbohydrate( approximatelyb80% or 90% of daily intake), Low Fat diet consists predominantly of fruits, the most optimal will consist of the hydrating fruits in higher per centage than others, the fat intake is quite often kept to a  10% maximum of ones daily consumption. The 10% is also held as the maximum, depending on the carbohydrate proportion.  The premise on which a high carbohydrate, low fat lifestyle is built is one whereby it is recognized that each cell in the body is fueled and nourished by glucose or glycogen,  both of which are derived directly from fresh fruits high in absorbable carbohydrates. When these fruits are live, in season and ripe, the conversion is one of the easiest possible to achieve. Fats on the other hand require more energy per gram to be converted to usable energy by the body and thus not recommended to be taken in high per centages.  Assuredly, healthy fats must be part of a healthy lifestyle, most optimal when taken in at 10% of one’s daily intake in terms of number of calories. In time, each person will ascertain if this per centage should be higher or lower than this amount. If one pays attention to these per centages along with the listed preferred foods, then it is felt that a healthy healing balance may be achieved. 

This way of eating excludes all animal flesh(meat) and secretions( milk, eggs etc.) and consists of plant foods in their original state.

The foods which make up the respective categories are as follows:

Carbohydrates:

Sweet Fruits: Bananas, mangoes, sapodillas melons, jackfruit, dragon fruit, plantains.

Sub Acid Fruits: Papayas, pomegranates, star fruits.

Non Sweet Fruits: Tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini.

Fats:

Fatty Fruits: Avocado, durian.

Other Sources of Live Plant Fats:

Nuts, seeds, legumes, sprouted beans, peas.

Protein:

Quinoa, oat groats, lentils, mung beans, sunflower seeds, hemp seeds, mushrooms,

Acid Fruits: Citrus Family ~ Grapefruit, orange, ortanique, tangerine, lemons, pineapples, limes, strawberries


Incorporate the recommended foods in their respective per centages, gauge how you feel, adapt healthy lifestyle practices and enjoy!

Live Well on a Budget!

Hi All, Happy Monday! The topic of my discussion today focuses around words. What I mean by that is, depending on the words you use to describe something, someone will automatically get the impression whether it is good, bad, cheap, expensive, old or new just to name a few things. First let's talk about food. Meal kits, meal starters, one skillet meals have a nice ring to them but when you look up the word leftovers there is nothing appealing about. If you look up synonyms for the word leftovers you can find words like scraps, remnants and crumbs so who would want to eat that? Maybe we need to change the way we think of leftovers. Personally I love it when I have food leftover because that automatically becomes my "meal kit" that I can use as the basis for a new dish. Yes. you can just reheat your original meal but that can be boring. However if you add some ingredients and change the flavor profile by adding some spices, you have not only saved money but c...

A lot of people think that you have to cut out tasty foods when you go vegan, but good news, it is FAR from the truth! There are many different ice creams out there and cheesecakes that I have tried that I have really enjoyed. One of the first brands I have tried was Haagen Dazs and I have tried three of their non-dairy flavors including chocolate salted fudge truffle, peanut butter chocolate fudge, and mocha chocolate cookie. Also, Breyers has an Oreo flavor that is also wonderful. They also have a peanut butter flavor that I would like to try as well. I had the oreo flavor with some fruit and the original flavor of the Daiya Cheesecake. They also have other flavors of the cheesecake including key lime, strawberry, pumpkin, and chocolate. I also love having some sparkling water, juice, or some kombucha if I am feeling like I want something other than water. This can be a better alternative to sodas if you want something with some fla...
