Dietary Theories

January 10, 2006 by Thomas Affatato

 

Dietary Theories

The year 2005 for me was a truly inspirational year. Infinite Health Resources took me places in the world of health, I never knew existed. I have listed below some 95 or so dietary theories. I have not researched or read all 95 theories, and I don’t plan to either. I did read about 15 or so. Of those 15, I came away with one basic fact. A well-rounded diet, low in saturated fat and high in vegetables, fruits and whole grains was the advice of the most notable authors. Funny thing in life. My Italian grandparents’ followed that lifestyle in food some 75 years ago. They had very little education and never read one diet book, they lived a medicine free life  to the age of 78 and 79.
One fact remains. A well balanced diet of whole foods, with plenty of water, sleep and exercise is the only answer to the dieting craze. It is not about dieting. It is a lifestyle.
We at Infinite Health Resources advocate a lifestyle of whole grains, fruits, vegetables (preferably organic), no dairy or very little dairy, and very little saturated fat. Our recipe section gives you some simple meal plans. In addition to the meals in our recipe section add nuts like almonds, walnuts and pumpkin seeds. These are great snacks.
Please stay away from processed foods. Please stay away from fast foods. There is absolutely nothing good about this food. This food will bring you down. This food will make you feel lethargic. This food will make you sick. Whole foods, like fruits and vegetables and whole grains will keep your energy levels up. These foods will keep your body fighting those free radicals that are in your body waiting to form into a disease. This is not a diet. This is a lifestyle.
Starting is as simple as changing one meal a day the first week or two. Start with breakfast. Lay off the scrambled eggs with cheese and bacon. Go for the bran cereal with strawberries or blueberries. Several weeks later, lay off the cheeseburger deluxe for lunch. Go for the broccoli and beans with pasta or the veggie-wraps. The following week try one of our recipes in our recipe section for dinner. Put aside the soda and diet sodas. They are making your body toxic and feeding the free radicals in your body, which may lead to life threatening diseases.
Unless you are on a physician prescribed diet, get rid of those proven to fail diet plans, adopt the lifestyle that is guaranteed to make you feel and look great.

The Battle in Your Mind

You will never go beyond the barriers in your own mind. If you think you can’t do something, then you never will. The battle is in your mind. If you are defeated in your mind, you’ve already lost the battle. If you don’t think you have what it takes to rise up and set new standards, it’s not going to happen. Thebattle is in your mind. If you fail to break those barriers of the past, you run the risk of dietary failure.. That is why I list some 95 diet theories. Many of us go around in circles when it comes to proper nutrition. Stop dieting. Start living. Share the lifestyle with the people you love and live well together. Stop spinning your wheels.

Today is A New Day

No matter what you have done in the past, no matter how many setbacks you have suffered to slow your progress, remember, today is a new day, and God wants you to have a new and healthy experience in your life today. He has great things in store for you. Don not let your past determine the future. Think success and you will be successful.

Change Your Self-Image

Consider this: You can change the image you have of yourself. How? Agree with how God sees you. God sees you as strong and courageous, as a man or woman of great honor and valor. Start seeing yourself as God sees you. Quit making excuses. Step up to the plate and go for the upper deck, the grand slam. Are you allowing your weaknesses and insecurities to keep you from being your best? Don not focus on your weaknesses. Focus on the strength God gave us all. See yourself as a winner.
You may not be perfect – nobody is! Sure- you’ve got some flaws – we all do! But to be truly free, you must have a healthy respect for yourself in spite of those imperfections. The key to the healthy future is to not be discouraged about past diet failures. Dieting is over. Lose the word from your vocabulary.  Enter – lifestyle change. The good thing about lifestyle change is that you can sway from it occasionally. Events such as parties and vacations interfere with lifestyle change, no need to feel guilty. Indulge, don’t overdo it. You will easily go back to good eating habits, because it’s a lifestyle.                                                                         
Remember, buy and eat organic whenever possible. Wash all your fruits and vegetables well. Buying organic will help your body to fight free radical development. Modern agriculture is loaded with pesticides and insecticides.
Drink organic green tea and 8-10 glasses of water. Keep your body cleansed and your bowels empty. Eat right and live long. The natural way.

Put an end to dieting. Start living – TODAY!
Begin your lifestyle change. Please view our many articles on a healthy lifestyle. You will never spend a dime on another diet book, CD or diet food again.
Remember, exercise is important. That doesn’t mean a membership at the local gym. A brisk 1-mile walk in the evening is all it takes. Walk up the stairs whenever you can. Stay loose. Stretch out.
I walk nightly with my wife. We walk a mile or more to the supermarket. Pick up a few things and walk back home. It’s great. Once your metabolism becomes accustomed to this, you actually burn calories all day.

Remember,always check with your physician before beginning any exercise regimen.
