Foods to Stay Away From When Eating Clean!

 

• Any and all fast foods. These are perhaps the worst offenders, as they somehow taste great when you are hungry, you eat them quickly, and they contain all the ingredients you don’t need or your body wants; such as trans-fats, incurrent food combinations (cola drinks with proteins and carbohydrates), and an excess of calories.

• Any “processed” food. ANY...this means food that has been treated in an industrial setting.

•An average fast food meal is about 1,000 or more calories. It is often more, and leaves you hungry in about 2 hours.

• Any “deep-fried” foods. This includes the famous potato, but can also include fried meats (such as fried chicken), and some sweets, such as the donut or many oriental-type sweets. These kill your diet, raise insulin levels in the blood, and there is no way to lose weight.

• All poly-saturated and animal fat. We do not say to you to eliminate fat, just eat the correct ones. These are found in fish, some vegetables and some dairy products (where omega-3 oils have been incorporated to the dairy animal’s feed).

• White Flour. There is nothing in it good for you, nothing. Whole wheat or other whole grains are another story. Eat them as you wish, but NO white flour. It is a dead food itself, and only causes unbalances in your digestive system. White flour was invented as it does not spoil, where whole grains do. The bugs know which is best to eat. They eat the whole grains and not bleached processed white flour.

• White Sugar. As its carbohydrate cousin above, white sugar also has very little or no nutritional value.

TIPS

• Eating a mini-meal every two to three hours (5 to 6 small meals per day total) to keep blood sugar leveland prevent hunger.

• Combining lean proteins and complex carbs at every meal

• Avoiding all over-processed and refined foods(especially sugar, white rice, and white flour)

• Avoiding saturated and trans fat, instead consuming healthy fats

• Avoiding soda and other sugary juices and drinks

• Avoiding high-calorie, zero nutrient foods (i.e., junk food)

• Eating proper portion sizes

• Drinking at least 8 cups of water every day
