More About Eat for Health…

 

Dr. Joel Fuhrman is one of the leaders in holistic nutrition and how to use diet to heal. I love doctor Fuhrman’s work because it accomplishes dietary principles and goals that I already believe in. These include eating plant-based or mostly plant-based foods, eating generous amounts of fresh greens and other vegetables, as well as fruits, berries, nuts and seeds, and other nutritionally dense plant foods.

Special emphasis is given to choosing foods that have a high ratio of micronutients, or non-caloric vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytonutrients to calorie ratio. He takes this to a whole new level by assigning all foods an ANDI score or Aggregate Nutrient Density Index. For instance, let’s say you eat a salad. You take some iceberg lettuce and dump some gross store bought salad dressing from a plastic bottle on it and it contains various artificial ingredients and the primary high calorie component is soybean oil from GMO soybeans. The iceberg lettuce itself has almost nonexistent levels of micronutrients so essentially you are putting calories in your body from GMO soy oil with virtually none of the many healing micronutrients that healthy plant based foods come with. This salad would have a very low score for nutrient to calorie ratio because of using foods with a low ANDI score, yet people eat them all the time thinking they are “being so good with their diet today for eating a salad”.

As Dr. Fuhrman explains, the whole things was so devoid of nutrients that from a health standpoint you may as well have just drank the cheap salad dressing. On the other hand if you make a salad out of darker greens and lettuces, and then put a nutritionally dense homemade salad dressing made from things such as blended nuts and seeds, avocados, and healthy vinegars and herbs, you have drastically enhanced the healthfulness of that salad. Not to mention the fact that eating the first salad described is gross once you get accustomed to eating a real salad.

Other principles Dr. Fuhrman teaches besides choosing highly nutritious foods are how to prepare them in a way to preserve those nutrients and concentrate them, eating more raw foods, and creating delicious meal plans.

Although not everyone thrives on the same diet, I highly recommend this diet or some modified version of it for anyone with Lyme disease, Fibromyalgia, autoimmune disease, vascular or heart disease, high blood pressure, migraines, and many other health conditions. This is a good base diet plan. Here are a few modifications to make it even better for you as an individual:

1. If you are very thin the complete avoidance of all oils might not be best for you at this time because you need the calories. Someone underweight can benefit from high quality healthful oils like flax oil, olive oil, coconut oil, organic butter, and high quality fish oil.

2. The diet allows small amounts of dairy like skim milk, and large amounts of gluten in the form of whole wheat. It is likely that someone who is really trying to heal may want to avoid these and find alternatives like non-gluten grains and bread, and plant based milks like rice milk, coconut milk and others (please no soy milk).

3. While doctor Fuhrman’s diet could revolutionize American health and the obesity epidemic with all its problems like high blood pressure, his strict avoidance of salt is not needed for someone with Adrenal exhaustion, fatigue, and low blood pressure. Some healthful salt like Himalayan salt added to this diet would be fine in those cases. In fact most people could add a little salt to this diet and it would be OK., but never let salt become your main seasoning. Your taste buds will progressively desensitize to the salt and you will eat more and more. I believe in limiting salt and instead using a wide variety of healthful spices. A healthy diet doesn’t need to be bland.

4. Some people are fast oxidizers. They burn fat and protein quickly and need lots of if for their metabolism. These folks would do better not going completely plant based or vegan, but instead adding some high quality grass fed organic meats into their diet and also focusing on plant foods that are high in protein.
