Download or read book Healthy at Last written by Eric Adams and published by Hay House, Inc. This book was released on 2020-10-13 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York mayor Eric Adams is on a mission to tackle one of the most stubborn health problems in the country: chronic disease in the African American community. African Americans are heavier and sicker than any other group in the U.S., with nearly half of all Black adults suffering from some form of cardiovascular disease. After Adams woke up with severe vision loss one day in 2016, he learned that he was one of the nearly 5 million Black people living with diabetes-and, according to his doctor, he would have it for the rest of his life. A police officer for more than two decades, Adams was a connoisseur of the fast-food dollar menu. Like so many Americans with stressful jobs, the last thing he wanted to think about was eating healthfully. Fast food was easy, cheap, and comfortable. His diet followed him from the squad car to the state senate, and then to Brooklyn Borough Hall, where it finally caught up with him. But Adams was not ready to become a statistic. There was a better option besides medication and shots of insulin: food. Within three months of adopting a plant-based diet, he lost 35 pounds, lowered his cholesterol by 30 points, restored his vision, and reversed his diabetes. Now he is on a mission to revolutionize the health of not just the borough of Brooklyn, but of African Americans across the country. Armed with the hard science and real-life stories of those who have transformed their bodies by changing their diet, Adams shares the key steps for a healthy, active life. With this book, he shows readers how to avoid processed foods, cut down on salt, get more fiber, and substitute beef, chicken, pork, and dairy with delicious plant-based alternatives. In the process he explores the origins of soul food-a cuisine deeply important to the Black community, but also one rooted in the horrors of slavery-and how it can be reimagined with healthy alternatives. Features more than 50 recipes from celebrities and health experts, including Paul McCartney, Queen Afua, Jenné Claiborne, Bryant Jennings, Charity Morgan, Moby, and more! The journey to good health begins in the kitchen-not the hospital bed!

The recipes and pictures made me hungry. Great job." Diabetic Diet Plan - The Beginners Guide Healthy Eating & Keeping the Flavor! My career exposes me to many individuals who have multiple medical issues relating to diabetes. Unfortunately, poor eating habits and mismanaging glucose (blood sugar) levels may have contributed to their poor health. Heart disease, loss of limbs, poor eye-sight or blindness, and kidney failure that requires dialysis, is common. A year and one half ago my mother was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. My family immediately envisioned the worst as far as her future health. We knew a change in her eating habits would need to improve so my family committed to helping her with a lifestyle change. Momma was raised in rural America where carbs and sugars were part of the staples of life. A common meal was meat (usually fried) and potatoes covered with lots of gravy, biscuits or cornbread lathered with butter, sweet tea, and dessert after every meal. And evidently, vegetables were not tasty enough naturally because equal parts of bacon or some kind of pork fat was always added. Ironically, at that time my younger sister was dealing with gestational diabetes during her pregnancy so she volunteered to come over and "taste test" the new recipes I created, she's always been helpful that way. After hours of researching the Internet gathering data and ideas, and trying recipes... I put together this guide to help Momma and others get started with their diabetic diet plan without giving up the delicious flavors of food... only the frustration.
