Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An archaeologist and chef explains how to follow our ancestors' lead when it comes to dietary choices and cooking techniques for optimum health and vitality. "Read this book!" (Mark Hyman, MD, author of Food) Our relationship with food is filled with confusion and insecurity. Vegan or carnivore? Vegetarian or gluten-free? Keto or Mediterranean? Fasting or Paleo? Every day we hear about a new ingredient that is good or bad, a new diet that promises everything. But the secret to becoming healthier, losing weight, living an energetic life, and healing the planet has nothing to do with counting calories or feeling deprived—the key is re‑learning how to eat like a human. This means finding food that is as nutrient-dense as possible, and preparing that food using methods that release those nutrients and make them bioavailable to our bodies, which is exactly what allowed our ancestors to not only live but thrive. In Eat Like a Human, archaeologist and chef Dr. Bill Schindler draws on cutting-edge science and a lifetime of research to explain how nutrient density and bioavailability are the cornerstones of a healthy diet. He shows readers how to live like modern “hunter-gatherers” by using the same strategies our ancestors used—as well as techniques still practiced by many cultures around the world—to make food as safe, nutritious, bioavailable, and delicious as possible. With each chapter dedicated to a specific food group, in‑depth explanations of different foods and cooking techniques, and concrete takeaways, as well as 75+ recipes, Eat Like a Human will permanently change the way you think about food, and help you live a happier, healthier, and more connected life.

This book was released on 2016-11 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Start healing your body with food. The anti-inflammatory Vitality Diet shows you the foods to eat to heal inflammation, gain health and lose the weight stemming from an inflamed body. The anti-inflammatory diet is not a fad; it has been used by thousands of people for the last 30 years, helping them obtain their ideal bodies and increase their overall sense of well being. You probably know people who embody the concept of vitality. They're the people in your life with almost endless energy, the friends and family members that have passion and empathy. Being in their presence calms and energizes you-they just feel good to be around. Their enthusiasm for life rubs off on you. They just have something different, something special. "Almost immediately on starting the diet, my concentration and memory - specifically my recall of events, facts and words - became sharper than at any time in my life. Rather suddenly, my struggle to integrate mountains of studies into a coherent framework for our book became almost easy. At the same time, my occasional symptoms of American malaise disappeared, including episodic insomnia, low grade anxiety and occasional bouts of mild depression. Within weeks my chronic asthma went into complete remission. My occasional migraine headaches (including "auras" in which I would transiently lose vision) disappeared, and oddly, my tendency to become car sick vanished. Another surprise was that my typically dreadful experience of the common cold came to an end. In fact I stopped contracting colds at all, even when family members brought viral illnesses back to our home." Dr. Jill Stein wrote these words and the Forward to this book. The Vitality Diet is the fastest way to health and perfect for everyone, because it is a guide that doesn't depend on exercise, calorie restriction, or fish for Omega 3s. The Vitality Diet appeals to vegetarian and vegan followers of the Paleo Diet and Gluten-Free Diet, who are still struggling for optimum health, as well as anyone interested in the health benefits of ethical eating. The Vitality Diet is written in a conversational, easy-to-understand style. It includes the latest research and guidelines on how to use anti-inflammatory foods to alleviate a variety of inflammatory disorders including: chronic pain, ADD/ADHD, Alzheimer's, rheumatoid arthritis, and depression, just to name a few. The Vitality Diet explains the science behind the anti-inflammatory diet and the foods that form the mainstay of the diet as well as how to restore alkalinity to the body. The author, Sarah Manski, offers an encouraging real-life perspective on life-changing methods to obtain optimum health, including her personal journey with weight loss. The Vitality Diet is designed to cool the body's immune inflammatory response through the replacement of meat, dairy, bread and potatoes, processed foods, nightshade vegetables, and refined sugars with nutrient-dense real foods, including: nutritious salads, bean stews, vegetable curries, organic humane eggs, fruit sweetened treats, and more. In addition to informing the reader about the basics of inflammation and why it causes people to gain weight and suffer from illness, the author moves beyond the basics and gives the reader additional information needed to achieve their health goals. This includes an explanation of candida yeast infections, an evolutionary explanation for sugar and fat cravings, the importance of balanced alkalinity, what to look for in health supplements, why calorie counting doesn't work, policies for a healthful planet, chiropractic care, and more. The Vitality Diet is a must-have guide to those who are interested in an anti-inflammatory diet, healing their body with food, or simply looking to improve their digestive health and - by extension - achieve healthy aging and mental well-being.

Download or read book Plant based Paleo written by Jenna Zoe and published by Ryland Peters & Small. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Understand the paleo approach to nutrition and create clean foods that your body will harness for sustenance, well-being and vitality. Sources say that before our ancestors learned to hunt, they ate a raw diet comprised of what they could gather in the wilderness. The plant-based diet gave us everything we needed then, and it does now! Plant proteins are easier for the body to absorb than animal proteins. A plant-based diet provides 10–15% of calories from protein, a safe intake for a healthy human. When eating a raw diet, nuts, sprouts, seeds, sprouted grains and leafy greens are examples of foods that are especially protein-rich. Recommended calcium intake is more healthfully achieved by eating leafy green vegetables like kale, and other calcium rich non-dairy foods like broccoli, seaweed, sesame seeds, and sprouted quinoa. Plants absorb calcium from soil; animals eat these plants to satisfy their hunger and nutrient needs. A plant-based diet goes straight to the source for healthy, easily absorbed calcium and much more. Jenna has created recipes to be enjoyed at any time of the day. Try Hemp Tabbouleh with Mint and Pomegranate, Kale Caesar Salad, Sweet Potato Gnocchi, Grilled Romaine Hearts with Ranch Aioli, Portobello Pizza Caps, Mango-Avocado Rolls, Raw Vegan Taco Salad, Cauli-Pops, Eggplant ‘bacon’, Raw Pad Thai, Green Curry with Jicama Rice, and for a sweet tooth Homemade Coconut Yogurt or Mango & Blueberry Tart.
