Eating more Whole food
…because I always need a reminder to do this!
A copy and paste from today’s ‘Sydney Morning Herald’
“…humans do better on food that's as close to its original state as possible
-As for escaping from a diet of highly processed food Michael Pollan (Author of ‘In Defense of food) advice includes:
- Don't eat anything your great grandmother wouldn't recognise as food
- Avoid food products containing ingredients that are a) unfamiliar, b) unpronounceable c) more than five in number.
- Avoid food products that make health claims (food products making health claims are in packets and more likely to be processed, he points out)
- Shop the peripheries of the supermarket and stay out of the middle - processed foods dominate the center aisles, while fresher food is around the walls.
- Get out of the supermarket whenever possible. Pollan's advice here is to try and shop at farmer's markets whenever you can.”
What about you? How easy is it for you to eat more whole food and less processed food?
