Our combined experience has helped us bring to you a way of eating that is not new nor fully ours. We have taken from those who we feel are experts in the field and utilize methods that we felt were useful and valid for supreme health and discarded that which we felt were not of use to us through experience. Every human is different and come from different genetic lines. This difference predisposes us to different needs. For example, some may react better to dairy but we feel that most will not benefit from dairy compared to the possible health cost. This goes the same for all of our other nutritional eliminations.
Our main focus is to control insulin, reduce the chances of auto-immunity by eliminating gluten and other gut irritants, bring our healthy Omega 3 fatty acid profile into balance with our population's ever-growing, disease-causing Omega 6 profile (n-3 = n-6), and avoid unhealthful levels of fructose and dairy.
This philosophy is ever changing and will remain so for as long as new research and new experiences challenge our beliefs or question our methods. Until then, integrate our pillars into your eating habits and notice the healing take place within your body. You will look, perform, and feel better than you ever have, in all facets of life.
Nutrisimple Recommendations
A. Nutritional Eliminations or Reductions
- Eliminate all grains (cereal, wheat, corn, potatoes, rice, barley, oats, quinoa, spelt, rye etc.)
- Eliminate or severely reduce dairy (yogurt, milk, cheese, cottage cheese) (raw, grass-fed milk only)
- Eliminate legumes (all beans including soy, pinto, black, lima, etc as well as peanuts and lentils)
- Eliminate all processed foods (comes in box, shelf life, sodas, baby formula)
- Eliminate all sugar (dextrose, lactose, saccharides, disaccharides, corn syrup, galactose, honey, sucrose, etc.)
- Eliminate all artificial sweeteners including Stevia, Agave Nectar, splenda, etc.
- Consume meat, eggs, fish, and wild game.
- When possible consume all meat from pastured beef and pork, truly free-roaming poultry and eggs, wild caught fish, which are all fed or eat their natural diet including fattiest cuts and organ meat.
- If eating Grain-Fed animals, stick to the leanest cuts possible and/or remove visible fat.
- Consume store bought eggs that are enriched with Omega-3 fatty acids (never avoid the yolk)
- Protein powders must be used in moderation. Whole foods are best. Look for powders that are made from grass-fed animals.
C. Fat
- Consume a diet primarily consisting of fat.
- Clean saturated fat is necessary.
- Good sources of saturated fat include animal fat and coconut milk.
- Full fat whipping cream and butter may be used in moderation but should come from grass-fed animal sources.
- Monounsaturated fats should be of importance as well, coming in the form of certain nuts/nut butters, certain oils, and avocados.
- Polyunsaturated fatty acids (such as vegetable oils) should be kept to trace amounts OTHER than Omega-3s.
- Avoid all sources of Trans-fats.
- Nuts and seeds should be limited to 2 servings or less per day, especially for those wishing to lean out.
D. Carbohydrate
- Carbohydrate consumption should be strictly moderated and should come 90% in the form of seasonal vegetables
- Leafy greens and/or colorful vegetables should be a major part of the this diet.
- Organic produce really is best. It is worth the extra cost.
- Most fruit intake should occur in the morning. (Limit to 2 servings or less per day)
- Stay away from gluten-free foods (packaged as gluten-free) as well. They are processed and still affect insulin.
- Avoid foods that contain moderate to high amounts of fructose (Google it)
E. Supplementation
- Omega-3 fish oils should be a primary supplement in the diet with 1 gram consumed for every 20 pounds of body-weight per day if following my nutritional recommendations and less and less as the diet moves to clean meat.
- Fish oil should be bumped up to 1 gram for every 10 pounds of body-weight if injured, bad sleeping habits, over-weight, auto-immune disorders, and poor nutritional intake.
- Vitamin K has shown promise.
- Taking Vitamin D is essential (2000-5000 I.U.'s / This can be tested for.).
- Magnesium before sleep may prove worthy as most humans are deficient in this mineral.
- Raw, Organic Kombucha Tea has live cultures that keep internal ecosystem/gut flora healthy and clean. I would advise drinking some and finding out how your body responds to it.
- A clean (possibly organic) multivitamin is smart. (with usually little to no iron needed, depending on sex)
- A reliable probiotic daily is essential to good gut health whether that is kombucha tea, sauerkraut, or in supplement form. Lots suffer from digestive problems that keep them sick and/or overweight.
- Sleep. In addition to what you get at night shoot for one to two 15 minute naps whenever possible and watch how your life changes.
- Stress. In this hectic world we live in take time often to pray, meditate, laugh, cry, be active, have sex, play, rest, do charity work, and other things of this nature to help keep your life balanced.
F. Food Sources
Support your local sustainable farms by purchasing the above foods from them rather than grocery stores whenever possible. Sustain the earth, it's the only one we got..
