Sounds like an interesting diet method. Clearly, the less processed food is, the more healthy it is. I’m not sure if we need to go this far. I’ve been looking at the Mediterranean diet. What do you think of the Mediterranean diet as a basic guideline for a healthy diet?
I think the Mediterranean diet is a solid place to start. Lots of fresh fruits and veg, fresh fish and healthy fats. I checked out your website post “confused by nutrition headlines” and I totally agree with you about looking at the big picture.
It’s criminal really that so much resource is put in the minute details and the big picture largely forgotten. In fact this is one of my main gripes — lets look at the whole diet on the whole person. The rest can certainly give us clues and ideas, but we must fit new knowledge into the bigger picture.
Unfortunately, much of the confusion comes from folk with hidden agendas… stuff to sell or ideals to promote.
The ‘Mediterranean’ also conjures up images of warm lazy evenings, eating al fresco, socializing with friends whilst watching the sunset to the lullaby of chirping crickets… can’t be bad :-)
Good luck with your diet and your site Andrew… “yo-yo is a no-no”, I just made that up what d’you think? Actually, don’t tell me :-)
