Basic Guidelines: Do not eat things out of boxes or cans. Eat as fresh as possible. If you must eat something out of a box or can, make sure it is not a processed food. Eat fresh, simple, proteins, vegetables ad libum and whole fats. Do not eat things that have been broken apart into partial foods--like low fat, or pasteurized. Eat raw, organic, pesticide free whole foods. Go light on grain. If you eat grains, eat unprocessed whole grains. Strive to have about 5 colors of food on your plate except for white. Stay away from the whites: white flour, white sugar, potatoes, etc.
