Here's my diet which works very well for me:
- I prefer fish to meat
- I almost never eat red meat,
- I organize my meals to eat fish/meat only once a day
- Lots of vegetables and fruits
- No desert, no cakes, no sweetie, no ice cream, no soda, no sugar (by "no" I mean on very rare occasions)
- Very little dairy products, especially no cheese at all. Milk is ok.
- No butter, ever would it be directly or indirectly
- No alcohol
- Avoid processed food
- Little or no bread
You need to understand there's no universally good diet, depending on the individual some diet work well and some don't. What matters is to eat different stuff and of good quality.

- wlievens 16y agoWhen I eat bad for a while, I feel unenergetic, I get sporadic bowel cramps and headaches. When I eat consistenly healthy for a period, I really feel it. Maybe he means that?
- eavc 16y agoI'm addicted to refined carbs and caffeine and junk food, so when I don't eat those for a while, I feel pretty awful. How things feel doesn't always give you the best guidance, especially if you're not good at tracking those things accurately.

- cpearce 16y ago> I prefer fish to meat As much as I like fish, and though it is in general good for you, commercial fishing is emptying our oceans at an alarming and unsustainable rate. If humans keep fishing at the current rate, we'll have emptied the oceans of fish by some time in the later half of this century. We'll be left with jellyfish, worms and krill as our only seafood. Do you want your grandchildren to eat fish? Only buy sustainably sourced seafood! See the documentary "The end of the line" for evidence and info: http://endoftheline.com/ http://endoftheline.com/
- oomkiller 16y agoWhere does sustainable start? I was looking into farm raised fish today and it seems they cause problems for wild populations, AND are worse for you. One example I read was about farm raised salmon having almost no Omega-3 and lots of Omega-6.
- cpearce 16y agoMost fish eat smaller fish. So farmed fish are fed fishfood which is made from caught wild fish. It takes something like 5kg of anchovies to make 1kg of farmed salmon. Sustainable fishing means taking less from the sea, adhering to quotas, not continuing to catch species at risk, and setting up sanctuaries where fish stocks can replenish.
- punteney 16y agoYou might want to check out Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch program for guidance. They have both small cards fold up guides you can keep with you or an iphone app that gives recommendations on the type of seafood that can be eaten sustainably and which ones you should avoid. http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/SeafoodWatch/web/sfw_iPhone.aspx http://www.montereybayaquarium.org/cr/SeafoodWatch/web/sfw_i...
- shin_lao 16y agoMy friend, the problem is not that we eat too much fish, but that we are just too many. If you want to leave a beautiful Earth to your grandchildren you must not have children.
