Your Plate, Your Fate
If you’re reading this, you already know that
the food you eat is not just calories that give you
energy and fuel your body, but the basic building block
for healthy living and fighting disease.
If you would like to find out a whole lot more, then we recommend visiting the Healing Gourmet.
This is a wonderful program of information, tips, hints, recipes and more – in fact a way for healthy living to start right now. Find out that food is information, cellular fuel, immune support, free-radical defense, detoxification, hormonal balance, and glowing, supple skin… all wrapped up in a delicious, disease-fighting package.
Your Plate, Your Fate is a health transformation program, presented as a series of e-books, that is essential for anyone who wants to lose unwanted fat and live healthier… longer!
Your Plate, Your Fate is your forever guidebook for using food and nutrients to improve your health and vitality, lose weight, slow down the aging process, and prevent disease.
Your Plate, Your Fate may appear to be seven individual pieces about very different topics. What you’ll find is that (just like your health) the entire series is interconnected…
You don’t just wake up one day with diabetes. You don’t catch cancer. And your memory isn’t here one day, and then gone the next.
All of these chronic illnesses take years, or even decades, of the same internal destructive processes before the diagnosis occurs.
These destructive internal processes are “The Big Five” and within the Your Plate, Your Fate health transformation system, you will learn specifically (and deliciously!) how to tame these health foes.
Here they are:
Inflammation: The Quiet Killer – Inflammation helps your body defend against invaders and repair injuries. But chronic inflammation is different. This quiet killer is the cornerstone of degenerative disease and physical aging. The good news is that the three primary causes of chronic inflammation are completely within your control. You’ll learn what they are… and dozens of delicious ways to tame the flames.
Glycation: A Sticky Situation – When you consume too many carbohydrates or foods prepared in a certain way, compounds called advanced glycation endproducts (AGEs) form. These sticky molecules speed up the aging process and cause a steady deterioration of your health. The good news is that it can be easy to guard against AGEs. You’ll learn the tasty ways to protect yourself.
Oxidation: The Radical Robber – The average cell in your body is attacked by more than 10,000 free radicals every day. This “oxidation” process is perfectly natural. But left unchecked, it can lead to rapid physical aging and chronic disease. You’ll learn how to guard your precious cells with delicious, antioxidant-rich foods… and how to get your body to make more of its own antioxidant artillery.
Depletion: The Silent Sapper – Researchers have shown that a deficiency of many key nutrients can mimic the same damage to your DNA as observed from exposure to radiation! If your body is missing nutrients, your health will suffer… Guaranteed! Learn why many of the plants and animal products we eat are nutritionally bankrupt… and how to get more bang from of every bite!
Toxification: The Body Burdened – While the nutrients in our foods are decreasing, our exposure to harmful toxins is increasing. From the chemicals in our food and water, to the medicines we take and the products we put on our skin – our liver is on overload, and our health is paying the price. These toxins can cause disease, impair immunity, damage your hormonal system and even cause you to store fat. But there is a pollution solution. With good choices, you can keep the poison off your plate and put your internal detox machinery in high gear.
Think about your lifestyle and that of people you know, friends and family, who don’t seem to have the same ailments or health concerns. Could it be related to diet? Don’t you owe it to yourself to find out?
It’s sometimes not easy to start a new program; we’re all the products of our environments and backgrounds, and changing habits can be very, very difficult. Remember though: change from an unhealthy habit to a healthy one, and you have a new habit that’s good for you! Everyone can do this. But it helps to have help, and the Healing Gourmet provides it.
Here’s a terrific recipe for a low fat, low calorie salad dressing. Light on fat but heavy on flavour:
Ingredients
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoon Dijon mustard (if you don’t have Dijon, any wholegrain mustard is fine)
1 1/2 tablespoon honey
3 tablespoons nonfat Greek yogurt (may substitute regular nonfat yogurt but finished product will be a little different)
1/2 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil.
Directions
Mix well. Store in refrigerator. For some variations, add a clove of chopped garlic and a teaspoon of pesto paste. You can actually do without the oil, too. This is a really delicious recipe which has drawn me lots of favourable comments.
