Are There Diets According To The SD-Stages?

[Rilles]

Blue: ???

Orange: Eat meat, drink alcohol, protein-shakes, eat alot! 3 meals a day! Youre too skinny boy!

Green: Try fasting! Try veganism! Poor animals are killed for nothing! You need more greens! Supplements! Eat once a day! More awareness of the energy in in the body.

Yellow: ???

 

(A very basic view of diets according to the stages)

Yellow: Eat what resonates with your body. Eat when hungry and finish when satiated. Yellow will probably not giv in to dogma like veganism, paleo, carnivore however he will make sure to eat healthy to support his energy levels, mood and productivity,. Yellow will see food as a fuel not a plessure however he will enjoy good food every once in a while but will not let it rule his life. 

Bue: Eat what your culture tells you and do not eat what god forbids or what is not right. You need to have  strong etiquette and you must not eat like a pig. Ramadan would be blue or any form of religious fasting. Halal is blue, or avoiding red meat in Hindu culture. Eating sushi with chopstick while avoiding cutlery or piercing of the food with chopstick in japan is blue. Thanksgiving turkey seems like a pretty blue thing or traditional christmas dinner. Christmas crackers and wearing the "queen's crown" in the UK (  @Charlotte is this still a thing?) seems is also a bit blue traidion in my opinion

I'd say food consciousness really begins to develop at stage orange. Orange people (especially silicon valley people) tend to love low-carb because it allows for intermittent fasting and improved cognitive functioning, which frees up time to focus on achievement-oriented goals. There's little to no thought about the source or quality of the food.

When people transition to Green, they begin to worry more about the source and quality of the food they eat. They also begin to consider the moral issues behind eating animal products. This is where they either opt for grass-fed/pasture-raised animal products, or they ditch them entirely. Then, if they research the link between diet and higher states of consciousness... they enter the borderline orthorexic phase: Fasting, colonics, raw foods, detox, sattvic diet, etc. In the orthorexic community, I tend to see leftover narcissistic residue from Orange. A lot of vegans think they are doing it for the animals, when really, they are doing it for their own health and longevity. The reduction to harm to animals is just a bonus.

I haven't reached Yellow yet, but my guess is that they ditch all food dogmas entirely and eat intuitively and mindfully. Most of them probably eat vegetarian with the occasional animal food here and there. 

Another dimension to consider is the conservative vs. liberal type.

Conservatively-minded people tend to gravitate towards Weston A. Price/paleo/keto/GAPS/carnivore style diets because they are based on traditional ways of eating that supposedly align with (at least part of) the human specie's evolutionary history and physiology.

Liberally-minded people tend to gravitate towards vegetarianism/veganism/raw food style diets because they are forward-thinking and bring into account new environmental, scientific, and physical factors when it comes to diet. 

Quote

"The pleasure you gain from eating, Dan, is limited to the taste of the food and the feeling of a full belly. You must learn to enjoy the entire process--the hunger beforehand, the careful preparation, setting an attractive table, chewing, breathing, smelling, tasting, swallowing, and the feeling of lightness and energy after the meal. Finally, you can enjoy the full and easy elimination of the food after it's digested. When you pay attention to all these elements, you'll begin to appreciate simple meals; you won't need as much food... The irony of your present eating habits is that while you fear missing a meal, you aren't fully aware of the meals you do eat."
