Diet regimens

[at_anchor]

Predictable, fast and easy diet plan or routine for overall health and wellbeing that satisfies all the micro and macro nutritional needs is what is missing here.

Quantity and quality is important here. What would one day of eating super healthy look like from your point of view? 

Example:

• 100g of nuts (500cal + vit E and minerals in sufficient quantities) 50g at 10AM & 50g at 5PM for snacks with a carrot and some persley.
• 100g of chia seeds with a sliced apple and lemon juice (500cal + vit C and minerals) at 7AM.
• Mix a little bit of all raw vegetables with two to three whole boiled eggs and 100g of dried pinto beans boiled (400 cal + vitamins).
• 200g of oats with a few berries on top at 8PM. (560cal).

How long would you be able to enjoy this diet? Do you have any better ideas or objections?

This is gluten, lactose and casein free diet plan just in case it really is better to stay off of that. Also, it doesn't contain soy because of a high likelihood that it is GMO and additional estrogen problems. I actually like soy milk and soy meat, but it has to be fried in oil to taste good.

Also 2-3 liters of water a day, preferably purified and without flouride, chloride, heavy metals, etc. What dou you think?

It looks fine, but who wants to eat exactly that all of the time? I think a version of that which allows for variance in the diet as long as the other options are relatively healthy would work best. Practically speaking, a 100% clean and nutritionally-optimized diet for physical health is likely not the best for overall health when considering the effects being too strict can have on mental, emotional, and spiritual health.

Right now my diet is not timely, ordered, clean and structured kind of like this so that's why I'm having these emotional and other problems. It cannot be where I'm at.

This was just an example. I didn't eat Chia seeds for years, except for the first time yesterday in rice cakes with some soar cream an onions. It also contains soy, so currently I'm on soy, dairy and gluten.

I think the best thing would be to eat caviar in the morning with a nice salad or some other wild caught fish low in heavy metals and maybe high quality rice instead of oats before bed would be perfect. I don't wanna have fruits, beans or grains for breakfast.

If the convenience helps at all, I like to supplement my diet with things like soylent. I just fill up and drink a single bottle a day which helps easily add 1k calories and a full nutritional loadout alongside whatever else I'm eating that day. Similar products would be things like huel and mana.

EatThisMuch is a neat little website which helps generate daily meal plans that cover all your nutritional needs.

It seems a bit too restrictive. It would be hard to sustain this for too long I'd imagine. Even as a daily example it is just too...I dunno...dull? Too functional. Like the vegans who only eat porridge all the time and then complain about hair loss and thyroid issues 

You gotta spice it up. Add more ingredients, more variety, more flavours, spixes, herbs. Actually something you'll enjoy life-long. Learn 10 decent balanced recipes and spin them around. Some vegan, some vegetarian and some pescetarian or some wity other meat if you eat meat. 

If you can't be bothered about any of that consider learning to batch cook in a pressure cooker 

It becomes very liberating once the diet is no longer just functional but also savoury and deeply satisfying. 

But as long as that split works, it's all good 

What's wrong with soy and gluten tho

 I always feel my ADHD symptoms increase after eating some bread, let's say. It also might be associated with hairloss.

Add spices and whatever you'd like. Here is another vegan example:

• Hazelnuts 100g + 15g chia seeds + a bit of persley and carrots + glass of lemon juice at 7AM or earlier. Vit. D3 is taken here as well as a lot of clean water.
• A mix salad with as many of vegetables you can find including red onions with whole boiled eggs and egg yolks for lunch. 
• Beans with a garlicy flavour with a cucumber salad for dinner.

I don't think this is too restrictive. People usually eat bread with some sort of a cream on top and spagetti for lunch and dinner. They don't eat vegetables. That can cause problems, like the poridge example you mentioned. 

There is no processed oil in the diet and I think that if you can make it work it's better than the alternatives.

 

Another good diet would be just eating a bunch of rice and chicken breasts with a bit of extra virgine olive oil for cooking purposes, with enough servings of organic veggies.  But there are ethical concerns with that and it's a bit more expensive.

@at_anchor Not all bread / gluten is created equally, most cheap breads are shit but you just gotta look for decent wholemeal ones with proper ingredients. 

Also, you'll go crazy on that diet haha, the best Nutritionist I've found is Simon Hill who helps people go WFPB (whole food plant based) but actually with taste and not some crazy prison diet

He also covers the supplements needed / recommended and has loads of recipes on his sites. 

Most Vegan cookbooks are decent from Amazon if you find a few, just get used to cooking like Michal said and keep adding to recipes you can create at different times of day.
