if you want more on health, IMO Tim Ferris is one of the best to listen to. The guy's a real nerd about optimising his health and shares it all.

Don't make it too complicated. The healthiest diet is one based on organic unprocessed whole natural products like fruit, veggies, meat, and nuts.

Eat whatever whole foods you can tolerate and stop stressing over the details.

If you have special disorders or sensitivities then make the necessary adjustments.

The #1 rule is to avoid processed food as much as possible. Anything that comes in a bag, can, box, or powder is a processed food.

Do you consider things like salted cucumbers in a jar as processed food?

Technically yes, but there are degrees of quality to processed foods and you don't need to be perfect in your diet.

Nothing wrong with eating a pickle here and there.
