Encephalon Posted September 9, 2009 (edited) My latest ongoing diet discovery. I took a cue from Mike Mahler, big time martial artist/kettlebell aficionado in Santa Monica CA, and decided to eat an orange, by itself, as the first meal of the morning. It has an alkalizing effect on your bloodstream, which creates a ph that is less likely to invite viral and microbial attack. The food combining chart also recommends eating citrus by itself because it digests so quickly and if you eat other, slower digesting food items, you set the fruit sugar up for fermentation, and all hell breaks loose (for some), and you end up blaming fruit for your distress. I have also been wrestling with whether to share this recipe or not; it seems I could market it and make $$ but I'm too lazy and generally regard the whole field of marketing as a subject thought up by demons on crack. So here goes. Massive fiber, protein, complex carbs, EFAs = Balls Out nutritional Bliss. Oh yeah, and NO gluten! 1/2 cup buckwheat groats 1/2 cup quinoa 1/2 cup millet 1/4 cup flax seed Pour into 3 cups boiling water, reduce heat, cook for 20 minutes. Serve as breakfast cereal or toss cold with greens or as pilaf. I add stevia, coconut oil, organic cocoa powder and walnuts and it's like eating German Chocolate Cake for breakfast. This will change your life and you will all nominate me for food Avatar-of-the-day. Edited September 9, 2009 by Blasto Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks so much for sharing, I've been looking for a recipe to help significantly change my breakfast habits after my next fast. Edit - I'm copying the recipe...what shall I title it? Blasto's, or Blasto Bits, or Blasto's Colon Blow??? Edited September 9, 2009 by Pax Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baguakid Posted September 9, 2009 I agree with PH balancing.. I, however, have had good results with Dr. Robert Young's approach: Robert Young, Acid/Alkaline The pH Miracle: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4s6cTQtK_E http://www.amazon.com/pH-Miracle-Balance-R...h/dp/044669049X He recommends staying away from Sweet PH balancing foods such as oranges.
