Aetherous Posted January 12, 2012 I really like Maya Tiwari's book, even though it's only for a vegetarian diet. Trust your intuition in each moment...that's the best diet plan there is, in my view. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

raimonio Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) I suggest you start by reading a book called China Study, it basically tells you just why you should take on a vegetarian approach and has very solid data to back it up. My personal opinion is that you should not be satisfied with just any vegetarian food but instead try to keep it as raw and fresh as possible. So my personal advice is go for a raw vegetarian diet and you're body will blossom Dont have any books for raw foodism tho. After many years of testing with my own body I have come to be a fruit-based vegetarian. I get my energy from fruits and on top of that I eat a range of all kinds of vegetables etc. All of my food is raw and fresh. This diet suits me the best in terms of how good I feel and how much I have energy. Sometimes I also eat steamed vegetables. I'm not sure whether this kind of diet is for everyone but it suits me best My basic day: Start with 5 bananas in the morning A salad with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumber and seaweed, after that some bananas and a pineapple The same salad as above but without the seaweed and with mashed root vegetables coupled with himalayan salt Oranges, apples, bananas etc in the evening Edited January 13, 2012 by raimonio Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
