Vegetables Nutrition: the guide

Hello everyone!

on this page of vegetables nutrition we will touch all the subjects our website is about, but do it less deeply and more with direct nutritional facts and  instructions. the reason we are doing that is that we can look for the information we found interesting in this health blog in a more efficient way, using the information here as a reminder of what we have read in the full post, or as a navigator to the posts we are interested in. in other words, the idea is that instead of going back through the entire post list of our prior posts, we can find the one-phrase summaries of the info we are after in one page.

the absolute most important guideline we need to remember is listen to our body. our body knows what it likes, what does it good and what harms it. learn to listen to it.

another super important reminder here is that health is an achievable state of being, no matter what the medicine companies are trying to sell us… this is exactly where a healthy balanced vegetables nutrition based diet comes into play, to give us the right type of strength and stamina – the one achieved by giving our body  the real fuel it is built to harness for giving us best results (instead of the usual artificial factory-made stuff we were taught to call “food”!).

Vegetables nutrition – the essentials:

so, here goes our basic guidelines for healthy eating:

corny, yet true, we do need our daily dose of fruits and vegetables, eaten in the right time and combination.
Fibers, and fiber rich vegetables can make all the difference when it comes to constipation and bad digestion.
Eat dark greens daily.
We should combine our food the right way – try and avoid mixing carbohydrates with proteins.
While eating food that is high in protein do not mix it with a different type of protein rich food.
Try and avoid mixing vegetables and fruit in the same meal.
Eat both cooked and fresh vegetables, but do learn a bit about what you are about to cook, as different vegetables react different to cooking, and might need different conditions to turn healthy or keep their nutritional values at all.
Eat sprouts. do it slowly and surely, listening to our stomach as we go, and feeling what our body is telling us.

Anemia – we need to input iron to the system, but we also must make sure it is absorb, and that we do not eat anything that will make it deficient and prohibit it’s absorption.

Losing weight – the basics no one bothers to tell us, because it is much easier to sell us “30 days lose 50Kg” diets – here is the scoop: eat less calories then you spend. For example – eat 3000 calories, spend 2500 calories – this diet will make us lose weight. (as long as it’s balanced!).
