Philosophy Behind the Plan • We crave what we are most intolerant to. • Intolerant foods cause gut inflammation which leak out into the rest of the body • Cause an auto-immune response • Food intolerance is not fixed and is correctable • IgG reaction (slower, food-sensitivity)
Foods to Avoid • Gluten—30-40% intolerant, maybe as much as 70% • Lectins-binds to insulin receptors • Phytates-makes minerals bio-unavailable • Dairy—promotes insulin resistance, acne, and bone depletion • The more processed the worse it is, antibiotics, hormones • Soy—new to the human diet • Disrupts hormones as a phyto-estrogen • Impairs thyroid function • Genetically modified • Overly processed • Asian food as a condiment and fermented
Corn—pro-inflammatory/high-glycemic/not a vegetable • One of the most genetically modified • Host to 22 different fungi • High in lectins • Symptoms: hives, rashes, migraines, joint pain, mood disorders, temporary depression, insomnia, eczema, fatigue, hyperactivity in children, night sweats, dark circles around the eyes, repeated ear infections, UTI, sinus • Corn starch, corn syrup, high fructose corn syrup, corn oil
Eggs • White part is the allergen • Might be more of what they are fed • Peanuts-legume • Aflatoxin (mold)—toxic. • Peanut oil-atherogenic (arterial plaque) • High in phytic acid and lectins • Sugar-140lb/year • Insulin metabolism disruptor • Increase yeast production • Feeds bacteria • Dampens immune function • Artificial sugar worse than natural
Gluten Alternatives • Gluten free flours • All-purpose (ArrowMills/Trader Joe’s) • Mungbean • Almond meal/flour • Garbanzo bean flour • Brown Rice flour
Dairy Alternatives • Milk • Coconut, Almond, Rice, Hemp • Daiya • Non Dairy cheese • Ghee • Clarified Butter • Coconut Oil
Sugar Alternatives • Stevia • Maple Syrup • Dark Chocolate (70% or higher) • Agave • All must be used in small amounts and not at all first three weeks
How to Begin • Week One—7lbs in 7 days • 2 meals/day with Virgin shake • Snack should be small handful of raw nuts and/or fruit • Third meal should be ¼ lean meat, ¼ healthy fats, 1/8 high fiber, low-glycemiccarbs, rest nonstarchy vegetables • Meats should be wild, organic, free-range and grass fed • Will crave what intolerant to most • Recommend sweet squashes and sweet potatoes (especially chips) to survive sugar loss
Water • 10% of your body weight. • Keep it with you at all times • Less from a bottle • Best to not drink when eating and drink 1 hour before you eat. • Adding flavoring with the exception of real fruit makes it no longer water.
Week Two & Three • One shake for breakfast • Snack if needed • Nuts • Lunch • Salad is great • Protein from night before • Pumpkin seed/sunflower seed • Balsamic vinegrette • Snack if needed • Apple (sunflower seed butter) • Trader Joe’s • Same dinner as week 1
