  2. Making the HawaiiDiet™ Work For You Webhealthforyou.com

  3. Practical Principles of the HawaiiDiet The HawaiiDiet™ can work for you on many levels. Remember, if you have any health problems or are on any medications, check with your doctor before changing your diet. He or she will want to monitor how any changes may affect you if you are on medication or are otherwise in poor health. Webhealthforyou.com

  4. After you've done that, or if you don't need to, take a moment to carefully contemplate the following suggestions. Even though these aren't all strictly dietary principles, if you integrate them into your program it will work better, and you'll enjoy it more. You'll also be far more likely to make the HawaiiDiet™ a permanent part of your lifestyle, so you can enjoy the results of weight loss and improved health all the rest of your days.

  5. Again, if you have any health problems, check with your doctor to make sure that it's okay to follow this diet. If you are taking any medication, it is especially important that you check with your doctor to see if you need to be monitored for medication adjustments. Webhealthforyou.com

  6. Next, understand the basic principles of the Hawaii- Diet™ including the cultural principles such as lokahi as described in this book. Understand that everything is connected and that our food affects our health, our work performance, our emotions, and even our spiritual development. • Eat the way our ancestors ate. Enjoy the multicultural cuisine of the HawaiiDiet™, using the Hawaii- Diet™ Pyramid as your guide. Webhealthforyou.com

  7. Eat foods in their whole form as much as possible.Use the Shintani Mass Index of Food (also known as SMI) as a way to assist in the selection of these foods. • Keep your cholesterol intake to zero or very low. The HawaiiDiet™ encourages a plant-based diet and if you must use flesh foods, it should be no more than an average of one ounce per day. Webhealthforyou.com

  8. Keep the fat content very low (around 10% of calories), unless there is some evidence that you can handle a higher fat diet. Remember that the fat should come from whole plant-based sources, if possible. • Eat foods in harmony with the seasons, your locality, and your climate. If possible eat fresh, whole, plant-based foods grown organically. Webhealthforyou.com

  9. Eat in a relaxed manner, preferably with others. Take time to chew and enjoy your food — do so with gratitude. • Exercise at least 30 to 40 minutes daily, or at least every other day. • . Remember that optimal health involves all aspects of your being. This includes spiritual, mental, emotional, and physical aspects. It includes your thoughts and actions, and your relationship with the land through the food you eat. It includes your relationship with others and your relationship with the Almighty. When all this is in harmony, stress is reduced and health is maximized. Webhealthforyou.com

  10. There are a number of simple things you can do to reduce stress and contribute to your overall health. • For example: • Say a prayer daily; • Meditate daily; • Laugh daily; • Sing a happy song every day; • Do something for someone else, with no expectation of reward. Webhealthforyou.com

  11. . Always remember where the healing comes from. It comes from the Almighty. Therefore, say a grace before each meal. Start each meal by asking the Lord to bless the food and be grateful for the life- giving qualities which he has put into the food that you eat. • In addition to saying grace, pray and meditate each day to enhance your connection to the Source. Webhealthforyou.com

  12. What To Expect When You Begin the HawaiiDiet™ The HawaiiDiet™ is not a diet at all. There is no calorie counting or any portion size control on the diet. It is an "all you can eat" diet. This doesn't mean that you should stuff yourself unnaturally on this diet. However, it does mean that you can eat to your satisfaction and even more than you were eating before, and the weight comes off naturally. Webhealthforyou.com

  13. You may experience a little sensation of bloating in the beginning because in general the foods are bulkier than what most Americans are accustomed to eating. This should add to a pleasant feeling of satisfaction throughout the diet, even while you are losing the pounds. It is actually a whole person health program, based on the principles and practices of traditional cultures that have remained largely free of the chronic, nutrition-related diseases that plague us today. Webhealthforyou.com

  14. You will probably be exposed to a wider variety of foods on this diet than you have previously enjoyed. This is because the HawaiiDiet™ embraces foods from all cultures that fit the HawaiiDiet™ model. The potential variety is limitless. Webhealthforyou.com
