There are three areas of practice to which you should devote your time and energy when trying to
achieve an optimum weight: eating habits, diet and exercise. Separately, each has its
own perks. When used together these lifestyle practices are most effective and provide the
foundation for healthy weight loss.
Lifestyle:
Adopt a plant-based diet that includes whole and unrefined grains with every meal.
Have 2 or 3 regular meals a day and do not skip a meal.
Try to eat at earlier times, like; breakfast at 8:00, lunch before 1:00, and be finished with
dinner by 8:00.
Do not eat before bedtime. Give your body time to digest, which is about 3 hours.
All these practices will help to keep your metabolism more active and help you to
eliminate more excess.
Diet:
Eat plenty of vegetables, both light cooked and longer cooked
Have quick steamed greens with fresh squeezed lemon, often or daily.
Make soft cooked daikon radish, either long steamed or boiled. Have a nice large
serving several times a week.
Make miso soup with daikon radish, dried shitake mushroom and leafy greens often.
Stay away from refined and processed foods.
Eat less baked foods, salty foods, and dry foods.
