Hi Celeste,
Welcome, it is exciting to have some more interest in this group. I eat Sprouted Spelt bread - Pure Life brand. I tried it a year ago and did not like it. I found it hard to cut. However I have revisited this brand as sprouted is more nutritious. Yes I get it from my local health food shop. I dont have a receipe.This time I began to enjoy it. I slice it up when fresh and freeze it. Then eat lightly toasted with avacado,celtic salt and organic sliced tomato. I enjoy this a couple of times a week as a quick lunch on the run. They say it has good easily digestible protein content which is what you need when fighting cancer.
Sam has been to a Gawler retreat so you might like to send her a message on one of her replies.
Which book are you reading? I havent got any of his books, is it mostly about diet?
Yes Alkaline diet what most tend to recommend. I have found some good receipes and ideas by Googling ALKALINE. energiseforlife website has couple great videos to watch.
Aim to eat 70-80 percent alkaline forming foods each day. They recommend good portion of raw vegies with each meal. I have a salad with our meal lunch and dinner.
Filtered water between meals to keep good hydration is also important. I aim for 2-3 litres daily, however I dont always succeed.
I aim to juice once daily as I find it too difficult with children and doing life. I do whatever I have,lemon rind, little spinach,celery,small amount carrot, broccoli,ginger, bok choy,apparagus...
I take a leafy green powder which consists of broccoli,barley,bean,pea,spinach between 3-6 times a day.
I have joined a organic community farm in my local area. I was invited to help in another ladies plot who had breast cancer previously. Now I enthusiastically enjoy getting out in the fresh air with company and growing nutritious organic fruit and vegies under her guidance. I also buy organic vegies from other locals at the farm for a very reasonable price.We are gradually expanding the variety of our crop and I am learning slowly how to live on seasonal food. We are currently harvesting garlic. I use a lot of garlic and am leaning how to store it by hanging them with their leaves still on in dry place.
You can google fruit and vegies highest in pesticides so you know which ones are important to get organic.
Yes you are right about no red meat/dairy/processed foods..However lamb is more recommendable if you have it occaisionally.
Fish needs to be deep sea,wild .
It is good to be under an experienced practitioner who has experience with cancer. I take minerals, super Bs ,digestion enzmes,protein powder which is pea based.
If on chemo you have to check what you can take.
I use coconut oil,celtic salt,good aust olive oil,almonds,flaxseed oil,lemons, garlic,ginger also in my diet. I use a variety of legumes but highly recommend chia seeds and quinoa .Quinoa is a seed and whole protein. It is great substitute to rice.
I also get all my other organic produce from a local co-op shop. They are a non profit shop. You take your own containers.
I am slowly converting over fully to chemical free cleaning products to reduce the toxins.
This is a very gradual process to get the hang of things so dont be too hard on yourself.
I hope this is of some help.
Feel free to reply.
Kind Regards
Anne Maree
