I had my first Mammogram last may, then an ultrasound which showed several fibrocystic cysts. My doctor advice me that I have to get an ultrasound thrice a year just to monitor if it’s multiplying.
Of course, I got scared. I want to live longer and be healthy for my family. For early prevention, I’m taking organic living up a notch: I’m trying out this raw food diet.
I am not a foodie – we hardly eat out in restaurants. But I like to cook and prepare food- i love the whole serenity to it.
The raw food diet is a diet based on unprocessed and uncooked plant foods.According to altmedicine.about.com (http://bit.ly/qcbnL) eating food above 116 degrees F is believed to destroy enzymes in food that can assist in the digestion and absorption of food.
Typically, at least 75% of the diet must be living or raw. Let’s see if I can handle it.
carrot and tomatoes drizzled with pesto sauce and lemon juice
Lunch
banana, papaya drizzled with honey and crushed nuts
Dinner
capreze with carrots and homemade kesong puti drizzled with olive oil infused in herbs
*clause: an option is to have a 1 week monthly raw food diet for detox.
