Just when I wanted to give up finally writing about a really, and I mean REALLY healthy diet, I found Dr. Fuhrman's Nutritarian Diet which in fact my husband and I have been living on for all our lives!
Remember: There are people in this world who are doing fine on a vegan or vegetarian diet, but most of them are totally undernourished after a few years living this vegan or vegetarian lifestyle incorrectly and then they become sick. Some of them very sick, but you don't hear about them very often.
Then there are people who need and want meat. But again, they are eating too much of it and that doesn't do anything for their health, hence they fall ill as well.
What my husband and I have always said and lived is a diet, ANY diet really where you find the maximum of nutrition from organically grown food. And I mean organically grown. Not what they try and sell you these days as "organic" which is a farce. You either need to grow your own food to maximum nutritional content or KNOW somebody who does and is willing to sell some of the produce to you.
I also plead with you to STOP this irrational harassing of people who don't follow the same diet as you do. Everybody is different and everybody needs nutrition. United we win!
The last thing you need to eat (remember: WE ARE WHAT WE EAT) is junk food which is devoid of vitamins and most minerals and certainly totally devoid of macro nutrients.
I would also like to plead for the overweight, obese and morbidly obese people in our society. They are not weak and should not be accused of having no willpower. Their body is telling them CORRECTLY to EAT MORE and MORE and MORE to hopefully get enough nutrients. But of course, the overweight person has maybe no idea of how to obtain these nutrients and just keeps on eating whatever.
A school system that doesn't teach young people the basics of a good nutritional diet is EVIL.
Now, take heart and educate yourself with Dr. Fuhrman's website. He is a board certified doctor, a family physician who walks his talk.
There is good advice on his website, he grows his own vegetables and fruits and also eats very small quantities of meat. He has a small shop on his websites and lots of recipes for members and non-members. And all the crucial information he teaches is FREE.

So take advantage of it and remember that my husband and I are now 65 and 63 years old and we are healthy, fit and happy, we don't take any tablets or pills and were never seriously ill ever. You can start with this nutritarian diet at any stage of your life, even if you are very ill, in fact, then starting on this diet is a must. And if you need help to get started, you can participate in his wellness clinic and read his books. You will be glad you did!
Love to all!
