The whole foods diet that my husband and I outline in our books (including our Gold Coast Cure and Whole Foods Diet Cookbook) is a balanced, nutrient-rich and anti-inflammatory diet based on natural and unrefined real foods including:

•Unrefined carbohydrates in their most natural and unprocessed form including antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables, potatoes, corn, beans, whole grains (including whole grain and sprouted breads and pasta)
•Healthful clean proteins low in saturated fat including fish, free-range organic eggs (especially omega-3 rich eggs), grass-fed and organic dairy, lean cuts of grass-fed meat, etc.
•Anti-inflammatory fats including flaxseed oil, extra virgin olive oil, raw nuts and seeds, all-natural nut butters, etc.

The only natural food that we tell people to limit their intake of is saturated fat (found in butter, beef, and full-fat dairy). All-natural foods containing saturated fat also contain nutrients, so we dont want people to eliminate these foods, but rather use them in moderation.

  • Thanks that was very informative! I wished we were taught earlier on in life how to cook and eat. Ive known how to cook all my life but never knew how to cook in a healthy way. Im having to learn that now at 42 after years of abusing my body. Ive learned a lot over the last couple or years. Thanks for this video!

  • @MichaelLockardTV yes all the soy available to Americans IS bad for you because of how they grow it. Don't eat it. For women it can cause cancer, specifically breast cancer, it will make the women make too much estrogen. I learned about it in my nutrition class.

  • Tofu us awful for you... soy in general is cancer causing in high amounts.

  • mmm baby i want to lick you all over

  • damn i want to suck those titties.

  • There's nothing clean about tofu, it's an overprocessed food filler.

  • Tofu???? Tofu is horrible for you.

  • great video!
