Once my taste buds adjusted, the stuff with syrupy sugars and overprocessed food and foods which serve no nutritional function don't even taste good any more. My caloric intake is way down because the foods are so efficient.
I originally did this as part of detoxing to boost my immune system. FWIW, five years ago it was very difficult to find foods that meet these criteria. Today, if one knows what to consume, it's gotten much easier to choose foods that meet these criteria, both in groceries and from restaurants.
It's inconceivable that the detoxed, pure foods diet doesn't help ones body fight disease.
A lot of stuff out there about the whole grain breads being very bad for you. I don’t know.
I make my own bread using potatoes like they did 100 years ago, or you can get potato bread. I try to avoid the wheat and whole grains. Pumpernickel, jewish rye. My favorite is the potato breads.
I just had two strips of bacon this morning... lol
