We know that very little has changed with our genome in a few thousand years, but our diet is completely different. By returning our nutrition to those standards; whole foods, grass fed meat, nothing refined, low sugar, natural fats, good sleep, low stress, we stand the best chance of having good health and long life.

But what really helps me is getting to a low fat diet. Then the sugars go into the blood and then out of the blood rather than getting stuck in the bloodstream (due to the coating of fat on the artery walls).

I have struggled with health problems my whole life and have always strayed toward a vegetarian diet (though I grew up in a meateating family). My question is this: not only have I struggled with candida my whole life (now 25 yrs old), but I have terrible acid reflux and irritable bowel syndrome. I was always told to stay away from fruits (not only for the candida) but for the acid that would really affect the IBS and acid reflux. Are there certain fruits that are better than others? Any thoughts? Thanks! Hi. I have struggled with health problems my whole life and have always strayed toward a vegetarian diet (though I grew up in a meateating family).

Thanks for writing this Roger! I've always heard about candida and the 80 10 10 diet, but you gave me great basics with this article. Now I can weed out all that other false information. :) Wow!

I also eat a lot of goji and spirulina as protein sources, but hemp seeds are one of the few complete plant proteins - high in omega 3 too! 6 tbsp of hemp seeds with a little almond milk contains 22 grams of fabulous plant protein - you're covered for the whole day!

The diagram on Nutridiary.com that sais it is 10% shows Calorie Distrubution. 10% of the calories in apricots comes from protein, but if you look to the left of the diagram it clearly sais that there are 1,4 g protein in 100 grams of apricot. That makes a total of 1,4 % protein. The same goes for all the things listed. Hi, i just want to point out for everyone that apriccots have 1,4% protein, not 10%.

I wish to add a few mentions. If you have superior cholesterol, then you may wonder, will a low fat diet lower cholesterol? This is a critical question, because it is a easily known fact that the most capable way to lower cholesterol is straightforward diet. Certainly one factor of a diet for lowering cholesterol will include follows low in fat. Merely this is simply part of the history. It is critical to project that it is the concentrated fats that you want to decimate it from the foods you feed. Hello, nice and enlightening article. I wish to add a few mentions.
