List of Healthy Eating Foods Posted: 07-16-07 06:10am
In terms of maintaining/building muscle
mass and burning fat I can give you a list
of 12 healthy eating foods:
01. Almonds and other nuts
02. Beans and legumes (especially lentils,
kidney, chickpeas, soy and black)
03. Spinach and other green leafy
vegetables
04. Dairy (low or no-fat, and not loaded
with sugar such as ice cream)
05. Instant oatmeal (unsweetened)
06. Eggs
07. Turkey and lean meat
08. Natural (unsweetened) peanutbutter
09. Olive oil
10. Whole grain bread/pasta
11. Whey protein (from ricotta cheese or
from whey powder)
12. Raspberries
All these foods have a low glycemic index,
and also have "good fat", omega 3's, are
high in fiber and/or are rich in quality
protein. They offer the most nutrition
that your body can utilize efficiently
without excess fat, sugar and artificial
crap that your body doesn't need.

Thanks!
I personally love whey in a smoothie. I
add bananas, almonds, and milk...yummy!
Now
that's Yummy!
I would experiment a bit with the milk -
adding fresh squeezed orange juice.

A lot of what you listed our very healthy
choices, however, I would buy many of them
only organic.
Some of what you listed makes the ewg dirty dozen list of
when you should buy organic.
Also, instant oatmeal is not low glycemic
and not a good food choice. Real slow
cooked oatmeal on the other hand is a very
good choice. Sweeten with agave add some
walnuts, yum.
