The
Goddess Diet:
Proven
Ways to Naturally Stay Slim, Ageless and Healthy
Theory:
Just how does a Goddess diet?
The answer is . . . she doesn’t . . . as
a goddess understands how to prevent accelerated metabolic aging by
choosing foods that nourish her natural ability to remain fit and strong.
Weight Loss and Nutrition Principles:
Consume a diet averaging:
- 40%
protein to encourage proper estrogen metabolism
- 25%
(15% monosaturated fats and 10% saturated)
- 35%
low glycemic carbohydrates
- Eat
5 mini meals a day beginning with breakfast
- Exercise
30 minutes a day
- Eat
1 serving of soy a day
- Begin
every meal with a mini protein starter
- Use
non-iodinated sea salt
- Enjoy
5 ounces of nuts a week

alcoholic beverages

4 eight ounce glasses of water a day, preferably mineral water
- Reduce
caffeine
- Eat
low fat but not non-fat dairy products
- Use
1 tablespoon of unsalted butter daily
- Never
consume fruit and proteins together without fat
- If
you eat a high glycemic carbohydrate, don’t add fat
Think of your plate as clock. Fill
the portion between 12 and 5 o’clock with protein, the section between 8
and 12 o’clock with low glycemic carbohydrates and the little space left
in between nicely holds a mini bowl of fat
Avoid eating these high glycemic carbohydrates until you have achieved a
normal BMI.

carrots, cereals, corn, couscous, cranberry sauce, dates, figs,
mango, muffins, noodles, oat bran, papaya, parsnips, sweet pickles,
