Diet #1
Fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes—foods high in complex carbohydrates, fiber, vitamins, and minerals, low in fat, and free of cholesterol—should make up the bulk of the calories you consume. The rest should come from low-fat dairy products, lean meat and poultry, and fish.

Hi Steve. Thanks for the healthy eating advice. You've reminded me to eat more legumes. Three questions: 1. why are you telling us this? 2. do you take your own advice? 3. why are you telling us this?
Maybe that's only two questions. I'm not sure. I'd probably know if I ate more fish.

Hi David,
Huh. Context is important. Who'd've thought it?
Basically, my plan this year is to stop eating crap. But I need information about what is not crap. So I store it here.
The information. Not the crap. I store that somewhere else.
Hix Bro,
I've always been of the opinion that health and fitness need to be approached in parallel. You can't go wrong with lots of fruit and vegies and good meat (ie less cage reared chicked, more lamb - and stop buying the crap from the supermarket, go to your butcher). People are also promoting the benefits of Tumeric (ie more curries).
But there is only limited value in eating better if you don't also exercise.
Its akin to puting the best fuel and oil into an engine you don't service.
If you have the chance, try growing your own vegies, its rewarding, good fun and you actually know what chemicals you've put into the soil.
Just a couple of thoughts!
Cheers,

Try and eat 30 grams of fiber/day. This is harder than it sounds.
Try and eat at least five servings of vegetables a day (this helps with the fiber).
Try and eat fish at least 3 times a week.
