Anybody else here doing this? I just started yesterday. My diet thus far consists of peanuts and various fruit slices from a supermarket. So that's what I'm doing. Kind of interesting thus far.
What do you people eat and where do you purchase it?
I'd say that 90% of the food I purchase (other than restaurant food) is from either Ralphs, Pavillions or Gelsons. 5% is from Whole Foods and 5% is from Russian deli or Trader Joes.
It really just comes down to make smart choices in the food you eat. Sadly, too many people are just not educated enough on how to make those smart decisions.
I for one, feel some cooking of some food is actually beneficial in releasing nutrients -- so I've read/heard. And there is some raw veggies that can actually be detrimental like raw broccoli to us with thyroid probs.
Raw isn't always better for all.
I am big on clean foods - some eaten raw *some fruits and vegetables. Grass fed/grass finished meats. Raw dairy from a responsible farmer. Healing teas. Variety of grains - NO WHEAT.
Basically nothing that is altered, modified genetically, sprayed with multiple poisons, loaded with synthetic dyes, enriched with synthetic nutrients and so on.
NO CORN. In syrup, high low or otherwise. That's how cows get so HUGE!! (along with those anti-biotics we are now resisting...)

Do you know what all the ingredients are in everything you buy?

I wouldnt say I know "ALL" the ingredients in what I buy, but like Luckyd609 says, I try to buy fresh foods wherever possible and I read the ingredient list on most things. At this point, I kinda know what to get so I just buy what I already have been buying for years.
Like I always say, its about learning about nutrition and using/applying that knowledge when shopping for food for your nutritional intake program.
