NOurish your body with whole foods and to diet means to be careful to maintain a high nutritional content of the diet.

Answer by Connie b. Dellobuono:

  1. Avoid sugar and coffee and over ripe fruits. Eat citrus fruits and add probiotics/pickled greens and digestive enzymes (pineapple/papaya).
  2. Eat whole foods before 7pm and after 10am. Eat meat during the day and no meat at night, eggs are easier to digest (30 min vs 4 hrs for meat).
  3. Sleep well.
  4. Use standing desk at work.
  5. Prepare food during Sunday to take to work, salads and soups.
  6. Add spices and try to smell cooked foods but only taste them (1–2 spoonful).
