Savague Diet

Here are some books with interesting simplified diets;
The Mediterranean Diet
the Atkins Diet and Philosophy
the Paleo.Diet
the Primal Blueprint
Primal Body, Primal Mind
the Adam and Eve Diet
Creationist Diet
Deep Nutrition

Primal Body, Primal Mind - a new book that promotes a much more simple diet, along the lines of several other books suggested they have a more healthy diet. Some of what this book suggests is;
Avoid processed, artificial sweeteners, artificially saturated fats, trans fats, hydrogenated oils, carbohydrates, sugar, natural sugars, starch potatoes grains legumes soy, over eating, gluton, glucose, fructose
complex carbohydrates brown rice, beans
simple carbohydrates White rice, bread, cereals, pasta, potatoes

if you were to take out all of those things you start to wonder "what is there left to eat?"
Moderate protein intake less than half a pound a day, 3 ounces a meal, steak, chicken, fish
fiberous vegetables and greens, above the ground vegetables
dairy, milk
infrequent fruit
water: green drinks
We require some salt, natural Celtic sea , not refined

Try to eat nutrient dense and minimize caloric value. A down void carbohydrates and starches as much as possible
modified caloric restriction, provides the body with all the nutrients it needs without overburdening the organs and systems function. If you restrict the barley only to what you need to maintain a physical and active lifestyle, your body automatically tones down its basal metabolic rate to consider energy. Occasional cleansing detoxify.
Among some of the things suggested to take is iodine.

Most of the primal and Paleolithic diets differ in that they suggest consuming high levels of animal protein, even the famous Atkins diet does. Calcium loss is caused by diets high in animal protein, sodium, phosphorus, and caffeine, lack of weight-bearing exercise. So we see you should not overconsume animal protein, make it preferably lean. Try to avoid processed artificial, high carbohydrate, high starch, phosphorus, have minimal sodium and caffeine. And not forget to exercise, cardio and weight bearing.


By eating primarily God-given foods one could design a very healthy diet for yourself.
Edenic Diet: Raw fruits and vegetables, raw nuts and seeds, and possibly raw grains.
Antediluvian Diet: The above foods, plus: cooked fruits, vegetables, nuts, and seeds, whole grains, legumes [including soybeans and peanuts], vegetables oils (especially olive oil, [canola, walnut, almond, and flax seed oils]).
Noahic Diet: The above foods, plus: lean, trimmed, "clean" meats, skinless chicken/ turkey, "clean" fish.
Promised Land Diet: The above foods, plus: milk and milk products, and honey.

God-given foods:
Fruits, Vegetables, Nuts, Seeds, Whole grains, Legumes, Lean trimmed "clean" meats, Skinless chicken/ turkey, "Clean" fish, Vegetable, nut, and seed oils, Eggs (in very limited amounts only), Honey, Milk and milk products
Not God-given foods:
Refined grains, Refined sugars, Unclean meats, Fatty red meats, Processed meats, Chicken/ turkey with the skin, or if deep fried, [Butter], margarine, lard, Hydrogenated oils, Fried foods


The 20 The first passage is Genesis 1:29, “And God said, ‘See, I have given you every herb that yields seed which is on the face of all the earth, and every tree whose fruit yields seed; to you it shall be for food.’

The second passage is Genesis 2:16. But verse nine will also be included for background, “And out of the ground the LORD God made every tree grow that is pleasant to the sight and good for food. ... And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, ‘Of every tree of the garden you may freely eat’ (Gen 2:9, 2:16).

The last pertinent verse in these chapters is the second half of Genesis 3:18, "And you shall eat the herb of the field."

In these verses, God has given us every kind of plant food for food: fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, and legumes. So any and all of these would be included in a Creationist Diet.

It was not until after the flood that permission was given to eat meat (redmeat, poultry, fish). God told Noah and his family, "Every moving thing that lives shall be food for you. I have given you all things, even as the green herbs" Genesis 9.3 So eating flesh foods is appropriate just as eating plant foods is. As such, it cannot be said it is intrinsically wrong on ethical, spiritual, moral, or health reasons. However a case to be made for avoiding meat-based on differences between how animals are treated and how these foods are produced . It would be best to buy the from small-scale farms instead of the large-scale meet processing operations, where animals are regularly mistreated in various ways to increase the yield. There are also the environmental problems such as the large amount of waste produced by the animals, or fishing species of fish to extinction. There are also world hunger concerns. Growing grains to feed animals and then eating the animals is a much less efficient method of food production than eating the grains directly. It takes 16 pounds of plant food to produce to produce 1 pound of beef.
The biblical times meet would have been leam and not the more atty meet generally consumed today.
The Bible does give some limitations on eating meat. The first restriction is in regards to clean for us unclean animals. Generally speaking, animals listed as clean in the Bible are herbivores, lawyer most of the unclean animals are carnivores and scavengers. The next restriction concerns blood and fat. God says, "but you shall not eat flesh with its life, that is, it's blood," Genesis 9.4. So it's not okay to eat it with the blood still in it. Later in Mosaic law God combines the blood restriction with another, "this shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations in all your dwellings you shall eat neither the fat nor blood" Lev 3.17 Lev 7. 23, 24. So when eating meat today make sure the blood is either drained or completely clicked from the meat and any outer fat is trimmed from it and choose lean cuts. The skin on chicken probably would also qualify as a fat.
Verses concerning eggs, honey and milk
not to complain about unsalted food or the taste of eggs job 6:6
suggests they ate eggs and that it was a good gift Luke 11:12, 13
bring into a good land flowing with milk and honey Exodus3:8
eat only a sufficient amount of honey, don't get sick or indulge Proverbs 25:16
other sweeteners natural and unnatural or not mentioned
milk and butter of a calf Genesis 18:8 often milk references are of sheep and goats, various milk products



These are the foods that are recommended to approximate a Paleolithic Diet. There is no way that we can exactly replicate the food of the Paleolithic period, so substitutions must be made in some cases.
Meats and Eggs
Meats (including seafood) and eggs are perhaps the most important components of the Paleolithic Diet. Ideally, the animals from which the eggs and meat come from are fed a natural (to the animal) organic diet. That is, chickens have access to greens, insects, etc, as well as grain. Cattle eat grass and other pasture greenery. Fish should come from the wild, or at least be fed what wild fish eat.
In any case, meats should be free of breading of any kind.
today's meats are much higher in saturated fat so we should seek out low fat meats and then supplement with fats from other sources.
Vegetables
Vegetables are encouraged, although some versions of the diet except green beans and peas as they are legumes. Some versions simply say that if it can't be eaten raw, don't eat it (though this doesn't mean that it must be eaten raw, only that it should be able to be eaten raw). Potatoes and other starchy tubers (e.g. cassava) are not allowed.
Fruits
Fruits are generally allowed. Audette (NeanderThin) advises that people who need to lose weight should limit consumption of high sugar fruits. He allows juices in limited quantities. Cordain suggests avoiding juices altogether and limiting dried fruits.
Nuts and Seeds
Nuts and seeds are generally allowed, though Cordain suggests that those who want to lose weight limit them to four ounces per day. Note that peanuts are legumes and NOT allowed. Audette doesn't allow cashews since they can't be eaten raw. Unsweetened almond milk and coconut milk are often used as substitutes for dairy.
Oils
Though authors vary on recommended oils, basically the consensus seems to be that the oils from allowed plants are fine. Olive oil, nut oils, and flax seed oil are universally endorsed. Cordain recommends canola oil, but not coconut oil. Fish oil supplements are often recommended.
