raw vegan food pyramid of health

I have been studying raw vegan for quite some time. There is a pyramid that can be followed to make it easier to remember .  It is different than the traditional American standard diet.

1.     Is the foundation of leafy green’s to choose from. The ones that are wild edible is the best choice. My favorite way to incorporate the most greens is making smoothies. I like to switch my leafy greens up by using kale, collard greens, dandelion greens, spinach, wheatgrass and spring mix. They have different fruits and components that do different things for your body.

2.     fruits and vegetables is second. The best thing Is making sure to use all the colors of the rainbow. It’s important to make sure that the fruit is blended well if you decide to make a smoothie. It’s better to blend your fruit with your greens inside of juice because too much juice equals more sugar. https://www.fruitsandveggiesmorematters.org/top-10-reasons-to-eat-more-fruits-and-vegetables

3.     The third is  sprouts and legumes. I sprout seeds by powering water over it and let it soak for 24 hours and the dump the water out and lay it on it’s side and allow it to breathe and grow. I rinse the sprouts every 8 hours to make sure it stays clean. They usually sprout within 3 days. There is all types of sprouts. https://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles/archive/2015/02/09/sprouts-nutrition.aspx
