Crazy Sexy Diet

Hungry for info that will give you more clean organic energy, slow down the aging process, improve your immune system, improve digestion to help eliminate bloating, constipation, etc...etc.  This info and so much more can be found in the book Crazy Sexy Diet written by Kris Carr.  This is truly not a "diet" because you can't live your life on a diet.  This is about eating a low-fat, low-glycemic, vegetarian style program that emphasizes balancing the PH of the body with delicious whole foods, nourishing organic green drinks and smoothies.  This book is witty, fun, down-to-earth, easy to understand and written by a women who has slowed down her cancer by eating whole foods, practicing yoga/meditation and changing her lifestyle for a healthier mind and body.
A few highlights from the book worth mentioning, but maybe not new to some people who already follow a plant-based/whole foods type diet:

• Ingesting bad foods and toxins creates congestion in the digestion--and that's just the beginning of your problems.
• A daily onslaught of bad eating habits creates excess mucus and problems like constipation.
• Eating a plant-based diet, with an emphasis on raw foods, assists our bodies in maintaining an alkaline environment.  The more oxygen we get in our food, the more health we experience.  Excessively acidic food creates an unhealthy cellular environment, which increases the chance of mutations.
• Get the sugar out, too much (and not even that much) of this habit-forming substance wreaks havoc on your blood sugar levels, mood and weight.  That goes for the artificial stuff too.
• Not all carbs are bad, your body needs good carbs (your main source of fuel).  Simple carbs like white bread, pasta, pastries are basically sugar in disguise.

So if you are looking to become healthier, maybe not going all vegetarian, but want some great tips and recipes, use this book as a guide, as healthy foods will end up being your prescription in a bottle!
