Free Low Calorie Recipes - Should You Be Looking For Them?
If you're looking for free low calorie recipes, there are plenty of them available. A simple Google search will find hundreds of them for you.
But beware before you eat all of that low calorie food!
Many people mistakenly think that following a low calorie diet will be the answer to all of their weight loss prayers.
And while people who follow low calorie diets are still being a lot healthier than those who subscribe to all of the latest fad diets...
They're still making a grave mistake.
See... following a low calorie diet and looking for free low calorie recipes will certainly help you lose weight in the short term. There's absolutely no doubt about that.
The problem, however, comes in the long run.
See, when the body takes in too few calories, it eventually goes into what is called "starvation mode". Starvation mode is a very dangerous place to be. Besides the body not allowing you to lose any more weight, your metabolism slows down (due to the loss of muscle).
People who stay on low calorie diets too long also generally feel neglected, and therefore cranky. Most dieters end up giving up shortly after they begin diets because they can't fit their diets into their lifestyle for long-term.
One alternative to this is to use calorie cycling. Calorie cycling still accounts for healthy eating, but the dieter switches up calories so that there is no adjustment to any kind of severely low calorie routine. Because of this, the body can't go into starvation mode, and it remains healthy.
This method of eating has been used for years by bodybuilders and has recently been given a spin for "normal" dieters.

Raw Food And Health: The Raw Food Classic By The Founder Of The Raw Food Movement
Raw Food And Health: The Raw Food Classic By The Founder Of The Raw Food Movement Review
Not only ahead of its time when written, it is still ahead of its time, both in science, and in food medicine.
It is the most complete, fully documented book on raw food and health, right down to teeth, having raw children, meals, menus, plants, reasons why foods work, reasons why some do not, and much, much more.
Use it as a complete text or resource book, or, you can read it right thru as I did.
This book is a corner stone to raw food and health. A book that most people in the medical profession would rather disappear.
If every family in America has a copy of it, the medical profession would disappear!
Raw Food And Health: The Raw Food Classic By The Founder Of The Raw Food Movement Overview
"Longevity should be the rule and not the exception." Dr. Estes is the father of Raw Foods, Disease Prevention and Life Extension. His massive work belongs in the home of EVERY raw foodist, EVERY health-conscious person, and everyone looking for the anti-aging formula. One of his favorite slogans is 'How to live 150 years' and he illustrates exactly how. He described himself as the cripple who rebuild himself, and practiced what he preached. He and his wife, (who collaborated with him on this great work) had 8 raw children. But beware- this book does not pull any punches, it lays health on the line and makes no apology for being straight forward and 'telling it like it is'. If you could have only ONE book for your RAW library, this is it.

Sweet Potatoes Cooking School Presents Wicked Good Food
Sweet Potatoes Cooking School Presents Wicked Good Food Review
I bought this cookbook almost a year ago, and have made a number of recipes in the book. Each one is simple to make (I don't consider myself a chef by any means), yet produce excellent results. The last dish I made was the Vail chili, which drew rave reviews from everyone who enjoyed it. The author's approach to cooking makes even daunting recipes like chocolate mousse easy to make, by providing simple step by step directions. I love the helpful hints throughout the book, and the stories make it interesting reading while making the dishes.
I have given Wicked Good Food as a gift to a number of friends and family, and they all have the same reaction. They love the recipes in the book, and the style of the author. Excellent cook book!
