Unless you have serious health or allergy issues, you don't need to worry about what happens on a molecular level. You just need to include a variety of different coloured vegetables every day. Keep grains to a minimum, while introducing some beans or legumes as the most useful carbs. Cut back or eliminate animal products and try using soy-based products as a substitute in recipes.

There is very little scientific evidence suggesting health benefits of one type of wheat bread over another. If you don't have any food allergies, simply choose multigrain or wholemeal over white breads, and preferably stone ground. If you have weight concerns, heavy breads fill you up faster. Read the package label and choose one with the lowest sodium count. No need to buy expensive brands, so don't get caught up in misleading advertising. Enjoy!

NO, NOT refried! Try to avoid anything fried... unless you want cardiovascular disease with hardened arteries that leads to coronary artery disease, angina, heart attacks, stroke, diabetes, obesity, hypertension, etc... Starting out, choose tinned salad beans, rinse with water to remove salty packing fluid, and add to salads or rice or soup or stews, etc. They're already cooked, so eat cold or hot. Add chili or finely chopped salad onions for zing. Later, you might try cooking dried beans.

I run 35-80 minutes a day..many times at a mountain preserve here in phoenix (lots of rugged up and down anaerobic work) also I practice music everyday ussually focusing on clarinet,singing,guitar..1 or all or a mix of those for a couple hours a day which is very physical..plus I do 30 to 90 minutes of yoga also..and try to get mini workouts on a mini-trampoline..so I am very physical and I already have a hearty appetite..I like to keep my strength up but not gain mass..

if you are vegetarian, you need to include rice or bread with the beans to make 'complete proteins'.

a 'processed food' has undergone a manufacturing or refining 'process' which changes foods from their natural state. Anything canned, packaged or frozen has been processed. Your shake is high calorie energy dense, especially almonds and bananas. Reduce to 1 banana per day and try using low fat soy milk. Why are you using almond milk? are you body building?

I put almond Milk,2 bananas, some grapes and blueberries into a blender and make a shake...would that be considered processed?...is this too much sugar?
