i am looking for a two day menu that i could eat on the food combining diet i basically just want to know what i could eat in a couple of days so i have a rough idea what to eat i am not fussy what to make as i am not a fussy eater i just would like to know what is the simplest to cook as i am not a fussy cook even a chinese meal or any carryout meal|||Hi!
My source says that a Vegan women needs to get 28g of protein from grain, 16g of protein from legumes, and 2 grams of protein from the leafy greens to balance, and make a complete protein that the body can use - and you don't have to eat them together, just get them into you over the course of the day!
Day 1 %26amp; 2 : are pretty much the same, but you can vary what kind of veggies , types of bread , and fruits you eat.
Protein from Grains: 28g women,/33g men ; to get this in one day from grains, you could eat:
1cup of oatmeal - 5 g
1 cup of brown rice -5 g
1/2 cup of cracked wheat - 3 (the grain in Taboulleh)
2 slices normal ww bread - 5 g (ww pita maybe)
2 slices of a fortified bread - 11g
(nuts and seeds fall under the grain category, so you could substitute those in. 10 almonds gives you 1.9 g of protein, and 1 T of Peanut Butter gives you 4.4 g. ) just remember get it to add up to 28 g of pro from this group.
Protein from Legumes: female needs 16g
Each day: Drink 2 cups of fortified soy milk/beverage with at least 7 g of protein per cup. AND make sure that it gives you 50% of the RDA of vitamin B12 per cup.**very important **(take a supplement too to be on the safe side if Vegan);
plus 1/3 of a cup of beans to add about 5 g of protein or drink more soy!
Protein from Vegetables: 4 or more servings of fresh stuff, but make 2 of them large servings of dark leafy greens to get your calcium and riboflavin , (kale, romaine, leaf lettuce for example), and you'll have at least 3 g of protein. (spinach is low in riboflavin).
Of course throw in 1 to 4 servings a day of fruit, and eat a raw source of Vit. C. Maybe your soy beverage will be fortified in Vit C too.
Keep healthy and Good luck!|||Never heard of a food combining diet|||That depends... are you a fussy eater or a fussy cook? It may be hard if you are fussy because a fussy cook cooking for a fussy eater could be well... rather fussy.
Whats the food combining diet?
