Nutrition & Diet - Food as medicine                      

"We are what we eat."

"The food that is eaten is divided threefold.  The gross part becomes excrement.  The middle part becomes flesh.  The subtle part becomes the mind.

The water that is drunk is divided threefold.  The gross part becomes urine.  The middle part becomes blood.  The subtle part becomes the life-force."  Chandogya Upanishad VI.4. 1 & 2, Circa 1500 B.C., India

Be mindful of what you eat and when you eat, eat mindfully!  

A low-fat, low-salt, high fiber, predominantly vegetarian diet with low glycemic index and rich in antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and omega-3 fatty acids is a healthful diet that can be nourishing, calming and curative.
