EATRITE - 5f - The Prudent Diet and The Natural Way

Prudent Diet (eg. Weight Watchers):

A prudent diet consisted of choosing about 45% from fruit and vegetables and unrefined grains.
Choose about 35% from meat, fish, chicken and dairy products.
Finally choose a little making up about 20% from oils, fats and sweets.

Natural Way (Mary Ann Shearer at www.mary-anns.com):

The Natural Way of eating has at its base eating about 60% fruits and vegetables.
Choose about 30% whole grains, fish, chicken, egg, cheese and red meat.
Finally choose about 10% good oils, fats, nuts and seeds.
Choose 75% of your diet from foods that leave an alkali residue in your blood:
fruits, vegetables, almonds, millet, potatoes. Choose raw food over cooked food.
Choose food close to its original state. For example choose a baked potato over chips or bread.

EATRITE gives you these two choices: either a Prudent Diet or the Natural Way.
