The World's Healthiest Foods



Recommended Posts

I found a really cool web site. They rank foods by how nutrient dense they are per calorie and then put them on a list in order of "healthiness" (is that a word?)

I see a lot of posts that ask what to eat, what is healthy, etc. I found the information really helpful plus there are recipes!

Here is how it describes itself:

The George Mateljan Foundation, a not-for-profit foundation with no commercial interests, is a new force for change to help make a healthier you and a healthier world.

I have found some interesting things on there, the first being quinoa. I cooked it last night and it is wonderful! Like a cross between rice and oatmeal. The next thing I am going to try is flaxseed, there are studies that show flaxseed helps with inflammation and I have feet problems so we will see if that helps.

Here is the site. The World's Healthiest Foods

Yep !

Since going Vege a while back I use Quinoa too, well I did when I could eat it! you can get the puffs, flakes and seeds, awesome stuff!

I'll have to look if it lists Hemp Meal - its the highest plant Protein and really works well with soy flour in high Protein baking :biggrin:

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
