New Query --- ----------- Headache Research Report 303 APPENDIX I BASIC CAYCE << DIET>> The << diet>> concepts which follow provide a framework for meal planning. You may find it helpful to use the laminated Basic << Diet>> sheet to remind you to follow the << diet>> . Put it in a conspicuous place in the kitchen (i. e., on the refrigerator using magnets). ACID-ALKALINE BALANCE Edgar Cayce frequently emphasized the importance of maintaining a proper acid-alkaline balance by eating mostly alkaline forming foods. A comprehensive list of foods is included in this section. The following summary will give you a quick overview of acid and alkaline-forming foods. Alkaline-Forming Foods (80% of the daily << diet>> should contain these foods): • All vegetables except dried beans, lentils, asparagus tips, and garbanzos. • All fresh << fruits>> except cranberries, plums, olives, prunes, and blueberries (preserves and canned << fruits>> are usually acid-forming). • Almonds, chestnuts, Brazil << nuts>> , and hazelnuts. Acid-Forming Foods (20 % of the daily << diet>> should contain these foods): • All meats except beef juice and bone meal. • All grains, cereals, and bakery products except for soybeans. • All dairy except buttermilk, yogurt, raw milk and whey. • Peanuts, pecans, and walnuts. FOOD COMBINATIONS TO AVOID Certain food combinations are difficult to digest and may cause problems in the digestive system. Here is a brief list of food combinations to avoid: • two or more starchy foods at the same meal • sugary foods and starchy foods • milk and citrus << fruit>> or juice. • cereals and citrus << fruit>> or juice. • large quantities of starchy foods with meat or cheese. • coffee with milk or cream. • raw apples with other foods. Headache Research Report 304 A TYPICAL DAY'S MENU Using the laminated Basic << Diet>> sheet as a guide, develop a variety of daily menus which suit your taste and conform to the dietary principles in this section. Here is a simple outline for a typical day's menu: • Breakfast Either citrus << fruit>> , or cooked or dry cereal • Lunch Raw vegetable salad with dressing, or << fruit>> salad • Dinner Steamed vegetables served with fish, poultry or lamb FOOD PREPARATION Proper food preparation is important to preserve nutrients and avoid toxicity. Here are some suggestions: • Steam vegetables in their own juices (e. g., patapar paper). • Never fry foods. • Use fresh, locally grown vegetables and << fruits>> whenever possible. • Avoid aluminum cookware. ATTITUDES AND EMOTIONS Edgar Cayce stated that even the most nutritious foods can turn to poison in the system if eaten while a person is in a negative frame of mind. Never eat when angry, worried or extremely tired. Headache Research Report 305 ACID- FORMING AND ALKALINE-FORMING FOODS It must be noted that because a food is acid it is no indication that it REMAINS acid in the body. It can turn alkaline. Honey and raw sugars produce alkaline ash, but because of a high concentrate of sugar become acid-formers. Those << fruits>> marked with an * should not be eaten with other foods. They are acid externally but alkaline internally.
