DR. ALI's LUNCHES
(Low cost, everything toxic free, three to five days a week)
The Most Important Freedom Is Freedom From Disease
Truth has many enemies-among the better known are
innocent myths, untruths, half-truths, lies, pernicious lies, and
statistics. In clinical nutrition, truth has another little known enemy
which, in my view, brings more harm: not knowing. Specifically, important
aspects of nutrition not known to most people are:
►
Eating healthy is not a sacrifice;
► One
can eat healthy on a very limited budget; and
► It
is easy to avoid common foods that cause adverse food reactions, such as
sugar, gluten-containing grains, and dairy products (except yogurt and kafir).
One Cannot Unknow What One Knows
I see the essential problem of good nutrition to be a lack of proper
information and clarity of thinking in matters of food. During the first 20
years of my pathology work, I knew much about disease and nothing about
health. I regularly ate toxic foods, as did almost every other doctor in the
hospital. I suffered frequent migraine headaches, hypoglycemia, and periods
of unexplained irritability. Then my eating habits changes when my focus
shifted from a study of diseases to that of the state of absence of health.
Slowly and steadily, I began to experience the benefits of replacing bad
foods with good ones. I hope the reader will also consider a food journey,
beginning with Dr. Ali's Breakfast and Dr. Ali's
lunch described here.
Armed with good information and courage, it is possible for people to eat
well on a limited budget. The following suggestions provide light meals,
which are:
(
Wholesome;
(
Highly nutritious;
(
Oil-free;
(
Sugar-free;
(
"Everything-artificial-free";
(
Gluten-free;
(
Diverse; and
(
Low-cost.
Low Cost of Lunch
The cost of Dr. Ali's lunch varies from 90 to 95 cents (45 cents to 55
cents per lentil soup and 35 to 40 cents for a cup of yogurt (with a light
sprinkling of spices). Diversity in the dishes can be increased by using a wide
variety of seeds and vegetables added to the basic lentil lunches.
Glutenous grains are a very common source of food reactions, such as undue
tiredness after eating, abdominal bloating, and difficulties of mood and
mentation. Dr. Ali's Lunch is an excellent way to avoid gluten recations. In
essence, this lunch replaces wheat and other grains with lentils, seeds, nuts,
and vegetables. That, pof course, increases diversity in food elements.
