Excess or deficient vitamins, minerals, and nutrients cause symptoms like poor absorbency of vitamins, minerals, and nutrients, cognitive decline, hair loss (excess vitamin A), and feeling faint and irregular heartbeat (potassium deficiency).
Freezing foods destroys vitamins, nutrients, and minerals.
Cooking breaks down some vitamins and nutrients.
Try my personal meal routine for every day.
Breakfast
Sort chia seeds to remove unknown seeds from equipment and foreign objects.
Morning oatmeal is eaten with wheat germ (not a crunchy additive) to make crunching chia seeds easier.

1½ cups of organic cooked oats
(Carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and iron.)

2 to 3 tablespoons organic chia seeds
(Protein, fiber, and omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fats.)
Chew every seed thoroughly, else the body won’t absorb the nutrients!

2 tablespoons organic wheat germ
(Protein, fiber, vitamins, and nutrients.)

1 cup of organic unsweet almond milk
(Vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and calcium)

1 washed whole organic avocado
(High in fat, protein, fiber, and many vitamins and nutrients. Enjoy one every day.)

1 or 2 washed, raw organic bell pepper
(Fiber, more than 100% suggested day value vitamin C, and low values of other vitamins and nutrients.)

Infrequently ½ cup of Grape Nuts cereal
(Protein, fiber, vitamins, nutrients, and minerals.)
Contains 90% RDV iron, taken occasionally to supplement for thiamin (vitamin B1), riboflavin (vitamin B2), niacin (vitamin B3), pyridoxine (vitamin B6), magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc.
Lunch
Sort quinoa and sunflower seeds to remove foreign objects.

1½ cups of organic uncooked oats
(Carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and iron.)

2 tablespoons organic unsulfured coconut flakes
(Saturated and unsaturated fats, the brain and body need it to function and stay alive.)

1 cup of organic unsweet almond milk
(Vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and calcium)

½ cup unshelled organic pistachios
(Fat, protein, fiber, vitamins and nutrients.)

1 cup washed, raw green beans
(Fiber, protein, vitamin C, and other nutrients and minerals)
Dinner
Sort beans, quinoa, and rice prior to cooking to remove foreign objects.

½ cup soaked and freshly cooked pinto beans
(Fat, protein, fiber, vitamins and nutrients.)
Soak 6 to 8+ hours, rinse multiple times to remove the “bean water” which cause flatulence and sometimes stomach ache; Cook time 1 to 2 hours if soaked, 2 to 3 hours if not soaked
Pinto beans plus either garbanzo beans or lentils.

½ cup soaked and freshly cooked chickpeas (garbanzo)
(Amino acids, fat, protein, fiber, vitamins and nutrients.)
Soak with the pinto beans.

½ cup rinsed and freshly cooked lentils
(Amino acids, protein, vitamins and nutrients.)
Cook time 30 to 60 minutes.

½ cup rinsed and cooked organic quinoa
(Protein, fiber, and amino acids. Delicious, craveable, and nutty.)

½ cup rinsed and cooked organic wild rice
(Carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and iron.)

1 to 2 teaspoons of herbs
(Medicinal and healing properties, provides low value of nutrients.)

2 tablespoons of avocado or olive oil
(Saturated and unsaturated fats, the brain and body need it to function and stay alive.)

1 to 2 cups of raw or cooked vegetables
(Fiber, vitamins, minerals, and nutrients.)
Green peas, spinach, corn, beet, butternut squash, asparagus, brussel sprouts, broccoli, green beans, yellow squash, and zucchini, are my favorite nutritional choices.
Grow organic vegetables from home and cook the leaves for some nutritious greens. Many plants have edible leaves, including radish, carrot, broccoli, brussel sprouts, kohlrabi, the gourd family (Cucurbitaceae [pumpkin, butternut squash, acorn squash, zucchini, yellow squash, etc.]), nasturtiums, purslane, dandelions, false hawksbeard, etc. Small leaves are the least fibrous and bristly leaves may be cooked to improve the texture.

1 cup of unsweet soy milk
(Protein, fiber, calcium, vitamin A, vitamin B2 (Riboflavin), and vitamin B12 (-cobalamin) [B12 deficiency may cause death, click here to learn more], and calcium, iron, and potassium.)
