Good Lifestyle

As a firefighter who does not eat meat in the Chile-Con-Carne country, in Texas, I heard about every Popeye-and-Spinach gag in the book. (A favorite Jab of mine: "RIP, you do not eat food, you eat what food is eating.") But the jokes on grammate twigs are finally under the subcontractor. During my 12 years at the station, I took the first place to the world police and fire games, I participated in world-class triathlons and I recently became a national mastery champion. More and more of my station's firefighters started to follow my lead, and whenever they did, they lost weight and have seen remarkable improvements in their health. A guy was a walking heart attack; He had an external cholesterol level of 344. After a month of grains, legumes, vegetables and fruits - a totally vegetarian regime, as you can see, it was until 196.

With regard to nutrition, vegetables are the Olympians of food. The best of them, the dark leafy greens, are winners of the gold medal containing ridiculous amounts of macro and micronutrients, phytochemicals, bioflavonoids, antioxidants, vitamins, fibers, proteins. .. The list is happening and on. But you can only bring so many broccoli bols steam into an environment like a worst firefighters, where there is a cultural tradition of family style dishes called "wagons". So, to get guys on board my veggie-heavy wagon, I created with unique recipes and ingredients and I prepared things like homemade sauces, which are delicious and much easier to prepare than you Do not think. They proved so good that now the firefighters other stations stop regularly to sample our healthy and changing cuisine. Here are some of my favorite means of dressing up five of the most nutritious vegetables. And once you cut the fat with this vegetarian diet, make sure you readThe diet that will keep you skinny for life.

Like all other dark green leafy vegetables, mustard greens allow the silky mucosa of your arteries to produce nitric oxide. This element contributes not only to clean the blood, but also to expand the vessels, which allows to debit more blood towards your heart and your brain (without forgetting something else that is quite important for men). Greens of mustard have a strong and salty flavor. After bleached for 5 minutes, I have them with a sauce I'm doing in my blender. Combine 1/2 cup of cashew nuts, 1 tablespoon. Tamari (a rich Japanese soy sauce derived from more soy and less wheat than the common soy sauce), 2 cloves of garlic and enough water to give the sauce the consistency of a smoothie. And for another great addition of smoothie to your new vegetarian diet, be sure to guide some cups ofSex-Drive-Boosting Smoothie.

Bright color plants offer massive doses of vitamins and nutrients. Beets are rich in folate and betaine, which reduce the risk of heart disease by working together to protect blood vessels. I like to boil beets for 45 minutes, then up high with a grilled sesame seed sauce and honey. To make the sauce, grill the seeds for 4 minutes at 400 ° F, grind, then mix with 1 tablespoon. honey and 2 c. TSP. Tamari. The same sauce tastes both with green beans as well as onions.

A single rod of broccoli packs more than 3 grams of protein. But as much as I like to eat raw vegetables, broccoli is the one I find it difficult to eat a plain, so I wins in a marinade. Mix the juice of 2 lemons, 3 c. Soy sauce, 1 tablespoon. Each of the ginger and freshly grated molasses, and 1/2 c. Jalapeno chopped pepper. The flavors penetrate deep inside the broccoli if you leave it soak for an hour or two, and you will fall into the bowl in no time. I often use the same marinade for bell peppers. Broccoli's familythere is a huge libido booster, too, as if you needed another reason to move to a vegetarian diet.

Iceberg lettuce is a joke. It lacks not only flavor but also of nutritional value. For the foundation of your salads, cut the Roman into cubes. This thing has no place in a vegetarian diet. Its robust and crunchy leaves are low in calories and high vitamin C and beta-carotene (a form of vitamin A), which together prevent the fouling plate of the arteries. My default dressing combines 2 tbsp. Each of the balsamic vinegar and nutrition yeast (which contains vitamin B12, a nutrient key can not provide humans), 1 tbsp. Soup. Each of Tamari, mustard and honey, 1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce and water splash. A bit of this dressing goes a long way. Try it on baby spinach too.

Many people throw the thorns of the Swiss Chard, not to mention those of Collards and Kale. Not. They are full of fiber, a nutrient that most Americans receive only 10 to 15 grams of a day. I consume about four times more than many because plant-based foods are the only ones to contain fiber. Chop the thorns in tiny pieces and skip them or add them to the soups. Jumping Chard leaves with 1/4 cup of orange juice and 1 tbsp. Tea. Each of finely chopped garlic, pepper and flakes of Chile for about 5 minutes. I jump a broccoli like that too, but I cut the orange juice in half with carrot juice.
