A guide to eating natural based foods including how to change your lifestyle and sample meal plans. We live in a busy world that seems to be so far removed from that of our ancient ancestors, and we eat foods that are highly processed so they are convenient to cook and eat. We ignore our physician's nutritional advice while hoping that yet another TV dinner will leave us feeling satisfied. Ditch those TV dinners and start eating natural foods that will give you much more energy while helping you to lose weight. Stop eating meals that have one flavor and enjoy dishes that bring your taste buds to life.

For years, I ate processed foods simply because I had no desire to create meals from scratch. I was overweight, I had very little energy, and I was relying on supplements to help me get my recommended daily vitamin intake. After a while I realized I had very little pleasure eating the foods I ate, especially as my diet was making me ill. On the cusp of diabetes, and after a cancer diagnosis and successful battle with breast cancer, I decided to make a change. I began to eat natural foods that tasted good and gave me much more energy. I found simple recipes that took 20 minutes to cook but were much more filling than the priciest TV dinners. I lost weight, my energy levels continued to sky rocket, and for once I started to feel like my younger self.

There is no secret recipe or method to how I now eat; natural eating is a complete lifestyle change, not a diet. It is the consumption of unprocessed foods that will give your body the nutrients it needs. This book will teach you how to:

• Benefit from eating natural foods
• Avoid heavily processed foods
• Make meals that are both satisfying and healthy
• Find the best places to shop for the foods you love
• And so much more!
