Protein
Unless you are a highly active person, eating more than 2-4 ounces of meat per day contributes to narrowing of the arteries.

A person who does physical labor and is involved in a great deal of movement at work, should eat a minimum of 4 ounces of protein per day. It is a good idea to check whether chemical additives are included in the protein.

While a little meat may be good for  you, do remember, meat is high in saturated fat. This limits your EPA and DHA activity, which produce prostaglandin and control the activity of your hormones.

Meat and bread are big contributors to creating constipation, particularly when eaten together. Meat is difficult to digest and unless well chewed gets into the colon partial digested. This feeds the gut bacteria and allows them to dominate the colon and create constipation. Bread can act as a glue, bloating in the abdomen, slowing the natural progress of waste production. Neither have much fiber and can cause problems in the colon.

Bad bacteria feeding on decaying partially digested meat along with other undigested food contribute to the build up of toxic matter in the colon. If you have acne, you need regular elimination of faecal matter to avoid a toxic build up ending up in your blood stream and finally erupting through your skin as acne.

The following grains are beneficial:
* Brown rice - contain many amino acids for repairing damaged skin.
* Whole grains – these little packages deliver folic acid, magnesium, and vitamin E, B vitamins, minerals and fiber where you need it
* Oats – after your morning juice have oats with honey or raisins. They are anti-inflammatory on the skin – they also keep you regular.

Seeds and nuts
* Almonds - Almonds contain protein, the B vitamins, calcium, iron, potassium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Keep a small bag of almonds with you throughout the day to snack on.
* Flax seeds – Small seeds rich in of omega 3 oil, an essential oil for life, an anti-inflammatory oil required in reducing acne. Excellent for putting fiber into your smoothies. They also contain fiber when used ground up and put into smoothies.
·  Pecans – Another good nut to snack on as it contains Vitamins A, B, C, calcium, iron, phosphorus, and potassium.
* Pine nuts - They contain vitamins A, C, B, protein and iron, all contributing to your improving skin.
* Sesame seeds - Provide calcium, phosphorus, and potassium. Sesame seeds relieves acne by reducing the swelling.
* Sunflower seeds – Loads of good quality oil, protein, calcium and vitamin A.  All good for the entire body and particularly for dry skin.

These nuts and seeds are intended to be eaten raw to preserve nutrients otherwise destroyed by heating and processing.
