• Vegetarianism 菜食主義
• "Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet. Albert Einstein "何も、人間の健康の利益になるとして、地球上の生命の生存の可能性を高める多くの菜食主義への進化として" -アルバートアインシュタイン
  A vegetarian menu is a powerful and pleasurable way to achieve good health. The vegetarian eating pattern is based on a wide variety of foods that are satisfying, delicious, and healthful. Vegetarians avoid meat, fish, and poultry (although most of us here at Educate-Yourself do eat fish for protein). Those who include dairy products and eggs in their diets are called lacto-ovo vegetarians. Vegens (pure vegetarians) eat no meat, fish, poultry, eggs, or dairy products. While there is a considerable advantage to a lacto-ovo vegetarian pattern, vegen diets are the healthiest of all, reducing risk of a broad range of health concerns. ベジタリアンメニューの健康を達成するために、パワフルで楽しい方法です。菜食主義の食事パターンは、おいしい満足感がある食品のさまざまなで、ベースとし、健康に良い。菜食主義者、肉、魚を回避し、家禽（私たちはここを教育で、ほとんどが在宅自己タンパク質の魚を食べるか）。人々は乳製品や卵を自分たちの食生活に含まれて乳卵菜食主義者と呼ばれます。 Vegens（純粋な菜食主義者）製品は、肉、魚、鶏肉、卵、乳製品を食べる。中には乳製品にはかなりの利点は、卵菜食主義のパターンですが、vegen食事は、すべての健康、健康への懸念の広範囲のリスクを減らしている。
  Vegetarians have much lower cholesterol levels than meat eaters, and heart disease is uncommon in vegetarians. The reasons are not hard to find. Vegetarian meals are typically low in saturated fat and usually contain little or no cholesterol. Since cholesterol is found only in animal products such as meat, dairy, and eggs, vegens consume a cholesterol free diet. The type of protein in a vegetarian diet may be another important advantage. Many studies show that replacing animal protein with plant protein lowers blood cholesterol levels-even if the amount and type of fat in the diet stays the same. Those studies show that a low fat, vegetarian diet has a clear advantage over other diets. 菜食主義者は、心臓病の菜食主義者では珍しいことです肉を食べるよりもはるかに低いコレステロールレベルがあります。理由を見つけるのは難しいされていません。菜食主義の食事は通常、飽和脂肪、通常ほとんど、あるいはまったく含まれて中のコレステロールの低されます。以来、コレステロールの動物性食品だけで、肉、乳製品など、発見され、卵、vegensコレステロール食を摂取する。菜食主義の食事中のタンパク質のタイプ別の重要な利点があります。多くの研究では、植物性タンパク質に置き換えて動物性タンパク質の血中コレステロール値を下げる場合でも量や脂肪の種類の食事中の同じ状態のまま表示されます。これらの研究では、低脂肪、菜食主義の食事療法上の明確な利点が表示されます。
  An impressive number of studies, dating back to the early 1920s, show that vegetarians have lower blood pressure than non vegetarians. In fact, some studies have shown that adding meat to a vegetarian diet raises blood pressure levels rapidly and significantly. The effects of a vegetarian diet occur in addition to the benefits of reducing the sodium content of the diet. When patients with high blood pressure begin a vegetarian diet, many are able to eliminate their need for medication.
  This is just a small excerpt from the "Vegetarian Starter Kit."
  You might like to know... 研究の印象的な数を、再び1920年代の初め、ショーは菜食主義者、非菜食主義者よりも低い血圧がにまでさかのぼる。実際には、いくつかの研究では、菜食主義の食事療法に加え、肉を迅速かつ大幅に血圧レベルが上昇を示している。菜食主義の食事療法の効果は、食事のナトリウム量の削減の利点に加えて、発生します。ときに高血圧の菜食主義の食事療法を開始する患者は、多くの薬物治療の必要性を排除することができます。これは、"ベジタリアンスターターキットから、ほんの少しの抜粋です。"

Alkaline diet is also known as alkaline acid diet, acid alkaline diet or alkaline ash diet.Iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, and copper are incombustible and are principal components of ash.However, it is healthier choice to eat the balanced mix of acidic and alkaline foods, as striving on only one type can lead to several health problems by making the body either too acidic or too alkaline.Food is classified in three categories: acid, alkaline and neutral based on the pH level of their ash after diluting with water.
Alkaline diet is based on eating few fresh citrus and low-sugar fruits, tubers, vegetables, legumes and nuts, and avoiding meat, dairy, grains, caffeine, alcohol, sugar and fungi.This type of diet helps balance slight alkalinity in the blood without causing any stress on regulators of acid-base homeostasis in the body.As compared to raw foods, cooked foods are more alkaline, and several holistic practitioners state that modern diets are too acidic due to lack of vegetables and fruits in them.There are number of health issues that can be resolved using alkaline diet.
Starting alkaline diet or eating alkaline foods refers to consuming drinks and foods that have alkaline effect on the body.In their natural state, lemon and orange juices are acidic, but they turn alkaline in the body after metabolism.Having the acidic body can lead to several skin conditions, and doing the alkaline diet can help you get a more youthful appearance.
Alkaline or acid effect of the food does not have to be measured in grams, calories or anything technical, and most of us should aim to eat 75-80% alkaline foods, and just 20-30% of acid forming foods.Carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, cabbage, eggplant, celery, squash, mushrooms and turnips have alkaline ash.Before starting the alkaline diet, it is advisable to know your body’s condition so that you can set appropriate goals, and also notice any changes in the body after following the diet.All chemical foods are acid forming foods and must be avoided.
Alkaline diet is recommended for prevention of osteoporosis, kidney stones, and degeneration of muscle tone.If someone is suffering from chronic kidney failure, he or she must consult he physician before starting the alkaline diet.As most of the foods we eat generate acid wastes, it is essential to drink alkaline water to maintain the optimum energy and health.For optimal functioning, the pH level of the body should remain between 7.33-7.4.
