Better Health Naturally

 Whole Living = Wellness

Whole Living is natural -- using herbs, touch, foods, and the power of the mind to achieve good health.

Whole Living is spiritual, helping you find the natural African-American spirit that means living life to its fullest.

Whole Living combines modern medicine with the healing traditions of the past to provide the rich benefits of both methods.

Whole Living looks at the complete person -- not just isolated parts to revitalize you in body, mind, and spirit.

Natural Cooking

A selection of produce typical of a vegetarian diet.Vegetarianism, theory and practice of eating only fruits and vegetables, thus excluding animal flesh, fish, or fowl and often butter, eggs, and milk. In a strict vegetarian, or vegan, diet (i.e., one that excludes all animal products), the nine amino acids that must be supplied by the diet can be obtained by eating foods that include both grains and legumes (e.g., beans or tofu) at any point during the day. Vitamins B12 and D can be obtained through supplements or the addition of a cup of nonfat milk or yogurt to the daily diet. Ovolactovegetarians obtain complete proteins by including milk, cheese, and eggs in their diets.

The basis of the practice of vegetarianism may be religious or ethical, economic, or nutritional, and its followers differ as to strictness of observance. Certain Hindu and Buddhist sects are vegetarian, as are Seventh-day Adventists. As a general movement vegetarianism arose about the middle of the 19th cent.; it made considerable progress in Great Britain and in the United States. In the contemporary United States, vegetarianism has gained acceptance as a practice that lowers one's risk for the “diseases of affluence,” e.g., high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes, and certain cancers.

Low-Fat Soul -Jonell Nash
Soul food is the culinary proof of a people's ability to take lemons and make lemonade. Brought to America in shackles and fed on scraps and leftovers from their masters' tables, African slaves took pigs' cheeks, hocks, and tails, supplemented them with what they could catch (possum, rabbit, or squirrel) and what they could grow (okra, greens, or lima beans, for example), and worked a kind of culinary alchemy, creating a cuisine that was both filling and tasty. No one worried in those days about too much fat or sugar in their diets, since field work had a tendency to burn off excess calories in a hurry. Times have changed since then, however, and modern lifestyles don't do as well with soul food's high-fat, high-calorie content. Enter Low-Fat Soul, the answer to every health-conscious, soul-food-loving cook's prayer.

Vegetarianism is a dietary practice excluding all body parts of any animal and products derived from animals (such as lard, tallow, gelatin, cochineal) from one's diet. Many contemporary vegetarian diets include some honey as well as milk and other dairy products, and some include eggs.

Varieties of vegetarianism (terminology)

Different practices of vegetarianism include:

Religious dietary restrictions come in many forms and are sometimes compatible with the secular terminology; see below.

The following are not generally considered vegetarianism:

Breakfast ScrambleIn current English, the term "vegetarian" is occasionally used for restricted diets that nevertheless include some types of meat. Usually these deviations from traditional usage are made casually, perhaps for lack of a better word. The resulting confusion of terms can create awkward situations for more strict vegetarians, however, as any traditional vegetarian who has been expected to eat a dish because it "only contains a little meat" (or "is just fish") can readily attest.

In 1847, attendees at the meeting of the first Vegetarian Society in Ramsgate, England, agreed that a "vegetarian" was a person who refuses to consume flesh of any kind. Prior to that time, vegetarians had often been called Pythagoreans, after the philosopher and his followers who also abstained from meat (and possibly some types of beans).
