About Nutrition for a Healthy Immune System
The conversation between Joyce Graff and Haylie Pomroy focuses on nutrition to support the body in being healthy. Much of the discussion centers around foods not to eat. Haylie primary advice is to stay as close to the earth as possible – organic local produce, free of herbicides and pesticides, prepared in healthy ways without saturated fats or refined sugar.
Haylie is not a fan of “sugar-free” products, which contain chemical substitutes for sugar, and may also include additional fats and salt. Instead of refined sugar she recommends raw sugar, stevia (a leaf), whey low, coconut sugar, sucranot, xyletol, or agave nectar.
Meats have issues of their own. Avoid nitrates and nitrites (used as preservatives). Animals are often raised on antibiotics and growth hormone to bring them more rapidly to market, or to cause them to retain more water (making the meat weigh more). These additives, however, also affect us who eat the flesh of these animals.
Many people with mysterious discomforts and diseases may benefit from a change in their diet. Getting a thorough analysis of this situation is not easy to accomplish. Western doctors will do a portion of the analysis, but the remainder will be best done with a licensed naturopath, or a chiropractor who includes the practice of natural medicine. Haylie has a list of Resources on her website that may be helpful to people seeking nutritional counseling and diagnosis.
She also suggests the American College for the Advancement in Medicine http://www.acamnet.org which includes a “Find a Physician” utility to assist people in finding a physician who practices integrative medicine, combining the benefits of both Western medicine and Eastern medical practice.
