Improve diet starting from almost 0

[I Citro]

The constant in everyone's comments is that food is a lifestyle choice.

I am no exception, and I slipped for professional, social reasons ... in eating habits that I deplore.
We are talking here neither more nor less than hygiene of life and food is part of it all like sleep, work, social life and physical and intellectual or "philosophical" activities ...

With the passing years, after the quarantine, we must fight a real fight to slow down the effects of existence on our organisms.

It is not easy to organize your life by leaving room for all these essential things to keep the moral balance and declining health.

The coming sunny days are a good opportunity to get back to work with all the colorful fruits and vegetables that will brighten up our heads and stomachs.

Take the opportunity to share this in the form of outdoor meals, picnics, hikes ...

I salivated just by reading the culinary proposals of each other ... And do not hesitate to play the card of originality.

Yesterday, I passed in front of a flowering acacia, I did not have time to prepare donuts but that did not prevent me from directly chewing the delicious sweet flowers ...

You already have to see what you have as a possibility.
It goes from your means, to the time you can devote to your food in the broad sense as well as the surface you have.

I will show you how I solved this feeding problem.
To begin with, my means are limited. I have 4 dependents and I unfortunately lost my job. So I go from interim to interim with the pleasures and the wages that go with it.

However, I'm still lucky, I have arable land and a few buildings.
The first thing I did was to install a chicken coop in the barn and a small pigsty thereafter.
This is for proteins.
As for vegetables, nothing very special. a second-hand greenhouse and a vegetable patch supply us with tomatoes, pumpkins, cucumbers, salads, turnips, potatoes, etc.
But there are still a few small details a little out of the ordinary.
Indeed, I produce natto at the beginning of summer. I dry it and mix it with the grain of pigs and hens.
Natto is an extraordinary food, the smell and taste of which are an infection. Which explains why I give it to chickens and pigs to enjoy its benefits without suffering the inconveniences. Knowing that the hens lay their beaks (expression), their eggs contain what they have eaten.
In their grain I also add linseed meal, alfalfa and limestone.
Pigs have the same diet as hens (same mixture) except in finishing, the last month they are put in water and barley + natto. and the last week I add herbs to flavor the meat. The purpose of this finish is to reduce the fat and make it firmer for meats.
This year, it is expected that the pigs can frolic outside. It will most certainly increase the vit Ds as soon as their fat. Which is not a bad thing in my sunless corner.
Not having the means, my inputs are not organic. It is not the desire that is lacking. But hey, it is less worse than what is eaten in town.

Grass = 100% Omega3 organic food
Icing on the cake, the town could rent your grazers (Salers, mini-cow and rabbit)

And yes! rabbit!

Hi,
Without wanting to become a pure vegetarian, there are vegetable proteins found in many legumes, tofu, a magic ingredient for making a whole bunch of original recipes, seitan, the wheat protein that is rich.

And if there is one food that should be banned from our dishes, it is all cow's milk products ... Even my gastro agrees with me, we stop cow's milk and goat's milk, recognized for their harmful effects on health.

It is enough to see the number of obese and ill-health Americans who drink their liter of milk per day, it is not only the hamburgers which are harmful, but there it would be necessary to lift the taboo of the agro-food industry and it is a task at the moment when all the farmers are demonstrating !!!

Dental pain eased for me since I eat less dairy products.

I am a fairly large consumer of dairy products.
It is culturally rooted in my eating habits and I would suffer a lot without it ...

The digestive inconvenience I sometimes suffer does not take place after my milk meals but after the other meals of the day.

I also consider that there is milk and milk and even if my wife declares that milk gives her a lot of gas, I do not complain.
I regularly indulge in "orgies" of whole raw milk that I boil the old-fashioned way with an "anti-rising milk".
It was the traditional way of preserving milk before the generalization of refrigerators. Boiled milk kept for 2 to 3 days in the cooking pan closed by a lid ...
Day after day, the cream rises to the surface and between the milk and the cream, hard to say which is the most delicious ...
I also manage to smell when the cows are fed on grass or on oil cakes and other silages which give milk an unpleasant smell and taste ...

Spring milk when the cows return to the meadows and the grass is oily is, from my point of view, a gastronomic wonder.

Hello. There are negative messages, which emerge repeatedly, around milk and milk products concerning certain pathologies, such as allergies, intolerances, digestive problems or even cancer.

The role of milk and milk products on health (bone, oral, digestive system, diabetes, cardiovascular or certain cancers, etc.) has been the subject of numerous studies. New scientific data constantly advances our knowledge, and makes it possible to clarify the role of dairy products on these pathologies.

I invite you to check for yourself the health benefits of milk. Different studies are available on the Internet on this subject but I do not know if I can put a link

I have nothing against expressions of contradictory ideas, debates. As long as we don't insult each other.

So that everyone understands: CNIEL = National Interprofessional Center for the Dairy Economy [http://www.maison-du-lait.com/fr/les-organisations/cniel]

Thank you for your welcome. Indeed, that is exactly it. We attach great importance to the various notices published on the web and do not hesitate to participate in conversations in order to provide additional information.

I hope our webmaster will not mind if you publish your studies and arguments.

I would be curious to know if the detractors of dairy products do not work for other interests and advance masked.

A good ration of raw milk from cows grazed in green meadows is for me an ineffable taste pleasure.

Such pleasure should do me more good for the body and morale than many tasteless tofu from the other side of the world and having pushed and traveled here with force inputs and petroleum products ...

I can not, in this period of demonstrations of French breeders, that think that they would have to take again in hand the distribution and the transformation of their products.
I go to the market or to the producer to buy quality products of which I know the origin, all this was confiscated by the large distribution with the past health scandals (mad cow, contraband horses, calves with hormones, contaminated milk, ...) and the future certainly holds others for us.
