Buy local organic produce in season. Buy food in its whole natural state, as it was grown. Cook whole foods lightly, using fresh herbs and spices, with cold pressed oils such as olive to enhance the flavor.
Read the list of whole foods and decide what to purchase based on your taste. The more whole foods you try, the more you will become accustomed to cooking and preparing them, and your health will blossom: you will lose weight, look vibrant, and have more energy to exercise.
Your diet will be naturally high in soluble fiber and contain the polysaccharides necessary for cellular communication and immune function if you select from the clear group each day: also consume beans, gums, psyllium, sea vegetables, oats, and brown rice.
Select a food from each color group on a daily basis, to get all the vitamins, minerals, enzymes and antioxidants needed for a strong constitution. Colors must be balanced to prevent cancer in medical studies, including beta-carotene and lycopene.
In The Rainbow Program we encourage you to exchange food colorings in refined foods for a food of the same color from this list. Black food is balancing to the kidneys and helps to prevent adrenal exhaution.
