Don't eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn't recognize as food." (Michael Pollan)

To kick off the lenting season we'd like to propose 

some ideas to overcome this difficult period.

We found a medical food table which reveals that


 WE DON'T ALWAYS NEED WHAT WE WANT. 

While our body is sending us signals of longing for a certain thing,
 it actually needs something completely different.

We picked our 4 favorites which we wanted to share with you. 


1. If you lust for SWEETS try LIVER instead.

Because what you really need is

Tryptophan

Sulfur

Phosphorus

Carbon

Chromium
