BACK TO COOKING BASICS cook book

WHAT IS BACK TO COOKING BASICS?

This cookbook was created to answer a deep need: a simple cookbook written with the principles of whole foods firmly in mind, that would afford optimal health and at the same time allow for the detoxification of environmental and dental toxins we are all challenged with in the 21st century.

What sets BACK TO COOKING BASICS apart from other types of cooking is this: BACK TO COOKING BASICS uses foods in their natural state.

It avoids imitation foods like refined grains (white rice, white flour, etc.), refined sugars (pasteurised honey, white sugar, brown sugar, confectioner’s sugar, fructose, etc.), processed cheeses (so called “cheese food”, cheeses made with vegetable oils, etc.), low fat or skim dairy products (skim milk, low fat milk, ‘light’ butter, low fat cheeses, non fat or low fat yoghurts, etc.), lean meats (skinless chicken or poultry products, beef or lamb with the fat trimmed off, etc.), processed meats (various luncheon meats, hot dogs, etc.), imitation “meats” (soy protein powder, soy hot dogs, etc.), unnatural fats (margarine, Olean, vegetable oils, canola oil, etc.) and processed foods, in general.

BACK TO COOKING BASICS will teach a system of eating that can be modified for personal preference; it will teach you health promoting principles. The principles are timeless. It should also be an easy process.
With all of the expert nutritional advice out there telling us that meat is bad for you, that saturated fats like butter and lard cause cancer, and that high carbohydrate/low fat diets are healthier for humans of all ages, the tenets of BACK TO COOKING BASICS may seem strange. The tenets, however, are a sure foundation as opposed to the conflicting opinions of modern nutritional theory for the simple reason that humans evolved and thrived on a diet of whole nutrient dense foods.

Did you ever hear about ancient cultures eating margarine? Canola oil? Packaged breakfast cereals?
Of course, the answer to these questions is NO. If you want to really know what you should be eating to stay healthy, you need to eat the foods that human beings as a species have evolved into, for these are the foods that our bodies have grown accustomed to and will thrive on.
