Hello. I am Rebecca Lake. My Dad and his brothers all had heart disease and diabetes, so I bought the books "How to Prevent and Reverse Heart Disease" by Dr. Esselstyn and "How to Prevent and Reverse Diabetes" by Dr. Barnard and they both said exactly the same thing: DON'T EAT ANY MEAT, DAIRY OR OIL!
Ridding your diet from these foods and oil not only help you avoid heart disease and diabetes, but also help you avoid cancers and autoimmune diseases like lupus and multiple sclerosis and countless other maladies. I still eat iodized salt and very little to none cane sugar(regular sugar is GMO and I was eating GMO-free before I began eating Whole Food Plant Based (WFPL))so the recipes may contain either or both of those items. I also eat Whole Grains so I eat only 100% Whole Wheat Bread(which is Whole Wheat Bread where the second ingredient is "vital wheat gluten" and not "wheat flour" which is really white flour:( not a whole grain!, and lentils and quinoa and groats. I take Vitamin D3 2500 IU and Methyl Vitamin B12(Jarrow) 2500 mg once a week. I am drinking 120 oz. of water daily. I am eating a monster salad every day with either a hummus based 3-2-1 dressing or straight 3-2-1 dressing. I also eat some other recipe from my website, such as either enchiladas or red sauce with whole grain pasta or on whole grain toast, but before I heat either of them up I preload the bowl with spinach or kale and that way get tons of greens in each meal:) Dr. Greger says preload your breakfast with either two cups of water, or an apple(which he calls a negative calorie preload). I do.

So in this bowl is 5 minute Grouts, I made a mistake black beans, and kale.
Then I microwave this for 2 1/2 minutes
Then I add salsa, a lot of it(3 Tbsp):)
Then I add my vegan sour cream :)
Stir:) DELICIOUS!!!!
My body just hums on this food:)
