The New You Resolution Pantry includes a wide selection of nutrient dense, conveniently packaged, whole foods. It could be called our 'super sampler'. It is an extremely versatile package that actually offers 3 options to help you move in a healthier direction.
Option 1: Use the New You Resolution Pantry as a family 'snack kit' for all ages, in place of junk food and fast food. Remove the junk food and highly processed/packaged foods from the drawers and cupboards, and replace it with healthy Wholefood Farmacy foods.
Option 2: Use the New You Resolution Pantry as your first step in the right direction towards healthier living and losing weight (if needed). The instructions for this option are as follows:
- Never skip a meal, instead snack on any of the foods. This will keep your metabolism up, blood sugar spikes down, and assist you in losing weight
(if needed).
- Enjoy any of the foods in place of junk food, fast food, or other less healthy choices.
- Drink more water instead of sodas, energy drinks, coffee, and sports drinks.
Option 3: Use it as a 13 day Nutritional Event to 'restart' your body nutritionally, back to the basics of nutrient-dense raw Whole Food and water. This is an easy approach offering you a realistic way to 'jump start' your health, wellness, and weight loss goals (if needed). You will feel great, enjoy this approach, and have fun while doing it! With such a wide variety of foods to choose from, you will always be able to satisfy your cravings in the healthiest way imaginable! Here are the instructions for this approach:
The concept is to "re-start" your body nutritionally - back to the basics of whole foods and water. Start each day with a big glass of water. Then as soon as you feel a little hungry, take a small handful of one of the snack foods that you have. Next, take a little bit of the food out of your hand, pop it in your mouth, and chew it up slowly and thoroughly (25-30 times) to aid in the digestive process, and so you can taste and savor these nutrient-dense raw whole foods. Keep eating/snacking and drinking water until you are satisfied, not until you are full, but until you are satisfied. You may eat the foods in any order you prefer, but it's probably better not to eat all of one kind before you start on another. Mix them up for variety. Also, be sure to incorporate the wholefood beverages/drinks (7 Farinas, 4 soups, and Farmacy Pro Power) into your eating/snacking regimen along with all of the wonderful snack foods. Your eating/snacking should not be rushed - take a little time, sit down, eat/snack on the foods, chewing them slowly and thoroughly. From there, anytime throughout the day you feel hungry, repeat that same process - in fact, we recommend eating/snacking at least every 90 minutes throughout the day, although it's fine to do it more often if you like. It is important to eat slowly and to pay attention to your body - when your stomach lets you know your are satisfied - stop eating. Remember, these foods are very dense in nutrition. The natural fibers in whole foods tend to expand for 30 minutes up to one hour after eating them. Take care not to eat too much – start with smaller amounts and then gradually increase if necessary.
Drink at least 8 large glasses per day. Most people believe that drinking plenty of liquids is the same as drinking plenty of water but nothing could be farther from the truth. When you drink water, it is recognized and absorbed from the stomach within 45 seconds. From there it proceeds on a path through your brain, vital organs, and finally into your blood stream. Properly hydrated blood is thinner, flows easier, and lowers blood pressure naturally. When you drink any other liquid (besides water) your stomach processes it as food, pulling water from your blood stream, making the blood thicker and increasing blood pressure.
Also, we encourage you to walk for 45-60 minutes per day. You can do two 30 minute walks, three 20 minute walks, four 15 minute walks, or you can get out there and do it all at once. Choose the approach that’s best for you – but get out there and move under your own power every day, if at all possible.
After only two or three days you may begin to notice exciting changes as the toxins are starting to be flushed out of your body and all of this pure whole food nutrition takes effect. For those needing to lose weight, many report weight loss of as much as one pound per day beginning around day 3 or day 4. After day 4 your tastes will most likely begin to change. You begin to crave fresh raw whole foods (fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, grains, and berries). Salads, lightly steamed vegetables, berries, etc., can also be eaten during the 13 days as a special treat, but only on occassion and in moderation. This change in desired foods may help develop a pathway to a desirable lifestyle change, creating a permanent solution to weight control (when needed) as well as many other benefits.
After 13 days, many people report:
