Hi!
The staples of the diet are: wild caught fatty fish (salmon, halibut, sardines), turkey-no nitrites, chicken, all colors of fruights and veggies...think bright colors of the rainbow, eggs, olive oil, plain yogurt sweetened only with fruit and agave syrup, cottage cheese, kefir (a slightly fizzy yogart drink), whole grains....
A normal day for me would be as follows:
(keep in mind Perricone gives all the recipes)
Breakfast:
omelet made with 2 eggs, 2 egg whites and fresh herbs (I add tomatoes)
yogurt or kefir smoothie - 6 ounces plain yogurt, 1/4 cup mixed frozen berries and 1 serving of acai (frozen pupl of amazon fruit higher in antioxidants than pomegranete...but POM juice is good in it too<img src=""> I add stevia to this to sweeten it.
8 ounces green tea
Snack:
1 cup cottage cheese with 1 tbs ground flaxseed
Lunch:
greek salad topped with chicken
1 apple
Snack:
apple with 3 tablespoons almond butter...or more depending on how much i need
green tea
Dinner:
1 bowl turkey two bean chili with feta cheese
dark green leafy salad with 2 tablespoons olive oil and lemon to taste
Snack:
sliced turkey rolled up with provolone, mayo, cherry tomatoes, sprouts
handful of pumpkin seeds
half an orange
On this diet, the first four weeks I did not cheat at all...It was a full time job. I learned to make meals all at once so I had several things to choose from....otherwise, I was going hungry waiting while my meals were cooking!
At the month marker, I started adding some cheese back into my diet and I added certain bars like Think Organic. Ingredients are as follows: organic dates, organic cashews, organic apricots, unsweetened coconuts....yeah! I like this because it has no refined sugar.... 150 calories and then I have a little nut butter.
Sounds like a lot of work, but it has gotten sooo much easier....and the change in the way I feel is huge.

I feel that eliminating cheese will add to the anti inflammatory benefits. Dairy products (even organic dairy products) creates more mucus. More mucus equals more inflammation. If you eat too many dried fruits watch out! Healthy sugars add to inflammation.
It is so difficult to avoid dairy when you want to gain weight. GOOD LUCK!!!
Thankfully, I do not have to gain weight but when I did, I could not be as picky as I am now. It is difficult if you have to always battle weight. You have to weigh in what it is worth. pardon the pun.
Avoid wheat, dairy and some Soy products. Some gluten products for some people.
I try to stick to a healthy diet but sometimes we go out to dinner and all bets are off.
There is a new Very HEALTHY food bar by Garden of life. High in calories and oh so good for you.

Hi J
I cannot think of one off the top but I will say it is more important to get calories into you when you are thin from the way I see it. When you are thin, you lack energy and can be more susceptible to infection. When you reach a healthy weight you can back off on eating the foods that are mucus producing.
If you have no real troubles digesting dairy then perhaps a little in moderation cannot hurt?
I would rather have a meal with dairy than refined sugar.

Hi.
Don't know if this will help, but it is an idea. There is a weight gain mix by Naturade....Naturade Weight Gain..The all Natural Gainer. Here is what the can says: It provides balanced nutrition with 10 grams of protein per serving plus no added sugar, no apartame and no artificial ingredients of any kind. It does contain whey and soy protein isolate....but it is not like soy milk. What I do is add frozen berries, 2 scoops of the stuff and do almond milk or rice milk. Lately, I have found that I do not have eproblem with goat milk. I know, I know, goat milk sounds too "out there" but read this!!
GOT GOAT'S MILK?
What does goat's milk give you that cow's milk doesn't? In many parts of the world, goat's milk is preferred to cow's milk. Even in the United States, the goat is gaining popularity. Goats eat less and occupy less grazing space than cows, and in some families the backyard goat supplies milk for family needs. Goat's milk is believed to be more easily digestible and less allergenic than cow's milk. Does it deserve this reputation? Let's disassemble goat's milk, nutrient-by-nutrient, to see how it compares with cow's milk.
Different fat. Goat's milk contains around ten grams of fat per eight ounces compared to 8 to 9 grams in whole cow's milk, and it's much easier to find lowfat and non-fat varieties of cow's milk than it is to purchase lowfat goat's milk. Unlike cow's milk, goat's milk does not contain agglutinin. As a result, the fat globules in goat's milk do not cluster together, making them easier to digest. Like cow's milk, goat's milk is low in essential fatty acids, because goats also have EFA-destroying bacteria in their ruminant stomachs. Yet, goat milk is reported to contain more of the essential fatty acids linoleic and arachnodonic acids, in addition to a higher proportion of short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids. These are easier for intestinal enzymes to digest.
Different protein. Goat milk protein forms a softer curd (the term given to the protein clumps that are formed by the action of your stomach acid on the protein), which makes the protein more easily and rapidly digestible. Theoretically, this more rapid transit through the stomach could be an advantage to infants and children who regurgitate cow's milk easily. Goat's milk may also have advantages when it comes to allergies. Goat's milk contains only trace amounts of an allergenic casein protein, alpha-S1, found in cow's milk. Goat's milk casein is more similar to human milk, yet cow's milk and goat's milk contain similar levels of the other allergenic protein, beta lactoglobulin. Scientific studies have not found a decreased incidence of allergy with goat's milk, but here is another situation where mothers' observations and scientific studies are at odds with one another. Some mothers are certain that their child tolerates goat's milk better than cow's milk, and mothers are more sensitive to children's reactions than scientific studies.
Less lactose. Goat's milk contains slightly lower levels of lactose (4.1 percent versus 4.7 percent in cow's milk), which may be a small advantage in lactose-intolerant persons.
Different minerals. Although the mineral content of goat's milk and cow's milk is generally similar, goat's milk contains 13 percent more calcium, 25 percent more vitamin B-6, 47 percent more vitamin A, 134 percent more potassium, and three times more niacin. It is also four times higher in copper. Goat's milk also contains 27 percent more of the antioxidant selenium than cow's milk. Cow's milk contains five times as much vitamin B-12 as goat's milk and ten times as much folic acid (12 mcg. in cow's milk versus 1 mcg. for goat's milk per eight ounces with an RDA of 75-100 mcg. for children). The fact that goat's milk contains less than ten percent of the amount of folic acid contained in cow's milk means that it must be supplemented with folic acid in order to be adequate as a formula or milk substitute for infants and toddlers, and popular brands of goat's milk may advertise "supplemented with folic acid" on the carton.
I don't ever just drink it by itself, but I find that I can't taste a difference in weight gain drinks, cereal.
Try this Naturade Product...you might find that it is tolerable...and the taste is awesome!!

Goat's milk contains around ten grams of fat per eight ounces compared to 8 to 9 grams in whole cow's milk, and it's much easier to find lowfat and non-fat varieties of cow's milk than it is to purchase lowfat goat's milk. Unlike cow's milk, goat's milk does not contain agglutinin. As a result, the fat globules in goat's milk do not cluster together, making them easier to digest. Like cow's milk, goat's milk is low in essential fatty acids, because goats also have EFA-destroying bacteria in their ruminant stomachs. Yet, goat milk is reported to contain more of the essential fatty acids linoleic and arachnodonic acids, in addition to a higher proportion of short-chain and medium-chain fatty acids. These are easier for intestinal enzymes to digest.
Different protein. Goat milk protein forms a softer curd (the term given to the protein clumps that are formed by the action of your stomach acid on the protein), which makes the protein more easily and rapidly digestible. Theoretically, this more rapid transit through the stomach could be an advantage to infants and children who regurgitate cow's milk easily. Goat's milk may also have advantages when it comes to allergies. Goat's milk contains only trace amounts of an allergenic casein protein, alpha-S1, found in cow's milk. Goat's milk casein is more similar to human milk, yet cow's milk and goat's milk contain similar levels of the other allergenic protein, beta lactoglobulin. Scientific studies have not found a decreased incidence of allergy with goat's milk, but here is another situation where mothers' observations and scientific studies are at odds with one another. Some mothers are certain that their child tolerates goat's milk better than cow's milk, and mothers are more sensitive to children's reactions than scientific studies.
Less lactose. Goat's milk contains slightly lower levels of lactose (4.1 percent versus 4.7 percent in cow's milk), which may be a small advantage in lactose-intolerant persons.
Different minerals. Although the mineral content of goat's milk and cow's milk is generally similar, goat's milk contains 13 percent more calcium, 25 percent more vitamin B-6, 47 percent more vitamin A, 134 percent more potassium, and three times more niacin. It is also four times higher in copper. Goat's milk also contains 27 percent more of the antioxidant selenium than cow's milk. Cow's milk contains five times as much vitamin B-12 as goat's milk and ten times as much folic acid (12 mcg. in cow's milk versus 1 mcg. for goat's milk per eight ounces with an RDA of 75-100 mcg. for children). The fact that goat's milk contains less than ten percent of the amount of folic acid contained in cow's milk means that it must be supplemented with folic acid in order to be adequate as a formula or milk substitute for infants and toddlers, and popular brands of goat's milk may advertise "supplemented with folic acid" on the carton.
I don't ever just drink it by itself, but I find that I can't taste a difference in weight gain drinks, cereal.
Try this Naturade Product...you might find that it is tolerable...and the taste is awesome!!
Are there any high cal drinks that contain zero soy or zero dairy? I would gladly try them, becasue I think dairy bothers me, but my weight is so low its all I have to drink.</end quote></div>
Hi.
Don't know if this will help, but it is an idea. There is a weight gain mix by Naturade....Naturade Weight Gain..The all Natural Gainer. Here is what the can says: It provides balanced nutrition with 10 grams of protein per serving plus no added sugar, no apartame and no artificial ingredients of any kind. It does contain whey and soy protein isolate....but it is not like soy milk. What I do is add frozen berries, 2 scoops of the stuff and do almond milk or rice milk. Lately, I have found that I do not have eproblem with goat milk. I know, I know, goat milk sounds too "out there" but read this!!
GOT GOAT'S MILK?
What does goat's milk give you that cow's milk doesn't? In many parts of the world, goat's milk is preferred to cow's milk. Even in the United States, the goat is gaining popularity. Goats eat less and occupy less grazing space than cows, and in some families the backyard goat supplies milk for family needs. Goat's milk is believed to be more easily digestible and less allergenic than cow's milk. Does it deserve this reputation?

I agree on both counts!! I only eat small amounts of goat cheese.... And, I eat low glycemic fruits like honey-dew, caneloupe, kiwi, frozen berries, (but only 1/4 cup at a time) aplles, pears, the occasional orange..grapefruit.
One thing I did find out is that while on the diet my Vitamin c level in my blood dropped...significantly. Since vit c is a vital anti-oxidant, I decided to supplement. While I do take a vit c supplement, I feel like eating citrus fruits in moderation is very important. Vitamin c is water soluable and therefore can vary throughout the day. We tested it 2 times at different times of the day, so I felt that I needed to increase my intake of citrus. I eat tons of spinach andthe like...not really helping. So, vit c in fruits in moderation.
