The Gracie Diet On The Go – Anytime, Anywhere

by Rorion Gracie filed under Tools and Tips

The Diet is flexible enough that, even if you are at a 7-Eleven in the middle of nowhere, you can still improvise. Here are some suggestions:

First – look for any fresh fruit and use it as the base of your meal, taking into consideration the proper combinations;

Second – if there are no fresh fruits, try a salad (no dressing) and nuts (without raisins);

Third – a bag of nuts (without raisins) and water, crackers are optional and finally – a tuna or turkey sandwich and water.

Tips and Reminders

Raw or cooked egg yolk, coconut water, brewer’s yeast, coffee, and several kinds of tea are neutral. They’re compatible with any food.
Bread should be made from whole flour and should not be consumed within 24 hours of being baked. Then, prior to being eaten, it should be toasted or oven-warmed.
Avoid sweets, canned foods in syrup, and spices including: pepper, clove, cinnamon, mustard, pickles, and vinegar.
Don’t eat pork in any form.
Space meals at least 41⁄2 hours apart to ensure complete digestion before you eat again. It’s OK to wait longer. Young children may eat every 4 hours. If you feel hungry before it’s time to eat, drink a glass of water. Never snack!

Brewer’s Yeast or Nutritional Yeast?

Shyanne

Brewer’s Yeast is best.

I’ve found Nutritional to be better… but they often get mixed up.

What’s wrong with those spices?

Pepper, clove, cinnamon, mustard, pickles, and vinegar gives you gas and with the wrong combination they will give you stomach problems.

My wife LOVES the book (even though she hasn’t read it yet!) because I’m much more interested in food preparation and we find ourselves spending a lot more time in the kitchen!! Gracie Diet! Good for one, good for all. Can’t wait for our little one year old to try the ice cream!

I lost ten pounds in 2 weeks because of this diet with minimal exercise. This is THE way to change your life.

Spices are good for you, they should not be left out of one’s diet, and the whole 4 1/2 hours apart for eating anything has been proven wrong. Studies have shown that eating smaller portions throughout the day is better for you. It keeps food in your stomach, which prevents gorging.

As long as everything you eat is 100% all natural whole food (fruits, vegetables, legumes, and grains), you can eat anything and as much of it as you want whenever you want.

The main thing which I believe this diet encompasses as well, is to eat no processed foods, and severely limit animal products to those that are lean.

Whole, natural pasture raised eggs are one of the best things one can eat. Ounce for ounce they have more nutrition packed in them than any fruit or vegetable (although no phyto-chemicals)

The whole deal with the bread I just do not understand. Not eating it when it is fresh just doesn’t make much sense to me.

It is definitely true that pork should not be eaten, but shellfish should not be eaten either. The general rule of thumb is to avoid scavenger animals altogether.

You are sooooo wrong and misinformed. During short (3.5 days or less) your metabolism actually increases due to norepinephrine and epinephrine to get u up and searching for food. 6 small meals a day is BS and is very unsatisfying. You need to go check out http://www.leangains.com and read up on “Intermittent fasting”. Besides, the Gracie’s have proven this diet over more than 65 years, who are u to tell THEM that they are wrong, have u seen their condition ? Lean and mean. Now go eat your highly unsatisfying 200 calories. Good luck surviving if our food supply goes down for any small length of time. Try researching “unconventional” information, obviously modern nutritional advise is working…..because EVERYONE is normal weight, haha, right.

can i eat turkey bacon?

http://hnygaard.com/ Harald Nygård

If its bacon wrapped around turkey? then the answer is no. Bacon is not a part of the GD since its pork.

This is ridiculous, if I waited that long between meals I would be very sick. And eating bread within 24 hours? Common. This is just common sense healthy eating with some stupid theories attached.
