A nutritarian diet is a diet style that's designed to be rich in nutrients and full of antioxidants and phytochemicals. It's a diet style with a high nutrient-per-calorie density. When you flood your body with the nutrients it needs,it doesn't just make you healthy and live long or prevent disease,it stops food addictions and food cravings,normalizes your appetite,and makes your body gravitate towards your ideal weight, effortlessly.
A "nutritarian" diet is also designed to be low in those hormones that promote cancer and aging; hormones like excessive amounts of insulin and excessive amounts of IGF-1, (Insulin-like Growth factor-1), the primary hormone that promotes cancers like breast cancer and prostate cancer.
"The whiter the bread, the sooner you're dead,"
"The more you eat green, the more you get lean,"
If you eat more greens and beans and less meat, it lowers IGF-1, which stops cancer in its tracks and doesn't promote the progression of fat on your body and cancer-cell proliferation.
Dr Fuhrman introduces us to the concept of G-B-O-M-B-S - our "Immune System Special Forces" - foods that inhibit fat storage on the body, foods that prevent cancer, foods that prolong our lifespan.
