See article keywords and concepts |  Upon achieving that goal, and given that no other MSG-containing ingredients are used to replace yeast extract (such as torula yeast, autolyzed or hydrolyzed vegetable proteins), Amy's Kitchen will receive our full endorsement for safe, healthful and tasty organic frozen foods.
Our present view of Amy's Kitchen is that the company is making some of the highest quality organic frozen foods on the market today and is clearly a superior food company with a desire to meet the stringent quality demands of informed consumers. |

See book keywords and concepts |  You'll have to eat fresh foods or minimally processed frozen foods (such as cooking frozen chicken breasts or steaming frozen vegetables).
Avoid eating microwave meals, most other packaged foods, and anything from fast-food restaurants. If you are overweight or discover that you are especially sensitive to sugars and carbohydrates, you may have to eliminate nearly all starchy and carb-containing foods. You might be able to eat small amounts of brown rice, however, if the rice is buffered by protein and high-fiber vegetables. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Since canola oil is contained in the majority of manufactured foods, baked goods, frozen foods, and restaurant foods, is it any wonder why people are falling ill everywhere, at a rate that is absolutely stunning and unprecedented?
So what do refined and manufactured oils and fats actually do to the body? For one thing, they can cause severe gastrointestinal disturbances. The number of people in the U.S. suffering from acid reflux disease, irritable bowel syndrome, Crohn's disease, constipation, colon cancer, etc., exceeds the number of all other diseases taken together. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Ezekiel 4:9 sprouted grain breads are in the frozen foods section of most health food stores and an increasing number of regular supermarkets, and they come in many forms— from sliced loaves (especially good toasted), to tortillas and delicious hamburger or hot dog buns. Read the ingredients.
There are three cooking implements that we have found indispensable. One is a rice cooker. You put in rice and water and simply walk away; the rice cooks on its own, worry-free, and you can even start it early. The second is a microplane, which you can find at any good kitchen store. |
Tori Hudson, N.D.
See book keywords and concepts |  Canned and frozen foods, fast foods, and processed/packaged foods are all suspect for high amounts of salt. Read the labels carefully. You may be surprised to find that some of the things you thought were healthy, such as certain salad dressings, are actually loaded with salt. Even a bean burrito at a fast-food restaurant will be high in salt. Look for "no salt" labels on your packaged foods, and go light on the saltshaker in the kitchen and at the table. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Trans fats are typically found in commercially processed foods that have been prepared under conditions of high heat, such as snack foods (for example, potato chips and roasted nuts), frozen foods (including entrees, snacks, whole dinners, desserts), commercially made cookies and crackers, packaged dinners, and baked goods
?saturated fat, found primarily in animal products (meat, poultry, whole-fat milk and dairy products, lard)
The bottom line is this: think olive oil, fish, and green leafy vegetables, and go light on meats and processed foods. |

See article keywords and concepts | | I have been eating and recommending Amy's Kitchen frozen foods for quite some time, and in all the labels I've read, I've never seen yeast extract on a single product from this company. That changed today when I purchased and ate an Amy's Kitchen "Vegetable Pie in a Pocket Sandwich," a product that claims, "NO Bioengineered Ingredients" on its label and says it is, "Made with organic vegetables & grains."
As it turns out, Amy's Vegetable Pie pocket sandwich is also made with yeast extract. Yep, you heard me correctly. Yeast extract. |
Andreas Moritz
See book keywords and concepts | | Avoid frozen foods, canned products and leftover foods. Take gymnema sylvestre to heal damaged pancreas cells, and evening primrose oil to improve nerve function. Refer to chapter 7, for information on auto-urine therapy and blood-sugar-balancing foods, herbs and spices, including oils and cinnamon. Cleansing of the main organs of elimination (liver, colon and kidneys) is essential for reversing diabetes of both types.
Read labels. If a processed food contains more than two to three separate items on it, it is likely to be of no use for your body. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Don't wash your vegetables until you're ready to use them because excess moisture on them can cause mold. frozen foods of course go into the freezer.
Turkey or chicken breast, if fresh, go in the coldest part of the fridge if you're going to eat them in a day or two; it not, store them in the freezer. ft The canned foods—pumpkin, tomato, beans, and such—go into the pantry. I usually mark the date purchased on the top of cans with a permanent marker so I can use the older purchases first.

See book keywords and concepts |  Proponents also point out that stevia has been used legally in Japan since the 1970s as a sweetener for carbonated drinks, yogurt, candy bars, frozen foods, and chewing gum, and as a tabletop sweetener. Advocates say that stevia is inexpensive to grow, harvest, and produce; is heat sensitive; and is an effective flavor enhancer and preservative.
It should be noted that to become a white powder or clear liquid, stevia undergoes a multistep process not unlike that which sugar undergoes, but you can purchase the whole or ground-up stevia leaf, something I enjoy.
CAN YOU TELL ME ABOUT AGAVE? | | High-fructose corn syrup now is found in an astonishing array of processed goods, including soft drinks and fruit juices, as well as condiments, breads, cookies, breakfast cereals, pasta sauces, frozen foods, jams, and jellies.
Food manufacturers made the switch from cane- and beet-based sugar to corn-based HFCS because it's far cheaper to produce than sucrose. Not only that, but high-fructose corn syrup is sweeter, is easier to handle during processing, has a longer shelf life, and keeps baked goods soft while giving them a warm, toasty color. | | In fact, prepared, processed foods, frozen foods, and baked goods accounted for more than 40 percent of supermarket sales in 2000. (Produce generated a mere 9 percent of sales.)
Moreover, many people gravitate specifically toward ostensibly "healthy" quick snacks such as protein bars, which are often laden with high-fructose corn syrup and/or other sweeteners. Or maybe they'll buy some low-fat "goodies" that are likely filled with sugar and not even necessarily low calorie. Or they'll grab quickie-carb crunchies that, 9 times out of 10, have used some kind of sweetener. |

See book keywords and concepts |  Symptoms may also be triggered by eating frozen foods, iced drinks, or watery fruit that is overripe. When the appetite returns there is a temptation to eat small amounts often, rather than large meals. There may also be a desire for warm, sweetened milk, which soothes digestive discomfort and uneasiness.
Nux vomica: To ease gastritis that has been triggered by a combination of high stress levels combined with too much junk food, alcohol, coffee, and cigarettes, use Nux vomica. |
Jack Challem
See book keywords and concepts |  Even when they're locally owned, they tend to rely on a lot of processed, prepackaged, and frozen foods.
As a general rule, breakfast is usually the safest meal, but you'll have to order eggs and avoid hash browns, toast, muffins, pancakes, waffles, and other rich sources of carbohydrates. Ask whether you can get your eggs poached—cooked in water instead of with oil—along with a side of fresh fruit. A second choice is an omelet, again with a side of fresh fruit. Canned fruit almost always has added sugar or high-fructose corn syrup. | | Canned foods tend to have a higher glycemic index—more of a sugarlike effect—because sitting in water breaks down much of their fiber. frozen foods are acceptable when fresh ones aren't available, but read the Ingredients list carefully, and reject foods with unhealthy ingredients.
Food-Philosophy Principle #4. Don't Take Food for Granted
Over the last hundred years, many nations have made great strides in sanitation and hygiene, resulting in a food supply that is mostly free of disease-causing bacteria. |
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts | | For more than a year now, I've been recommending Amy's Kitchen as a source of quality, organic frozen foods made without yeast extract. As you may recall, yeast extract is a natural-sounding additive that food companies use as a flavor enhancer replacement for MSG. Yet it contains free glutamate, and for many people, it has the same effect as MSG -- migraine headaches, chemical taste enhancement and harm to the nervous system according to doctors like Russell Blaylock, author of Excitotoxins.
Editors' Note: This story has been updated with new information from Amy's Kitchen. |
J. Douglas Bremner
See book keywords and concepts |  Most of the oversalting in our system comes from the preprepared, packaged, and many frozen foods (with the exception of flash-frozen fruits and vegetables) we eat as well as from restaurant and fast foods. Food makers put huge amounts of salt in their food to enhance flavor, to hide the lack of other natural flavorings, and to act as a preservative. Look at any food label, and you will see astronomical percentages of salt in food, often more than 25% of a serving. The best way to avoid excess sodium in food is to buy fresh, unprocessed whole foods and prepare your own meals. |
Andreas Moritz
See book keywords and concepts | | The foods that have the most acidifying effects in the body include milk, dairy products, meat and its products, tinned or frozen foods, white bread, pasta and pastry made from bleached and refined flour, refined sugar, alcoholic beverages, diet beverages, soft drinks, sports drinks, packaged fruit juices, preserved foods, processed breakfast cereals, chocolates, ready-made cakes, potato chips (crisps), hydrogenated oils and fats, and most fast/junk foods. The exaggerated ratio of daily-required vitamins may apply only to the severely undernourished person. |

See article keywords and concepts | | Our present view of Amy's Kitchen is that the company is making some of the highest quality organic frozen foods on the market today and is clearly a superior food company with a desire to meet the stringent quality demands of informed consumers. We only published an article critical of their use of yeast extract because we feel Amy's Kitchen is a company worth encouraging to clean up their labels. |
Dr Ron Roberts
See book keywords and concepts |  Considering the huge and ever-increasing consumption of aerated drinks, alcohol, canned and frozen foods in general, fried snack foods, potato chips, french fries, ice cream, hot dogs, hamburgers, chocolate and candies, is it any wonder that the health and well-being of Western societies is being affected? Add to this the increasing use of refined white flour rather than wholemeal, salt, sugar, tea and coffee, and the picture gets gloomier.
Food is being heavily refined, and preservatives and artificial colourings added. Nutrients are lost from the refined end products. |
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts |  I talk about honest companies like Amy's Kitchen, making organic frozen foods that are healthy and don't contain chemical additives, or Peaceful Planet, making wonderful rice protein energy shakes. Then there are companies like Lydia's Organics -- a small outfit making the best portable health food I've ever seen -- and Food for Life, which makes Ezekiel breads, tortillas and cereals.
There are probably hundreds of other companies I've mentioned or covered in my articles and reporting. |
Mike Adams, the Health Ranger
See article keywords and concepts |  This is a company that uses no yeast extract, and yet somehow manages to create delicious and healthy frozen foods. It's a company that has mainstream distribution and that does an honest job of making natural – and frequently organic – foods that simply don't contain any of these dangerous additives or other undesirable ingredients. The company is Amy's Kitchen.
You can find the foods made by Amy's Kitchen in distribution in upper-scale grocery stores and health food stores all across the United States and around the world. Their web site is www.Amyskitchen.com. |
Mike Adams
See book keywords and concepts |  This is true for several reasons:
If you purchase frozen foods that are meant to be fried at home, you will find that virtually all of them contain hydrogenated oils. This is done in order to make the batter actually stick to the food so that it doesn't slough off during the frying process. But it's bad news because even if you use a healthy frying oil at home - such as olive oil - you can't avoid eating the hydrogenated oils contained in the batter into first place. |
Jeffrey M. Smith
See book keywords and concepts |  This was exhibited in the UK in 1998, where the head of Iceland frozen foods sparked a revolution. After receiving several letters expressing concerns about GM foods, the company's chairman Malcolm Walker decided to find out what all the fuss was about. After learning about the issues, he ordered that GM soy and corn be removed from the company's house brand. Brochures denouncing GM foods were handed out at his chain of stores. Within half a year, the rest of the UK food industry followed suit. Executives from other chains acknowledged the influence of Iceland frozen foods on their decisions. |

Many people are allergic to sulfites. The types and severity of reactions to sulfites in sensitive individuals vary, and may include breathing difficulties, anaphylactic shock, severe headaches, abdominal pain, stuffy and/or runny nose, flushing of the face and a "hot flash" feeling, diarrhea, irritability, and/or feelings of anger. |

If lunch means dining out—or perhaps fast food—see Chapter 8 for healthful choices.

See book keywords and concepts | | Thaw all frozen foods, especially meats and poultry, in the refrigerator, not at room temperature.
• Eat hamburger and other meats only if they have been cooked at least until they turn brown. Meat or poultry that is even a little pink in color may still harbor bacteria. To ensure that all bacteria have been destroyed, it is best to cook meat until it is well done.
• When preparing a chicken or turkey with dressing, do not stuff the bird until you are ready to put it in the oven. |
