An Ideal Diet

The purpose of food is to increase the duration of life, purify the mind, and aid bodily strength. This is its only purpose. In the past, great authorities selected those foods that best aid health and increase life's duration, such as milk products, sugar, rice, wheat, fruits, and vegetables.
Anmal fat is available in form of milk, which is the most wonderful of all foods. Milk, butter, cheese, and similsr products give animal fat in a form which rules out any need for the killing of innocent creatures....Protein is amply available through split peas, dal, whole wheat, ect.
The best food is the remnant of what is offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead. In Bhagavad-gita the Supreme Lord says that He accepts preparations of vegetable, flour, and milk when offered with devotion. Of course, devotion and love are the chief things which the Supreme Personality of Godhead accepts.
Therefore to make food antiseptic, eatable, and palatable for all persons, one should offer food to the Supreme Personality of Godhead.

I am a recent "Cabbage Soup Diet" sufferer, and would just like to warn the thousands of women that are even considering this method to shed pounds to stay far away from it. In a nutshell, I stayed true to its recipe for successful weight loss, and came out of it with health risks and only 3 pounds lost. If you don't take my word for it you can read much more on the origin and effects of the cabbage soup diet at the reference below.
