Dr Sebi’s diet plan to be healthy

The “approved foods” list for the Dr. Sebi alkaline diet consists of alkaline-based fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, seeds and other plant-based foods that purportedly strengthen the cells (otherwise known as “cell food” by the brand). Additional diet rules, such as drinking a gallon of natural spring water daily and avoiding alcohol, serve as guidelines on how to navigate this eating pattern properly.

Approved foods include:

• Fruits, such as apples, figs, dates, elderberries, berries, pears, plums, peaches, mangoes, olives, soursop, cherries and plum tomatoes
• Vegetables, such as kale, chickpeas, mushrooms, avocado, cucumbers, okra, squash and zucchini
• Grains, such as quinoa, spelt, amaranth, wild rice and rye
• Nuts and seeds, such as hemp seeds, brazil nuts, sesame seeds, walnuts and raw tahini butter
• Plant oils, such avocado oil, grapeseed oil, hemp seed oil and uncooked coconut oil
• Herbal supplements, such as hemp extract and herbal teas (i.e., elderberry or ginger)
• Spices, such as basil, oregano, onion powder, pure sea salt, thyme and pure agave syrup

Additional diet rules are as follows:

• Only eat “approved foods.”
• Drink one gallon (3.8 liters) of spring water each day.
• Take branded supplements an hour before taking other medications.
• Avoid animal or “hybrid” products (foods that “did not evolve themselves” and instead have been bred over time, such as potatoes, kiwis and beets).
• Completely avoid alcohol.
• Refrain from eating wheat and replace it with “naturally-growing grains” that aren’t leavened with baking powder or yeast, such as quinoa and spelt.
• Don’t cook with microwaves to avoid “killing” the nutrients in your food.
• Stay away from seedless or canned fruits.
• Consistently follow this diet indefinitely to see healing results.

According to recipes on the brand’s website, a Sebi-approved menu plan may look like:

• Breakfast: Avocado and chickpea toast
• Snack: Baked or raw apple slices
• Lunch: Quinoa and kale salad
• Snack: Cucumbers and guacamole
