For over thirty years, Frank Laporte-Adamski, naturopath and wellness operator, nourishes the intestine, our “second brain” on which 70% of the functions of the immune system depend, with the right combination of foods that promote digestion and even a flat stomach.
The Adamski diet is based on the differences in the speed of food digestion and on a very simple concept: never eat foods with different digestion times together. So eat slow foods with slow foods that can take up to five hours to digest and eat fast foods with fast foods that typically take 30 minutes to an hour to digest.
According to Adamski, the association of slow foods and fast foods generates fermentation and fouling of the digestive tract and causes a number of health problems directly related to it such as acidity, bloating, liver disorders, obesity, constipation, diarrhea, aerophagia and poor circulation. Among the combinations not recommended, there are, for example, pasta with tomato sauce, red pizza, fish with lemon, rice with pumpkin.
SLOW FOODS
All vegetables, animal proteins (meat, fish, cheeses, eggs), vegetable proteins (legumes), soy, tofu, seitan, chestnuts, cereals (pasta, pizza, rice, cereal milk), potatoes, corn, nuts, hazelnuts, olives …
FAST FOODS
All fruit (also dried and dried), fruit juices, yogurt, honey, peppers, tomatoes, pumpkin, curry, paprika.
NEUTRAL FOODS
Eating them together with slow or fast foods accelerate intestinal transit and therefore help eliminate waste and residues. They are neutral foods: oil, vinegar, onions, shallots, herbs, spices, sugar, coffee, tea, dark chocolate, red wine, aubergines, parsley, basil, malt.
The Adamski method aims to free the intestine to put it in a position to be able to do its job well, that is, retain nutrients and eliminate waste.
WATER AND LEMON A MYTH TO BE DISMISSED
According to Adamski, although starting from an indisputable assumption (that is, that lemon is a mine of vitamins, minerals and precious antioxidants), the practice of drinking hot water and lemon in the morning as soon as you wake up can prove to be harmful to the intestine over time. A habit that can have worse side effects, if combined with a coffee shortly after. Fruit belongs to the category of fast foods and should be eaten once a day and away from meals, ideally at snack time, if it occurs at least 4 or 5 hours after lunch and at least an hour and a half after dinner.
HOW TO CHANGE FOOD ROUTINE
“The awareness it is essential for change. Once you are aware of what you want, because what you want is necessary for your physical and mental health, then nothing and no one can affect you. How is awareness trained? With the disciplineSays Adamski. “Over the years, habits crystallize to the point that they seem immutable and trying to change them triggers an inner conflict. To trigger a change, you have to bring incredible patience towards yourself and dedicate yourself to your transformation with attention, will and dedication. How is self discipline exercised? Helping the brain to form new habits ». Adamski teaches to overcome the automatisms that allow the brain to function in energy saving with thoughts and reflections that mislead the automatisms. Gradually, the change will seem less complicated, and an alternative thought circuit will form which in turn will become an automatic, but health-oriented one.
THE REMEDY FOR MISCELLANEOUS
To make up for all those times when you have eaten badly or in a disorderly way, the Adamski method involves inserting the intake of food lubricant into the diet Lubrilax, composed of 90% extra virgin olive oil and 10% of essential oils of fennel, cumin and green anise. The capsule, also suitable for vegans, helps lubricate the intestine and promote digestion. It is taken after lunch or dinner by mixing fast food with slow food or when it is necessary to help the intestine for a period.
