Mandys’ Nutritional Belief System
“High alkaline foods are just naturally good for us…a well-balanced diet with whole foods such as grains, vegetables and fruits is always the best bet.
Dr. Mehmet Oz (Dr Oz)
"Alkalize your body and live a healthier, more energized, and ultimately more fulfilling life.”
Anthony Robbins, follower & advocate of the Alkaline diet
Raw / High Alkaline
We are huge believers in the health benefits of a diet consisting of high alkaline raw leafy greens, veggies, fruits, grains, & nuts.
An approximate 70-75% proportion of a wide variety of high alkaline mostly raw foods to lean protein and whole grain carbs is the healthiest and most sustainable way of:
- Boosting your energy
- Managing weight
- Shedding fat
- Flushing parasites and avoiding illness
- Protecting against age related diseases
It is the basis behind well known diets such as The Alkaline Diet, The Paleo Diet, Dr. Andrew Weil’s Anti-Inflammatory Diet, The Mediterranean Diet, The Raw Diet, etc.
This is the power behind our delicious and satisfying SALADS
For healthy high alkaline eating that will always power you with the highest nutrients on the planet, manage your weight, and satisfy your appetite
…you don’t have to look any further than a
Mandys Salad.
If you are following the “Alkaline Diet”, click on the Alkalizing Ingredients tab to the left to see the list of the alkaline ingredients & dressings that you can choose from.
…or custom build your salad to comply with any other high veggie/fruit intake or raw-based diet you may be following.
