What Would Dr. Sebi Do? 10 Steps to Eating Healthy


Dr. Sebi was a renowned herbalist and natural healer who advocated for the use of plant-based diets to promote health and well-being. His philosophy was centered around the idea that the human body is designed to heal itself, and that a diet rich in natural, whole foods is the key to achieving optimal health. If you're looking to improve your diet and adopt a healthier lifestyle, here are 10 steps inspired by Dr. Sebi that you can take today.

1. Eat a plant-based diet: Dr. Sebi believed that the human body is designed to thrive on a diet that is rich in fruits, vegetables, and other plant-based foods. He recommended avoiding processed and refined foods, as well as animal products like meat and dairy.

2. Choose alkaline foods: Dr. Sebi believed that an alkaline diet is essential for optimal health. This means eating foods that are alkaline-forming in the body, such as leafy greens, fruits, and vegetables.

3. Avoid acidic foods: Acidic foods, such as meat, dairy, and processed foods, can create an acidic environment in the body, which can lead to inflammation and disease. Dr. Sebi recommended avoiding these foods and instead focusing on alkaline foods.

4. Drink plenty of water: Water is essential for good health, and Dr. Sebi recommended drinking at least 8 glasses of water per day. He also recommended drinking alkaline water, which can help to balance the body's pH levels.

5. Incorporate sea vegetables into your diet: Sea vegetables, such as dulse, nori, and kelp, are rich in minerals and nutrients that are essential for good health. Dr. Sebi recommended incorporating these foods into your diet on a regular basis.

6. Avoid hybridized foods: Dr. Sebi believed that hybridized foods, which are created by cross-breeding different plants, can be harmful to the body. He recommended eating only natural, unhybridized foods.

7. Eat foods that are in season: Eating foods that are in season can help to ensure that you are getting the freshest, most nutrient-dense foods possible. Dr. Sebi recommended eating foods that are in season and avoiding foods that are out of season.

8. Avoid refined sugars: Refined sugars, such as those found in candy, soda, and other processed foods, can cause inflammation and contribute to chronic disease. Dr. Sebi recommended avoiding these foods and instead opting for natural sweeteners like agave nectar or maple syrup.

9. Use herbs and spices: Herbs and spices are not only delicious, but they also have numerous health benefits. Dr. Sebi recommended incorporating herbs and spices into your diet on a regular basis.

10. Listen to your body: Finally, Dr. Sebi believed that it is important to listen to your body and pay attention to how different foods make you feel. If a certain food makes you feel sluggish or unwell, it may be best to avoid it.

By following these 10 steps, you can start to adopt a healthier lifestyle and improve your overall well-being. Remember, the key to good health is to eat a diet that is rich in natural, whole foods and to listen to your body's needs.
