IMPROVE YOUR WELL-BEING AND REDUCE
THE RISK OF 'LIFESTYLE DISEASES' - EASILY!

This site won’t try to sell you the latest miracle cure or weight-loss fad, nor are we about to launch a book or a TV series. (That said, you can buy our handy tracking chart to help you on your way to healthier eating, but even this is purely optional.) You're also not expected to observe any strange biotic (or is it bionic?), organic, ethical, religious or lunar-synchronised lifestyle – so you won't need to live on a diet of linseed and seaweed, and dance thrice around the haystack clockwise in the light of the full moon.

This is just sensible advice firmly based on facts, translated into plain English: easy to understand and easy to apply, every day.

Not only that, but unlike so many diet guidelines which focus on telling you what not to eat, SpectralEat takes a much more positive view of things and tells you what you want to eat in order to maximise the beneficial effects of your food intake.

You don't even have to be a super-fit health food fanatic – anyone with an interest in maintaining and improving long-term health through everyday food choices can make a big difference to their health and well-being by applying these simple guidelines. Starting today.

Three Step Approach

This site has three main sections.  Each section works on its own, and just by following one set of guidelines you’ll be well on your way to improving the nutritional content of your diet.  However, by combining all the sections you will maximise the beneficial impact of your diet.  The way it ideally works is like this:

1. Eating 'five a day' (or more) of fruits and vegetables is a great way to improve your overall health and well-being.
2. ...but if you can also ensure that those five are of different colours (ie. following also the ‘spectrum’ guidance), you are also maximising your intake of various compounds such as flavonoids, antioxidants, etc., which can help in the long run to reduce the risk of major ‘lifestyle diseases’ such as cancer, heart disease and stroke.
3. Moreover, if you also eat daily the other items on the ‘healthy heart' foods list (one item on the list being a generous helping of the same fruits and vegetables as already go in your 'five a day'), you will also be able to lower your cholesterol and blood pressure, and generally help guard against cardiovascular disease considerably – by a whopping 75%, in fact!
   

When you combine all three, ie. eat the ‘healthy heart’ foods, as part of which you eat ‘five a day’ of fruits and vegetables, which come in a range of colours as per the ‘spectrum’ section, you will maximise the health and well-being benefits of your diet. 
And the good news is, it's even simpler to apply than it is to explain!  You can progress one step at a time: start by incorporating any five portions of vegetables and fruits into your daily diet.  Then, once that becomes part of your routine, improve on this by making sure that those five or more portions represent as many colours as possible.  And when that has become second nature to you, shift your attention to the other foods in the healthy heart section.
