Eat as much variety as possible from day to day. If you are a mixed type you can select and mix your diet from the Carb and Protein recommendations. Ensure that you have a good spread of the heavier as well as lighter foods.

Using your recommended foods listed above, try to eat according to the following ratios:

• 40%-45% Protein (Proteins = Meat, Fowl, Seafood, Dairy)
• 50%-55% Carbohydrates (Carbohydrates = Fruits, Vegetables, Grains)
• 10%-15% Oils/Natural Fats (Fats = Butter, Oils, Fatty Foods - ex. nuts, seeds, cheese, other fatty foods)
