SEL Plan

Phase 2 Foods

After 2 to 4 weeks on Phase 1, you can start adding the foods in the left column back into your diet.

 

Continue to eat a variety of foods and eat sensible portions. Calories do count.  This list is subject to change as I continue to learn more about eating for good health.

Continue to enjoy all foods in Phase 1, and you can add the following foods back into your diet

 

DAIRY—MILK AND MILK PRODUCTS

 

You can add another serving per day of dairy products, including soy “dairy,” for a total of 24 oz. daily

 

VEGETABLES

- Beets

- Carrots

- Parsnips

- Pumpkin

- Rutabaga

- Sweet potatoes

- Turnips

- Yams

All of the above are root veggies except pumpkin. Root veggies are higher in starch than other veggies. The addition of fat with these can slow down the rate of digestion.

 

FRESH FRUITS

Eat 2 to 3 servings daily, and eat the sweeter fruits in moderation

- Apple

- Apricot

- Banana

- Grapes

- Guava

- Kiwi

- Mango

- Melons except for watermelon

- Peach

- Orange

- Papaya

- Passion fruit

- Pear

- Plum

- Pomegranate

- Tangelo

- Tangerine

 

CANNED and FROZEN FRUITS

- Canned fruit on the above list that is water or juice packed, only if drained and rinsed; however, fresh is better as it has enzymes (enzymes are destroyed by the canning process)

- Frozen fruits are okay as they retain enzymes during the freezing process

 

DRIED FRUIT

Eat in moderation, and only if there are no added sugars

- apricots

- figs

- prunes

- other dried fruits without added sugar—read labels for sugar content

See product label for serving size.

 

GRAINS and OTHER STARCHY CARBS

All grains should be eaten in limited quantities, and preferably with no added sugars of any kind, and at least 3 grams of fiber per serving as listed on the product's nutrition label:

- 100 percent whole wheat and whole grain breads

- Sprouted breads (such as Ezekiel and Essene breads)

- Amaranth

- Barley

- Buckwheat

- Kamut

- Kasha

- Millet

- Oatmeal (regular only)
