And if one wants to consume more healthy carbohydrates, consider whole grains. Whole grains are just "grass" seeds found in nature. Seeds and nuts are good for you. They have the basic necessities for a beginning life.
These whole grains would be things like wheat berries, whole oats, brown rice, flax seed, millet, rye, and buckwheat etc. Whole grains are much different than refined grains. I grind mine up in my VitaMix, just before consuming (except for the millet). You can read about this on the internet - they are "night and day" different. Whole grains are even recommended for some people with diabetes. Kind of shocking, huh? But it's true.
Basically, my answer would be similar to Alan's except I rarely consume meat, and I eat lots of healthy whole grains. I suggest that one avoids all those junk foods, especially processed foods with all that sugar - things like pastries, cookies, crackers, cakes, ice cream, sodas, alcoholic beverages, candies, and white bread etc. When one eliminates the bad foods, the good foods remain.
