What To Eat?

Discover the principles of the Human Ecology Diet.

The food groups listed in our free e-Book are not based exclusively on botanical classifications but, rather, on the groupings that are familiar to a person shopping in a local market. Download the ebook and watch the short video.

The REAL Truth About Carbs

Discover the principles of the Human Ecology Diet.

It is easy to see that the mythologies regarding weight gain and carbohydrate consumption are related to the overconsumption of refined products. One needs to look no further than the cultures that rely on cereal grains as their main food to see the absurdity of the weight gain claim. For centuries the human diet has relied heavily on complex carbohydrate foods such as grains, beans, root vegetables, tubers, seeds, and fruits as principal foods. Our bodies are even especially constructed to eat them.

What About Water?

Water, water, everywhere, and not a drop to drink.

Given the importance of water to our life and the health of the planet we need to be mindful of how we can help in the conservation and sustainability of this precious resource. Even though humans around the world need clean water to survive only 1 in 9 people around the globe get it.

Soil & Health

We believe that soil quality, use and preservation is a fundamental issue in creating a sustainable environment. How we treat the soil is a direct reflection of the choices we make when we buy food for ourselves and our families.

Let’s Keep Fish In The Sea

We believe that ocean quality, use and preservation is a fundamental issue in creating a sustainable environment. Our treatment of the oceans and our attack on the non–human lives we share the planet with always ends badly.

If we are interested in creating a peaceful and healthy planet we need to think more clearly about our actions. Food, along with air and water is our biological link to the planet. Our choices are threatening all life and we must change our habits before it is too late, and TIME IS RUNNING OUT.

Soups Cooklet

Try and prepare your soup from fresh, organic, in season, and ideally local ingredients. Whether your ingredients are coming freshly grown from your own garden or you’ve bought them directly from the farmers’ market, making the connection between the food you eat and your local environment is important. The food we eat is part of our cultural identity. Eating local foods helps produce a more resilient and sustainable future, both for yourself and for future generations.

Cook up batches of your favourite soups from the Cooklet and freeze in portion sizes. You have a plethora of simple creamed soups or more intense bean type stews to choose from.  All of them are very affordable even on a low budget.  You can add some grains to the bean soups, or serve all of them with fresh salad or steamed greens.  Soup, can in fact be a meal in and of itself.

Our free Human Ecology Project Soups Cooklet includes 10 delicious, affordable, whole-food plant-based recipes inspired by cooking traditions from around the world.

Desserts Cooklet

Welcome to the world of guilt free desserts! All the recipes you will find in this Cooklet have passed the test with discerning dessert aficionados. Most people are seekers of sugar. The ‘sweet’ taste receptor is right there on the tip of the tongue and cries out for satisfaction. I want to show you how to satisfy this craving with healthy treats.

These desserts use only natural organic ingredients and have great nutritional value. Some of the recipes are for every day enjoyment, such as the applesauce, the kanten or a few nuggets, others are for special occasions. The day to day recipes are doable even on a low budget.  I personally like the simple apple and pear desserts but when we have family and friends for dinner it is great to make something special

I only use organic fair trade ingredients that are kind to the soil, the planet and do not involve food slavery. Please be conscious of where your ingredients come from.

Freedom From Cravings

Originally this interest has been for cosmetic reasons, with everyone wanting to look like a fashion model or to get into last year’s swim suit. But the larger issues of health are gaining increased attention. Excess weight gain and obesity are very real health problems. Excess weight is a precursor to so many other serious health issues, from diabetes and heart disease to some cancers.

Because this is a serious health issue we need to understand why the programmes, the pills and the products don’t seem to provide consistent and sustainable results.
