Botanical Orders for Mexican, Latin, Spanish, Soul, Carribean, and African Days
      Advanced Level of Diet on Miryai Mt.
      In the Living Gods, Let the hallowed Light of Transcendent Truth be praised. Let the Sweet Mystery of Miryai awaken in the heart of hearts.


     The Foods listed below are those associated with the first of five rotational days. They can be used to construct a Mexican, Latin, Spanish, Soul, African or Carribean Cuisine and menu. (In order to adhere to the principles of rotating foods in ones diet, it is important not to add foods not listed below on one of every 5 days. To keep a balance between the 5 food groups of earth, water, fire, wind and zephyr it is important to eat an equal amount of food from each group. These factors create some challenges, especially when trying to create a specific cuisine such as Japanese, but it is possible as the 3 menu examples below will show.)

    MEXICAN FOODS GROUPED BY MEAL & BOWL
    BOWL CONTENT for VARIOUS MEALS ON DAY 4 (Mexican Cuisine)
    (Foods in Parenthesis are from other Bowl Categories & Should Not Exceed 49%)

    The meals and  times outlined below are suggestive only. They are restricted to 2/5 of the day, leaving a 14 hour fasting window. The two 5 hour periods have different protocols. One is for fattier foods and non starchy carbs like salads, stir fries, avocados, flax oil, tofu, garbonzos. The other 5 hour period is starch heavy, with little added fats. The order of their observance depends upon the time of day most energy is needed. If heavy work or exercise is in the morning, then the starch period is observed in the morning, if more energy is needed in the afternoon then the fattier block of time is in the morning and the carb heavy meals are moved to the afternoon. (Underweight individuals might want to mix fattier meals with starchy ones, but normal or overweight individuals should keep them as separate as possible.) 

    The following is part of 5 Cuisines that contain a 1892 calorie average over 5 days when using the traditional Oryoki bowl size (or 2365 when rotationally doubling meals, or 2516 calories in 33% larger bowls)

COLOPHON: This grouping of edible plants was made by me, Yesai, on Miryai Mt. in late 2021 as a revision of the outdated Chinese 5 Element system. It was made in an attempt to develop a balanced dietary program based upon the realities of modern botanical classifications and on practicalities of growing, 
processing and preparing one's own nutrient dense food. It was formulated in partial response to the quote of Bardaisan about the need to balance the five types of food as well as in an attempt to modernize and improve the Five Element system encountered in traditional Chinese medicine.

Peace to all....
