Miryai Diet and Edgar Cayce
Gnostic Practices of 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 Edgar Cayce diet as found in his numerous readings has some affinity with the Miryai Mt. diet. He had two versions of his diet, one which included very small portions of some meat which he gave to meat eaters, and another plant based one that he outlined for the few non meat eaters who crossed his path, usually Theosophists. He spoke of the meat free diet as being a higher path but did not seem to encourage it much among meat eating seekers. This is problematic for ethical vegans but not insurmountable. 

In both versions of his diet he stressed local foods, 80% alkaline fruits and veges to 20% acidic beans & grains, 10% fats. 10% protein (beans, etc). He said, before soy options were really available, that the best substitute for meat was soy beans. He spoke of soy milk as being better than cows milk, at least for most. He said milk free coffee was healthy to drink, and tea. He was against carbonated drinks, beer, beef, pork, sugary sweets, white pasta and flours, cheese, vinegar, cane sugar, white rice, fried foods, and imported foods from far away. Here is a basic outline of his oft repeated menu:
 

• Citrus (or oatmeal and fruit) for breakfast with coffee. He said coffee should never have dairy in it. He warned against cane sugar , saying very small amounts of beet or brown sugar was okay in coffee. He suggested steel cut oats cooked two hours 3 or 4 times a week, with or without fruit in it. He mentioned that oats could be substituted with a whole wheat based gruel, or corn cakes.  The other days he suggested grapefruit without sugar on it, or grapefruit juice plain or with added lime juice or orange juice with added lemon. He was adamant that citrus never be mixed with starches, the only exception being a little whole wheat toast a bit later in the morning. 
• 2 oz carrot or other vegetable juices could be drunk any time of the day. Pineapple juice, tomato juice also. Along with 3-6 glasses of water.
• He stressed the importance of raw salad with olive oil for lunch (or fruit salad). Lettuce, tomatoes, celery, peppers, onions, radishes, cucumber, cabbage or any vegetable that could be eaten raw. Cooked peas or beans could be added. A large bowl of fruit or vegetable soup could be substituted occasionally.
• dark rye and 1 oz red wine afternoon snack (or 10 almonds/10 raisins/dates), 
• The evening meal was always steamed vegetables for dinner, and just vegetables for non meat eaters. (He stipulated 1 underground (carrot or potato), to 1 legume, and 1 or 2 leaf like kale or collards). He also suggested sweet potato and squash. He often emphasized that only the skin and outer parts of irish potatoes be eaten, but this seems to have been because of the glycemic index of white russet meat. (Use of blue potatoes or sweet potatoes would allow for more of them to be eaten in the evening.)

Corn or brown rice or whole grain breads were allowed as long as they were not white rice or white bread or pasta. Rice was allowed several times a week, a 64 old woman was told the proper amount of wheat bread for her was 6 ounces a day, along with 4 ounces of pineapple, citrus, tomato juice, 6 glasses of water, etc. One assumes these amounts would be greater for younger larger males. Cayce said avocados are good for everyone and help build up the system. He thought raw apples should only be eaten alone, often in a three day cleanse ending with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. He seemed to indicate that green leafy vegetables were the best of foods for everyone.
