Botanical
Orders for Middle
East, Greek, Turkish and Jewish 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 Middle
East, Greek, Turkish and Jewish 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.)

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.)

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2021 as a revision of the outdated Chinese 5 Element system.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....
