  1. Just wondering if I'm missing the "print" button on this post – I would love to print it out and hang it up for my my kids to see and I noticed that you replied you were going to do one of those buttons. It is so very much appreciated!!

    1. Jessica, No there hasn’t been one added yet. What we’re doing instead is creating a poster than can be downloaded. Check back in a week or so for the poster. 🙂

      1. I just read this post for the first time, but I don't see a print option or a poster to download. Is it available somewhere else?

  2. better buy organic cause anything else is far from healthy but even organic fruits are gas ripened with ethylene (gmo corn) and anything in a package has some sort of gmo in it. the only healthy snacks are anything you grow yourself.

    1. lol well if we all lived thinking every single thing is bad for us, then i guess we would all starve. it's safe to say that any of these recipes would be healthier than that bag of potato chips we sometimes go for, and i'm pretty sure that's the point of this post.

      1. Farmer's markets are an excellent place to go to shop for fresh fruits and vegetables, etc. They usually have a lot of different things – even arts and crafts or entertainment thrown in too. You can go have fun, get BETTER fruits and vegetables, and help LOCAL farmers out as well.

  3. Be sure to identify that the foods should be organic and/or GMO-free. Especially foods like corn – unless it's organic, is genetically modified with round-up ready chemicals. 🙁

  4. While I think the intention here is great, I have an issue with stating this is "clean" eating. The definition of clean eating means that what you put in your body is natural. The reference to "skinny" anything (peanut butter, ranch dressing, etc.) is far from clean. Please beware and read labels. If you don't recognize something that is on the label – as in you can't actually picture what the food ingredient is, then it's not clean. It's not just about removing high fructose corn syrup and processed sugars from your diet (you should!), think about removing all of the additives and preservatives as well. Read your labels, please!

  5. To print- simply highlight to copy and past. Paste the copy onto an email draft, then save/send/ or print. You can even highlight and copy the photos, or the entire article with photos, and transfer the same way.

  6. To add to my previous comment, you can label and save the recipe drafts in a separate e-mail folder if you don't want to print it out.

    1. Deanna, Multiple allergies are a big challenge to manage in any way of eating, but it can be done. If you can incorporate fruits, nuts, and veggies that you are not allergic to and make substitutions that is always good.

    2. One does one's own research for one's specific needs instead of being mad that someone didn't do it for you. There IS a certain amount of responsibility in one's health.

  7. I would love to print it out and hang it up for my my kids to see and I noticed that you replied you were going to do one of those buttons. It is so very much appreciated..!

  8. I am on blood thinners as 100’s of thousands of us are. Green vegetables and green fruits make my blood very thick and I almost died of blood clots in my lungs. Many recipes have green veggies in them. I cannot find recipes with green excluded. We can have head lettuce but no other greens. Do you know of any resources who print recipes that people who take blood thinners can use? Thank you for any help you can give me.

    1. I am also on blood thinners. The dosage of your medication can be increased by your doctor to compensate if you tell him you are eating more greens. It is not a problem at all. Then, you go in regularly to have your blood levels tested until the dosage is right tor you.

  9. IS THERE ANY WAY TO PRINT OUT THE 50 CLEAN EATING FOOD ‘S ON YOUR WEBSITE?

    THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU

    JETHRO PAUL RAYMER

  10. Hello, I was wondering where the print button was. I read the post that you added it, I just can’t seem to find it.
    Thanks

  11. Velvet
    Hi there! I’m all new to this asking questions on the phone. Lol I’m wanting to get my weight off and would the 30 day cleaning over haul be the best book to order to start off with first? I would really appreciate your advice.
    Thanks
    Velvet

  12. There sure are a whole lot of people telling you how to write your posts, and whining and crying about about things that only pertain to them. I just wanted to say thank you very much for putting this list together so that we may pick and choose what suits our needs and wants. We are ADULTS (or should be) if we want to buy non-organic or organic, eat something we are allergic to, not read labels for added ingredients, etc it is our choice not yours. Why do these people feel the need to be so ungrateful? THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE WORK YOU DID WITH THIS LIST!!,
