What is The Tortoise Diet?

The Tortoise Diet takes the elements of tortoise diets and lifestyles that make them so healthy and long-lived and makes them human-friendly and easy to follow and enjoy!

The key elements to The Tortoise Diet are:

• A large variety of leafy greens – especially wildflowers!
• Foods rich in minerals, the right proteins and the right acids and natural preservatives.
• Avoid foods heavy in "anti-nutrients" such as oxalic and phytic acid and purines.
• Restrict the amount of time spent eating to 20 minutes, twice a day.

You’ll be enjoying fantastic salads, unusual and exotic flavours and you’ll feel better than ever!

The Tortoise Diet is not a hardship diet. It’s fun, it’s fresh and it’s delicious! It will change the way you think about eating – in a good way!
