Easter is a Jewish break that extends for eight days, demanding observers to avoid bread. This is the basic rule. No problem. I don’t remember the last time I ate bread. If this was all that is required for an undIET Passover, I would be fine.
Beyond that, the rules become a bit unclear. You could join ten different families for Easter on the same road and have ten different experiences than what Easter is. Even in this nutritionist with an educated Jewish school, there is confusion.
For example: wheat, barley, rye, word and oats are prohibited, unless these foods are described as “kosher for Easter”. Matzoh, the main symbolic “food” of Easter, is most commonly done with wheat, barley, rye, broken or oats. By confusing, and you can throw gluten -free dreams out the window. Foods can take the approval stamp if the rabbis have found that foods containing these grains are cooked in 18 minutes or less – after that – natural alleviating in the grains would cause food to increase.
Usually, “Kosher for Passover Foods” are the ones that have been made specifically for the holiday under the supervision of a rabbi. Unfortunately, I have not yet encountered a nutritionist and many of the Kosher foods are loaded with hydrogenated and modified vegetable oils, glutamic monastery, refined flour and chemical preservatives.
Rice, millet, corn, beans and lentils are extra foods that are usually banned during Easter. These are forbidden as they can be done and cooked as flour and therefore, they can be mixed with things and bake and rise, so they fall into the bread category.
Quinoa is the savings grace of those who try to observe both gluten and Easter health.
I respect those who choose to follow the traditions of their culture, combining those with the traditions of their families.
The question I have is that the holidays that were intended to celebrate the liberation of the Jewish people from slavery to Egypt, evolved into a holiday full of barrels, sweet wine and service from toothpaste. For eight days to avoid infection (some people have a second set of real dishes for these holidays).
Release yourself from the nightmare of constipation
And just as the Jews were liberated from Egypt, you can also be released from the hours spent on Loo, bunged above the excessive offering of Easter Festival of previous nights or Fried Matzoh’s morning treatment. Keep water and veggie high, Matzoh meal that contains food to a minimum, and you should be good to go … literally.
How to avoid constipation during Easter
- Drink a lot of water Throughout the day.
- Minimize Matzoh hiring. Even gluten -free options are a fiber without fiber party.
- Say no to Matzoh Bagels. A week without bagels – you can do it.
- Eat a lot of vegetables. And then eat more. Raw, steam, baked or mixed.
- Reduce/eliminate sugar. But what about these creepy slices of “citrus”?
- Avoid over -consumption. This is a difficult but you adjust yourself. The amount of food used as Easter dinner is often the equivalent of three meals.
- Pass the rich in sugar manischewitz. You have a little faint water and grape juice between glasses of regular adult wine or skip the wine completely.
- Drink even more water. It’s worth saying twice.
- Above the game smoothie. A great way to get to fiber and water loads, and will be a rejuvenating breakfast option to keep you free from the aforementioned bagels.
Traditions have evolved and some of them may not work. I am sure that this was not how people celebrated these holidays five hundred years ago, let alone fifty years ago.
What if “the way it has always been done”, or the ways in which our families celebrate it, just doesn’t work for our own personal values and philosophies? Then what are we doing?
There we ask: Does this work?
