Daily record of what blue swayers are eating

Thanks for the suggestion.
BTW, I drink milk and eat milk products. But, no eggs.

Then I would definitely add things like full fat yogurts, cottage cheese and milk to round out those fruit or veg based meals! The animal fat is what has been found to sway blue so hopefully that is good for you while swaying as a vegetarian

Thanks. Will try to add paneer whenever possible.

For smoothie, I will make with banana, peanut butter, dates and milk mix. Sometimes instead of banana will add mango, depends on availability. Is this smoothie recipe okay?

For beans I will add roasted black/white chickpeas in the middle as snacks.

In lunch will add white/black chickpeas or black eyed peas. Should I add this in dinner too? Is this okay? Also for lunch as pulses (lentils) like split pigeon peas or green gram or kidney beans are there daily. Should I add more beans, lentils in breakfast and dinner?

Any other suggestions to improve my proposed diet?

Yes those things sound perfect! I actually think mango is more blue friendly than banana so if you can get mango more easily, I would definitely include that!

I would use coconut oil in cooking as much as possible, although ghee is also excellent!

I don't think you need to stuff yourself with beans - just eat however many to satisfy your appetite. (I can't eat that many pulses without getting stomach upset!) They are good for vegetarian blue swayers but I don't want you to eat so many that you end up making yourself ill. As a general rule I believe full fat dairy to be more blue friendly than beans so I'd get a higher amount of protein from dairy rather than trying to eat beans upon beans.

I was wondering if frozen berries are as good as fresh berries??

There's actually studies that say frozen berries are better nutritionally because they are picked and preserved at peak nutrient values! But I really think that both are fine :P

Thank you very much. I will try to add more of cheese instead of beans.

We are cooking with ghee or coconut oil.

Is there any limit for using spices and chillies?

No limit when using for cooking in dietary amounts - my only concern is if you're having spiced tea, having 1-3 cups a day of some kinds of spice tea will start to have medicinal qualities. (particularly mint and cinnamon teas may sway pink) So I would have any type of spice tea no more than 2-3 cups per week, and then dietary amounts of herbs, spices, and chilis are all fine. You just don't eat enough in cooking to amount to anything.
