Eating to Live Rather than Living to Eat
I probably don't have to tell you to eat the right
food. Most of us have been told that since we were children.
However, much what you were told wasn't exactly right. Toss in a few
billion dollars of media advertising to get you to think you should
be eating other things and we get the health problems we have today.
They have sold your health for a money.
You are what you eat! Regardless of what you think,
what you put into your body affects your health and well being.
Eating poisons will poison you. Some will do it faster than others.
You are lucky if learn quickly that you are poisoning yourself. Many
of these poisons take many years before you manifest obvious
symptoms. Then it could be too late. The damage is done like with
Celiac Sprue.
You are only given one body and it needs to last you a
lifetime. You should take good care of it, right?
If you were only allowed
one car for your lifetime how well would you care for it?
Most of
us probably take better care of our vehicles than we do ourselves.
Only
the best motor oil and change it every 3,500 miles, right?
But you
can always trade in your car, you can't do that with your body.
You owe it to yourself and your loved ones to
learn what the right foods are. Feed your body properly and it will
take care of you for a long lifetime. Treat it poorly and you will
live too short and die too long. We are on the planet for a short
time the way it is.
Live simply so that others can simply live.
Menu of what you can read about in this section:
 | Celiac Sprue -
You must read this article. Celiac Sprue is the inability to
digest gluten. Gluten is found in many foods today especially
white bread. It is abundant in wheat, rye, oats and similar
grains. If you are fighting an illness and are puzzled about
where is came from you very well have celiac sprue. Research
shows that many diseases are actually the result of a gluten
intolerance. Current estimates are that 1 out of every 133
people have this worldwide. It is hereditary. You very well
could be suffering from this. It will destroy your health. |
| The Food Pyramid
- Some years ago the our government published a Food Pyramid to
show what foods we should be eating each day. I learned about it
in grade school. Little did I realize at the time or for years
later that this was influenced by industries interested in
selling products rather than my health. The government Food
Pyramid has been updated over the years, but the story was
pretty much the same. Well, here is a Food Pyramid that is based
on facts not profits. It is important that you know what foods
you need to eat each day and which ones to not eat or eat in
moderation. Read this important information here. |
| Beware of Chemicals in Your Food -
There are all kinds of toxic things put into your foods.
Processed foods are the worse. |
| Avoid
Artificial Sweeteners - There is nothing good about
these chemicals. Worse most of them are actual poisons to your
body that accumulate through continue use. They do not keep you
from gaining weight and even if they did, the trade off is
worse. |
| Don't Eat Red Meat - even if it was
something good for you, the meat you buy in the store is so full
of things not good for you, you should still avoid it. You do
not need to eat red meat to be healthy. There are alternatives
that are far more healthy for you. |
| Foods that
Fight - You digestive system will do better if you don't
eat certain foods together. There is truth to this. Whether you
want to accept this notion or not, please read about this. It
might give you some insight as to why you have certain digestive
aliments. |
| Sugar is Bad News - The idea of
putting sugar in everything was a way to make profits for the
powerful sugar industry back in the 40's-50's. Now it is
everywhere in our food. Sugar causes your digestive system to
not digest your food properly plus it has lots of other negative
effects on your body. Read this even if you don't want to
believe it. Read it for your children or grandchildren. |
| Supplements
- Top quality food supplements are necessary. We can't get the
proper nutrition from our food like we use to. Our world of
today puts huge strains on our health. The only defense we have
is our nutrition and building up our immune systems. We are the
most under attack generation ever thanks what we have allowed in
our environment. |
