We all need to EAT to LIVE, not LIVE to EAT.
The purpose of eating goes far beyond just feeling full.
It’s about providing optimal nutrition to the cells of the body so that it is able to work effectively & efficiently.
We all need a balance of protein, fibre, carbs, essential fatty acids, enzyme…..
Eat abundantly food that come from plants not manufactured in a plant!
Eliminate or at least limited process foods – they are dead nutritionally and often have harmful additives
Back to the basics – when grocery shopping stay on the outer aisle this is where you will find the live food.
Fruit, veggies, nuts, meats (if possible go with wild /organic/free range , meat from animals raised without hormones & antibiotics)
The more you can eat your food in the Raw form, the more nutrients you will get out of it.
I love doing smoothies & juicing with my family. Not always easy to get a lot of fresh veggies into kids, making it fun and drinkable helps me ensure they are getting enough.
There is a great site YOUNG & RAW , it contains recipes, green smoothie challenge… I have sent many of my clients & friends there for healthy meal ideas.
Health begins with what you put in, eat quality nutritious foods and health will definitely improve.
