Whole Food Nutrition!

Whole Food Nutrition. Nutrition is the key to life.

If whole food nutrition is important and nutrition is a key to life and I believe it is we need to find out how we make it part of our lives everyday. By what method or means are we going to get the nutrition that we need? How are you going to get the fruits and vegetables you need on a daily basis. Would you like to live on average 14 years longer? I just saw this information online the other day. People who drink moderately, exercise, quit smoking and eat five servings of fruit and vegetables each day live on average 14 years longer than people who adopt none of these behaviors, researchers said. That's amazing! Here's a great question for you are you willing to implement that behavior into your life?

Who really wants to live a long life if you cannot live it healthy. This seems like a fairly new and recent revelation but I hate to admit that, the realization is how important it is what we put in our bodies and also what we don't put in. Everything we put in our mouth effects how this machine called the human body functions and heals itself. How can we expect to live a long and healthy life if we are not getting the whole food nutrition that we need? You put junk in and you effect the performance without question. Have you ever asked yourself if there is relevance between the foods you eat, getting sick and how quick you recover from illness? How about any connection between the foods you eat and your weight? Our bodies are like fine tuned machines and requires a high grade of fuel. If you are not putting the proper nutrition in your body then your body is starving for it. That causes you to eat more than you really need to because your not satisfying it. Here it is in a nutshell: The higher the quality of food we eat, the quicker we recover from disease, provided we are able to digest and assimilate properly. Plus the easier it is to maintain the proper weight.

Now days a lot of the farming is corporate farming or very large corporations involved on large scale. It is no longer the local farmer or a family that has farmed for years. No today it is about doing it on a mass scale and modifying the fruits and vegetables genetically to have more yield. It is not about producing quality of food but quantities of food and not allowing the fields to rest or change the crops every other year which results in a depletion of the soil. Today most of what we eat is pasteurized, preserved or genetically modified. Have very little if any of the vitamins and nutrients we need. I have heard statistics that indicate as high as 80% of the food has at least one genetically modified ingredient. We need living nutrition, living food, whole food nutrition that is able to provide our bodies what is needed at the cell level. If this was happening then there would not be near as many people overweight as there is.

Let me go back to a previous statement: the higher the quality of food we eat, the quicker we recover from disease. Would it be correct to reverse that and say the lower the quality of food we eat, the easier it is to get sick and the longer it takes to recover? So what is the answer? Is it eating raw fruits and vegetables, juicing? Those are great options but difficult to implement in our busy lifestyles. You want to lose weight or maintain your weight then you need to pay attention to the types of foods you are eating the most of.

So now what you ask? In my trek to find out what the options might be I happened by chance some would say but my opinion is I was directed to a family of products.
