Since most Americans are overweight yet malnourished, it’s important to think of food as medicine. Herbs and supplements will come to play an even more important roll in health and wellness as the population becomes sicker from the food chain being contaminated. If that sounds alarmist to you then you need to read this and this. We’ll rely on herbs more for detoxification and healing from the damage done to our bodies by the environment.
If the additives, preservatives, chemicals, and other toxins weren’t enough, many people hardly ever eat fresh fruits and vegetables, healthy fiber, or healthy fats and proteins. All of this combines to create major health problems for people of all ages. Look at the number of reality shows about weight loss–it’s an epidemic.
As part of the full body approach to health, changing what goes in your mouth is second most important step after changing the way you think. In fact, one of the reasons that herbal supplements work so well for so many people is because taking an herbal supplement gives them nutrition they aren’t getting from their diet.
Using food to help heal your body is not difficult, but it can be mentally and emotionally challenging to change habits so persistence, determination, and self control are necessary.
Begin by cutting out as much simple sugar as you can from your daily eating. Sugar is quite possibly the number one cause of most major health problems today. White flour is another item that needs to be cut from your diet. Try replacing it with stevia. Instead of white flour, start using whole grains. Neither table sugar nor white flour has any nutritional value for your body. They’re starches that we eat too much of.
There are healthy proteins and healthy fats in meat, but consider buying organic since there’s no telling what feed lot animals have been fed. Add fresh vegetables and fruits to your meals. Fresh and raw are best, and organic is essential to help stop the build up of excess chemicals and toxins inside your body. Eating cooked fruits and vegetables is fine too, but the raw ones are the most nutritional for you.
