Health organic food and why it is important to buy organic food Over the past 25 years I have been asked thousands and thousands of fitness related issues. Invariably, the most important question is, with their hand patting his belly, how can I lose this? My answer is the same every time. Eat less of the portion size (in each institution), eat more often with protein and carbohydrates combined, and eat higher quality less processed foods.
Eat high quality food on the surface seems easy. No junk food, right. This does no more, we need more information because the quality of the food we eat is at its lowest level. Large food companies have all laced with chemicals and preservatives so it lasts longer so they can make more money. God did not intend for all substances to be changed in our body. Thus, we find that many new diseases that seem to have no cause. Let me tell you what the cause is the artificial sweeteners, artificial fats, chemicals and preservatives that we put in our mouths. We are what we eat.
When you understand that your body is in a constant state of regeneration, "you are what you eat" means something quite different.
Bear with me if this is old info, but it is very important. Every cell in your body is dead and buried in about a year. Your skin, your bones, muscles, organs, and even atoms and cells that make up DNA are in a constant state of degeneration and regeneration. Common sense will tell you that when we put in nutrient quality, the product will be a better quality of regeneration of cells.
It has even been proved that the cells that make up a diseased part of the body as a tumor or cancer are totally dead and gone within 14 months. So if we can take to feed a high quality, reduce our stress levels, and visualize healing, there is a chance to regenerate healthy cells to replace diseased cells. It is a very sensitive issue that I think it is a time and place for western medicine which tends to use pharmaceuticals as a bandage to hide the symptoms of a disease or illness. But I think they should be used only as a last resort, after more holistic approaches have been exhausted. While you are at this crossroads, I highly suggest that you consult a specialist like Deepak Chopra, Toronto (1.800.333.4453)
Is expensive organic foods worthwhile? On the surface, it does not appear that the additional cost and inconvenience of buying most often (because the quality of organic food spoils quickly) is worth. But I ask you, how much it costs to get cancer, or having a heart attack.
It amazes me quite we are so driven that we lose our health to make money and then we turn around and spend all our money trying to get our health back. It need not be this way.
Among the latest medical information from revolutionary holistic practitioners some of the best in the world are realizing that the traditional Western medical professionals have completely missed the boat. And I strongly agree with this new information that has all sorts of evidence showing us that 95% of all illness and disease is the environment. We focus on reducing our own immune system with an unhealthy lifestyle.
Even the American Cancer Society (ACS) is finally admitting that the cancer is 60% environmentally imposed. This means that it is our way of life. This is something important heart disease because the cancer has recently adopted the No. 1 killer of Americans under the age of 85 years.
This information is surprising given that the links of the ACS to the pharmaceutical industry is very deep. Obviously there is more money in treating cancer than preventing it. But even the GBA can not ignore the obvious.
Modern medicine is.
