Food is Fuel
What kind of car would you like to be driving?
When I first started driving I'd take whatever beater car I could get and run it until it got to the empty side of empty before I'd take the time and money to put the cheapest gas in it. It limped along for me for a surprising duration of time considering the abuse and maintenance neglect, but eventually it started having expensive problems (which I delayed tending to) until I finally ran it into the ground.
Nobody likes depending on a clunker. What we'd like to have a premium car that is comfortable and dependable and it's a plus if it looks super sleek too. If
If you had an expensive luxury car would you put cheap dirty gas in it? Would you run it until it was on empty and sucking up all the grunge on the bottom of the gas tank?
NO! You'd put the best fuel in possible and refill when it gets to half a tank and take it in for regular maintenance. That way it will look and run good for a much longer time.
So what model are you??
Food is not an enemy it is FUEL. Fad diets, drastically reducing calories, skipping meals, eating refined junk food or artificial diet food is cheap gas. It may get you where you want to go for awhile, but eventually it will start to show in your looks or performance.
When you eat fresh organic clean whole foods that your body was built to process you feel satiated, you are less likely to binge or overeat and you get sick less often and recover quicker.
Run and not be weary, run and not faint.
The natural blessings of living a clean life are a CLEAN BODY a CLEAR MIND and a SPIRIT IN TUNE.
Every body is different. Allergies and Intolerances or aversions come and go do to genetics, lifestyle, environment, thought patterns and coping skills.
Find what works for you. My husband is A blood and does better doing more vegetarian style diet with whole wheat bread that he loves to make, and annual juice fasts.
I'm a type O and his wheat rolls are like my kryptonite!! I get inflamed even looking at them and if I partake I feel foggy and tired and can't seem to wake up fully. I do better with a Paleo style diet and feel energized by a lean and green approach.
Either way or blood type it is important to eat. Start your day with protein to set your metabolism for the day. Be sure to snack or eat small meals about every 2 hours or so. This will keep your metabolism chugging along at a nice pace to burn the fuel for the day.
To get started eating clean cut out processed foods for about a week, cut out caffeine and sugar or any artificial stimulants and then do a 2 week sugar detox so your body can start fresh.
I have a book on TWO WEEK SUGAR DETOX that incorporates Body Mind and Spirit Balance along with toxin flush.
Grow a garden or find a co-op or start a garden swap
Shop the Farmers Market
Eat red meat sparingly, mostly in winter and eat sustainable fish and leaner meats.
(Eat plenty of fresh and raw cilantro to cleanse any heavy metals from the fish you intake)
You will find it actually costs less, produces less garbage and waste and, once you get the hang of it, it won't take long to prepare either. (Plan Menus and do some prep on weekend for quick on the go meals you can grab and go) Most of your waste will be able to be recycled in the garden compost or feed the chickens etc... Plus the biggest benefit is how you will feel eating clean unprocessed food you grow and prepare yourself!
