We Need to Think More About What We Put into Our Faces!

Below are a couple of links I hope you’ll take the time to check out.  It’s all about the food we put into our bodies and how it can work for or against us.  It boils down to making smart choices and being proactive in the supermarket.  I guarantee (unless you answer to the name Dr. Oz) that’ll you’ll find information that you never knew – a couple of facts that’ll make you sit up and take note.

The first few links feature food expert Michael Pollan.  He researches food the way my husband researches golf.  All over it. His food rules has sparked a lot of conversations in my family.  Conversations about what foods we need to eat more of, less of, and what foods we vow to never buy again.   We long ago vowed to only purchase foods that are “cruelty free,” and I hope that’s something you’ll also commit to.  Mostly, I hope that you’ll take your health extremely seriously and eat foods that’ll promote a longer, healthier, and happier life.

A few of Michael Pollan’s food rules:

• Don’t eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food.
• Avoid food products containing ingredients that a third-grader cannot pronounce.
• Eat only foods that will eventually rot.  Eat all the junk food you want as long as you cook it yourself.
