As I was standing over my vegetables chopping them for a quinuo salad, I started to really look at what I was doing. I was staring at the vegetables and I began to realize that these were sprayed with some kind of chemical. I know what you are going to say, "Jay, why don't you buy organic?" Well if you do your research just because a label says it is organic doesn't mean it hasn't been treated with something.
Don't get me started on the FDA and their rules. You know like the menus for restaurants with over 20 locations , they have to label the menus with the calorie count of each item. Any idea what that costs the company to do? I read it cost the restaurant owners about $30,000. But, I digress, don't be fooled by the label if it says organic because according to the FDA, the product has to have one component organic to be called organic. Now the FDA wants to have all supplement companies go through hoops in order to sell their products. Yet over 300 people die everyday from legalized medications. I don't know the exact statistics on the number of deaths from natural ingredients, but I think it is NONE.
My point is that my eyes are wide open now. Since I have taken responsibility for my health I have become aware of little things that most people take for granted. Going shopping in a grocery store can be shocking if you are aware. Most of the food there is processed and polluted. Imagine walking down any isle and picking up any product and there is a warning on the label that says, "POLLUTED. THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS HARMFUL CHEMICALS THAT CAN CAUSE CANCER AND OTHER DISEASES." Would you still put it in your cart? Well that is what you are doing every time you go into a supermarket. When you start to become aware of these facts you then have what's called "a choice".
That is correct. Everyone has a choice whether to eat these processed foods or find an alternative. I happen to have found an alternative that works for me. People often ask me if it would work for them? That really depends on your commitment to getting healthy. Are you serious about it or are you just saying it. I understand because I have been there. I wanted to "FINALLY FEEL GOOD" so that meant having to change the way I ate and what I ate. I began eating nutrient dense super food that gave my body what it actually needed instead of fluff and empty calories. The biggest thing is courage. Having the courage to change the way you eat is critical. Once you break out of the bad habits, and it takes about 30 days, your world will begin to change for the better.
It's ok if you can't stop eating hamburgers, french fries and steaks and food laced with fat and chemicals because that is your choice, and remember we all have a CHOICE!! If you are ready to choose a healthy option then please contact me today. I get no greater pleasure than to help someone stop eating junk food and begin eating real food with nutrition.
