Overcoming The Need For "Food"

During my experiment with eating nothing but Isagenix food I realized that it is possible to sustain oneself without eating "food" as we know it. The products are so filling that it makes it so easy to not think about being hungry. I'm putting 20 grams of fiber in my body every day so it makes me feel full.

Other things that I noticed when on this 100% Isagenix food was mental clarity. My energy level is very high and I can actually think more clearly. My sleeping has been amazing with very deep sleep. I think the biggest change is in my thoughts regarding food. I will never look at food the same way EVER again.

When you begin to research the food industry and all that goes into the food that we consume, you start to realize that it is not good for you. The other thing that happened to me was an acute awareness of what I was doing to my body by eating this food. Most people can't get their head around it even though they might know that the food they eat is bankrupt of nutrition and is polluted. As Americans we are conditioned to believing that we have to eat three square meals a day with a certain amount of protein, fat and carbs at each meal. The problem with that is that it is not realistic. I'm pretty observant when I'm out and about and I see what people eat. My awareness is derived from my current view of eating nutrient dense food.

So now that I know that I could eat a steady diet of nutrient dense super food and gain amazing health benefits from eating this way, the next hurdle is the psychological one. This is the one that your brain is telling you that you HAVE to eat food even though you are not hungry. You're at a party or a get together with friends and there is a huge table of food that is before you. You are NOT hungry, but because the food is there you help yourself to something that catches your eye. Maybe there are many items that catch your eye and you begin to indulge. This is where the psychological thoughts come into play. Do you really need the food? If you aren't hungry then why are you eating it? It is because we are conditioned to eat it.

Changing ones mindset is critical for ones health. There are so many studies that have now been done over the last 20 years about calorie restriction. As pointed out in "The Longevity Diet" book calorie restriction is paramount to increasing ones longevity. Less food will create better health, but it is not just less food that is the important point here. It is eating less of the bad food. That is why the Isagenix 100% food is so incredible. It follows the books goal of calorie restriction, but it is packed with nutrients, essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals and enzymes that the body must have to be healthy. My body is working more efficiently because I'm not putting chemicals into it.

I believe Isagenix is really onto something with just eating these nutrient dense foods. The challenge anyone is going to have is overcoming the need for traditional food. That is going to be a tough one for most people, but for the people that can see the benefits now and in the future it will be empowering. Taking control over what you eat and having a system that can make you healthier at the same time. People who eat regular food are getting nothing in return except poor health. Once you get over the ,"have to eat food" thoughts then your journey to better health can begin. YOU CAN DO IT!!! Your life depends on it.
