Thinking Outside The Box

I know everyone has heard the phrase, "Think outside the box" when describing a new way of looking at things. Well, today I want to use this phrase for thinking a different way of nourishing your body. From the time we are born we are conditioned to eating a certain way and basically grow up thinking about food in those terms.

What if you thought outside the box and looked at feeding your body with nutrient dense food all the time. I know that is foreign to most of us, but what if you did put quality products in your body all the time? After a lifetime of putting traditional food in my system I am able to differentiate between how I felt on traditional food and nutrient dense super food that I am currently on.

I am thinking outside the box when it comes to my food consumption. What started out as a challenge to see if I could go 7 days without eating traditional food has turned out as a lifestyle change. When I first began this challenge I was a little concerned that I wouldn't be eating actual food for a week because I thought that I needed to eat food to stay alive. Boy, was I wrong. What I found was that I was very satisfied just eating nutrient dense food and I released weight. I wasn't hungry at all because of all the fiber and protein that is packed in these products.

So what do you have to do to get to think outside the box in regards to your own health? It boils down to one word...RESPONSIBILITY. You must take responsibility for your own health if you want to achieve optimal health.That means you have to sometimes "think outside the box" to accomplish that. Not eating food as we know it does seem radical, but not if you are replacing it with better quality nutrient dense food. I firmly believe that if our health care system could shift from reactionary medicine to preventative medicine then we would be able to reduce our costs in health care. Imagine not getting a prescription for every ailment or blood tests, x-rays, screenings or any of that.

By implementing the "Longevity Diet" into your lifestyle you can avoid all of the issues associated with illness and disease. The Longevity Diet is a book about calorie restriction and the positive effects of eating foods that are low in calorie and high in nutrition. Our current food supply is the opposite of this program. Our food is high in calories and low in nutrition. No good can come from that because that is when the trouble starts. Be more conscious of the food you put into your body because FOOD DOES MATTER.
