Have People Given Up?

Why aren't more people concerned with their health? If they were, wouldn't we see more healthy people? Would obesity rates be going up? The answer, of course, is NO. Maybe it has to do with too much information. I think there is so much out there and the way it is marketed to the masses is overwhelming. The other thing is that it is so readily available that you can have basically any information within seconds. So, I think this has a lot to do with American's not knowing what is real and what is not. What to believe and who to trust is a huge issue today.

Please understand where I'm coming from, our society is changing at break neck speed. We are becoming more automated with technology and we are heading for singularity. The speed that technology is advancing has become exponential. So for this reason, I could see it happening sooner than later. I don't want you to think I believe all American's are this way, but it has the appearance it is moving in that direction. You know what they say, perception is reality.

I personally believe a lot of this "mood" has to do with food. If you can imagine what a nation of  healthy people would look like, then you and I have something in common. I have an amazing solution to what ever they are looking for. Actually I have three solutions to help reduce weight, increase athletic performance and improve healthy aging. What I find is that everyone is looking for an easy way out because they don't want to deprive themselves of the simple pleasure food can bring. Even if they know the food is not good for them.

I tell people not to give up hope. I ask them to do me one favor, to dig down deep and find out what is holding them back from taking charge of their health. Of course, that means a change in food consumption. Again, most people won't give up their favorite food, it doesn't matter how bad it is. But there has to be a reason more people don't stop eating the way they do.

Have people given up? Maybe they say, "If I'm going to die, I want eat the way I want to". That is a terrible way of looking at life. For some people there is always an exception. I'm sure you have heard of those people in their 90's that eat bad food and smoke and are just fine. It just seems to me that those type of people are far and few between these days. With the toxins in the air, water and the food supply, it is no wonder we are seeing our children getting sick and contracting illnesses that were not prevalent when we were their age. IT IS THE FOOD WE ARE EATING.

People have not given up, they are just distracted from the marketing companies and the manufacturers who design their products to be addictive by the chemicals they use. One just has to look inside and have a heart to heart with themselves. I did that over 485 days ago and it was the best decision I ever made. Taking control of my health. Please notice the word CONTROL. I now control my food intake and not the other way around. Take a stand, even if it is a small step. A small step leads to another and before you know it you are sprinting to a new level of health. Don't give up, because it's never too late!
