It is not news that as a society, we are experiencing a rise in health issues that revolve around diabetes, cancer, obesity, heart disease, questionable mental behavior and more. In a culture that gives us access to so much information that can help us reduce the risk for these conditions, we, as a civilized and evolved culture are missing the boat. Are we so brainwashed & anesthetized that we are unable to see how our health is deteriorating, mentally, physically, & spirituality? We see commercials for Pharmaceutical companies who clearly tell us that their products have the ability to alter our minds, inflict havoc on our organs and sometimes cause death.  Then there are the advertisements for recalls that include inferior body part replacements and drugs that have already caused death, organ failure and mind altering consequences.

The above issues do not include the problems we are experiencing due to poor dietary choices. Perhaps that is the subject we should analyze first. Poor dietary choices have caused and inflamed many of our health concerns. Proper dietary choices can resolve or diminish them. While many people know what foods are good for them and which ones are not, the issue may be that they do not understand why. For some of us, this is the reason we repeatedly continue to indulge in tasty however not the best food choices. Often this is because we don’t experience the consequences immediately. Suzanne Sommers stated on The Anderson Cooper Show, (I am paraphrasing), food serves as fuel for our bodies.  We would not put inferior fuel in a high performance car, why put damaging substances in our bodies?? The most valuable vehicle we will ever own.
