Do You Know Who You Are?

I came across this quote in Johnny Bowden's book "The 150 Healthiest Foods On Earth".  

"If you are what you eat 

and you don't know 

what you're eating,

do you know who you are?"

                          

                                     - Claude Fischler

I absolutely LOVE this quote because it's so true. We have become so detached from our food source and most of the time we really don't know what we're eating or where it came from. The worst part is most people don't even care.  They eat they're processed, boxed "food" or worse fast food and then wonder why they're tired, anxious, moody, depressed, overweight, bloated or worse, suffering from a serious disease.  It's not rocket science. We know a lot about how the body works and which nutrients it needs to run at an optimal level...unfortunately this does not include Potato Chips and Soda. Sorry Folks. 

I have a sweet tooth and it's a constant battle. Take a look around at your "food" options next time you go to buy gas. It's pretty scary. You have to wonder why you'd want to buy food where you buy your gasoline anyways. Well soon we won't be able to afford to buy gas so that should solve that one.
