Food for Thought

Have you ever looked on the food packets you buy to see exactly what your eating? Can you even pronounce some of those words, never mind know what they actually are?!




The truth is, if you want to be healthy, and especially if you want to lose weight, you really need to stop eating processed and packaged foods. 
If you're eating fresh and whole foods (basically the kind which don't need a label) you won't need to count calories or anything like that. Your body recognises this as food and will digest it accordingly. The problem with processed and packaged foods is that half of these so called ingredients are unrecognisable to your internal systems and therefore will go straight to your fat stores and just keep getting bigger.
This is why many western countries today have around 38% of their population as obese because they don't know any better. People think by buying, low fat and so called 'healthy' packaged meals they are eating healthy, when in fact there is probably no nutritional value at all in these ready-made meals.

Do yourself and your body a favour and keep it fresh....It tastes so much better anyway and your body will thank you for it.

Education is the key.
