FOOD FOR THOUGHT YALL...GET A PLATE!
#7814893 - 12/30/07 07:19 PM (16 years, 1 month ago) |

So just recently, me and my family began eating more healthy foods. Went to cosco, and got more natural foods, more organic things and watnot. Ever since then, life for all of us has improved tremendously.
I cant even begin to tell you guys how much information is being withheld from society regarding food matters such as what mcdonalds is putting in their burgers, or what safeway puts on their shelves. There is so much the FDA doesnt tells us about foods and what we are putting in our bodys.
For instance, did you know a child that eats two hot dogs a week have a 9% higher chance of leukemia? thats crazy
Do you guys have any clue what meat industries like foster farms and oscar meyer put into their meats? Pesticides and steriods, nitrites and nitrates(which are cancer causing chemicals) and all kinds of SHIT. Do you guys ever even think about what those meats are putting into themselves? like what the animals eat? they are fed HORRIBLY, and disgusting slop, and they graze on grass that has pesticides and shit. well these animals digest all that slop and get slaughtered, proccessed and then its served on your table. you ever heard the quote "you are wat you eat"? im sure you have and IT IS TRUE. its also true for animals.
So check this out, if animals eat all that disgusting mess, they are what they eat. And then us humans eat that meat that has been fed nothing but slop, so you could just call it slop. We are wat we eat so if we eat something thats been nothing but slop fed, were basically were eating slop, you feel me?
Moreover, you guys know that stuff like pesticides and steriods that are in livestock, are carried in the fat cells? So whenever you eat that nice steak, or that pork chop with gobs of fat on the edges, CUT THAT SHIT OFF, before you eat it unless you want to eat pesticides and gross toxins.
These meets tho, are 'dead foods'. Matter fact, anything processed, touched by man and watnot are labled 'dead foods'. Anything that grows from the ground, natural produce and organic food you guys know, are 'live foods'. so check this out it will blow your mind. If you eat a bunch 'dead foods' ie: chips, and ice cream, and meats etc, that promotes death, sooner. We are living humans so it would make sense that if you eat more 'live' foods, that produces life, therefor you will live a longer life! It goes hand in hand. Dead and death, live and life! Eat more of those live foods people, you will live longer. Eating those dead foods constantly like micdonalds will cut you short.
Eating colorful foods, very vibrant in color, like the colors of the rainbow are incredibly good for you and what everyone should be eating. Those bright red apples, those crisp green green peppers, those nice yellow bananas, is where its at.
EXCESS SUGAR
Is an epidemic. Eating excess sugar sets up children for add, adhd, learning disabilites etc. For adults it gives high cholesterol. When you eat sugar it says to the liver "produce insulin" and insulin is what produces cholesterol. Sugar is also CANCER'S BEST FRIEND. When you eat alot of sugar at any given time, your body's production of your natural killer cells to fight off bacteria and toxins, is decreased by 50%! This sets you up for diabetes lady's and gentleman. SODA. A person who drinks an average of 2 pops a day have an increased risk of becoming overwieght/obese by 33%. FOR DIET soda this percentage is increased to 54%! and yea you read that right. Your probably thinking y? Well because the amount of 'asperteame'(fully man made sweetner) they put in diet soda is exceptionally higher because they have to keep the calories out. It makes sense tho, because asperteame is without doubt worse than sugar and they actually put more of that worse element into the diet soda thats supposed to be better for you when its the opposite(excluding calories)......Bethca didn't know that did you?...Sugar tells our body to store fat!
Think about this tho, no wonder why US has all these epidemics. From cancer of all types, to hi blood pressure, to heart disease, ADD etc. Because americans eat so much sugar.
People that have cancer typically lose wieght. These people that see their doctor's to figure a solution to this problem of weight loss become completely misinformed by their doctor. But its not the doc's fault because their field isn'tin nutrition. They will tell them, "eat alot of pie, and cake, and cookies,and ice cream so you can keep your wait up"..... are you joking me? WRONG. You're feeding you're cancer its FAVORTIE FOOD. You're giving you're cancer its BEST FRIEND. Remember when I said eating excess sugar decreases your natural killer cells by 50% (for a period of 4-6 hours)?, well why should you want to go and eat sugar when you have cancer and are doing everything to keep the killer cells up! Also there are cases where a teacher will tell a students parent(s) that they think the child needs ritalin to pay more attention and focus more. WRONG AGAIN. What the child needs is a better diet, I kid you not...its the sugar yall
EXERCISE! DO IT!
Our body is 2/3 water. Inside of us its like a pond lol. I'm sure you've seen those ponds in the woods and stuff with lots of slime and gross debris and the water just never really moves it just sits. Moss and gross stuff grow at will, spread and all kinds of bacteria do the same. These are stagnet ponds. well when you dont excercize for a long time, thats basically what your doing to the 'pond' in your body. You're stagnating it. Ponds that have waterfountains tho, are great! that waterfountain keeps the pond water flowing, mixing and in motion. When you excercise, you are mixing and circulating the fluids in your body, keeping your blood vessels and arteries much more clean, and keeps diseases from accumulating and spreading like that moss and bacteria in the pond. EXCERSIZE IS THE WATERFOUNTAIN FOR OUR POND! It helps our lymphatic system tremendously. The lymphatic system detox's, cleans and filters your blood. The composition of it has fluids traveling UP from feet to chest, and DOWN from head to shoulders, basically both meeting at the heart. When you excercize, the muscle contractions propel the lymphatic system. Excercising is the the best way to get rid of metabolic waist and toxins. ITS ALSO A GREAT STRESS RELIEVER, and burns off those stress chemicals you build up. It's also important for your life in the future.
There are elderly people who can't get out of the bathtub, or bed without assistance. Its because they dont have the strength. Your going to need that strength when your older so its good to condition your body, now.
Lastly, guys, we are humans. We have hands and feet. God did not design us to be couch potatos and sit on our ass flipping the channels all day. Were not meant to be sedentary and sit behind a computer at work all day, not budging. In some circumstances this is reasonable tho(job, important task to do etc). We are meant to move around and use what we got! And it is true if you don't use it, YOU WILL LOSE IT(mobility, flexibility).
Eating healthy tho you guys, will do wonders for your life. When I go through a day eating good healthy food, I always feel sharper and happier. I think clearer and all the subtle symbols and sublyminol signs life hands us everyday just become more apparent to me. It's just makes you feel better also about yourself. Knowing you took initiative to eat healthy. Ofcourse, I cant do that every single day. Matter fact, I wouldnt want to because I LOVE TO EAT! I like good food and if its not healthy, thats fine with me as long as there is consistency with my eating healthy. You guys seriously should consider what you start putting into your body. It will extend your life.
verse/course from "be healthy". dead prez-lets get free
life brings life, thats valuable/
so i eat what come from the ground thats natural/
LET YOUR FOOD BE YOUR MEDICINE, NO EXCEDRIN/
*som'n som'n som'n* cuz i got melanin/
and drink water, 8 glasses a day...cuz thats wat they say (ha)
they say you are what you eat/
so i strive to be healthy
my goal in life, is not to be rich or wealthy/
CUZ TRUE WEALTH COMES FROM GOOD HEALTH AND WISE WAYS/
we got to start taking better care of ourselves/
BE HEALTHY YALL!/
to end this im gonna give a good quote to remember
"Your mind and your body are your temple, and you are what you eat"
I hope, if you read this far, that this informed you will possibly inspire you to take a better approach to what you eat, if you excersize etc. Just take small steps. Those steps will become strides, the strides will become leaps, the leaps will become bounds, and the bounds will inevitably become apart you're way of life 
peace&blessings

yep, i found this out a few years ago. i lived on fast food and then decided to change. i felt much better. i just wish i could stick with a workout routine and completely cut down on candy.
there is a specific chemical in fast foods that is addictive. i read something about it a while back.

I'd say my diet is better than 95% of Americans, and I haven't had a burger in over 4 years, but the next time I'm in Phoenix.... It's Jumbo Jack time!!

Veggies and dip is my favorite munchy food.. helps counteract burn-outs I've been finding lately.
A lot the things you mentioned are things people already know. A subjective explanation like your post is good though because people can't know how they will feel with a healthier diet and lifestyle until they try it and unfortunately ('most universal character trait of humans, fear.. or laziness?'-waking life) it seems such a monumental task sometimes - but hearing that someone else is benefitting from it personally rather than just 'facts' can definitely be motivating.

I'm a vegetarian, and my concentration is much better when I'm in classes than last year I've found.
Don't know if it's due to that, but I would like to think it's at least a part of it.
I've been going for about 8 months, and I haven't lost any weight, which is good, because my BMI, quoted from my doctor, is excellent.
So all I eat is healthy food essentially now. I feel a lot better, though I am tired a lot of the time. I don't know if theres a connection between the two though.

water from tap is no worse for you than much of bottled water. I believe its aquafina that is actually just bottled tap water, that is filtered a few times.
It really isn't bad for you. Its water.
Just get a water filter if you are that concerned. There really isn't much difference in the health effects of different waters, unless yours has a lot of chlorine, or lead.

I have a home distiller, and granted we have some bad water where I live, but if you saw, and more importantly smelled that was left over after each time I ran a batch, you'd, well, you'd know 
But I agree on the bottled water front. Most of that crap is just ran through huge filters and marked up 10,000%.
What a gig. ,

please believe i would be eating steak tonight if i could too!
it was just a brief little essay i decided to type maybe in the hopes of inspiring a few people. those people would tell other people if it started working for them and so on. like a chain reaction.
that is quite sad, unholychild
