Which of all the diets that we see is the brightest and mightiest of
them all? With so many to choose from and so many plans that involve
complicated preparations, combinations, and measurements, how can we
determine which is best for us?
There is one simple answer, and that is to look at the diet that was
originally intended for us from the beginning. It's the one that comes
from Mother Nature. Study after study indicates that the majority of our
sickness, illness, and disease all come from a deficiency in proper
nutrition. That means a deficiency in the nutrients that our bodies
were intended to consume.
In Mother Nature, plant life has thousands of phytonutrients which,
together, provide the fuel to properly run the more than 2,000
physiological processes that are constantly going on in the body.
If you
have experienced memory loss, sinus problems, tiredness, sluggishness,
headaches, lack of focus, decreased sexual drive, or any ailment that affects
you on a regular basis, then there is one easy action you can take to improve
your health that comes at no risk to you. What could be so simple, so
powerful, yet have no side effects?!
The
answer is even simpler than it sounds: fruits and vegetables. The
antioxidants that are found in both are needed to fight all of the pollutants
that we ingest from the air we breathe, other foods we eat, and even the water
we drink or bath in. It's not just a Vitamin that we need, but all of the
nutrients in the fruit or vegetable. The combination of several fruits and
vegetables in our diet each day provides not only all of the different types
of "fuel" for each of our 2,000 physiological operations, but specifically for
fighting all of the FREE RADICALS that are causing a compromise in our health.
The
U.S. is dying a slow death, with life-expectancy expected to be shorter for
the upcoming generation due to the increase in obesity, poor nutrition, and
lack of awareness and action by those who preceded them. We need to take
action now and reverse the course that we're on. We are more sick today
because we can't get food or because we lack antibiotics. Unlike 200 years
ago when dying from the flu, smallpox, and other things that were beyond our
control, it is now those things that are under our control that are killing
us.
Things
such as food additives, preservatives, artificial content such as oils and
man-made fats, as well as other toxins that we use to clean our homes, that we
put on our skin, that we breathe into our bodies. How do we fight such
stresses that put more demand on our body's immune system while keep all
systems functioning as they're supposed to? Eliminating those toxins would be
the first step. Yet, since it isn't practical to think we can avoid or
eliminate all the toxins we're exposed to, it is even more essential in
today's day and age that we add healthy fruits and vegetables to our diet.
And which fruits and vegetables are the best? You won't go wrong with
most, but when it comes to giving the body strength to operate and fight
ailments and the antioxidants that are needed for such, there are a few
that top the list. According to a study done at Tufts University in
Boston, there are two vegetables that top the list. They are KALE and
SPINACH. They each have more than twice as much anti-oxidative power
than the next on the list, which is PRUNES. Next are Blue- and
Black-berries, along with Alfalfa- and Brussel- sprouts.
