People need to learn to eat for their body instead of their taste buds. Of course a pizza tastes better to most people than broccoli, but that taste sensation only lasts a few seconds and is often followed by a long period of "crashing."
When you eat food for nutrition you will feel great, look great, and best of all you will be healthy. And to be honest, once your body gets used to eating nutritious food, (like it is designed to) you will start to only want food that is good for you.
Even if you are obese or just eat a bad diet it is never too late to start putting food and nutrition together. Below are some quick and easy ways to introduce food and nutrition into your lifestyle.
You Don't Always Have To Eat The Same Thing
Many people will try to eat nutritious food, but their efforts will die off after a few weeks or months as they get tired of "eating the same thing." Of course the same salad or bowl of fruit everyday is going to get boring, but there is no reason you can't change it up or add things if you need to.
For instance if you want to change up a salad use different salad dressings, add chicken, tofu, fish, or add different cheeses, and nuts. There are also countless cookbooks that have hundreds of recipes for healthy food.
Did you know that food and nutrition does not only include fruit and vegetables? In my opinion the most important factor with the food you eat is that it is organic instead of processed. So go ahead and eat other foods, such as meat or pasta, just make sure that they are organic.
Organic food contains the natural nutrition that your body needs, while processed food (what you find in the aisles at the grocery store) is only filled with chemicals and preservatives. These chemicals and additives cause massive weight gain and are addictive. This is the sole reason so many people are fat.
Spicy Is Healthy
When it comes to food and nutrition a little spice fits right in. Spicy food is healthy to eat because it increases metabolism, gives you instant energy, and helps cleanse your body of harmful toxins.
I usually put cayenne pepper on almost everything I eat. It doesn't change the taste, it just makes it spicy. Try it and you will see what I mean.
Don't overdo it though. Some people can handle more spice than others so try different amounts of spice to see what you can handle.
As you can see combining food and nutrition is not that difficult. Once you learn how good it feels to be really healthy by eating nutritious food you won't want to eat junk food anymore anyway. Good luck on your journey towards health and wellness!
The reasons for this vital life-saving information not finding its way into mainstream and being kept under wraps generally go like this:
1. The pharmaceutical companies don't want people to know that there are such cheap and natural nutritional therapies available that cure disease. They feel that their business would be severely threatened if the cheap and natural alternatives were well known. (Profits before people)
2. The medical establishment: training schools, Doctors, research institutions... are all heavily sponsored by the pharmaceutical companies who, because of bias or vested interest generally pay little or no attention to nutrition.
3. Because governments rake in very large revenues from the pharmaceutical companies they too have vested interest at heart and don't want you to know about the cheap alternative cures...
4. The media also keeps the true potential of nutrition under wraps due to vested interest: Because their big sponsors, the government and pharmaceutical companies pay them off to do so.
5. Approval bodies such as the FDA (The Food and Drug Administration), the United States set up, comprise a group of individuals who decide what food and drugs are safe to go on the market. Many of these individuals have ties with the very pharmaceutical or food companies they are judging! So any real decisions made from these people will be most likely in favour of the pharmaceutical or food companies.
Much evidence has been shown that these individuals have been biased. It has also been shown that some of those who were not tied to companies during the time of the decision-making were later on. For example, some individuals who had been on the FDA later became appointed on the board of directors of the pharmaceutical companies.
The corruption and dog-eat-dog world continues in the wave, shape and form of the food industry where making bigger profits is also favoured over the more healthier option. This time, rather than food being underestimated or ignored, it is given a bad name. Because of the above point 5, the approval bodies have been known to allow many foods that are not healthy for us to get on to the market.
Over the years, the number of corporate back-handers to corrupt individuals has ran into incomprehensible millions...
The media also keeps the true potential of nutrition under wraps due to vested interest: Because their big sponsors, the government and pharmaceutical companies pay them off to do so.
