Health & Nutrition

Through the (SAD) standard American diet, which is processed, high in sugars and with unnatural chemicals, we are eating products- not whole foods. The consumption of these products are yielding dis-ease and the body does not know how to digest or absorb these products for wellness. Processed food, alcohol and drugs are addicting. We have known this since the 1960’s.

As an example:

If we say ” I have got to have my sodas, bread, cereal etc. Now and eat it multiple times per day”, this is an addiction to a substance.

We are again at choice to select organic, grass fed, pasture raised, wild caught, meats, fish and seafood’s.

We are again at choice to select organic low to no starch vegetables and fruits that are in the low glycemic index as found online.

Since I was given a diagnosis of pre-diabetes around 4 years ago, I have been in my own research and testing to reveal what works for wellness and lifestyle transformation. Today my A1c result is in normal range 5.6 without medications.

I am finding ways even with my budget as a senior, to purchase whole foods.

I include movement, quieting my mind and opening my heart as a simple lifestyle that follows nature’s way living.

A Healthy Change to Whole Foods

A healthy change into whole foods requires detox from processed foods and alcohol. The steps I use are:

DETOX 30 DAYS:

Consciously remove all products, processed foods, and alcohol from your environments and home. NEXT replace with your choice of Keto or Paleo.

CHOOSE KETO or PALEO SHOPPING LIST:

Purchase, start and keep with whole foods for all snacks and mealtimes. Then continue your choice .

FASTING:

Continue in the Keto or Paleo regiment of whole foods, then SLOWLY start short fasting periods in the week, that gradually build into no snacks, 2 meals per day, and eventually a longer fasting window from your last meal of the day to your first meal that following day.

Fasting Benefits

Your Life and Happiness are indeed Priceless!!!

Here are some of the many benefits of Fasting that often bring on a smile:

Improves leaky gut

Desired weight loss

Breaks cravings of processed foods

Restores neurochemical homeostasis

Reverses Diabetes

Increases positive self esteem

Decreases pain
