You Going To Eat THAT?

For those who haven't done any homework on what is in your food, you are in for a shock. Now you have to have SOME common sense and realise that we can't be 100% perfect eaters ALL the time. But we certainly can make an effort to try and improve. First, educate yourself. Make that time investment and feel better. Fast Food rollercoaster: All fast food is unhealthy but one of the worst places to take your family to eat (in my opinion) is McDonalds. Although they have tried to remarket themselves into the healthy choice place to eat - they are BY FAR unhealthy. Instead try taking the family to the park with a home packed home made picnic (no prepackaged foods). This way not only do you know what is going into their bodies, they will be getting fresh air & exercise.  A win win. If it is in a box it probably isn't a good food choice. The easiest thing to try and do is by local fresh ingredients as they are in season and look up new fun recipes that you can make with them. It can be a lot of extra work but well worth the effort in the long run. I am a vegetarian (an ethical choice) and at first I thought it was going to be difficult but really it wasn't. I feel better about the choices I am making as well as leaving animals to be animals and not slaughtering them and eating them. The supply and demand for meat is crazy!  Think about Mc D's and all the burgers they sell each and every day worldwide and that is just one chain - then there is A & W, Harvey's, Jack in the Box etc.... Yikes that is a lot of beef (with tons of fillers & hormones btw) Barf, no thanks. Internet sensation and healthy eating advocate The Foodbabe is making huge strides within the food industry. She sheds light on companies who falsify their ingredients list and really is making a difference. She wants us all to know what is going into our food supply and how to make healthier choices. Here is the link to her web site.  It may be overwhelming at first but stick with it and cut yourself some slack. http://foodbabe.com/ Don't eat blindly - know what you are putting into your body.   #clean #choice #eatwell   Do you follow us on Instagram?
