Do you realize you are what you eat?

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

It’s really amazing how many natural things are available to help us be healthy and keep us healthy. Yet this information is not widely known by the general public. Most doctors don’t tell you. The drug companies sure won’t tell you. You very seldom ever hear it or read it in the press either. I never became as conscious of my health or my wife’s health until she was diagnosed with breast cancer about four years ago. Even though we believed we were eating healthy we didn’t realize that some foods we were eating were not very healthy to eat. That’s when I met a naturopathic doctor and got more advice. I even started doing some research on my own too.

Strawberries and raspberries contain a compound called ellagic acid. One of the best cancer fighters Mother Nature ever created. When eating these fruits this compound enters the bloodstream to help vanquish cancer cells on contact. By eating a bowl of oatmeal for breakfast or eating pears you can regulate your cholesterol. They can help keep your LDL (bad) cholesterol below 130 and HDL (good) cholesterol above 65. So I guess the only thing to do is to keep preaching good health ideas to people I know and meet. I’ll also continue spreading healthy information in my bimonthly newsletter and the articles I write and submit to directories. Hopefully someday if there are enough of us preaching healthy information wherever we can we will eventually convince people that they truly are what they eat.
