A FEW THINGS I'VE LEARNED SO FAR IN MY GETTING BACK TO A HEALTHIER WAY OF LIFE .
1.IF A FOOD PRODUCT IS ON TV AND SAYS IT'S HEALTHY MOST OF THE TIME
IT'S A HALF TRUTH , CERTAIN INGREDIENTS ARE BUT NOT THE FINISHED
PRODUCT .
2. IF YOU CAN PINCH MORE THAN AN INCH , YOUR METABOLISM IS OUT OF WHACK
, GET IT RIGHT , THEN THINGS WILL IMPROVE WITH TIME.
3. FOR MANY YEARS I HAVE BEEN USING A BODY CLEANSE THAT CLEANED OUT MY DIGESTIVE SYSTEM , DOES IT MAKE SENSE WE NEED TO GET A WHOLE
CLEANSE TO HELP GET OUR METABOLISM BACK WORKING ,THAT JUST
CLEANSING ONE PART AND NOT THE REST MAY HINDER OUR EFFORTS.
4.WHEN AND IF YOU EXERCISE BE SURE TO EITHER TAKE AN ANTIOXIDANT OR EAT FRUITS THAT HAVE IT IN THEM , TO COUNTER THE FREE RADICAL EFFECT THAT TAKES PLACE IN THE CELLS , ALSO , ME BEING HYPER ACTIVE , THE HYPERACTIVITY IS LIKE EXERCISING .
5.EXERCISE IS NECESSARY ESPECIALLY IN MY CASE AS A TYPE 2 DIABETIC ,
IT HELPS ME TO CONTROL MY BLOOD SUGAR AND BLOOD PRESSURE .
6.STRESS , IS THE ONE THING THAT CAN CAUSE MANY HEALTH SITUATIONS,
EXERCISE HELPS , PRAYER HELPS, LISTENING TO MUSIC HELPS , AND TAKING
SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, JUST FOR A FEW MINUTES TO CLEAR YOUR MIND HELPS,
AND READING HELPS THESE ARE JUST A FEW FIND THINGS THAT BEST FITS YOUR LIFE AND PERSONALITY.
7.EAT CLEAN , MOST OF THE FOODS WE GET FROM THE STORE ARE EITHER
PROCESSED OR ARE LOADED WITH GMO'S , CHECK THE INGREDIENTS , MOST OF THE TIME IF IT'S A LONG LIST IT'S PROCESSED , OR IF YOU DO NOT RECOGNIZE THE ITEMS IN IT, IT'S PROCESSED.
8. LOOK FOR NO GMOS ON A PRODUCT , PUBLIC'S HAS SEVERAL NATURAL AND NON GMO PRODUCTS , INCLUDING BOARHEAD MEATS THAT ARE VERY LOW IN ADDITIVES
I'VE LEARNED ABOUT ALL THIS OVER MANY YEARS , BUT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO
SEE MORE WHEN I STARTED CHECKING MY BLOOD SUGAR AND BLOOD PRESSURE
TO SEE HOW CERTAIN FOODS AND EXERCISE WAS EFFECTING MY BODY .
WE ARE ALL DIFFERENT , BUT IF THIS WILL HELP ANOTHER PERSON TO NOT
HAVE TO GO THROUGH THE EXTREME HEALTH SITUATIONS I HAVE OR KEEP THEM
FROM KNOWLEDGE VERSES TIME FACTORS FOR EXPERIENCE , IF IT JUST HELPS
JUST ONE PERSON , THEN IT'S ALL BEEN WORTH WHAT I'VE HAD TO GO THROUGH .
QUESTIONS TO ASK DAILY TO COUNTER FOOD ADDICTION :
1. AM I THANKFUL FOR LIFE , THEN I WILL PRAISE MY CREATOR?
2. IS MY FOOD I'M EATING GIVING ME ENERGY OR TAKING IT FROM ME?
3.WHY DO I NEED EXERCISE , TO COUNTER STRESS , , GIVE MORE OXYGEN TO ALL OF MY ORGANS SO ALL WILL OPERATE BETTER, AND TO HAVE BETTER CIRCULATION?
4. IS ANY EXCUSE ROBBING ME OF THE BLESSINGS OF LIFE?
5.ARE MY EMOTIONS CAUSING ME TO MAKE BAD DECISIONS , TAKE THEM TO THE LORD , NOT TO FOOD OR A CLOSED WAY OF LIFE?
6. WILL I LET THE JOY OF THE LORD RULE IN MY LIFE , NOT MY WAYS BUT HIS?
7. IS THEIR ANY DOUBTS OR FEARS , I WILL LIVE BY FAITH THROUGH JESUS?
8. DO I WANT YESTERDAYS OR TODAY'S EVENTS TO TROUBLE ME WHILE I REST DAY OR NIGHT , NO I WILL TAKE IT TO THE LORD AND ACCEPT HIS HOLY SPIRIT OF PEACE?
EAT REAL FOODS , HERE'S A FEW THINGS TO AVOID
1, PROCESSED FOODS (WHEN OUR BODIES DO NOT RECOGNIZE THE FOOD WE EAT AS FOOD ,IT IS STORED AS FAT.)
2. SUGAR ; AND STARCHY FOODS THAT TURN TO SUGAR
3. AVOID UNHEALTHY AND LARGE AMOUNTS OF FATS
4. AVOID ARTIFICIAL SWEETNERS (STEVIA IS A GOOD ALL NATURAL SWEETNER)
5. LIMIT AND OR AVOID WHEAT
6.LIMIT FRIED FOODS, ( I DONE MY OWN TRIAL ON THIS WHEN I EAT CERTAIN FRIED PROCESSED FOODS , IT TOOK MY BODY 36 TO 42 HOURS TO ELIMINATE IT . I USED HOT SAUCE TO KNOW WHEN IT TOOK PLACE . SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT , LOOK HOW MESSED UP MY BODY WAS WHEN EATING FRIED FOODS DAILY MY METABOLISM WAS SLOWING DOWN AND I WAS BACKING UP MY FOOD PROCESSING SYSTEM , WOW.
7.DRINK PLENTY OF PURIFIED WATER , IF NOT WATER FLUIDS
(ACCORDING TO WEBMD WE NEED 1/2 TO 1 OUNCE OF WATER PER POUND TO KEEP OUR BODIES HYDRATED , SO FOR A 120 LB PERSON THEY WOULD NEED SOMEWHERE BETWEEN 60 AND 120 OUNCES A DAY . ACCORDING TO THE WEBMD POST YOU CAN CHECK YOUR URINE , WHEN IT'S LIGHT YELLOW OR CLEAR WITH NO STRONG SCENT IT'S GOOD.)
8. EAT PLENTY OF FRUITS AND VEGETABLES
9. THOSE THAT ARE NOT ALLERGIC TO THEM , ENJOY A HANDFUL OF NUTS DAILY
10.DAIRY , 3 TIMES A DAY FOR THOSE THAT CAN
11. AVOID COMBINING PROTEIN WITH HIGH CARBS, (MY WORST HABIT , A SANDWICH , ACCORDING TO FOOD EXPERTS , THIS STORES AS FAT . I WISH I HAD KNOW THIS OVER 40 YEARS AGO , BUT , MAYBE IT WILL HELP SOME OF US NOT TO REDESIGN OUR EATING.)
12. ALLOW 1 OR 2 CHEAT DAYS , ALWAYS SPREAD THEM OUT , TWO DAYS TOGETHER IS NOT A GOOD IDEA . THIS HELPS YOUR METABOLISM TO STAY STABLE.
