Keiko says ~ " Do we Eat to live? or Live to Eat? What we eat deeply and radically affects the way we think, feel, and behave. We are what we eat. Food affects every aspect of our being. Food is the physical foundation of our body. When you give your body healthy-vibrant food, it will function amazingly.
Eating is such a pleasure for most of us. Some of us eat to suppress our anxiety or emptiness. Some of us eat anything unconciously out of habit. We must be aware of the vibrationary power of raw live food and how they promote good health ~ because these foods carry within them the vibrant sun energy that nourishes all life on this planet ... The conscious choice of eating organic plant-based food would heal many illnesses, support the growing organic industry, shut down the abusive animal-farming cartels, and eventually reverse much of the damage humans have done to this planet. "
A new report ( Organic Consumers Association ) shows how organics can promote good health. This "Critical Issue Report" describes six ways that organic food and farming can contribute to reversing current trends in overweight, obesity, and diabetes ~ But most importantly, the report explains " why the conscious decision by individuals to purchase organic food marks a critical first step toward a healthier diet and lifestyle... For many people, this first step is the beginning of a series of incremental changes with important, long-run health benefits for individuals, families, and society as a whole."
David H Murdock, has written an article ( Huffington Post ) on 33 of the healthiest foods on earth ~ and keiko and I completely agree with his assessment on how they effect our health.
David and our secret is this ~ large quantities of organic fruit and vegetables, plus an hour of daily exercise .
