Everything is Energy
Everything is energy. We
are energy. Life is energy. And when we run out of energy we’re dead!
Energy requires fuel. Our
fuel is known as food or nutrition. Without proper nutrition we are not able to
function properly.
Are you a race fans?
Or do you just drive a car? Race cars run on high octane fuel. The higher the octane, the better the
performance of almost any car.
If you want to perform your best, then you need to eat your
best.
Nutrition should be on the top of your budget and the last thing
to get cut.
In this blog, we’ll be covering all the nutritional
components, essential minerals, vitamins and nutrients and we’ll be emphasizing
cost effective, easy, nutrition and recipes that you can realistically add to
your lifestyle and daily routine. How
does that sound – Delicious or
Nutritious?
And there will be no
profanity on this blog! There will be no dirty four letter words in
here. I am referring to that nasty
4-letter word that starts with DIE…T.
Diet (notice how it starts with the word die?!)
Your goal should be truly about changing your habits and
regimens and implementing lasting and permanent changes in your life.
Here’s a tangible takeaway to get you started on the right
track.
You wouldn’t pour sand, salt, sugar or other crap into the
gas tank of your car would you? And if you did, you wouldn’t expect the car to
run well or last very long would you? Of course not!
So stop putting junk into the gas tank of your body and
wondering why you’re having health problems or not performing at 100%.
Change your mindset about eating. Eat to live, don’t live to
eat.
Everything that goes into your mouth should be high-octane
fuel to power the trillions of cells that make up your body and all of its
organs.
What kind of fuel do cells like? Here’s a list:
1.
Oxygen
(breathe deep and fully – sit up straight or stand tall)
2.
Water
(cut the soda, coffee and colored crap out of your diet and consume only water)
3.
Raw
fruits and veggies (fresh, local, organic and uncooked are great – the greener
the better too)
4.
Nutrient
dense, highly bio-available (usable by the body) supplements like Juice Plus, Chews4Health or Nutopia.
5.
Solar
powered vitamin D (get out in the sun for 20 minutes a day in the morning or
late afternoon – your skin will naturally produce vitamin D when exposed to sun
in moderation).

And most importantly, don’t forget – EVERYTHING IS ENERGY!
