Although it may seem obvious that real food, I realize that this is not true for many people. I have been teaching for 10 years and am amazed at the "food" some parents send their children to school. A dozen cookies, a bag of chips and a slice of cheese melted on white bread with a sweet drink to wash it. Try to teach children after eating a meal like this. In kindergarten I always encourage children to bear fruit and vegetables in your meals. A girl always came to school with these jellies GUSHER label type "Gushers fruit." She was always embarrassed that she has never had fruit and when she asked her mother in front of me one day, his mother looked confused and said, "Honey, that is the result." Wow, how did this happen? My grandparents raised their children on everything from your garden!
What most people eat not even be regarded or treated as food. And "food" we have in abundance in supermarkets is nothing like our grandmothers ate food. We have a simple rule, but very effective in our house: I always ask my kids: "How many ingredients that" IE - a banana banana in it, apple, cucumber, carrot, chicken, eggs, etc. Of course, we can put whole food ingredient to soups, stews, salads and even cookies! But the food is known as the islands of the major grocery stores should be "produced". more appropriately called "Most food" found in the islands has been genetically modified, full of chemicals, artificial and natural flavors (also known as MSG) and food dyes dangerous. Our bodies were never designed to eat well!
We live in a busy period when the average person receives more information in one day than our ancestors received in one year! So food manufacturers have jumped on the bandwagon of "help" the busy working mother. But what happened is their wallets have bigger and us. Not to mention the rise in childhood diabetes, ADHD and autism. There is no doubt that food and environment play a role in these conditions.
But we can change that. You can eat real food. When we choose to eat real food raw, unprocessed, our bodies react the way they are supposed to, therefore, our body will be slim and healthy.
