The consumption of them over the years leads to very sick bodies. I have tried to change my nutrition in the following ways. Elimated artificial sweetners, no high fructose corn syrup, no hydrogenated oil of any kind (be careful they change the name on this one), avoid processed or refined anything, use organic if it is on the dirty dozen list. Pesticides are killing us! I limit my meat consumption, but if I do have it, I make sure it is range free, grass fed, no hormones or antibiotics added and wild caught fish, not farmed. I avoid unhealthy fats but eat healthy ones, such as olive oil. Eat clean. Eat real food, not fake. I exercise 3 - 5 times a week, but I don't kill myself at the gym. I don't count calories, I don't feel deprived. I have lost 14 pounds in a couple of months and I can honestly say I don't feel like I am dieting. Warning: You will have to do a little studying and become a reader of labels. FDA approved and/or USDA does not mean that it is good for you.deb dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735584738206926498noreply@blogger.com
