Foods For Better Health! - Myth Or Fact?
Foods For Better Health! - Myth Or Fact?
By Josef Bichler
There are stories in everything: Big stories, little stories, and the most important stories are in health. Finding the right story is paramount to succeed in reaching your goal. Any of us never leave our comfort zone unless we're forced to. We are known as creatures of habits and when we're confronted with a major change in life our routine is interrupted and we're plunged in to the unknown. Gaining new experience, new knowledge and changing the way of thinking in a positive way is the beginning of something 'new'. Health is no different; nothing will change unless you make it happen. Only in the last decade or so research has uncovered how we can take control of our health.
The message over recent times has been very clear: Some foods are good for us and some are not. Research and tests have found that extracts from natural and whole foods are more effective in healing and can sustain optimal health better than anything else.
Can food safe our lives?
There are many testimonials and facts of people who survived aggressive cancers through changing diet and lifestyle. The name "lifestyle" can often be misleading and also be called industrialized or westernised world diet, which mainly consists of fried fatty foods, take away, fast foods, artificial flavours, sugary unhealthy snacks, soft drinks and sodas loaded with artificial sugars. These are only some of the foods causing most of bad health; at the same time it clearly answers that burning question: The right food can safe our lives. Being or become healthy we have to avoid the processed, genetically modified enhanced junk which some of it we are eating every day. As long as we keep buying it and perpetuate the conglomerates, in return they continue to give us more and all of this with no objections from our governments. On the other hand, can we really expect of governments to take the initiative to warn people or even ban these substances from being used that are clearly linked to many carcinogenic products endangering millions of people's lives?
This is why we must gain knowledge, read and learn how to avoid the things that can hurt us and to see through those commercials that try to brainwash us.
What we don't know not only can hurt us, it can take years of our life.
Foods for better health!
The power of natural foods hasn't been realised for some decades, or maybe forgotten or just exchanged for the often better tasting processed ones. Boosting your immune system with whole foods, vegetables and fruits is the only sustainable way for optimal health. The most powerful way to up our mineral and vitamins consumption is making drinks fresh from plants every day, by either blending or juicing vegetables and fruits together. Green drinks make you feel energetic, improve your skin and appearance, and help to drop those kilos at the same time.
Have a salad and a few sticks of celery before your meal; these raw greens and other veggies will insure that we are getting our enzyme intake. Enzymes help to digest food better and make us feel full faster since they contain lots of fibre. Any fermented vegetables and fruits are excellent and good for your gut health. Cultured cabbage like sauerkraut and other vegetables are easy made in your own kitchen to your own taste.
Or create a very powerful miracle drink: All you need is one potato, one carrot and one apple to make the juice; you can add some lemon or lime for better taste, put them all through the juicer and drink while it's fresh an hour before your meal.

For best results drink it first thing in the morning one hour before breakfast and late afternoon, make it fresh every time. This is low in cost and little time involved making it, and will be a great benefit to your health. All vegetables and fruits have different benefits to different health issues. The most powerful ones are found in the cabbage family that include broccoli, kale, cauliflower, and Brussels sprouts. These green leafy vegetables have the highest nutritional and protein value, also the most needed omega-3, and other fatty acids which are essential for our body.
