Not feeling good lately? Having a hard time enjoying a good dinner for fear of the discomfort that may result later? Are you finding it harder and harder to lose weight? Do you or members of your family find it takes longer to get over an illness or injury? Scientists the world over are increasingly saying many of these problems and more are probably related to our modern diets. Even though the food we eat tastes and looks fine to our eyes, most of it is filled with fat and harmful chemicals that don't even have to be listed on the label. Did you know that the taste AND smell of many foods in restaurants are achieved almost entirely with specially designed chemicals? Without those chemicals, the french fried you enjoyed yesterday would have tasted like grease lumps and smelled even worse. Specially designed chemicals added to food trick you into thinking you're eating food that is good for you. Nothing could be further from the truth. More and more people are insisting on eating whole, raw, natural foods. Instead of milk that is filtered, cooked, and chemically treated, many families are now finding ways to get untreated, natural milk directly from the cow. The health benefits are incredible, including real scientific evidence that raw milk (like our grandparents drank) successfully treats some ailments. The lesson is easy to see. Humans were never designed to eat chemicals and processed blobs of fat. For thousands of years we ate nothing but whole grains, fresh fruits, and other natural, raw nutrients. Instead of ingesting factory-created pills, we used specific herbs to calm maladies and cure illness. No wonder people today have more health problems that ever. Clearly we need to stop and remember some of the important nutrition lessons our ancestors knew so well. Here are four ways you can improve your diet NOW: 1. Stop buying so many pre-packed foods. Instead, stock your shopping cart with fresh vegetables, fruits, and juices. They're better for you by far. 2. Pass up fast food. Our busy schedules encourage eating at drive-throughs, but taking time to cook fresh food will pay dividends to your health. 3. Look for herbal supplements and treatments first before you opt for prescription drugs. They're far cheaper and often much better for your health. 4. Get exercise. Our ancestors didn't sit for hours in front of TV's and computer screens. Most walked everywhere they went. No wonder many lived active, healthy lives well into their 70s, 80s, and 90s. One of the most exciting developments recently are studies that tell us what people ate in biblical times. As you may know, some people mentioned in the Bible lived what may have been extraordinarily long lives. Studies show people of those regions in those times ate very interested combinations of plants and juices. Experts say that may be how many of them lived to be well over 100.
