Have you ever heard the expression that you are what you eat? Well, it’s true! And you are also what you drink. If you think about it, everything that you eat and drink is what your body uses to create new cells, repair itself, create energy, create hormones, and fuel every bodily function that keeps you alive. So the quality of your life is literally dependent on the quality of what you consume. That’s why whole foods and alkaline ionized water are SO important.
Anyone who is involved with race cars knows that the quality of the fuel is incredibly important to the performance of the car. Racecar drivers want fuel that is high in octane and low in impurities. It doesn’t matter how good the engine is, the quality of the fuel makes the most difference in the performance of the racecar.
All of this seems kind of obvious but if you see the way people eat and drink these days, we’re not sure the message is getting through. In this hot weather, we’ve seen many people drinking very high sugar beverages, eating fatty foods like hamburgers and chips, drinking sports drinks, eating ice cream, and worse. They aren’t thinking about eating and drinking what’s best for their body, they’re treating food and drink like DRUGS. From these low-quality foods, they get a full, satisfied feeling, they get a little high out of it, and then they move on to the next thing to keep the high going. This is not good for your health!
Making a change to your eating habits and drinking habits is the most important thing you can do for your health. Eliminating animal fats, processed meat, artificial flavors, colors, preservatives, and dyes will help your body function better. Excess chemicals and fat force your body to use your immune system just to protect your vital organs. Your body also creates fat cells in order to store the excess chemicals and animal fat away from your vital organs. It has to do this to keep you alive! Don’t burden your body like this! Eliminate chemicals and animal fat from your diet and you will stay slim and healthy.
Eating nutrient-dense foods like leafy greens will also make a huge difference. Kale is one of the most nutrient-rich foods on the face of the planet. Anything that has a dark color to it that’s a vegetable, you want to eat. Eat those red bell peppers, carrots, spinach, and broccoli. Combine that with whole grain foods like whole wheat, organic lentils, organic peas, and organic black beans. Make yourself a delicious pot of split pea soup, or red lentil stew, or make a whole wheat bread in your Dutch oven that your family can eat all week. Eat oats for breakfast, just mix in some organic apples and bananas with your oats and you’ll have a delicious breakfast.
Google is your friend when it comes to finding even more healthy recipes. Find foods that you will like and make them on a regular basis and you will notice the difference.
Also, be sure to drink alkaline ionized water. No bottled water you can buy has dissolved hydrogen in it. That dissolved hydrogen in ionized water is a powerful antioxidant for your body that will help it detoxify, help your digestion, help your body better get nutrients from food, and ionized water will hydrate you better as well.
Switch to ionized water from a premium water ionizer instead of bottled or tap water. Combine ionized water with whole grains and organic foods to give your body premium fuel to live on. Over the next several months, your body will be remade from this fuel and everything about you will feel better. You’ll have more energy, you’ll heal faster, you’ll lose weight or get in better shape, your skin will be more supple and look better, and your joints will feel better.
You are what you eat and drink. Take the time to invest in your body now and it will pay dividends later. Alkaline ionized water is an important tool to give our body what it needs to perform at its absolute best.
