Living well through good diet and exercise is a conscious
decision we hopefully make at a young age, so our body can
have the longest lasting, positive influence from the choices
we make. Every good decision gives us the best chance at a
healthy, long life. Everything counts in small amounts.
Our connection to our food is critical whether we grow it all,
which is almost impossible in modern day America, or if we
simply know where it is coming from and the people behind it.
This is a concept we can practice every day. If you buy a food
product, know where it is coming from.
Ask the butcher at the local supermarket a few questions
like, where his chicken comes from? What’s the farm’s name?
Is it certified organic by a non-profit agency? Or ask the hard
questions to get full transparency and the truth about what you
are about to buy and put inside of your body like, is this chicken
from a factory farm? Is it fed GMO grains or raised in inhumane
conditions? If he doesn't know, it means he doesn't care, and
that’s no place to gamble with your health.
For a deeper dive, talk to the produce manager and ask him
where the produce comes from? What’s the farm’s name? Are
they using organic fertilizers, soils and insect killers? Do they
practice recycling on their farm so their footprint is small, and
core purpose is to be profitable as well as sustainable? If he
doesn’t know, he doesn’t care. Don’t support his store until he
has an answer!
Or the best and safest thing to do is to simply grow as much
as you can yourself. Fill every pot and space in your yard with
healthy soil and get as many varieties of edible plants growing
year-round as you can. Take control of your destiny through
clean and pure eating.
