(Top 10 Toxic Food Ingredients By Jillian Michaels, creator of JillianMichaels.com)
This is an article that came through one of my email newsletters lately. I am an avid reader of health concerns, therefore I subscribe to several of these types of newsletters. It use to be, that if you were reading anything in print, it was the truth. That is not necessarily so anymore, so we must take what we do read with a grain of salt and continue on with further research,but in this case, I feel the author is on the right track. I have fervently believed the things she is saying for my entire grownup life, since I have always been fascinated with health related issues.It has always been my belief that a lot of the health and medical problems of the world are caused by the ingesting of these types of toxins. Therefore, the"getting back to the simple way of life" should bring back the normalcy mankind once knew.However,we may not see it in our lifetime.The ridding of all the toxins from our foods,our air,our water,will take a lifetime, and if the world stands long enough for folks to wise up and clean it all up,possibly our great grandchildren may get some benefits from a cleaner more toxin free world, but it is very unlikely that that can ever be accomplished.We can only begin to help ourselves, by cleaning up our own homes and avoid using as many of these products as possible.We are so spoiled to bringing so many of these things into our homes and our lives, it will be a painful slow process to wean ourselves from them, but hopefully we will one day see,it was worth all the pain.

Very interesting, Sue. There's so much we don't know yet about the processed foods we eat.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link to this helpful article. Plenty of motivation to eat healthy here! We can learn a lot from the Amish ... they eat natural, well, and tastily, too.
