Eating healthy
There is a question that always comes to my mind and it is the following...
Why if we know that we should eat appropriate products because it makes us healthy people we continue to eat what hurts us?
The human being is a complex being both in thought and action. We know many things that we learn in our daily life because we are skilled spectators of knowledge. Our mind takes in information that we think will be useful to us.
In spite of all the information, we have about eating vegetables, green juices, and lean meats we continue to eat what is in some way harmful to our bodies.
I have spent my whole life on a diet. Since I was little I remember it because I have a genetic tendency to get fat. My parents were obese and I was born with more than 5 kg. Can you imagine? My mother gave birth to me naturally.
That's how since my childhood I decided to go on diets. One after the other and always bouncing back. Since I did not correct my mind but my appetite and then after the restrictions I went back to eating the same as before.
Today at 60 years of age I am still obese but I do not have a diet. I am reading and following some medical colleagues who write about how to eat better. That is what I am currently practicing.
Flours and sweets are some of the biggest offenders to my body. I like to eat carbohydrates in the form of rice, pasta, and flour and sweets are my favorites. These are all transformed in my organism into sugar that then goes directly to be deposited in my organs in the form of fat.
I like to eat sweets, cakes, gelatins, pasta in different forms, rice combined with vegetables, and meat and fish. I abuse the way I eat them because I like abundance, feeling that I ate enough to not be hungry for a few hours.
Life is not about just eating everything that provokes us. I could not change my mind no matter how hard I tried. Now I am adopting another way of life.
I started drinking green juices on an empty stomach. These do not replace a meal but they give you enough nutrients to start bringing a little more vitality to the body. These juices have a lot of magnesium, potassium, iron, vitamins, antioxidants, and other elements enough to regenerate dead, damaged cells and give restored cellular life.
It has been written that they help prevent cancer as well as eradicate diabetes, hypertension, arthritis, and many other diseases of the human body.
Fasting green juices consist of taking a juice extractor and adding small portions of green vegetables to extract the juice and ingesting them immediately.
Every day I drink a little celery Spain, spinach, prickly pear, cucumber, and a little ginger and lemon. This is a refreshing drink that makes me feel good in the morning. Then I have my coffee and later my breakfast.
I try to eliminate refined sugars and flour as much as I can. For the rest of the day, I drink other juices that are not green but vegetable juices like carrot juice with beet and lemon. And other natural vegetable juices.
It is not advisable to drink fruit juices because all the fructose is extracted from the fruit which is immediately transformed into sugar in the liver and becomes part of the problem. Fruits should be eaten raw not in juices because their process in the body is different.
I have always said that our bodies are intelligent but we ourselves as independent beings spoil everything.
I have decided to learn to eat better. Not to combine carbohydrates with salads and with meats. You have to combine meats with salads and not add carbs to your food if you plan on losing weight.
I have started again to try to improve the way I eat every day and not only when I am on a diet. I hope that my mind and my habitual way of eating poorly will not make me get out of my new habits again.
I especially like to drink my green juices, I do it whenever I can and I feel very strong and in better health, since I do it.
For those who want to avoid degenerative diseases, it is very good to drink green vegetable juices not to lose weight but to fill our body with rejuvenating and revitalizing life. I invite you to do it.
Please try lemon with honey in empty stomach. If you need to slim down. That is also good. There is no substitute for green veggies, they are definitely too good.
