Living a Healthy Life

-
Living healthy is not about living long necessarily, of course that can be a benefit, but living healthy is more about avoiding disease and illnesses, it's about keeping your body from aging faster than you.

Statistics show us that most people don't die of old age. The main causes today of dying are war, accidents, diseases, illnesses, you can also die from heart conditions causes by the food you eat, or stress, or even depression. But to get back to the point, very few people just get old and die when their heart stops working.

We are really the masters of our own destiny. In fact science has no idea how long your body can stay alive. In the modern world we live in, we endure air pollution, pollutants in our water, stress in our daily lives, chemicals in our food supply, and dozens more obstacles. No one really teaches us how to coup with modern living. They never taught us that in school. Matter a fact, they never taught that in school. We blame past generations for all the problems we face today but really they only did the best they could with the education they had at the time. Remember it's easier to govern a smaller amount of people. As our population grows and becomes more diverse governing becomes more complex. I believe that's one reason we shouldn't allow politicians to stay in office until they die. We should have  mandatory retirement for all government employees.

Everything will change for the better if people stand up and demand it. Government always listens to the people in the end. The people vote them into office and pay the taxes and without that the government would be reduced to nothing.

So those problems will get solved in a hundred years or so, we can't do anything about it anyway. With that thought in mind, living healthy is left up to us. No one will do it for you. Your doctor can't real do much. There are no magic pills. They give us a prescription to make you comfortable, and help you live with your illness but in general once you have a condition you will always have it. The doctor just helps you to live with it. And socialized medicine will emphasize that.

There is a new tread now to grow your own vegetables and to allow home owners to raise chickens. So what's that all about? People don't trust our food supply. They want to be able to grow their own food. We have always been able to grow fruit and vegetable on your own property but now HOA's are allowing chickens in some areas. Also milk is not as popular as before. We have all types of substitutes for ordinary milk from a cow. Milk made from nuts, from soy, and goat milk just to name a few.

Yes, our food supply is getting an overhaul and why because people are demanding it. In the end the people will always get what they want, but it will always come at a cost.

The best way to start living a healthy life is to start losing excess body fat. Your perfect weight is generally the weight you were when you first became adult age. About 18 or 20 years old is about the time in your life when you were fully grown. That was your perfect weight and if you can stay that weight you will avoid a lot of physical problems.

Losing body fat should be your goal. Read up on weight loss and losing body fat. It doesn’t cost money to lose weight. The internet is full of free information.

The Mediterranean diet is based on the traditional foods eaten by people living in the Mediterranean region, especially Greece. It's loaded with healthy foods and research findings suggest following this diet may help reduce some of the risk factors for heart disease.  According to the Oldways Preservation & Exchange Trust, the Mediterranean diet was introduced in 1993 by Oldways, Harvard School of Public Health and the World Health Organization.  The diet includes: Olives and olive oil Whole grains, mostly in bread and cereal rather than pasta Very little red meat Fish and seafood Some cheese, but less milk Lots of vegetables and fruit Plenty of legumes and nuts A little red wine The Mediterranean diet is high in fiber and antioxidants from vegetables, legumes and nuts, far greater than the typical Western diet, and low in saturated fat.

Changing Your Life To Lose Weight

I can let you in on the ultimate secret for successfully making a change in your life. A century’s worth of psychological research reveals an interesting paradox in who we are. On the one hand, once we reach adulthood our basic personalities remain unchanged for the rest of our lives. We keep doing the same things—and feeling the same ways—over and over. But, on the other hand, every day we change our behavior drastically in response to different environments. Most of us are one person at work, for example, and another person at home. It is easier to change our environment than to change ourselves. So, if you want to change yourself, change your environment. Said differently: Whenever possible, don’t try to fight temptations – avoid them! The easiest way to make a change in your life is to modify the world around you in ways that will naturally drive you toward making, and maintaining, the change you want. There are many ways to change your environment, but let’s focus...

Cancer and High Protein Diets

-
On the Fox TV Network the other night, one of the big stories was about high protein diets. A new study has shown a link between the over consumption of animal protein and how it can stimulate the growth of cancer cells. It seems we all have cancer cells but they don’t normally grow, unless we consume too much animal fat, dairy or fats from processed foods. Before I continue I want to explain about the link to cancer. After all, Man has been eating red meat for millions of years, right. That's true but todays red meat is not the same. Most red meat that we buy in the supermarket comes from Steers that have been raised in feed lots on a grain diet that is full of hormones and other chemicals that shorten the growing time and put more fat on the animal. These hormones and other chemicals stay in the meat and what you're buying will contain the chemicals that the animal ate. Normally a grass feed Steer that lives on the range in big herds will take 18 to 20 months to grow to ...
