It's not about being better than your neighbor, it's about being better than you were. |
What you get out of your body, physically, chemically and mentally/emotionally is a direct result of what you put
into it (minimal deficiency and toxicity + maximal sufficiency and purity = the best you, the healthiest you).
Food is like air in that we alter our organs, muscles, joints, nervous system...every cell of the body with what we
eat and don't eat each day; a constant daily feeding of positive and negative stresses (action/inaction).
We teach our patients what foods are negative stresses and how to minimize them while at the same time
guide them into feeding the body with what it needs, i.e. foods that promote healing, repair, regeneration,
rejuvenation, and balance, i.e. proper function, energetic living, mental clarity, empowering thought...

NUTRITION TIP OF THE DECADE, OF THE CENTURY:
It's no secret that a good diet, especially one high in fiber and low in saturated fats, has a myriad of health
benefits. Conversely, numerous studies have reported the consequences of a poor diet, including obesity,
cardiovascular disease and diabetes, all of which can lead to early mortality.
In a recently published study, researchers examined the effects of a modified Mediterranean diet on
elderly residents of nine European countries. The goal of the study was to determine the impact of the diet
on longevity. Key nutritional elements of the Mediterranean diet include high intake of fruits, vegetables
and unrefined whole grains; moderate to high intake of fish; low intake of saturated lipids, and high intake
of unsaturated lipids, namely olive oil; a low intake of meat; low to modest intake of dairy products; and
modest intake of wine.
Conclusion: "Adherence to a diet relying on plant foods and unsaturated lipids and that resembles the
Mediterranean diet, may be particularly appropriate for elderly people, who represent a rapidly increasing
group in Europe," the researchers wrote. In other words, eat better, live longer!
