What is FOOD? Pt. 2

Thursday, July 7, 2011
Rule No. 7: EAT SWEET FOODS AS YOU"D FIND THEM IN NATURE
In nature, sugars almost always come packaged with fibre, which slows their absorption and gives you a sense of satiety before you've ingested toooooo many calories.
That's why you're always better off eating the fruit rather than drinking the juice!

Rule No. 8: BREAK THE RULES ONCE IN A WHILE
Obsessing over food rule is bad for your happiness and maybe your health, too.
Over the past few decades, dieting and worrying too much about nutrition has made us no healthier or slimmer; cultivating a relaxed attitude toward food is just important.
The key word here is  'WASATIYYAH' or 'MODERATION' or balance.

Rule No. 9: PAY MORE, EAT LESS
Choose quality over quantity.
If you spend more for better food, you'll probably eat less of it, and treat it with more care.
"It is better to pay the grocer than the doctor" as a wise grandmother used to say...

Rule No. 10: AVOID FOOD PRODUCTS THAT CONTAIN MORE THAN FIVE INGREDIENTS
The specific number you adopt is arbitrary but the more ingredients in a packaged food, the more highly processed it probably is.
Avoid the ingredients that you can hardly pronounce!

"You are what you eat"
:-)


Don't be like a boy... who always ate and ate and ate...


" He had pizza in his pocket, he had ketchup on his shirt,
And he bought an ice-cream sundae, so he wouldn't miss dessert.
He had pizza in his pocket, he had ketchup on his shirt,
And he bought an ice-cream sundae, so he wouldn't miss dessert.
Being thankful is what's really great.
Eat the veggies on your plate.
And don't be like the boy who always ate and ate and ate!
"

"where are you going? where are you going?
NORTH? SOUTH? EAST? or the WEST?
