Food For Thought

The Holiday Season is not always a happy time of the year. Many of the chronic disease symptoms are manifested during this time. the depression rate increases, people eat foods that are not good for their bodies and blood sugar becomes elevated far above the normal level. Other people may have severe chest pains or nausea and have a resultant heart attack.   while others may decorate their homes with toxic scented candles or use toxic nail polish removers.

In a study published in 1993 in The Journal of the American Medical Association, researches concluded that the predominate causes of death in the United States were linked to non-genetic factors. In other words, lifestyle choices. These factors include eating too much of the foods that contributes to disease and death. It is well known that chronic diseases are not, simply a part of the aging process. Our lifestyle and our behavioral choices can prevent many chronic diseases.
