LOVE THIS ONE!!!
From the article:
...Your superficial understanding of health has a great influence over your purchasing decisions, and we’re ready for it, whether you choose to go low-calorie, low-fat, gluten-free or inevitably give up and accept the fact that you can’t resist our Little Debbie snacks, potato chips and ice cream novelties.
Whatever the current health trend, we respond by developing and marketing new products. We can also show you how great some of our current products are and always have been.
For example, when things were not looking so good for fat, our friends at Welch’s were able to point out that their chewy fruit snacks were a fat free option. Low fat! Healthy! Then the tide turned against carbohydrates. Our friends in meat and dairy were happy to show that their steaks, meats and cheeses were low-carb choices. Low carbs! Healthy!
But we’re getting uneasy.

Losing weight is an activity that drives us mad; thriving to be healthy and fit is a lifestyle that lasts forever.
Daniel Chidiac says " ... this world is filled with appearance challenges, because we believe that feeling great starts with outward appearance. Your body should be loved for the highly technical machine it is. It deserves respect for housing the only thing that is ever permanent: your soul."

There’s a myth that has been permeating our society for decades – that fat makes you fat. The concept is outdated and simply not true. It’s the sugar, gluten and chemicals in our food that are the real culprit.
More than 500,000 people die each year from coronary heart disease with saturated and trans fats a contributing factor. GOOD FATS however will lower cholesterol and decrease the risk of heart disease.

Medicine used to be obsessed with eradicating the tiny bugs that live within us. Now we’re beginning to understand all the ways they keep us healthy.
From the article: It is a striking idea that one of the keys to good health may turn out to involve managing our internal fermentation. But absolute control of the process is too much to hope for. It’s a lot more like gardening than governing.

Whilst we’ve grown up in a society that has progressively been exposed to and eaten more processed foods, we’ve fallen out of touch with the true understanding of what a ‘whole’ food is as opposed to a ‘processed’ or ‘refined’ food.
Clean food, clean water, and clean air: I think that those are the biggest keys to health.

Everyone's been there: You come home from a long day, open the fridge, and find nothing to eat. Usually this leads to ordering takeout, or eating a less than ideal meal. By keeping your fridge
In our fridge there are always essential sauces: Chimichiri, Gremolata ( we make it with more garlic and oregano oil), and various pestos. The key is to have "on hand" healthy "go to" items that can help you create easy gourmet snacks and meals!

Sugar in food isn't always obvious. When you're eating savory items, for example, you don't necessarily expect much sweetener in the ingredients.
Considerably more than you think!
