Because of the amount of bad fats we get from fast foods, processed foods, packaged foods, we have to give our bodies some ammunition in the form of good fats to deal with all these bad fats. Omega 3 and 6 good fats are the answer. They also reduce cravings as your brain is fed very essential fats. Next, is vitamins and minerals . I believe strongly that whole foods are what we are meant to eat and what we are designed to have for healing and growing.
Vitamins are important, but minerals are the catalyst for everything in our bodies.
What this means is that minerals ignite every action in our cells and bodies. No vitamin can work without the proper minerals. Research has now proven without any doubt that there are at least 10,000 vitamins and minerals in each of our vegetables. Scientists have discovered a handful of these 10,000 to date so when we take isolated vitamins and minerals from a supplement we are missing thousands of essential elements. This means eat the apple not the apple juice, eat the fresh broccoli not the frozen, eat the real oatmeal rather than the packaged.
