Immunity and Processed Food
Do you know that you are in charge of your immune system and you can make food choices that help you prevent and reverse even the most serious conditions? Your immune system is your first line of defense when it comes to achieving better health, regardless of where you are today.

So it’s vital that you understand immunity damaging choices such as eating processed and industrial foods which zap your energy or prevent you from recovering from lifestyle related diseases. What exactly are these foods and why do they contribute to autoimmune disorders such as MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, IBS and chronic diseases such as diabetes and heart disease? Well, if it’s in a bag or box or you pick it up at the drive through, that is your first clue.

Are You Inviting Disease Into Your Future?
The convenience foods of today’s American lifestyle are indeed killing us slowly. By eating them, you agree to their immune damaging effects and roll the dice as to which disease you are voluntarily inviting into your future. And many do this because they believe eating healthy is too expensive. Quite the contrary.

Let’s get real. Is it more expensive to eat whole, clean, satisfying food that creates good immunity and normal weight? Or chemical and sugar laden imitation food that is devoid of nutrients, leaving you malnourished, obese and sick? Have you paid cash for a medical bill lately? Now THAT’S expensive! Are you really willing to feed your children and grandchildren stuff that will make their growing bodies susceptible to inflammatory, chronic diseases and obesity? Ask any pediatrician about the health crises of our children because of our immunity destroying food choices for them.

Processed and fast food include a who’s who of bad guys: dehydrated, reconstituted, genetically modified, sugar free, fat free, preservatives, artificial color, artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup, MSG, hydrogenated fats…. all manufactured in the theoretical equivalent of refining oil into gasoline. And why are these killers used in processed food? Because Americans vote with their wallets and buy them, not understanding they are digging their own graves in the name of convenience.

Avoid These Four Industrial Ingredients
With all this being said, healthy really is easy. Avoid these four industrial ingredients for starters: high fructose corn syrup (a.k.a. corn sugar), hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated oils (margarine and Crisco), monosodium glutamate (MSG) and nitrites/sodium nitrites (killer preservatives). Become a label reader (get out your magnifying glass) and you will have taken the first step to reversing autoimmune disorders and chronic disease. You will be amazed with your results in this process of saving your life….and MONEY!

Healthy Really Can Be Easy!
By eating clean, whole foods: proteins (nuts, seeds, lean meats, poultry and seafood) and complex carbohydrates such as veggies (careful with potatoes) and fruits (unsweetened and very limited juice), healthy really can be easy!
