A RANT ON CHEMICALS Plus Fiber & Water Importance

I have a ton of thoughts racing through my mind this morning, lots of information I want to share...

Thoughts on ARTIFICIAL Sweeteners! Its POISON to the body!! I am serious! I have heard stories over the years of people who have suffered stroke-like symptoms, only to discover they had Aspartame poisoning. There is NO amount of this stuff that is good for the body! These are just my opinions but, do some research on the stuff, its scary!! Use the name Monsanto cause they manufacture it. I RARELY chew a piece of gum cause I can't find any with real sugar!!

Connect these dots...

When you go to the dentist, they always ask about your health, any changes? AND if you have any issues with the heart or particular issues, what happens? Your Medical Practitioner prescribes an anti-biotic before you have work done on your teeth... why????

Because THEY KNOW, the mouth and the heart ARE connected (that's huge)!!!

So what happens when you chew gum with a chemical in it that the body has no nutrient reason to utilize?

*AH HA MOMENT!*

Our bodies want/need REAL food, and I believe one of the reasons we have an epidemic of weight issues in the Northern Hemisphere is due to empty calories in processed foods.

I call Processes Food... A.B.C. Foods... what does that mean?

ALREADY BEEN CHEWED for you food. I also believe that is linked to many of the disorders out there today. If food is already pre-processed or ABCed for you, then doesn't it make sense that our digestive system will become sluggish?

We don't get the "roughage" that we once did from natural fiber!! I remember visiting Client's houses and going through their kitchen and cleaning out the fridge and the cupboards... saying to them.. Eat the Box, it has more fiber than what is IN the box!!! Sad but true!

On to FIBER! I love this guy, he is so good for us women (& men), he loves you like no other food can! lol!! Inside and out (pun intended)! If you get the Daily Recommended amounts of fiber, or slightly above cause, the RDA is a guideline to the LOWEST amount AND you drink water, (based on your weight and activity level NOT just 8-8oz/per day -- Later) YOU WILL FEEL FULLER LONGER and YOU WILL notice a LOT of other benefits.

The experts say; (search it out) that your skin will be clearer, your colon will be healthier (no guarantees in life though), you will maintain your weight better (if you stick to healthy eating and portion sizes) and you will visit the restroom about 3-4 times per day.

I found that when I was at my healthiest, eating several smaller meals a day... I visited the restroom about 4 times a day.

I found this little gem on the net:
At the International Sports Medicine Institute, we have a formula for daily water intake: 1/2 ounce per pound of body weight if you're not active (that's ten eight-ounce glasses if you weigh 160 pounds), and 2/3 ounce per pound if you're athletic (13 to 14 glasses a day, at the same weight).

So Fiber and Water go HAND IN HAND and avoid chemicals in your diet... they will be more toxins to get out, if you are working out and I tell ya, you will STINK when you sweat and your face will look like you are a teenager again lol!!

Recipe coming later today :o)
