If we don't take care of our bodies,
where will we live?
I am a fan of food. I love to cook, eat and do dishes. Well, maybe not the dishes but they are worth it after a meal has been made. It has come to my attention that the food we eat isn’t so healthy. I mean I know this, but I didn’t really know this. Or maybe I dont want to know this.
I was shocked last week when I saw an article about nutrition. The label the nutritionist she had as the example was for a can of juice.
I realized that there were 34 grams of sugar and there were 34 grams of carbs.
So I started to investigate this label a little more.
16 oz. 2- 8 oz per serving.
34g sugar x 2 = 64 grams of sugar
Hmm I started to wonder how many grams of sugar are in a teaspoon?
- 1 teaspoon of granulated white sugar is equal to about 4.2 grams.
Uh oh.
- 64 grams
This juice.. made of water, hibiscus, (rosas de Jamaica ) and sugar.
- That is 15.2 teaspoons of sugar in a 16 oz drink..
Do you know what is in your food.. really?

America is a nation of widespread health and nutritional illiteracy. And I'm not just talking about the knowledge gaps of health consumers, either. It's the doctors and health "experts" who have astonishing gaps in knowledge that should be considered basic health information in any first-world nation.
Parents, too, lack any real literacy in nutrition and health.

The Good, the Bad and the Human ComedyPoison, love potion, hallucinogenic, truth serum, demon seed, destroying angel, jack o' lantern, puffballs and miracle cure for everything from sagging libido to fading heartbeat - mushrooms in all their numerous identities and marquee nicknames have become the stuff of mythology. And the fact that these prolifically growing fungi have species that number in the thousands has provided us with the opportunity to gain an even clearer perspective on them - specifically which ones are worth considering for use as both food and healthy systemic supplements rich in fiber, protein, and vitamins C and E.

You've been trying to eat less sodium — just a pinch of table salt on your baked potato and a dash on your scrambled eggs. But a pinch here and a dash there can quickly add up to unhealthy levels of sodium. Consider that just one teaspoon of table salt has 2,325 milligrams (mg) of sodium. And it's not just table salt you have to worry about. Many processed and prepared foods already contain lots of sodium.
