I have asthma and it is pretty much under control. I know most of my triggers and for the most part can avoid them. I know that eating snow cones can trigger an attack especially if it has too much syrup on it. Ice cream also has a similar effect. I can indulge in them occasionally bu

Most people don’t seem to care what they eat. As long as they can consume it they will eat it. I do not follow those rules. My body does not tolerate anything that is not good for it. It fights back for real. I am even going to step out and say that is true for all people.

Just take a look at some of our young people’s faces. Acne is prevalent amongst them. I can hear them now. Food does not give me pimples. Well actually pimples are caused by lots of factors, but it does not help if the diet consists of lots of fatty, sugary foods and little to no water.

I do not have a problem with acne but I have other problems that flare up when I don’t eat right. For instance when I don’t eat enough green vegetables my gums get sores on them. How do I know that it is from lack of greens? They go away once I include them back in my diet.

If I lack fibrous foods such as whole grains or fruit, I have problems with my bowels and I get headaches. But I must always include water when eating fiber because the problem will compound and not get better.

There are days when I feel really tired seemingly for no reason. It is usually due to insufficient iron. So again I analyze my intake of leafy green vegetables and dried fruit such as raisins. I do not eat red meat and rarely eat chicken or fish so I rely on the veggies to replenish my health.

Another cause of sluggishness is overeating or eating late at night. Even if you are a vegetarian you are doing yourself harm if you eat late at night or eat too much food. The stomach has to work overtime trying to digest food at a time when it should be resting. This overworking of the stomach actually makes you tired.

Although eating lots of fruits and vegetables is important. The one main nutritional item that a lot of people neglect is water. Lack of water causes a lot of problems that people do not even understand. Since our bodies are made up mostly of water it makes sense to keep it replenished. Problems such as constipation and kidney problems will be almost non existent with plenty of water in the diet. Sodas, caffeinated drinks, and juices cannot replace water. Although pure juices are good for you, they still do not contain enough water for your body.

Do I believe that what I put in my body makes a difference? O yes I do! If we all want to be honest we know that most of our problems are caused by what we consume or fail to consume. So take inventory and see what you are doing to help or hinder your health and make the appropriate changes if necessary.
