I had a revelation the other night ago while sleeping. The voice in my head said “eat more whole grains, nuts, and fiber.” It continued on “You know what’s good for you so do it.”
Starting today, I have decided to go on a 30-day cleanse. The first thing I am going to do to accomplish this is increase my fiber in-take. Eat foods high in whole grains such as brown rice, oats, buckwheat, and barley.
In addition, nuts and seeds help to increase health as well. For a healthy snack there is sunflower seed, almonds, flaxseed, and pumpkin seed. These items can be taken with a table spoon of olive oil.
Drink plenty of water. What a great deal of people may not know or understand is the powerful ability of water in nature and in health. Water helps to cleanse and rid the body of toxins and helps us stay hydrated. Water can give the skin a clear rejuvenated appearance as well.
I will be cutting back on animal products including dairy. Meat can be a good source of protein and pro-biotics, however, fish, eggs, and boneless and skinless chicken are lighter and digest faster. My top three are tuna, salmon, and egg whites.
Last but not least, getting three full servings of green leafy vegetables, does a body good. Kale, Collards, and Turnips are all naturally cleansing vegetables. These vegetables help cleanse the colon tract. I enjoy lentils and brown rice occasionally.
The only exercise that I feel humans were made to do is what I like to call nature exercise. This includes walking, climbing, lifting, and pulling. That’s it. Focusing on these natural movements can make tremendous impacts for health.
If we take it one day at a time when it comes to improving out health we all can live longer happier lives.
