Food is the fuel that forms the building blocks upon which our body is maintained. It's the energy we use to get through the day, and quite possibly the single biggest contributor to our overall health and longevity wellness. You truly are what you eat, and that's why it's so important to eat foods that are both clean and nutritious.
When you think about it, your body can only do so much with the materials you give it. A body built on candy and fast food will undoubtedly have more difficulty staying healthy than one fueled with a balance of proteins, fats, and nutrients.
Eating clean means giving your body a break from having to process foods that have been filled with additives and other unnatural elements. Every chemical and preservative has to be sorted by your body, and this process can be exhausting. Your energy levels, waist line, and overall health suffer as a result.
So, do yourself a favor. Exchange over-processed foods for whole foods whenever possible. Enjoy a banana instead of a chocolate bar, oatmeal over candied cereals, and grilled protein in the place of fried foods. You'll be amazed at how much better you will feel after just a few days.
