Eating Smartly: A Guide to Pursuing a Healthier Life through Diet and Exercise (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781532002595)

The Western diet is making many of us sick. The concept of selling huge amounts of food for a low price brings about too many problems, not only for the ecosystem but also for our health. The concentration on economic power has left us suffering from all kinds of sicknesses and malnourishment. We have been living in innocence and confusion for far too long to ignore the effects of the Western diet. How many people do you currently know who are suffering from diabetes or cancer? Hundreds are being diagnosed with chronic diseases daily and most of them have no idea how it came about. We have become creatures of convenience. A food has to be ready within 15 minutes or less or has to be cooked in a microwave. We complain about our health, not knowing that what we ate for lunch or dinner is causing more damages to our bodies than we are aware of. Obesity, on the hand, is also on the rise causing us to secure our current place as the unhealthiest nation in the world. A lack of fresh food and the overabundance of processed food put children at risk as well as the adults. Eating Smartly proposes that we go back and relive the days of our ancestors to heal our bodies using raw foods. Sickness begins with what you consume daily. We are eating products we call food thinking it is a real food. Nassini's Eating Smartly illustrates how we can start fresh healing our bodies by using locally produced fresh food to bring back the pleasures of eating. You owe yourself a healthy body. Grab it and move on!
