The Skeletons in Your Pantry

The top 3 leading causes of death in America are health related. I am broken hearted by these numbers but I am also extremely encouraged by the fact that this is preventable. Let me share...

• Heart disease: 611,105
• Cancer: 584,881
• Chronic lower respiratory diseases: 149,205

Everyone has heard the phrase "The Skeletons in Your Closet" but what about the ones in your pantry? You know, the processed foods that have no expiration date? I would say those may be of the worst types of skeletons, they are holding us back from living the life we were called to live. Frankly these nutritionally deprived foods are stealing life away from us each and every day that we consume them.

Here are some side effects of eating processed foods:
Brain Fog
Fatigue
Bloating
Digestive Issues
High Blood Sugar
Loss of Focus
Acne
Weight Gain
and so much more.

Think I am crazy? What if I told you that 2 out of 3 people are obese in the US today. Would that change your mind? Or, what if I told you that the younger generation of children is the first generation in history that is due to die before their parents. Does that strike something inside of you? This is no longer about preference of a clean healthy diet for looks and feeling better. This is becoming life or death as a matter of fact it is life or death. It is time we educate ourselves on the food industry and food ethics of our nation and start holding each other accountable.

Take a look at your pantry, is it full of life giving foods or is it full of skeletons? Do you have lots of living greens such as Kale, spinach, broccoli and other fresh fruits and veggies or do you have lots of hot pockets, frozen pizzas, bread and cookies? Now, I am not saying that you should never have these things occasionally but what do you have an abundance of in your home? If it is the latter, something needs to change.

I am willing to put in as many hours as I need to in order to inspire and help each of my readers to make a life choice that remove these foods from their diets. Please call or text me anytime at 407-443-1294 with questions or comments. I am also willing to give my time to people who want to do a pantry make over and do not know where to start.

Be intentional about your food purchasing. Be intentional about your health. You are loved, you are cherished.
