You Are What You Eat
by Adele Fridman
You are what you eat.
Yes, this is basic, and yes, it’s a widely-known clichés — but it’s probably the most accurate. Take a look at what you eat, then at your appearance and how you feel; you will see a correlation!
You all already know that too much fat, sugar, or alcohol will lead to you feeling overweight, tired, and clogged. On the other hand, whole grains and fresh veggies and fruits will always lead to you feeling strong, healthy, and focused.
So, you know that the foods you eat affect how you act, feel, and look. But why? Because the building blocks of various foods will literally evoke different hormonal responses in your body!

Got Cravings?
That’s right, different foods, when eaten, require that your body respond to them — this is how cravings are born! Your food choices directly affect your body on a cellular level. It’s up to you to determine how you want to look, feel, and think. Sugary and fried foods cause diabetes, blood pressure, depression, and cardiovascular disease, in addition to having little to no nutritional value because your body sees them as foreign.
It simply doesn’t know how to process them!
If it’s not “real food,” your body simply doesn’t know what to do with it and will store it as fat. Nature created foods to naturally sustain the human body; these foods, in their unaltered state, are optimal for all the different aspect of our health and appearance. Need proof? Take a look at the following facts!
Nature’s Perfect Foods: The Facts
- Did you know that citrus fruits, like oranges and grapefruits, look just like the female mammary glands and that they actually assist the health of the breasts and movement of the lymph?
- A tomato has four chambers and is the color red. But did you know that the heart is also red and has four chambers. Research shows that tomatoes are indeed pure heart and blood food!
- A walnut looks like the brain; both have a left and right hemisphere, and upper and lower cerebellums. Walnuts develop over three dozen neuron-transmitters in the brain.
- Sweet potatoes look like the pancreas and actually help balance insulin levels–especially helpful for those with diabetes.
Isn’t it amazing that the foods our ancestors consumed are the same foods that actually help our bodies function better? Without even knowing why, our ancestors learned what to eat and what to avoid.

The Question of the Century
Why have we stopped listening to our common-sense ancient wisdom?
Sure, you can have a treat once in a while — I personally have one treat meal about once a week (usually a dinner with family or friends), but the rest of the time, I keep my diet clean so that I feel clean! I keep my diet pure so that I feel pure! I keep my diet healthy so that I feel healthy!
We Are What We Eat
Food is a powerful drug. Maintaining a balanced diet will ensure that proper vitamins, minerals, and nutrients are entering your body, regenerating your cells, and helping you feel alive, vibrant, and energized.
A balanced diet containing fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean protein will help you maintain your good health from the inside. Never forget that fad diets simply do not work. We are surrounded by healthy foods, staying healthy, fit, and beautiful is really much more simple than that!
Take care of your body by giving it what it needs to be healthy, and your body will take care of you!
