I am very concerned about all of the unhealthy and processed foods now available in our grocery stores. It concerns me that many of you are eating these foods and feeding them to your children.

Several staples in these processed foods—particularly corn and soy—have been genetically modified to increase production and meet the demand. As a result of this process, these foods may contain harmful chemicals and organisms that are not good for your body.

I just read an article about how some food companies create specific combinations of tastes that they put into their products so we will eat more of them and still not feel satisfied. They call it “The Bliss Effect.”

I have included links to several important articles so you can become more aware of the foods you are eating. Every body is different. I cannot tell you what to eat because I do not know your body. Find the kind of fuel that your body needs to have optimum health and energy. Be good to your body. Learn about the basics of good nutrition.

Let’s affirm: I love myself; therefore, I choose to be aware of what I eat and how it makes me feel.
