National Geographic is doing a phenomenal series on food. Articles are great (but quite long!) so they have created excellent, very short videos to tell each story.
Here is the truth – what we eat, what we put in our bodies affects not only our health and waist size, but there are immense impacts on our culture, government and environment – as a country and a planet. Each choice we make truly is making a difference – and it can be for the better or for the worse. I may think about this more than all of you since this is my profession (and I am obsessed!!) – but I cannot stress enough the importance of knowing where your food comes from and making conscious choices on what is important to you.
We make mindless decisions all day long – running around stressed and busy and not taking time to think. I am not telling you what to do, I am simply asking you to be more aware of what you are doing and make sure you are comfortable and confident in your decisions.
Hope this can help get you thinking…and allow you to make mindful choices.
