Today I am going to talk about reading labels and to know what you are eating.
I once was that person that saw something that I liked and picked it up at the grocery store, bought it, took it home and prepared it and ate it. Not knowing what I ate just knew it tasted good. I know there are many people out there that do the same thing.
After reading several books and all of them saying the same thing ” Read the labels ” I started to and was surprised. Half of the words I couldn’t pronounce or didn’t even know what they were putting in our foods. The more labels I read the more upset I’ve become. This stuff couldn’t be making me feel good? So I stopped buying foods that had preservatives, additives, artificial coloring, and seed oils. I felt better physically and mentally because I took the step to better health.
I think it is important to point out that we only have one body , which is the temple of the Holy Spirit and to love GOD enough to want to do something good for it. That’s what I did and I’m happy I did. It’s not a hard change to do. Just educate yourself on label reading and look up items in your favorite foods and see what they are. If it’s not a good choice for your body then put it back and find one that is. It takes time to read labels but, After a while you will know what ones have the preservatives and such and it won’t take you so long to shop. Happy shopping!
