How? How on earth have we gone so far in the wrong direction when it comes to our health?
How is it that we now have ‘Health aisles’ in the supermarket? What do the other aisles consist of then? illness aisles? Why are we buying foods that could make us ill? Why are they selling ‘foods’ that could make us ill?
I could go on for days, if not weeks about this – but what’s the point? Complaining won’t change it, so what do we do?
If there is one thing that I would love you to take away from this post, its this;
Nobody cares or will care, about your health as much as you.
And to add to that…
You must be the one to take control of your health!
These statements should empower you – not worry you. Sometimes we can’t change our environment BUT we can change how we react to our environment and what actions we take to create change.
It’s time to make a game plan! (Yay)
Remember, I’ve been on the opposite side of health before. I’ve faced illness, regularly, and I’ve lived many years in an unhealthy fashion. Whether that be food, medications, cosmetics, lifestyle, alcohol, relationships, my mindset, my movement and lack thereof – I’ve been there! But you know what? Getting out of that space was actually one of the easiest things I’ve ever done.
Getting healthy is really not that hard.
It takes work, yes for sure it does – but not hard work. Enjoyable work. Life-changing work. Exciting work, but not hard work.
Why?
Well, because I make it easy for my clients to restore their health.
When the odds are stacked against us, with fast food outlets on the rise and readily available at the click of a button, with supermarkets advertising inflammatory and GMO (non) foods, aswell as the cosmetic industry pushing us to plaster highly toxic chemicals on our face, and medical ‘experts’ jumping out of their seats to slap medication bandaids over our bodies cry for help – then yeah, il make it my mission to push through all of that BS to get the truth to my clients and help them bypass the endless marketing of death disguised as health.
We need to take our health into our own hands – full stop!
Sugar leads to cancer – yet, sugar and artificial sugar at that is laced in a large number of our usual consumables. They disguise the names, they hide the names, and they do everything they can to misinform you that their products are safe!
As a rule of thumb, when you look at the back of a food packet, if you don’t understand the ingredients listed – don’t eat it.
Diabetes, Alzheimers, Cancer, Depression – ALL on the rise, and ALL linked to high levels of sugar in our blood.
We know this to be true, deep down we do. We might ‘pretend’ like we don’t know or didn’t know all along and we are just the poor consumers who got fooled but the only person you are fooling here is yourself – because it’s your health at the end of the day – no one else’s.
