Do you think you could eat a half a cucumber, two carrots, a lemon half, some spinach leaves, a half tomato, one large apple, and a broccoli shoot all in one sitting? Do you think it would taste good? I know some of you probably could but we are talking practicality here folks! I am sure you already know the benefit of choosing a lifestyle full of whole grains, lean meats and veggies versus one of fast food, heavy meals, and saturated fats, right? Great well with that said, let's talk about how you can reverse the trend of hyper-tension, heart disease, and diabetes by juicing!
Now I am not talking about store bought products like you see on all the store shelves today, and there are plenty to choose from! No what I am talking about is getting back to the basics of nutrition. I am talking about going a few generations back - the time we did not have so many choices and more things were done locally! Yep I am talking about your good old neighborhood farmer!
You might be thinking to yourself, what does this have to do with me! Well, here it is! You see, when I was a younger lad, I had a heart attack which changed my way of thinking and relationship about food. Being primarily raised by my grandparents, almost everything in my home was fried. Well years of eating that way coupled with the stress of my job at the time (US Air Force - overseas) eventually led to my heart needing a break! After that happened I began learning how I could prevent a heart attack from happening again!
Pushing the fast forward butting to present day, most would not expect that I have almost no signs of having a heart attack. Aside from having a stent placed in my arteries and needing to take cholesterol medication (I chose natural alternatives), it's almost as if I never even had the heart attack! I now shop at better food chains and local farmers markets. Not only am I helping the local economy, I am also reducing my carbon footprint because I am consuming less plastic because I don't buy as many processed stuff, but I digress.
I attribute the fact that I am still here to the MAN above, the better choices made afterwards and in large part to juicing!
Now unless you have been living under a rock, you probably know Jack LaLanne right? He was a pioneer in my eyes, and really did some great things in his life and it can all be traced back to juicing! This among other healthy choices is how I have lowered my cholesterol levels and dropped a few inches on my waistline!
Anyway, I have taken enough of your time but I can tell you as one who does not really push products, if I were to endorse any product, it would have to be my juicer! I have an older model but it still serves me and my family quite well. I will be presenting more content like recipes and such if you want to learn more about this amazing product! Now they come in other colors and it's a bit small than the one I have. If you want to change your life for the better, then this is a must have as far as I am concerned!
