Its been a while...

Hi everyone!  So sorry I haven't posted in a while!  Working full time and having two small side businesses, working out, back injury and family have been my priority! 

I received a fantastic email today, that I am sure has been circulating for a while.   It is quite relevant to what I have been doing - Eating Clean as often as possible and exercising for optimal health.  I just bought Tosca Reno's Eat Clean Diet Recharged and will probably be getting more of her books in the future. Any recipes I make I will post and share as well! You must see that Eating Clean is NOT boring!!

This email related the food we eat to our bodies functions. It is quite interesting and I wanted to share it with all of you! 

EAT LOTS OF SWEET POTATOES this is really interesting... old but a good reminder...  It's been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish...All before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners... God left us a great clue as to what foods help what part of our body! God's Pharmacy! Amazing!  A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye... And YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes. A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are indeed pure heart and blood food. Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.  A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.

Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain

kidney function and yes, they look exactly like

the human kidneys.

Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more

look just like bones. These foods specifically

target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium

and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't

have enough sodium in your diet, the body

pulls it from the bones, thus making them

weak. These foods replenish the skeletal

needs of the body.

Avocados, Eggplant and Pears

target the health and function of the womb

and cervix of the female - they look just like

these organs. Today's research shows that

when a woman eats one avocado a week, it

balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth

weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And

how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9)

months to grow an avocado from blossom to

ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic

chemical constituents of nutrition in each one

of these foods. Modern science has only

studied and named about 141 of them.

Figs are full of seeds and hang in

twos when they grow. Figs increase the

mobility of male sperm and increase the

numbers of Sperm as well to overcome

male sterility.

Sweet Potatoes look like the pancreas

and actually balance the glycemic index of

diabetics.
 
 Oranges, Grapefruits, and other

Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands

of the female and actually assist the health of

the breasts and the movement of lymph in and

out of the breasts.
Onions look like the body's cells.

Today's research shows onions help clear

waste materials from all of the body cells.

They even produce tears which wash the

epithelial layers of the eyes. A working

companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate

waste materials and dangerous free radicals

from the body.

I cant get the pictures to show up no matter what I do. I am not great at that sort of thing! 

So there you go!  An interesting way to think of what you should be putting in your body and why!

Thanks!
