“Real Food” Facts

What is “Real Food”?

Those that nature give us, plant, roots, fruits, nuts, seeds, meats, eggs, milk and those made from it. Fake foods are those that human beings create trying to imitate the natural food.

The Research

There is plenty of research to support the consumption of real food. Numerous studies have found epidemiological evidence that eating whole foods(particularly plants) has a protective effect on health and reduces risk of chronic disease.

Regular consumption of fruits and vegetables is associated with reduced risks of:

  • Cancer
  • Cardiovascular disease
  • Stroke
  • Alzheimer disease
  • Cataracts
  • Some of the functional declines associated with aging

 

Real food regulates appetite – so you don’t overeat
Real food controls blood sugar/insulin – so you can avoid energy swings and diabetes
Real food provides the best nutrition – so you can remain healthy for life
Real food has a sane amount of energy – so that you can’t accidentally overeat
Real food has a longstanding relationship with our body – so that our bodies know what to do with it
Don’t waste calories on foods that don’t offer you as many nutrients as “real foods” do!
