Its been a while I posted on health and food, I guess I'm led to, today. Health definitely is wealth and food is like fuel to the body.
Introduction
Anything an individual eats becomes a part of their inner being , this of course has an effect on the outer body.
The healthier the foods you consume, the better you look. If however you are someone who pays little or no attention to what goes into your mouth, you are causing yourself hidden problems.
The body is known to take nutrients from digested foods to function properly and stay healthy. Good nutrition translates into good health and health is freedom.
Nutrition
Nutrition is the usage of food to grow, repair and maintain the body. Nutrition is, getting the right amount of nutrients un the right proportion. Nutrients are substances in food that the body processess to enable it function.
The essential nutrients are :
Carbohydrates, proteins, fiber, minerals, water and lipids. The absorption of nutrients start with the onset of digestion.
Some suggested good nutritious foods
Grains are important because they contain fibre for easy digestion.
Fruits and veggies are sweet tasting and they aid digestion as well. They contain vitamins and minerals and are very low in fat.
Protein and milk are required for body nourishment. Milk and milk foods are important sources of calcium.
Minerals are good source of healing and nourishment to the body. Minerals and vitamins are known.
Water is another essential nutrient, I do not think any individual can survive a week without water. Also there wre some underlying diseases that will find their way into one's body if one does not take enough water. Water flushes out toxuc or waste material from the body.
Conclusion
You are what you eat. The act of being careful about food or that is to be ingested into the body should'nt be ignored. The act of being deliberate about what to eat should not be taken with levity.
