Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog. I attended a health seminar once, and the speaker said we have all the technology our forefathers never had, but we will never live as old as them, and that is the hurtful truth. We have a lot of technology at our disposal, but people of this generation no longer live as long as people back in the days before the whole technology evolution. So many people felt offended by a lot of things the speaker said, but seeing things from his own perspective and looking at how things unfold in our world today, you will come to realize that whatever he said is not far from the truth.

Well, the speaker said those days they only had salt and seasoning cubes as spices for food, but today we have so many spices we add to food to make it taste a lot better, and we do not even care to know what was used to produce these many spices, and some of the ingredients used for production are harmful to the health, which is why the hospitals are filled with people suffering from different illnesses compared to the days of our forefathers. These days, we eat all these already processed foods and call it enjoyment. The amount of chemicals used to preserve these foods is the major cause of many diseases, and our forefathers did not consume them. We are a product of what we eat; it either makes us or breaks us.
I remember a few years back, I could go two days without drinking water, and I felt it was a flex, or let me just call it what I felt it was "a super power." I know how difficult it is for some people to go a few hours without water, but going a whole two days without water was something to be very proud of for me, but I never knew how much harm I was causing myself. After so much persuasion from my mom and a little health problem, I was forced to see reasons to stay hydrated, but that was not reason enough until last month.

I saw for myself what it feels and looks like for someone to suffer from a kidney problem. A neighbor in the apartment I live in suffered from a kidney stone, and I really could not believe my eyes. His look changed completely; it was hard to recognize him not to talk more about the amount of money spent on medication. That was more than enough reason to give God thanks; as my ignorance did not land me in a situation like that, and it also made me realize the importance of staying hydrated and being watchful of what I eat.
Thanks for reading my post.
