I don't think I've been to a standard grocery store in six months and if I did it was to buy 1 or 2 things. Most of my food these days comes from Trader Joes, a local Farmers Market and Whole Foods. And very little is pre-made.
There is too much pre-packaged food with high levels of fat and refined sugars out there and "most" people don't know that those types of things are not part of a healthy diet. I chose to be an "almost vegetarian" ( eat fish occasionally) about 3 years ago. I've been sick less, lost 10% body weight and feel much stronger than before. The Paleo food approach may work well for others but I think it's really about the right amount and kinds of food (unprocessed, natural, cleaner food)and moderate exercise that is the path to fewer health issues and a longer life. There is an interesting book called "Blue Zones" out there that is about that kind of lifestyle and shows cultures where the health improvement results are statistical significant. ~Mike~ On Mar 23, 4:26 pm, Dustin Sharp <paleo.v...@gmail.com> wrote: > Sounds pretty simple, but I wonder why we as a nation keep getting fatter > and fatter when we all know how to do the opposite? > > Seems more accurate to say that we Americans all know how to get fat and > unhealthy on the Standard American Industrial Diet, but a few people have > figured out that by eating real food and staying active, it's possible to > stay relatively healthy. > > It blows my mind when I walk into a mainstream grocery store how little real > food there actually is. > > > > > > > "Eat a variety of healthy whole foods and exercise regularly - > > everybody knows how to do that, and what it looks like, tastes like > > and feels like." > > > Yep, that's it.
