Changing your dietary habits isn’t hard. No, really! It isn’t! It involves a few simple steps to rewire how your brain responds to the food you have been feeding it. It’s tricking yourself from yourself.

How is this done?

Adding more Raw Vegan Organic foods sounds intimidating, but all it really means is adding live, active, FRESH FOODS to your diet. You know FRESH, ORGANIC, preferably local. That old adage of “you are what you eat”, is an old adage for a reason. Just as you are your words, thoughts and actions. If you are putting processed, refined, swimming in artificial additives and gmo’s, what do you think that is going to do your holy temple? Your liver filters everything we put in our bodies, and even though the human body is a wonderwell of adaptogenic properties, this adapting takes time and may take a toll on your health. So drop that artificial sweetener packet, chuck those sugar loaded-carbonated beverages and those microwave bags of frozen veggies. Lose the white sugar, the white bread!

This doesn’t mean you are signing up for a raw vegan cult and giving up having fun with your food. You are taking steps to loving your liver, your digestive system, your endocrine, your adrenals and your nervous system, and in turn your body will show you some love by giving you glowing skin, restful sleep and an active, lean and optimized body.

Here’s a great acronym to apply to your diet. Never stray from this and your body will reward you with glowing health and sexy stamina for the rest of your days.

eat less CRAP:
C – carbonated drinks(all colas, fizzy beverages)
R – refined sugars(candy, white sugar, light brown sugar, powdered sugar)
A – artificial sweeteners & colours(food dyes)
P – processed foods(try not EAT anything that has more than FIVE ingredients)
