Eating healthy
There is a meth that eating less is healthy and that is proved to be wrong , it is not mostly about how much you eat , it is really about what you eat , for example eating 0.5 kg of vegetables not like eating the same amount of sweet donuts , the concept here is eating natural things witch contain a lot of fiber and slow releasing glucose , fat and nutrient is better than eating fast manipulated food bump glucose into your blood suddenly witch make your organ work under pressure and load your liver with fat , if you do that once no harm , but if you are doing it daily and daily for years then you end up with what this blog about .
The massage is to treat glucose and fat like a poison killing you slowly if you don't watch it .

I like articles like this. It's a good reminder that we all get caught up in the tasty fatty "foods" that are not helpful for our bodies. Calling them "foods" is a misnomer anyway. There is nothing natural about them. We are careful about the fuel we put in our vehicles but not into our bodies. We tend to look at food as enjoyment, or entertainment first and as a fuel last.
that is so accurate example @countrygirl , actually you summarized the blog in 3 line
Thnx for the input
