The Original “Whole Foods” Diet
The answer is as old as time and never changes. It is the edicts from the Bible concerning what should be eaten and what should not be eaten. It is the original “whole foods diet”. Somehow we have allowed unnatural or modified foods to substitute for the real thing. Let’s get back to eating the way God intended.So many people are continually searching for “the” diet that will help them lose weight or make them healthy. Diets come and go. While one recommends no carbohydrates, another touts protein as the answer. What are you to believe?
This way of eating derives rules for determining clean and unclean foods from certain passages in the Bible : Genesis, Proverbs, Luke, Exodus, Peter, Leviticus, Judges, Deuteronomy, Isaiah, 1 Corinthians, Habakkuk, and Daniel.[1] Your body is amazing and works like a well-oiled machine if allowed to do so. Teas and herbs are natural plants that have been used for over four thousand years. The father of medicine – Hippocrates – was once quoted as saying, “Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food.” I recommend a book I carry at the tea shop that goes into depth about teas and herbs by author, Victoria Zak. In her book, 20,000 Secrets of Tea, The Most Effective Ways to Benefit from Nature’s Healing Herbs, she talks about nature’s plants as healers and much more. “Tea has been a favorite beverage worldwide for hundreds of years. A cup of tea on a rainy evening can chase the chills away and a pot of tea shared among friends can lend an air of enchantment to an afternoon. But more than that, tea can treat a variety of ailments, and with this invaluable guide, you can put the secrets of tea to work for you!” wrote Victoria Zak in the forward. If you want to read more on eating naturally, this is a great post about the very reasons you might want to work on changing your eating habits for a lifetime. https://www.amazingfacts.org/media-library/study-guide/e/4990/t/god-s-free-health-plan
