In Biology classes at school we are taught the facts of nutrition.  How food is taken into the body and digested, utilised, and then the waste expelled.  Bored already?  I'm not surprised.  Taught like this, it is as if nutrition was something totally detached from us.  If you are still with me I congratulate you, and perhaps I could give you a prize.  What is the prize you might ask?  Well, it could be a sweet - we think of sugar as a reward don't we, as a generous gift, something wonderful, and for many even a necessity.  But this is simply not true.

If I truly loved you, I would never give you such a poison. 
People often ask, why are so many folks  stressed and anxious?  'It's the state of the world', they say, or 'It's the weather', or 'It's just the WAY LIFE IS!'  This too, is simply not true.
There are many reasons why we are not free of the underlying fear that runs through the mind of man.  One very good reason is our FOOD.
It is a sad fact that most people live off a daily diet of stress, fear and anxiety and they don't even know it.  They do not know that the food they consume is already loaded with negativity and fear.
If you eat an animal that has been bred and raised for mass food consumption, you are swallowing whole everything about that animal.  If it was kept in cramped conditions, hardly able to move, all it's freedoms and natural behaviours denied, and if it was fed chemicals, anti-biotics and growth hormones to keep it alive and accelerate its growth unnaturally, and if it was frightened, physically attacked and then slaughtered alongside many other terrified animals, whoever eats it will consume all of those chemicals, drugs and hormones that animal was given, and all those that it produced itself in its short, anxious, stress-filled, frightened life.  You cannot separate your physical body from what you put in your mouth and eat.  Put bluntly, your body is formed from the cells of these animals.  Your beating heart, your skin, the hands with which you cradle your child, your thinking mind - all are made up of the bits and pieces and poisonous experiences of these animals.  You ARE them.
If you eat food that has been processed and packaged, it is as if it were already dead.  There is no life force left in it.  It has been pulverised and reduced and become little more than dust.
It is really so easy for us here in the west to eat fresh, vibrant food.  There is no reason not too.  All that stands in the way is an ignorance of our ability to choose the reality we wish to create.  Any foodstuff in a packet that has been changed and added to from its natural state, is no longer of value to your body.  All the things your body needs to thrive have been depleted by the processes long before you put it in your microwave - which by the way will alter whatever you 'cook'. The cellular structure is changed.  So the milk you heat for your precious, innocent baby comes out as something else - completely different.
There is something at work here which when you grasp it makes sickening sense.  It's called the economy.
Society is made up of those who feed off others.  Some of these people run big companies who require profits to survive. These companies 'farm' the rest of humanity.  They make sure the masses keep producing money as frequently as cows produce milk.  In this society if people don't produce money they are considered worthless.
Sugar is one of the products that has enslaved the body and mind of the western world.  Your body goes through debilitating swings and challenges just to try to process it - refined sugar is poison to a body.  Even worse is how powerfully addictive it is.  We all fall rapidly under its spell. The big companies have convinced us through their relentless brainwashing through the media, that sugar is good for us.  It's a treat they say, its a reward for a hard day's work - we must have it! If you have addicts under your control, they will do whatever you want to get their fix.  It is a perfect, profit making arrangement.
Those at the top sit back and reap the rewards of the millions who remain stressed, anxious, fearful and addicted - those who live out their lives as pawns in a game they don't even know they are playing.
There is one redeming truth.  The truth is we all have freedom of choice.  Some do not believe this truth.  They believe they are victims. But every day we make thousands of free choices from the endless thoughts that churn in our minds.  Everything from 'tea or coffee' to 'shall I buy that car?'
When we recognise this truth, we start to control our circumstances.  Do I want to eat that dead animal that lived such a sad, depleted life, saturated with misery and fear?  Do I? Is this what I want my body to be made up of?  Is this what I want my children to be created from? Do I want to spend what money I have on my sugar addiction?  Do I want my body to suffer - do I want my children to follow me into a life of addiction?  Is that my choice?
Or shall I be more discerning... spend my money for the good of my body, my mind and my soul.  Be conscious of my choices.  Be mindful of the impact I have on the world and all life.  And shall I be satisfied with less?!  Now that is a radical thought in a world saturated with the greed for more.

Eat less and eat better
Choose wisely and with Love
Remember.... you are free to make the choice... is this food, or is this someone else's poison?
