Nutrition 101

This article is the Holy Grail to health. For many people, just following these guidelines can make huge changes in their bodies and their health. So the first thing to eat is water. What did I just say? Eat water? Yes water is extremely important for our overall health and is important for our digestion of food, as well as the absorption and transportation of nutrients.

So make sure you hydrate well.
 A good rule to follow is to drink half your bodyweight in ounces of water a day.
The second, and most important piece of advice, listen up people; make sure you only eat food that spoils within a week if not eaten.

 

The image on the left is the food you should eat. The image on the right is the food you should stay away from. Most things that come in a box are severely packaged and have a ton of preservatives in them to make sure they don’t spoil. A definite game changer; going from eating packaged foods to foods that actually have life in them.
The third piece of advice is movement or exercise. Now many might say that this is not nutrition advice, but it is. Your food is being moved around in the digestive tract, such as your small intestine and the colon, by smooth muscles. They are the peristalsis muscles that pump our food through our digestive tract, turning and mixing it so that we can absorb it. This action works best with our own natural body movement. Unfortunately, in our sedentary society, we don't move enough and our food does not get digested as much as we would like. After your meal, go for a nice calm walk for about 30 minutes. This will aid in the digestion of your food.
