You only Live once ....



Some people would say....
"You only live once and Life is short, so why restrict ourselves from all the great food out there ?"

I say....
"You only live once, and Life is short, so why make it shorter?"

The thing with most people is, they don't know that healthy food , taste great too.
A lot of the "great tasting normal food" are often over processed food that's high in sugar, fat, artificial flavorings, artificial color, preservatives, etc.
Healthy food is underrated really, it's not just a simple bowl of boring salads anymore, it's so much more.... there are so many variation, spices, dishes, desserts, that are healthy and super yummyyyyy.
You don't have to be a Vegan to be healthy, but you need fruits and vegetables to stay healthy.

Another thing is.... most people are stubborn and they believe what they want to believe.
If they go to a supermarket and read a food product that has "Healthy" all over it, they buy it.
it may be considered "healthier" to its product competitors due to an increase in vitamin levels because the product may be fortified, but it may not be all that healthy.
Let's say a yogurt..... it may have a good bacteria that we need,
but will the live bacteria reach the intestines so that they have a chance to flourish ?
and some yogurt brand contains artificial flavor and color.
and a whole lot of sugar.
so.... "healthy" may not necessarily mean healthy.
But since they taste good, most people choose to believe that the yogurt that contains artificial flavor and color and lots of sugar is healthy and choose to overlook other not-so-healthy ingredients.
So... what we choose to eat is totally our choice and it's also a case of re-educating ourselves

Yes you only Live once,
Yes Life is short
so please eat healthily.... or eat healthier at least, Try it.... and you'll find that Healthy food also taste great and it'll make you feel great too.

But it's not all about food.
It's also about achieving your life goals, it's about making your dreams come true, it's about being useful for others, it's about sharing, it's about finding true happiness, it's about accomplishing all that, it's about Living a Meaningful Fun Exciting Life.

So by all means, make your Life meaningful :)
you can start by eating healthier
and you can start now :)
