Most of us eat because we are bored. That 600 pound man didn't get that way because he was eating three square meals a day. He got that way because he was eating too much food.
Approximately in every 25 seconds, an American will have a coronary event, and approximately every minute, someone will die of one. Poor Americans !!
MEN … PLEASE DO NOT FORGET
In this day and age of heart disease, we all need to be careful. Did you know that up to 50% of men will die from heart disease? Yes its FIFTY PERCENTS GUYS !!!
It is sad, but true.
What will happen to our wives, gfs, … Who will keep them company ??
So , please watch what food you eat. GOOD FOOD BAD FOOD . All of us should be concerned about what goes into our mouth.
I'm sure there will be a few BAD FOODS that you never dreamed were bad for you .
But before that let me give you the GOOD FOOD LIST first , so as NOT to choke you .
Good Foods
We all know that what we eat can help us prevent certain illnesses. We see on television all the time about people who are ill because of their diet. OR we should say lack of a diet.
When people think of health and prevention, I think some of them think about pills and their doctor. To some people, they think these are the only tools they have. That isn't true. In fact, there are more important tools for you to use. Our diet is important not just for our appearance. A good diet will decrease your chance of getting cancer and other diseases.
Think of it like this. As the old saying goes, you are what you eat.
Your body needs many things to survive. Over the long term you realize that diet is more important than ever before. and have known many people who have had cancer. A lot of these people don't smoke. They don't do drugs, rarely drink alcohol.
Also, we see on television all the time famous people getting cancer. Why are they getting cancer?
Some might say genetics and some might say pollution (including those exposed to Fat-Man A- Bomb Hiroshima & Nagasaki, and Chernobyl or Bhopal ).
Whilst some might agree it is due to diet. That's right, they get cancer because of what they eat. Perhaps it could be said better by saying, what they don't eat. Let's talk about some of the foods you should eat to help prevent cancer and other illness.
Apples
It was once said, an apple a day will keep the doctor away. This is true. Apples are loaded with vitamins A and C. They also help lower cholesterol and they lower your chance of getting cancer. Broccoli Just because a former president didn't eat this, it doesn't mean you should avoid yours. Actually, it’s one serving has 97% of your vitamin C for the day. Also, it is a good source of calcium.
Oranges
Not only do these babies taste good, but they are good for you as well. They do help in preventing colds and flus. They also help prevent many forms of cancer. .
Onions
Half of an onion a day will lower your cholesterol. Also, if you ever notice how you tear up when you cut an onion. They are good for people with asthma or other breathing problems. They open up the head so to speak. Also they fight cancer such as stomach cancer. You might not know it, but onions were once believed to be sent from god. They were believed to make people live longer and healthier. One thing you might not know is, onions reduce your risk of heart attacks and strokes.
Carrots
Carrots have beta carotene which has been known for a long time to fight cancer. Remember when you were a kid and were told to eat your carrots or you will go blind? Well, that isn't true, but they are good for the eyes.
Salmon
Out of all the fatty fish, this one is best for you. It contains omega-3 fat, which is very good for your heart. People who eat salmon at least once per week are said to have a 50% lower chance of heart attack.
Beans
You know these little devils. I used to eat them the night before going to school so I could fart all day long. Not only are these good for prostate cancer, but they also are a good source of fiber.
Seaweed
No, I don't mean a joint that you smoke while at sea. I mean the stuff that comes from the ocean ! This is loaded with iodine and other things. It has calcium, magnesium, and iron, very good for fighting cancer.
Lemons
All you have to do is go to the supermarket and see how many lemon flavored cold remedies there are to see the potential of this citrus fruit. Lemons are a great way to prevent a cold, the punch of vitamin C will keep you healthy. It is also good for sore throats.
Garlic
What doesn't this stuff do? Well, while it might not be a cure all like once believed. It does prevent almost everything under the sun. From heart disease to cancer, this is great stuff. Look up on garlic and you will be surprise of the good things it does.
Well , maybe we will come into that when the time comes …
