Because you are what you consume.
For a good portion of our lives, we’ve been told that “we are what we eat.”
When I was a child, my mom would sit me down and give me an earful before force-serving leafy greens onto my plate. The struggle to keep them down was real.
Now that I’m an adult, one might imagine that times have changed. But my mom hasn’t. She would still refuse to take no for an answer.
She’s right though. Our physical and mental well-being depends a lot on a healthy, balanced diet.
But, it isn’t the only thing that has the potential to define who we are and what we would become.
There are other things that are equally important.
Allow me to break them down as follows:
1) Food Consumption — the composition of your diet determines the composition of your body.
An apple a day, keeps the doctor away.
Confession: I can’t remember the last time I ate an apple.
