Michael Pollan has said, “Don’t eat anything your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize as food.” According to my Grandma, it wasn’t food. Her diet would throw out most of mine.
We both had differing opinions on what food and a proper diet consisted of to nourish us. I could scoff at her diet, but she was happy and lived long enough to meet several great-grandchildren. By the end of her life, the fact that she was eating was more important than what she consumed.
Diet is just one area of health. We also have fitness, stress level, sleep, and mental attitude. Each area with experts telling us that the secret lies in their own course. You’ll be thin, happy, and have everything you want if you invest your money with them and stay away from these key items that you love. Then we go from expert to expert as each one fails us. It becomes overwhelming and frustrating.
