Does the food you eat really affect your health?

Does the food you eat really affect your health?

I don’t know if people are in denial or they simply don’t want to know how much food really does affect them...but I will tell you right now, up front, yes, food does in fact affect your health...and in very dramatic ways. And it is our role as moms to teach our children...to lead them in creating healthy habits.

To help them understand the relationship...the connection between the foods they eat and the health of their body... the connection between the foods they eat and how they feel.

So this is my little message to you, mamas! My encouragement to you to keep on leading your family in healthy habits because it will have a lifetime of repercussions...and even generational repercussions!

One of the biggest things for us is to understand that the way we are feeling is NOT the way we ought to be feeling. I didn’t realize that I wasn’t supposed to be feeling bloated and gassy and uncomfortable all the time. Listen, Indigestion, bloating, cramping....you name it...these are sooo so common in the general American public....and it is not supposed to be part of the normal everyday human experience.

It’s due to a lot of things....but one of the biggest culprits is the foods that we are eating.

Sooo, if we can teach our kids while they are young that there is, in fact, a direct relationship between what we eat and how we feel – our overall health, they will be better off over the long haul.

Gut health is SO important!!
