over 50? How is your heart? A quick poll on a very relevant subject.

[OrignlGaminGeneration (OGG)]

I did turn 50 in Jan 2018. I never had heart trouble due to eating more fruits and veggies and cutting out more and more processed foods and meats over the last few years. This change in diet has made a difference in my energy level as well. I have found eating what I call live organic foods ( veggies) from the farmers market has improved my over all health ( even though I still need to lose 80 pounds of weight or 36-37 kg from eating the wrong foods for 40 plus yrs), but I stay away from GMO veggies and the Corporate farmed veggies due to their chemical fertilizer use. I have been looking into doing my own garden/greenhouse as well. You might want to look into some research on the benefits of live foods vs processed foods and make changes according to what you want to accomplish in your health and well being. The weirdest change that I have made is that I eat Kale for breakfast and at night for a snack. It is a heavy textured leafy veggie that has a little bitter after taste BUT has one of the highest antioxidants of any single live food. Here is one movie that might get you started and it is called "Foods that Cure Disease". The maker of this video made it a little irritating by having cut in recipe vids in the middle of the informational interviews. I recommend that you fast forward past the recipe vids so as not to lose the momentum of the health information people are seeking. Then go back to the recipe vids when you want to give them a try. All the high end Cancer Treatment Facilities have live foods as part of their treatment of all cancers and also teach that processed sugar is fuel for cancer cells, and they teach about the benefits of live foods on the human body as a whole including food impact on the heart.
Good luck.
