Food Sensitivity & Intolerance!

The majority of us – if not all of us – suffer from food sensitivity or outright intolerance of particular foods or entire genres of food at some point in our lives.

The following segment, which aired recently on The Dr. OZ Show “Could You Have a Hidden Food Allergy?” is worth your time:

Recklessness Can Be Subtle!

Reckless behavior is most obvious when it’s on the big stage – driving under the influence while ignoring traffic laws for instance. But it’s frequently more subtle, yet, with consequences just as dire; minor decisions made that eventually have devastating consequences. Processed food, instead of consuming whole food. Pursuing short term pleasure, instead of long term happiness. Thinking too much about ourselves and not enough about others. Disloyality, instead of showing loyality. Rude behavior, instead of courtesy. Recklessness at this level is more likely to be our problem.

Personally Determined!

Fate refers to external forces outside of our personal control that pre-determine the outcome regardless of our personal efforts; there are certainly things outside of our control but the outcome is more frequently personally determined. The food we eat, the habits we follow, the choices we make, can and frequently do determine the outcome. For instance, how and what we consume certainly determines how we age and the length of our longevity, as well as the quality of our life as we age. Our fate is not predetermined… we should make good decisions based on what we want to happen, instead of pretending that we don’t hold the reigns.
