Contribute or Contaminate

I have been talking alot about diet this week with it being the new year and all. I seem to sing the praises of eating healthy and eating food that is not processed. The more man has to do with it the worse it seems to be. I have come up with a phrase that just seems to stick in my mind and it is this: Contribute don't Contaminate! I can't think of a better way to describe how you should be eating. Foods that contaminate would be any thing that is overly processed, comes from a drive thru window or you can put gravy on it! Hey it is Texas and we do put gravy on everything. A more substantial list would be soda, fried foods, sugary sticky foods, foods made with white flour, full fat dairy and again things that you pick up in a drive thru window. All of these items sit in your stomach and do nothing to nourish your body.
Foods that contribute would be whole grains, fresh fruits and vegetables, lean cuts of meat, poultry and fish, low fat dairy items and plain water. These foods will distribute through the body and make you feel GREAT not BLOATED!
The next time you are at the grocery store or making dinner or sitting down for dinner just think...Contribute don't Contaminate!
Show up and make it count!
