Nature has provided us natural food (fresh whole fruits, vegetables, grains, seeds, nuts, beans, and legumes). They are the perfect foods for our bodies to thrive and survive. After all, we are part of nature and, as such, we are designed to live by eating natural foods. While we can certainly survive on processed foods, surviving on these foods alone for good health is not feasible.
Man-made or synthetic foods, or any foods that have been highly sugared, salted, and processed, are devoid of many of the nutrients and vital substances necessary for optimal health. Foods as close to their natural state, or as nature intended them to be eaten, are, on the contrary, rich in nutrients, healthy minerals that sustain us and give us energy, as well as cleanse the blood and organs.
Fresh, raw fruits and vegetables are also full of nature’s ‘life force’, the energy of the sun and together with the vital vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients they contain lead to a positive and natural state of vitality and physical and mental health. .
