Sometimes I think that we need to eat each bite knowing the nutrients that we are putting in our body are the best we can give it. Most people mindlessly eat. The transition to raw foods is hard in a lot of ways, but the hardest part is getting used to the flavor. We have all been eating cooked foods for so long we no longer have the right taste buds for the real food! It might be gross or we might try to stay clear of things we "don't" like, but really it's just adjusting to the taste of nature! So lets give it a try and as you eat your raw meal today to be concious of each bite we take, and realize the good in it, and to be sure we chew it up enough as well, chewing is the part that brings out all the nutrients. Thats why we love raw smoothies, it does the chewing for us to give our mandables a little break until we are used to chewing our food up better. As it can be slightly painful!
Breakfast today: Smoothie
1/2 banana
small hanful of blueberries
4 frozen strawberries
1/4 cup of orange juice
a few slices of pinapple
and a small handful of fresh spinach
It was delicious, and nutritious.
