Most people have no idea how good their body is designed to feel. - Kevin Trudeau

To be honest, I was one of those.

I thought: Screw it, I'm a sporty girl I can eat what I want! Well I needed to learn the hard way that this was not true. Exercise is important but it can't replace a healthy nutrition. We need both!

Since I'm facing some serious health issues, my point of view about food and nutrition has made a three-sixty. I lived quite healthy when I was at the end of my twenties, but during the past years a certain carefreeness has slipped in my nutrition schedule.

That simple-mindedness has come to an end now.

Time to wake up and embrace the great benefits of a healthy lifestyle!

Health requires healthy food

It's as simple as that.

First of all a healthy life requires awareness. We need to fully comprehend that the stuff we put into our body is crucial for its functionality.

We may all have our period of time where we unheedingly enjoy eating fast food - just because we can. Still it's important to recognize that this can't be a permanent condition in our lives.

It's not a short term diet, it's a conscious long term lifestyle change.

A healthy outside starts from the inside

We may be experts in pimping our physical appearance, style and image. But real energy, charisma and vibes are a mirror of how we feel inside ourselves.

The best make-up in the world won't be able to cover a constant lack of sleep, missing exercise, and an unhealthy nutrition schedule as well as the following physical and mental disequilibrium.

Sometimes we need a wake-up call to remember what really matters.

Food is fuel to your well-being and happiness!

I regret eating healthy today.... said no-one ever.

Because it's just the other way around. Everybody who has ever started to focus on a well-balanced nutrition, will agree: it's able to move mountains. Well it's able to LET YOU literally move mountains :-)

Cheers to a conscious lifestyle and a great weekend full of energy, steemians!

Remember: you're body is your vehicle - the only one capable to navigate you through this unique, inimitable and impressive life of yours.

Much love,
Marly -
