You are absolutely right. People often think that they can continue their bad eating habits so long as they add some fruits and veggies into the mix but that isn't it. The human body is amazing and has regenerative abilities that are either hindered or supported by the food we eat. (So it is an inside job :D) Less is more - hence your advice to get rid of what we identify to be self destructive rather than adding what we think is healthy hits the nail directly on the head. Man, as much as it likes to believe has transcended nature is a child of nature and will forever be a part of nature, even if in the process we end up altering nature. Thus its reasonable to believe that nature and mankind are meant to have a symbiotic relationship. Im not a vegetarian or a vegan but after this read I realize no matter how healthy I eat if I don't cut back on all my guilty pleasure foods Im only preventing my body's natural self healing abilities. Time to take steps. Cheers!
