My June 22 bikini and fitness competition is over but that does not mean its over yet! As mentioned in my journey to the stage blog, I've learned so much about nutrition in the past months and have been looking up different ways to get more vitamins and minerals into my body rather than hormone, pesticide and GMO foods.
Its amazing how much our food is being tampered with. Its scary to know that, most foods, if not all the food at our local grocery store is potentially toxic. Because the demand for food is much higher then many years ago, using generic food or food that has been sprayed or injected, to make it grow faster, is having a huge impact on our health. We hear it more than ever about mad cow, salmonella and foods being recalled. Not to mention what its doing to us. Cancer of all forms is the number 1 killer along with cardiovascular disease. Its scary when we begin to look up where our foods come from. Many of us believe that our meats are still being raised properly in farms, outside in the fresh air but realistically these practices are very old school and even now these big meat and food corporations want you to still believe its like that. I've done my homework and continue to learn but I've come to realize that instead of us getting the appropriate food value, we are actually getting more generic food into our bodies making us toxic.
As I explore this new journey in my life, I do want you to know that I'm in no way a natural nutritionist........... yet! All the information I will be posting about is homework I'm doing and 100% of what will be posted will be organic foods, super foods, raw foods and where we can get locally grown foods along with nutrition tips and training tips too! Always keep in mind that with anything new, its a slow process, you can't go from level 1 to level 100 in one day. Its a learning process and just with the small research I've done, I've already learned so much!! I'm really excited to share all this information and hopefully we can become less toxic and more conscious about nutrition.
