You Are What You Eat
Health is a manifestation of the complex interplay between the physical, mental and emotional aspects of one’s life. Food affects the way you feel and behave, and every meal you eat regulates your mood, genes, hormones and biochemistry.
Food is energy that provides the building blocks to create new cells and repair the body. But food is also information. Cells instruct each other how to grow, move and respond to threats by talking to each other in a complex language of chemical messages such as hormones.
When there are imbalances in our diet or underlying health problems that affect the absorption of essential nutrients, this can lead to deficiencies that result in problems in cell communication that give rise to chronic illness.
