Have you ever heard the phrase, "Adapt or Die!"? It is a pretty simple concept in which we depend on every second of every day. Our body is constantly adapting. If it failed to do so . . . we would die. I mentioned this before, but too often one says, "I don't need that, I'm already healthy." If we, as in individual, and even as a society, are not adapting, changing, improving, can we really say that we are healthy? Too often, one remains in that mind set, thinking they are healthy and fine with their lifestyle when in reality they have been exposed to complications they are unaware of. These are the quiet killers. These are the cardiac diseases, the neurological diseases, and the cancers that so many face today that often go undetected before its too late. Prevention is ignored with the phrase, "It won't happen to me."
Interesting note: The nutritional initials used for Standard American Diet is SAD - Yes, it is
We are healthy no because we never fall sick but because we can recover and be healed again and again after we fell sick. SAD can deviate into Sad American Diet? no malice intended. :)
