Being healthy is a lifestyle. Adopting new and healthy habits is difficult, let it be a challenging adventure.

A good diet not only maintains health, promotes growth and provides energy, it is also our chief natural protection against disease. Nutritionists, say take care, when cooking, the nutrient value is not destroyed. Do not mix too many foods at the same meal, particularly raw foods; raw fruits and vegetables require different gastric juices from other foods, and are better eaten at different times.

Eat only when hungry, even if it means missing a meal; nature has provided a built-in mechanism to tell you when you should eat or drink; food eaten without appetite does little good.

One to two glasses of raw juices a day are of tremendous benefit to the system.
