The food we put in our body is the building blocks for our physiology.
When we put in healthy nutrient rich foods that our bodies know how to utilize we are creating a strong physiology. The human body is a miracle in motion. There are literally hundreds of thousands of processes going on in the human body at any one time. When we fuel our body with healthy foods, these processes are efficient and the body has the resources to ongoingly heal, rejuvenate and balance itself. This results in physical health and endurance. The body is also the foundation for the emotions and the mind. When the body is healthy and functioning optimally, the mind will be clearer and focused and the emotions will be stable and more positive.
