All right, I'm creating this blog for all those who are venturing into organic eating, vegetarianism, veganism, or other similiar lifestyles, especially if you happent to live in an area not exactly suited to doing so. (Like Gillette, WY.)
As a disclaimer, I am not 100% vegetarian, nor vegan. I have done a LOT of research, and have come to realize that our bodies have an amazing ability to heal itself from nearly every chronic disease known to stump modern medicine, when given the correct tools and nutrition. I have seen diabetes, cancer, heart disease, and many other both serious and non-debilitating illnesses healed from within.
I have also witnessed the effects of a lifetime of eating processed (non)foods. I call them (non)foods as they are nutritionally depleted, hallow shells of what "food" really is. I have seen the effects in my extended family through cancer, heart disease, diabetes, depression, stroke, high blood pressure and who knows what else. I refuse to allow the cycle to continue in my own family! The bible says "He knows the good that he ought to do, and does not do it, sins." To me, this is all the reason I need to provide healthy, nutritious meals to my little family.
I believe in eating as much raw, organic plant based food as possible. I also believe that it is nearly impossible, no matter where you live, to do so all the time. I am not militant, just informed and willing to do the most that I can.
So I guess this blog is going to be a mash-up of recipes, thoughts, opinions and ideas on how to transition to a healthier lifestyle, as we stumble through it ourselves.
Happy reading! And eating. =)
