If You Love Them

If You Love Them

      A man who escaped from a communist country was ask what the consequences to his family would be.  " Death ! " was the reply. "Death for your entire family?"  "Yes,' he responded, "but the only family I had left was my wife."  "Then she will be killed?"  the man smiled slowly, "Yes....the perfect crime!"
      A fate worse than death is a long lingering illness, for an individual, for all their loved ones, and especially for the loved ones religateded to the role of care giver. A debilitating health problem, over a span of years causes incredible stress and often results in extended illness or early death for those left behind, after the patient is gone.   
      The best solution, is prevention in the first place. Eating a wide range of many colors, and textures of vegetables, and good clean protein, three times a day, determining the amount of complex carbohydrates (like grains, potatoes, sweet potatoes) depending on metabolism and physical activity levels, minimizing sugar, wheat, corn and dairy, staying away from processed and fast foods, eating organic, and exercising can make the difference between a long and healthy life and sentencing ones self, and loved ones, to a fate worse than death.  
So, if you aren't motivated to take care of yourself for yourself, do it for the ones you love.
