Nutrition and Your Health
You really are what you eat!
Most of the cells in your body are constantly regenerating.
The human body is producing 3.8 million cells every second … 330 billion cells are replaced every day … 30 trillion cells will have been replenished after 100 days … mind-blowing ….
Your body uses the nutrients in the foods you eat to build these new cells. Due to this rapid cell turnover, and the production of new cells, you really are what you eat.
To keep your body healthy:
Eat more fruits and veggies
Eat more nuts, beans, lentils, and fish
Eat more whole and ancient grains- quinoa, couscous, oats, barley, amaranth, millet, kamut, sorghum, teff, farro
Drink more water
Eat less sugar
