Did you know that sound nutrition not only feeds our bodies and minds it fights disease, and in the long run could help you save money and even improve the economy. 

In the early part of the previous century over weight was a sign of wealth. Those who were able to afford excessive amonunts of food wanted the world to see they could afford to over eat. 

Times have changed the wealthy most often show it in less health – damaging ways. Now however according to the Journal of American Medical Association, low income families and individuals are more likely to be overweight. While saving dollars at the till maybe on their minds, the long term cost to them is far greater. 

A diet of low quality, processed foods is the main reason for low income obesity. The problem comes from the low nutritional value, robbing the body of energy, and causing returning hunger. So these individuals have to buy more to satisfy the body’s need for nutrients.Only when the body has the nutrients it requires does it switch off its hunger signal. 

The financial savings gained from buying cheap processed foods quickly evaporates. 

Consuming processed foods over long periods of time contributes to long term health risks. Type ll diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis and cardiovascular disease may develop. The drugs needed to treat these ailments cost thousands of dollars per month. They may alleviate the symptoms, while the underlying disease continues to progress. What caused the disease is most often not addressed. 

Replacing refined processed foods with natural, whole food is a form of health insurance. Foods that up the health odds in your favour include colourful fresh vegetable, fruits and plant based proteins. 

Start your day with a nutrient packed smoothie. This will ensure your body will receive the health and performance benefits the plant – based whole foods offer. A smoothie with the right ingredients can be rich in alkaline – forming complete protein, essential fatty acids, fibre, antioxidants, phytonutrients and trace minerals – the building blocks of superior health. 

Improve Health, Increase Productivity.

Corporate America are finding out that healthier employees are more productive. People in this generation are developing disease earlier in life, placing a burden on the health care system.  This contributes to higher taxes, decreased spending, and a sluggish economy.

While there are other contributing factors, a continent comprised of unhealthy people inevitably becomes unhealthy economically.Google is one company amongst many that  understands that improved health and happiness of employees will improve their bottom line. 

Companies that don’t embrace this holistic approach to well – being and productivity will eventually not be able to compete with the productive ones that do, and will have to answer to share holders. 

The fact that health and wellness is beginning to be viewed as having economic value is exciting.
