My take on one's wellness.

The opinions here are merely my humble life experiences, my take on life, path to happiness and physical wellness.

Food: Fresh is always better than processed. It is better if you can recognize the original form when you buy it. For example: fresh broccoli is better than cream of broccoli.

There is this saying, for meat eaters like myself. What swims is better than what flies, and what flies is better than what walks on all fours-translated from Chinese idiom. Seafood is better than poultry, and poultry is generally healthier than other meats like pork, beef or lamb.

It is far healthier to be a vegetarian and more economical as well.

It takes 15 pounds of grain to make one pound of beef, and not counting the water used, waste it produces. If we produced less, beef, chicken, and fish, used the energy, money and food it takes and distribute it around the world, would it solve world hunger? Would people have less obesity, diabetes, hypertension, heart disease,cancer? Would that help alleviate the strain on the global health care issue?

Are people seeing the trend that companies are spending more money advertising the health benefits of fruits and juices. Never do you see an advertisement on the health benefits from eating any kind of red meat or poultry? That means even capitalists know the distinction on what is good for you and what can sell. Would you believe it if Omaha steaks came out with an ad saying that the butter soaked stakes with the burnt fat grill marks could help reduce heart disease, hypertension?
