Food To Chew On:

Faith and Works

James 2:17 (NKJV)

 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

Thought For The Day:

“I believe the Gospel. I love the Lord Jesus. I want to give all that I have and am to help the suffering”—George Moore.

As we continue to eat right and exercise we are now flying high on some good food and a new way of living…

Five Things You Should Never Eat (And What To Eat Instead)

5 Do Not Eat: White Sugar

Sugar and high fructose corn syrup are the epitome of anti-fitness food. Nothing will destroy your progress, expand your waist and plummet your energy levels like sugar. If you only take away one do-not-eat food from this slideshow, please let it be sugar.

Why Going Gluten Free Can Be Unhealthy

Soy: Soy products used to be all the rage in the health community, but this cheap and commonly used gluten-free food is high in phytoestrogens which can cause distress in the body.

Sugar: Just like fat-free foods, gluten-free foods can be loaded with added sugars. It's no secret that refined sugars are anything but healthy.

Vegetable and industrial seed oils: Vegetable oil, canola oil, rapeseed oil, safflower oil, and sunflower oil are inexpensive and used in just about all boxed foods, including ones marketed "gluten free." These oils are high in omega-6 polyunsataturated fatty acids (PUFAs).

The point is that a healthy gluten-free diet includes a nutrient dense, anti-inflammatory dose of healthy fats and proteins, organic produce and grain-free flour alternatives such as almond flour, coconut flour and hazelnut flour. When going gluten free is done wrong, it's the overpriced food version of diet soda; just as unhealthy as the original, if not more.
