A saying tells that you are what you eat. What and how we eat gives away good clues on how long you will live, how healthy you will be and how you live. In some parts of the world like Japan, a lot of people live to be over 100 years. When they looked at what they eat everyday, they found that they used a variety of fruit and vegetables with different colors and little or non meat. In the western world nearly all products contain sugar or salt. And you will find sugar in the strangest products, like fish, ketchup, milk and so on. If your aware of this, and look for products that not contain sugar, or salt. And also look for products that is ecological grown, your life will be a better one.

Eat less meat, it takes bigger areas to produce meat, and then they cut more rainforest. Think of that the next time you eat your burger or pizza.

Find yourself a local farmer that grows ecological, then you also get products that taste better, has traveled less and is more fresh, and produce natural products.
