I was reading in the newspaper from Sunday that there are THOUSANDS of people in the U.S. alone that die each year because they did not receive a vital organ transplant. HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS are waiting at any given time. 10% of them are children. SO SAD!!!!!! WHY aren't more people organ donors??? And, WHY aren't we taking better care of ourselves?!?!?!?!?! Not only do I not want to be in the place where I'm waiting for an organ, but I also don't want to ruin myself so bad that when I die no one can utilize my body parts. If I died in a wreck today, would anyone be able to use my heart? Am I healthy enough for that? If my little girl got so sick that she needed a kidney and I was the only match, would they even be able to use it for her? (Oh GOD! I pray she never does!!! But, I want to be able if necessary.)
Saying that, here's 15 foods you should avoid if you want to live longer... Or help others live longer.
1. ANYthing with high fructose corn syrup
2. Same for corn syrup
3. Sugar
4. Beef that's given hormones and feed a corn-only diet
5. Milk from the same
6. Corn (or anything) that's been genetically modified
7. White potatoes
8. White flour
9. White Rice
10. MSG & all the other ingredients that are the same thing
11. A lot of soy byproducts
12. Pork
13. ANYthing with the word "diet" in it
14. Pre-packaged foods ... Seriously!
15. Any of the conventional vegetables that hold a large amount of pesticides -- what good is it to eat kale (which fights cancer) if it holds so many pesticides that it's going to give you cancer? (There are a few veggies that you really should ONLY buy organic!!!!)
... Even though, I'm not going to lie, I don't like organic spinach as much =(
We're not 100% on this list, mostly out of being too poor for an all-organic diet, but we're working on it =) I want to either live longer, or help others do so.
