Healthy Living vs Dieting
Everyone gets to the point where they know they need to make a change. For me, I know that I need to be healthy. I need to know that one day I will wake up and be better. Of course, it doesn't happen overnight. You can't just decide cold turkey that you are going to give up on food completely. But it takes time. And lots of planning. And even more water. Water. Water. WATER.

A Low Calorie Count Myth
Trying to lose weight or cut your calorie intake but nothing is working? Keep decreasing how many calories you eat every day but you still bloat and feel less energy? Replacing some of your meals with snacks but still can't fit into your favorite pair of jeans? Try to compromise your 1 can of pop for 1 ZERO calorie soda and your weight doesn't improve at any measure? Maybe it's not so much the amount of calories you are eating, but the kind of calories you eat. Maybe many know this and maybe many don't, but sometimes it's the more you eat that determines how much weight you will lose, and what kind of weight you will keep.

Food to Feed a Village
The first time I saw this fruit, I wondered how hard it would be to hack it open and how it tastes. It's called jackfruit, and it's big! It is native to India and is related to figs. It's about the size of a human head, with a more oval shape. It has dull spikes all over its surface. Due to its size (up to 80 lbs!!) and high nutritional value, it has been called "the fruit that could eliminate world hunger." The seeds and flesh inside are edible. The three best nutritional qualities that stood out to me were the potassium (739 mg), vitamin C (37 percent) and B6 (25 percent) per serving, which is one cup of sliced fruit/seeds. There are 31g of sugar, but that is raw, plant based sugar, which is a lot healthier than processed sugar.

Fall Fruits & Vegetables Fight Diabetes?
It seems that a lot of diabetics in society shy away from the natural sweetness of fall fruits. Some are afraid that fruits and vegetables will increase their blood sugar. In turn they believe that the increase in blood sugar will jeopardize their health. This type of thinking is wrong and misinformed. In truth, fruits and vegetables harvested in the fall offer many benefits to people who have type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

The Last Thing You Need to Read to Finally Go Vegan
Loved ones are getting cancer; adults—as well as children—are dealing with obesity; heart disease has become the number one killer. America is struggling. These health issues, that are flourishing in many families today, can all be minimized or eliminated entirely by consuming plant-based foods, instead of animal-based foods. Although there are valid concerns about soy products and vitamin deficiencies associated with veganism, such a lifestyle promotes excellent health. Veganism also benefits the environment and shows compassion for animals, making it an admirable lifestyle.
