Becoming A Healthy Eater
Becoming A Healthy Eater
Being a healthy eater requires you to become both educated and smart about what healthy eating actually is. Being food smart isn't about learning to calculate grams or fat, or is it about studying labels and counting calories.
Healthy eating is all about balanced and moderate eating, consisting of healthy meals at least three times per day. Healthy eaters eat many different types of foods, not limiting themselves to one specific food type or food group.
Eating healthy requires quite a bit of leeway. You might eat too much or not enough, consume foods that are sometimes more or less nutritious. However, you should always fuel your body and your brain regularly with enough food to keep both your mind and body strong and alert.
A healthy eater is a good problem solver. Healthy eaters have learned to take care of themselves and their eating with sound judgement and making wise decisions. Healthy eaters are always aware of what they eat, and know the effect that it will have on their bodies.
When someone is unable to take control of their eating, they are also likely to get out of control with other aspects of life as well. They could end up spending too much, talking too much, even going to bed later and later.
You should always remember that restricting food in any way is always a bad thing. Healthy eating is a way of life, something that you can do to enhance your body or your lifestyle. If you've thought about making your life better, healthy eating is just the place to start. You'll make life easier for yourself, those around you, and even your family.

When I saw the new video of sheep that had been exported from Australia being killed in Jordan, I felt sick to my stomach. The video shows terrified sheep, some of whom are clearly too weak to stand, being dragged out of pens by their hind legs or tails and beaten severely before their throats are slashed. Children throw rocks at them as they shake in fear; they slip in pools of blood and scream as they try to get away from the men murdering them.
The Australian government says that animals that are exported live from the country are treated humanely -- does this sound humane to you?
We already knew that the live export of farm animals from the country was a risk to animals as they travelled. But now we have proof that once the animals get to their destination, at least some will be slaughtered in the most horrifying way possible. How much more cruelty will we take?
It's time for us to stand against this abuse once and for all. Sign the petition to hold these sheep killers accountable for their actions and stop live export in Australia.
