A healthy life style means enjoying a variety of foods that provide our bodies with essential nutrients allowing us to be at our physical and mental best.
It is unfortunate when we must turn to medication for the treatment of diseases, when the underlying cause for such diseases are ignored. Stress & sickness is in many ways related to an unbalanced diet including artificial ingredients, chemicals, diets high in processed food, sugar & bad fats.
It is recommended that adults wishing to maintain a healthy lifestyle adopt eating habits similar to the Mediterranian diet, which can assist in the prevention of chronic diseases.
