Nutrition and Disease

I Like Living Do You?

         Our bodies are vessels protecting everything inside that's keeping us alive.  So why not take care of what's inside of us?  Without the proper nutrition our body becomes malnourished which then becomes prone to infections and diseases.  Fore example, a diet high in saturated fat and simple sugars will lead to high blood pressure and clogged arteries.  This opens the door for cardio vascular disease and other heart issues.  

          Not all diseases can be prevented.  For example cancer and diabetes can be determined by genetics which has nothing to do with a person's nutritional diet.  However, by eating a well balanced diet we help prevent such diseases which promotes a longer life.  So why wouldn't you eat healthy?  If not healthy then whey not healthyish?  I don't know about you, but I enjoy living.
