Is it really possible to be healthier in a month? How many times have we heard that you can lose weight in three days or cure acne in two? Such claims are outlandish, but I stand by the fact that you can be healthier in a month. Why do I say this?
If today you give up all the artificial ingredients and sugar in your diet, you’ll be healthier in a month. You have to get a big box, or two, and throw out all the nonfoods in your kitchen. My wife and I did this twenty years ago and never looked back. You know why? Because the first phase of cleaning out your body is CLEANING OUT YOUR PANTRY AND FRIDGE.
Artificial ingredients — from hidden MSG in sauces to preservatives in baked goods to artificial sweetners — are destroying your health. And they’ve built up a home inside your body over the years.
This is a challenge FOR your health. Get a box and get to work. You’ll feel better right away.
Scientific findings show that artificial ingredients, refined sugar and bad fats cause artery deterioration, joint problems, headaches, sexual dysfunction, skin problems and a lot more. If this is all new to you, my professional advice is to replace all your foods with ones that do not contain anything artificial. Organic is your best bet. If your bread lists a slew of chemical additives that you can be sure it’s not meant to be eaten, so DON’T EAT IT. There are organic replacements for your favorite chips, cereal, soup in a can, chocolate bar, ice cream and crackers.
Once you make the replacement by getting rid of foods with toxins, your body can get to work getting rid of the toxins stored within you from eating artificial and processed ingredients for years and years. This will make you at least a degree healthier. The next step after this is to start eating several helpings of fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds every day. But first thing’s first — get rid of the artificial ingredients and you’ll be healthier within a month.

I am a chef, certified personal trainer and a mom. I have discovered that the mindset regarding eating is the most important thing, not necessarily the diet methods that don’t fit you. I discovered this when trying to get my toddler to eat and wrote a book about it – Diet Secrets of A Toddler, By Laura Andolini. It is on my website if you are interested. http://www.cooking-for-fitness.com , or amazon.com. I hope you enjoy it!
