But can you really do it.  The odds  may be against you. Perhaps that’s why the naughty foods are winning  you over in the market place. Every day, every where you go,  where you  eat,  or where you  shop.

Perhaps I should put a definition to whats classified as naughty foods. Some would say there are no naughty foods if you eat in moderation, perhaps they are right. So if you eat one backyard greasy hamburger a year, its not going to make a difference, now if you are eating 2 Big Macs every day, that’s another story.So by example if you take a food that creates a health problem do to excessive amounts, then it could become your Naughty food.

Naughty foods seem to come in the fast food category much more frequently,  the chips, candy bars, hamburgers, french fries, soda pop, and many more, because they easily consumed and quick to run with when you are on the go.

 The marketing with vending machines ,recognized this, and fill their machines full of the naughty stuff. They then place them in strategic locations!   Have you ever noticed how they always happened to be in places or businesses where you have to wait for periods of time or they know you are going to work up an appetite.

If you have had children attending various functions, like basketball games, or football games, even dance recitals, there seems always to be venders selling their hamburgers or hot dogs,what is a game with out those folks.

 The last time I went to the gas station,  thinking about this article, before me,there was the donuts, candy bars, snacks, right in my face. How do people resist? There were several shelves full of different temptations, by the check out stands, forcing ones eyes to stare upon them.

 My last example  is to look at  a restaraunt menu’s and see the space that is dedicated to the Naughty Foods and you have to search or even have to ask if they even have something that is good for you ( Nice food). If they do not , do you walk out, or order anyway. Do not answer that one, for I already know what most folks do.

I personally believe that most people prefer the taste of naughty food over nice food,  going down the hatch. We then mentally excuse oursevles for the unwritten crime we just committed to our body. Having not what it takes to fight off  the temptations, no will power is needed to say no, shame on us, we are just giving in. You know you heard all the lines, you just could not resist, its just one time, I’ll do better tomorrow.

Unless we all find the way to our own personal strength to say no, the obesity epidemic that is becoming known to most, because we are part of it, will continue to have a dramatic impact on our lives.

WHY?

The fact is… More and more people are unhealthily overweight! “It is to the very  point where eating can and is actually endangering our lives.”

 There has always been some individuals that have eaten unhealthily, mainly because, “Naughty Foods Taste So Good”!  Now the population as a whole,  considering how we eat these days, are we are getting the right amounts of nutrients.

Is it our conscious thought about what we put into our bodies … essential?

Why another article on  a subject that  everybody claims to know but doesn’t want to listen! The answer is, if this just reaches just one persons conscious thought and  results in taking action , than it was all worth it.

Perhaps before our intake of all those naughty foods, which are loaded with all those calories and sugars, you know the ones I am talking about, the ones some people would die for (literally), a bell would go off in our heads, saying “What I am about to eat is hazardous  to my health”!

For some people, warning labels…are just another part of the lable or the fine print that doesn’ t get read anyway, let alone it’s grams of sugar or it’s calorie count. Our consensus is most people eat by what may make them feel good, or by how sweet it is, or how good it taste going down, or just how much I can eat, based on my emotion at the time.

If some one has come up as to why obesity is becoming  a major concern…is because food is readily available  in most countries, unlike the underdeveloped countries where many face starvation. Those countries who proclaim to live in the land of plenty…eat with same mentality…plenty.

As we get older, our metabolism slows down and we can no longer burn calories at the same rate as we used to. Fact, it makes it easier for us to put on weight but harder for us to shed it. Having said that, our elderly group face the greatest effect of being over weight. Being overweight can put unnecessary stress on the joints and thus accelerate the affects of arthritis, osteoporosis and other bone and muscle disorders and illnesses. It can also bring about the onset of diabetes, which is more common in seniors than in any other age group as it is.

While a  little of what he or she loves to eat, no matter how unhealthy it may be, a regular balanced nutritious diet is just what the doctor orders!

A well balanced diet can boost your health, but a poor diet that does not fulfil all bodily nutritional requirements can actually cause it to deteriorate.

All should enjoy life to the fullest extent, but eating healthily on a regular basis can actively extend the amount of time you have left to enjoy it! Make the most of  life. Revolutionize your diet and reap the rewards
