Stop Damaging Your Body!!! You Are Guilty!!!

 It is important that you eat right and break free from damaging your God given body. Not only will you lose shape you will always be a recipient of all sort of diseases and illnesses that should have been prevented by eating right. A lot of times we ignore our fruits and veggies and I am the number one guilty culprit. I just joined a health group and we are currently on a fruit and veggies challenge. I have gone on a rampage to research on the benefits of eating raw and this is what I have come up with for you. There is more to raw foods than what you think. I just remembered that when Jesus was hungry he tried to eat a fig and not rice or beans. When God put Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, he said all the fruits of the trees they could eat, he never told them to eat the animals or cook rice and beans! So hey there is more to that fruit than what you think. Try one today and tell me your experience. Click to see my discoveries. Happy reading after the cut.


Strawberries a pretty heart healthy eating just a handful a day can help control type 2 diabetes as well as heart disease and inflammation. Bursting with vitamin C strawberries easily claim the position of the most popular super fruit. They are not just beautiful but healthy as well so go grab yours now!


Who ever knew that plums lowers anxiety. Had a hard day at work? Feeling stressed or anxious? Plums are the answer. They contain an antioxidant called chlorogenic acid which scientist say can help decrease anxiety related tension or stress. so the next time you are stressed grab your plump plum.






Citrus fruits like oranges, limes, lemons etc have many therapeutic benefits due to their detoxifying nature . They are known for their flavour, fragrance and juiciness. Rich in vitamin C, good source of mineral, carbohydrates and fibres. They also contain calcium, copper, folate, potassium, magnesium, Niacin, vitamin B6, riboflavin,pantothenic acid and other things required for the proper functioning of the body.




Banana contains 3 natural sugars sucrose, fructose and glucose combined with fiber. A banana gives an instant, sustained and substantial burst of energy. Research has shown that 2 bananas provide enough energy for a strenuous 90-minute workout! Energy is not the only benefit of eating a banana a day, it can help overcome or prevent a substantial number of illnesses. Check this out:
