My readers may, or may not know, that I am an absolute fanatic, (granola head, really), about food additives and toxic food. No, I’m not a skinny rail, nor vegetarian or vegan, but careful about what goes into the food I serve my family. If you’re asking what this has to do with disability, in my opinion, I’m sure everyone has their own “eat or no eat” practices. Commercial food additives are not good for any of us, and I’m just suggesting that it might be interesting to do a bit of research as to what’s on your plate. I only offer this information as a resource, you may be interested in.
The best resource I found on the Internet about food and body chemical additives is on YouTube. Bobby Parrish and his FlavCity company has many videos that explains what chemicals are not good for you, and what alternatives are out there.(https://flavcity.com)
Admittedly, the alternative foods and products are more expensive, and you don’t have to buy them, but at least you will know what’s GMO and what’s not. Other chemicals are equally as dangerous for consumption
If you’re interested, please check out Bobby’s videos. He also has an app available from the App Store that scans the bar codes of products in the store and tells you whether it’s Bobbie approved for not. I have no special interest in FlavCity and no one is paying me to promote him. I have both of his cookbooks and have found them to be very informative and interesting resources.
In the end, people will eat or not eat what they want, and sometimes people do have to “pick their poison”. Doing the best you can to eat clean and well during disability is equally as important as taking your medications. Knowing what you’re putting into your mouth is, today, more of a necessity than not.
When I write snippets like this I always have to include a waiver because someone out there is saying, “Don’t tell me what to eat!” I know because they’ve said it to me. I’m not telling anyone what they should eat, just recommending a resource if you are interested.
