Stop Feeding Disease!

Greater health benefits can be achieved by avoiding or eliminating unhealthy foods. In other words, consuming a handful of almonds does not affect your body the same as a handful of candy.

Processed foods disproportionately contribute to obesity, insulin resistance, and high blood pressure.
