Who Has Time to Eat Right?

"Beloved, I wish above all things, that thou prosper and be in HEALTH, even as thy soul prospers."

III John 2

I don't know about you, but my life is very busy from being a husband, father of 5 children, Assistant Pastor and Dean at a church, business owner and public speaker, I find it very difficult to find the time to eat a proper diet.

I know I'm supposed to eat the right things, but for the past few years I just did not do a good job in eating the right things. Either I would eat a good breakfast, and then get busy during the work day and miss lunch. Or, I would rush out of the house not eating breakfast, then still get busy at work and miss lunch. Either way, I was basically starving myself during the day until dinner.

There really is no excuse! In college, Coach Paterno would make you run extra laps in practice if you missed breakfast. I would always eat a solid breakfast and lunch during my NFL career as well. Even though I have been educated through my NFL career and at Penn State about a proper diet, I find that eating a healthy balanced diet is difficult in today's society. In fact, if I wasn't taking good multi-vitamins and supplements, I know my body would not have the proper nutrition to function properly.

A couple years ago, I talked to a doctor friend of mine, Dr. Orville Campbell (http://www.claimwellness.com/), and he educated me on the fact that most current medical conditions can be fixed with a proper combination of diet, water, and work-out. Think about it, diabetes, osteoporosis, kidney disease, high blood pressure, and cholesterol can all be fixed by eating the right things! He specifically mentioned making sure you are on a whole food/organic multi-vitamin. Visit his website to see articles on the subject.

I don't know about you, but I refuse to let my body shut down on me because of either a lack of knowledge, or just not eating the right things! I have recommitted myself to live the very best life that I can to the glory of God, and live it HEALTHY! That is why I am not just talking about eating healthy, but I am educating myself, and investing in myself!
