EATING GOOD...LIVING LONG!


OK my girls(and boys of course) so in order to have a whopping 72% less chance of getting cancers and other illnesses we need to eat more food that is good for us! I am really into the doctor shows as of late and have been trying to be more healthy and listening to their advice.

You are to eat:

Broccoli
Tomatoes
Kale
Spinach
Fish
Garlic
Leafy Green Lettuces
Dark Chocolate
Red Wine(in moderation of course)
Blueberries
Grapefruit
Green Tea
Walnuts


These are the BIG ones(among others). I am trying to incorporate these into my diet. I know I want to live a long, healthy life and I am sure you do too! After I got lupus my outlook on life changed. You really never ever know when illness or disease will fall upon you. It is not something for the old but something that can happen to anyone at any age. I have been fighting my illness for a few years now and a lot of it has to do with diet and what you put into your body. I am not thin by any means but I try to eat healthy foods as much as I can since I have gotten sick and it really does help:-) I don't want to lose any of you and as I am trying to be healthier now I want you all to as well as I DO NOT want to lose any of you:-) I am lucky as I LOVE all these foods so it won't be a problem to incorporate them into my life. It is so hard to think into the future until something bad happens to us but I am asking you to. I know some of you are having babies or have had babies and the health of their mother is sooooo important so cheers to being healthy and eating good!

Cheers to living a long life my friends!
