Healthiest Foods on Earth
In order to get the most out of our bodies, we must be knowledgeable about what we are putting into it. Each body has different demands made on it, so each body requires different food and nutrients to be put into it. Being informed about the healthiest food options is the first step to prolonging the health and wellness of your body, from the inside out. Earth is 24,000 miles around at the equator, which leaves lots of room to grow the healthiest foods the planet has to offer, meanwhile, many of us still flock to the “Healthy Aisle” at best at our local food store rather than a local farmer’s market, or even growing food in our own backyard. I get it, not everyone has a green thumb. And not everyone has the list of the healthiest foods on earth, either man made or supplied from our own home planet.
