Can diet really effect disease?

Definitely. Adult onset diabetes is a typical example of a disease that can be brought on by poor diet. In this case, eating too much sugar, foods that convert to sugar and saturated fats are key contributors to the disease. But diet can help reverse the condition too.

Food is eaten not just for its taste. It fuels our body, it provides nutrients for every single cell to make them work to their optimum level – or it doesn’t.

Your diet can be tailored just for you to help remove whatever it is that’s causing you problems, it may be that you need to eat more berries for gout, or celery for arthritis, you may need to give up mushrooms for Candida or ice cream and chips for weight loss. Food not only effects your waist line but also your moods, energy, pain levels, skin condition and allergies. The simple power of food is fascinating.
