Live food...

When I think of live whole foods the first things that pop into my head are, fruits and veteables. They are alive because how else can they grow? They continue to grow until we pick them or until they fall off because of being over ripe. So to me that seems significant.

Most of us are getting our food from the grocery store, after the fruits and vegetables have already been picked off the plant...who knows how long it's been like that either? From being picked to being shipped to finally being put on the shelves and then into our homes...all that time, just think of how long it's been dying because it's not connected to it's life force that helps it grow and live.

So by the time it goes into our bodies the food is already dead and we're eating dead food.

I've been contemplating this process quite a bit lately, it seems hard to find a solution except to grow your own food and eat is as quickly as possible after you harvest the food. I know that there aren't many people nowadays that have that luxery however...so I'm wondering what most of us can do to get the live whole foods our body needs.

I will blog more on this later however after I think through a few more things...

Have a nice day!
