Wake-up Call For Wellness
One food industry group is reporting that the current economic climate is turning into a wake-up call for wellness.
Food industry research analyst Christopher Shanahan said that consumers are increasingly focused on ways to avoid becoming ill due to the economic downturn. “There is a growing interest in health and wellness products.”
This article gives the point of view of the food industry, which is interested in “functional foods”, “fortified products”, and other processed foods that have long shelf lives and maximize profit for the industry. Fair enough.
For you and I, it is wonderful that we are starting to think about wellness more … that we are starting to focus on prevention more … and that we are taking steps to live a healthier life in the long term. I love that.
Just don’t fall prey to the gimmicks. Find the “Real Foods”, not the “Faux Foods”. Eat clean, in control, and you’ll give your body the best chance it has for optimal health. Daily fruit and vegetable consumption is your path to a well life, every day.
