Harmful foods and Healing Foods - Things to know why our cells degenerate

Our body is a highly fascinating and complex mechanism. It is believed to be made up of tens of trillions of cells. If experts today fully understand the intricacies of it, we will likely be living in a disease-free world. Millions of cells are reproduced, while billions die every seconds (Yikes! degeneration rate > production rate). The preservation of our cells’ above average lifespan is therefore dependent on many factors whereby following healthy food protocols is one of them.

A healthy dose of phytonutrient meal

I love food.


Having the knowledge of keeping healthy does not mean we should deprive ourselves of sinful indulgences. However, we should still manage ourselves with such knowledge. We apply common sense and judgement, striking a balance on knowing how much to consume and when to stop overindulgence. It is called discipline, and if we VALUE the knowledge we posses, we can achieve a strong state of mind to overcome any weakness or food craving.


To keep healthy everyday is highly challenging. I get exhausted many times from the time I shop for the groceries, to sanitize, to prepare, to cook and to deliver it on the table, and finally to clean up the dishes. Eating out too often is also a challenge where I could hardly find many places that can offer me a wholesome meal of phytonutrients. Here, I mean a meal for one person with lots of vegetables that comes in a variety. Tough to find? Well not so :)
