bad medicine

going back to basics so that i went from eating whatever i felt like to what i knew was good for me even though i didn't like it to being able to put the raw fresh ingredients i buy into a pan and let them slowly cook to create my meals for a week today.

Cabbage, Parsnips, from the duchy organic farm, turmeric, ginger, broccoli, carrots, onion and garlic from the garden. All slowly cooking so that i can take it with me wherever i go yum.

Making my own chocolate because I know what goes into it by melting coconut oil (and cacao butter if you can get it) into a pan and adding the cacao powder which is strong dark stuff and then turning off the low heat to mix in enough of a vegan sweetener (this week brown rice syrup last week date syrup) so that it doesn't taste quite so bitter and add whatever you like to that knowing you are eating a health food daily from now on.

Learning that shop bought things are merely fake versions of the foods we used to love to eat, they look and taste like they are what they say they are, but pies aren't just pastry, meat and potatoes, and cakes aren't just eggs flour and sugar and everything you can think of is just the cheapest ingredients put together in such a way that it'll last on the shelf for a long time and when you eat it you will think that is a healthy cheap food.

We are wrong to swallow what we are being fed, we are being given no option because ingredients are expensive, so grow your own, buy in bulk, make it yourself, learn how i had to and feel the difference when you do, experience life anew and see what a change it makes to your health mentally and physically, i don't go to the doctors if I can help it and I don't take their pills or slap on their creams if there is a natural alternative and the main way is to be healthy in the first place and not need to go.
