You are what you eat

You are what you eat
We are what we eat. We've all heard it, but most of us probably don't quite believe it.

It's every bit as true as it is hard to see. The nutritional content of what we eat determines the composition of our cell membranes, bone marrow, blood, and hormones. Consider that the average adult loses roughly 300 billion cells to old age every day and must replace them. Our bodies are literally manufactured out of the food we consume.

That's why what we put in them is of utmost importance. In short, our bodies are only as clean as the food we feed them.
It refers to the importance of eating good food. If you have a healthy diet, you will be a healthy person. If you eat unhealthy food, your body will take damage.

Eating well is part of the formula that can reduce our risk of any major chronic disease by 80 percent and reach into our innermost selves to improve the health of our very genes.

In short its all in your hands you have a choice in what you are made of…you are what you eat.
