African American Self Love Through |

The Bible tells us from the beginning, to beware of the fruit of the tree. And to beware of the serpent (money?). Does that apple (apples don’t grow in Bethlehem/Northern Africa so…) represent the havoc that sugar and almost everything white (potatoes, flour, dairy, ice cream, breads, pasta, cocaine) wreaks on a naturally healthy body? Is this another warning that goes unheeded as we watch record numbers of black men and women succumb to diseases primarily caused by what we eat? Eating healthy? – No, if you’re buying fast food or food from a regular grocery store you’re not eating healthy. Healthy eating – requires time and attention, reading and asking non-traditional as well as traditional medical providers for their ideas – testing them out and recording the effects. What could possibly be more important than what feeds your body and your brain? – God’s inner computer for managing your life. Food for Thought – Everything we hear about food that you need to know to keep your family safe and healthy.
