Your Body Isn't Broken, Your Fuel Is

Why do we believe our health is something that happens to us? 

Why do we act as if our daily choices have nothing to do with wellness?

If I put sugar in a gas tank, you’d think I had lost my mind. If I drank gasoline, you’d assume something was seriously wrong.

So why did we collectively decide that random chemicals are acceptable to eat?

We consume things that are nowhere near actual food — often justified by “it tastes good” or “it’s comfort food.” When did comfort become more important than nourishment?

Humans have eaten food from the earth for thousands of years. Then, in the 1950s, we shifted to mass-produced, packaged products designed in laboratories instead of kitchens — made from industrial wet-milled corn, seed oils, and soy isolates. Not food. Industrial byproducts — what I call sludge — marketed as “healthy.”

Food was never meant to come from a lab.

Our bodies were designed to run on real food. And honestly, I’ve spoken with many people who don’t even know the difference between real food and processed food — which tells me the marketing has been incredibly effective.

Here’s a simple truth: real food doesn’t need a label. Broccoli is broccoli. A chicken breast is chicken. There’s nothing to list because there’s nothing to hide.

The most optimal way to eat is to eat real food because food is fuel for your body.

The next time you shop or prepare a meal, flip the box over. Read the ingredients. Look up the ones you don’t recognize or can’t pronounce. Education changes everything.

As for me — no gasoline or sludge. I’m choosing the food God intended from the beginning.
