Buicks and Nutrition
When I was driving to work this morning I noticed a Buick model in front of me and remembered as a child how I was enamored with cars. I would cut pictures of them out and made scrapbooks of various models. I realized that people drove particular cars then because that's what their family did. They were the family that bought Buicks.
I think that's the way choices around nutrition occur, as a matter of fact all of our humanoid habits. We are all taught at a very young age, this is what our family eats. We eat Buicks, tomatoes, chili rellenos, gyros, English pudding, roast beef and potatoes, etc.
These foods not only represent habits but for many of us they represent comfort foods as well. We gravitate toward them because they remind us when we were safe and close to mom.
Of course layered onto this basic foundational "learning" food selection is all the influences that then occur through teenage years and adult years.
The point of this dialogue is to allow us to see how our food and drink selection is caught up in early programming of the mindbody. And that we can chose differently if we decide to do so.
We will never be able to solve the crisis in our society about obesity until we get that we have to make our nutritional problem conscious.
After we elect to make it nutritional conscious choice making, the question is, "Which foods are best to use?"
