    Healthy Body Hacks - Linda Gray

    INTRODUCTION

    'Healthy Body Hacks’ takes you by the hand and leads you into the lifestyle of your dreams. The stack of books, programmes and courses available on and off line can be brilliant but sometimes overwhelming and confusing.

    This book keeps it simple with ideas you can incorporate into your busy world without having to find extra hours in the day or extra cash in your bank account.

    From eating well to spiritual guidance, you choose what works for you. No one idea will be right for everyone, although sharing ideas with those who have different needs and dreams will undoubtedly bring joy to your life as well.

    The book is divided into chapters but we are whole beings and ideas cross over from time to time.

    Check out the ► areas for quick fix tips.

    To Your Good Health!

    Chapter One: Natural Bodies Need Natural Fuel

    How our bodies react to processed foods.

    Yes, it's convenient we all have access to a varied diet through processing, but the problem is the added addictive ingredients that lurk in the background.

    One major addictive ingredient, causing world-wide health problems, even fatalities in some cases, is a legal drug and making its presence felt in over a million new sufferers of diabetic conditions every year.

    SUGAR

    Not the natural sugar/s that occur in fruit and vegetables, but the processed type that turns up in practically every packaged product we buy. Even a tin of soup will probably contain a quantity of sugar. It may be under a different name; dextrose, glucose, etc; but it will still be processed sugar.

    ►Check Labels! Boring and obvious, but it’s so easy to forget.

    The problem is that humans are natural beings and when we feed ourselves with processed food our bodies have to work overtime to digest them properly. This can result in insulin levels being corrupted and lead to sugar intolerances as well as any number of medical conditions; IBS, allergies, heart problems, diabetes and obesity.

    Percentage of fats should be taken into consideration in a healthy diet, of course, although the human body can digest or eliminate fats easier than processed sugar.

    JUST SAY NO!

    If you’ve been trying to lose weight, watching the calories and doing your best but never quite managing the course, it may be that sugar is a huge obstacle between you and your ideal body.

    Processed sugars give us a quick rush of energy, that’s why we use them. The trouble lies in the come-down, which will unfailingly occur as soon as you’ve burnt off the calorie rush.

    Then your brain tells you that you need another sugar boost as soon as possible... you know that moment when you open the fridge or the cookie jar without realising you’ve done it.

    Eliminating processed sugar from our everyday diet won’t necessarily be an easy task. But it is possible! Buying or growing fresh organic foods and checking packages for sugar content before you buy them is a start, but basically, it’s all about mind-set.

    Set yourself a challenge to get off the drugs and be healthy!

    Allow a month to start re-training your taste buds and, during that month, experience as many different tastes as possible. Really look for new tastes and foods you’ve never tried.

    ►Pop a few dried dates in the freezer for a couple of hours. They come out like chewy caramels – very satisfying!

    Do a little research into vegan, gluten free and regular recipes where you can find alternate flavourings and healthy options.

    Often, when processed sugar is eliminated from the diet, the body feels drawn to fruit. Eat as much fruit as you like, within reason. Better than using it as an attractive dust collector. ☺

    Occasionally a small amount of sugar will sneak
