What if we saw food as medicine?

We’ve all heard it. You are what you eat. 

Really think for a moment on this miracle known as eating. 

You pick an apple from a tree.

You chew and swallow part of a tree and it. 

Becomes. 

You. 🍏 🤯 

Matter becomes energy. 

Of course this happens with whatever you choose to chew. 

Food becomes your tissues…and issues in tissues. 

Energy back to matter. 

As the Ayurvedic saying goes,

“When diet is wrong, medicine is of no use; When diet is correct, medicine is of no need.”

Dr. Vasant Lad says that the ultimate fate of your food is to become BLISS. 

And who doesn’t want a blissful body that heals itself and goes the distance? 

Perhaps looking at food through this lens helps us have a more sacred relationship with it.
