Hello,
Today for lunch we stopped at the Perfect Pita for lunch it was delicious!!! Just to show you how easy it is to make a conscious decision not to eat fast food ever..... There are always alternatives to eating poor Mal-nourished meals "with you guessed it" no vitamins, no minerals, no nutrients. And when you are done eating you almost always feel tired , you may even have an upset stomach and sometimes still feel hungry because the food does nada ,nothing for your bodies systems or for your brain. Just good old fat, fructose corn syrup and carbohydrates with lots of grease...No you do not feel energized just sluggish and unsatisfied.You might feel a splurge of energy for a moment from the soda you drink and then that high energy changes to low energy and so you drink more sodium and sugar the never ending cycle. For more information on sugar visit Nutrition By Natalie. How much fruit or vegetables did you eat or juice today should be the question to ask yourself everyday because without it you really are getting little to no nutrition and no fiber to move those fats and wastes through your body which also creates clogged arteries.Back to the lunch.
Dino and I both had Pita's for lunch. Mine was wheat his was white which we usually do not eat because white bread really has no benefits for your body. It tastes good !! We have conditioned ourselves so that every time we are putting something into our bodies we ask ourselves if what we are eating will benefit us emotionally, physically and mentally. So we read read read our labels. Go to Label Watch for lists of unhealthy products not to eat.
Both Pita's were fried felafel which are chick peas mixed with spices in the form of a patty with tomatoes,lettuce,onions and tazini sauce a Greek white creamy sauce..I do not miss the lamb at all it was very delicious !!! And they have chicken pita's and other choices also salads, hummus with pita chips all fresh and home made and desserts and kettle potato chips.
One more thing they do serve ice teas, juices and soda however soda contains fructose corn syrup so if you must have a soda occasionally I recommend you do a natural soda or juice like Honest Kids which has very little sugar or R.W Knudsen Family Spritzers which has no sugar added that comes in in grape,cherry and other flavors it will definitely satisfy your craving for soda. Juice containing only sugar or agave is better then soda. Remember sugar in general is toxic to your body for more information on fructose corn syrup and it's effects on the body from a doctor watch the documentary The Bitter Truth

Water is something Dino and I drink all of the time when we are out. Distilled water is the best because untreated water can also be extremely toxic and try to drink water from a glass because of the chemicals in plastic bottles are also very toxic or use a BPA free bottle
By taking small steps you are first making a conscious effort and commitment to yourself and your body to eat healthy everyday, maybe start with some organic foods in the beginning although we eliminated all processed foods from our household and went completely local/organic once we understood the harmfulness of processed and benefits of eating organic it became a priority. Every one's situation is different it really is about your priorities. Also eliminate soda from your family's diet all together. Incorporate local,organic produce by shopping around to find what stores are comfortable and convenient for you and your family to do shopping. Your taste buds will retrain themselves and eventually crave only what is good for your body.This is the detoxification process.
You will soon be eating the best tasting most delicious foods you have ever tasted you will wonder what you were thinking all these years because the food is now so fresh how could you or anyone else for that matter have missed this!!!!You won't want any of the other processed garbage you used to feed your body ever again!!! Your energy and clarity will go to new heights. The foods you are currently eating have chemicals that make you become addicted like a drug addict or alcoholic and because they have no nutrients for your body to digest is why you are always hungry and eating more of the same foods.
Til next time and Remember you are what you eat!!!
Eat Well Be Well
