Your Veganesse, fine vegan desserts!

 
 
... to unhealthy food. 
The ailments that many of us choose to live with are the effects of what we eat.  Pimples, body odor, fatigue, headaches, body pains, gas, cramps, runny nose, asthma, irritability, digestive disorders, stress, dry skin, dry hair-- these are things no one wants to live with, but they have become "normal" afflictions that a lot of us either throw up our hands at, or turn to the drugstore for a band-aid "cure."  The underlying cause of these ailments is almost always a poor diet. 

These "normal" afflictions do not have to be the norm for you, too!

The stress test for food:
To see how your body immediately reacts to a food you've just eaten, compare your pulse before and after you've ingested the food.
If your pulse increases, your body is stressed out by the food and you should not continue eating it.

Common foods that stress: caffeine, alcohol, foods high in salt or sugar, fatty foods, cow's milk and dairy products, red meat, refined and processed foods, margarines and other processed vegetable oils, spicy foods, additives, preservatives, and other chemicals

Foods that De-stress: celery, sunflower seeds, brown rice, algae, cabbage, almonds, berries, sesame seeds, cucumbers, asparagus, garlic, and avocados.
