To a great extent we are physically what we eat... What needs additional emphasis are the positive aspects--the need for vegetables, fruits, and grains, particularly wheat. In most cases, the closer these can be, when eaten, to their natural state -- without over refinement and processing -- the healthier we will be. To a significant degree, we are an overfed and undernourished nation digging an early grave with our teeth, and lacking the energy that could be ours because we overindulge in junk foods….we need a generation of young people who, as Daniel, eat in a more healthy manner than to fare on the "king's meat" - and whose countenances show it. (Ezra Taft Benson, Teachings of Ezra Taft Benson, p. 476-77)
Born and raised in South Africa I now live with my hubster in Utah (Yes, Utah...the dull of all dulls). Actually, life is ALWAYS interesting and exciting for us...even in Utah. there is never a dull moment! We love life and we love each other! What more could a gal ask for?
