Are we looking at what's really important?

I was in a situation the other day and this women was asking me how many calories were in a raw dessert that I had made. She kept commenting over and over again at how many calories were in almond butter and how fattening it was. I asked her to give me an idea of what she ate and she mentioned that she had a Weight Watchers entree for dinner the night before. I asked her if she read the ingredienton the box and if she knew everything that she put in her body. She said she didn't know. I wasn't trying to embarrass her, I was simply trying to wake her up from the years of being lost in all the wrong information that we have been given.

I am not pointing this out to judge, just the opposite. I am pointing it out so that we can all become more aware of the things that we should be aware of. It's not all about how many calories are in the foods that we consume- but what is in the foods that we consume???? Imagine getting to the point where you never had to read labels or be concerned with calories because everything you ate was in it's whole form or combinations of things in whole form. Most of what you ate would have no more that 5 or 6 ingredients in it. Imagine eating only things that your body could actually break down and use for healing purposes? That's eating raw and living foods. Everything we consume is used by the body and everything our body doesn't use leaves the body as heat. It isn't stored as fat and it isn't breaking the body down. When we eat things like Lean Cuisine (processed foods) our body treats it like an invader, and instead of the body doing the functions that it should throughout the day, it is on overdrive trying to rid the body of invaders. This causes premature aging, disease and fatigue! Is that a motivator to eat Raw and Living Foods or what???
