Do you still buy it? 
 

Have you ever taken a look at the ingredients?

 

If you make your own bread or buy homemade bread, then you know it doesn’t last for weeks. Why?  

It lacks all the preservatives to keep it around forever. 

 

Controversial to what many believe, bread is not bad. As a matter of fact, the Bible even speaks to grains and bread.  I believe God intended on us to use them to fuel our bodies.    What he didn’t intend is to fuel them with all the extra “stuff”.    Can you imagine what it’s doing to our body!   

 

We live in a crazy fast paced world.    Everyone has places to be and convenience is key.  But that doesn’t mean we have to settle for all bad foods.     Trust me, I am not 100% on clean eating and only healthy foods.    But I do consider myself intentional a majority of the time.      Do I still eat out and have an occasional order of McDonald’s French fries.  Well yeah.  I’m human!   But I will say after eating the less clean foods I usually feel yuck!   And question my poor decision. 

 

Let’s get back to the subject at hand and less on my poor eating habits.     

 

This year take a look at something you eat that is less than clean.  Pick one thing!    You don’t have to be 100%.  Every bit helps.  But I know from personal experience that benefits of clean eating is tremendous!!!  

 

Now you’re probably saying I don’t want to bake, don’t know how (yeah I can attest to that one but look at me now) or just don’t have time!     No worries there are so many friends, small businesses, and cottage bakeries in our area that would love to help you!     

 

This is not a pitch for business but a pitch to look at what you are eating and decide in 2025 is the big name foods really worth your health?  What you are feeding the people you love?   

 

As for me, I use the healthiest ingredients I can find.   And that is making my own flour by starting with organic grains and milling just prior to using it.  Why?   This guarantees the most nutritional benefits I can get.     More on that another day!  

 

Do yourself a favor this year and choose to be intentional on what you eat.
