Remember, this whole website is ultimately about shifting how I eat. These suggestions here are one piece of the puzzle.<\/p>\n
Long term, if I stop buying the dangerous food, the market will respond. I vote at least 3 times a day, 365 days a year for what kinds of foods I want to eat. That\u2019s a LOT of clout. And if I stop buying the foods and ingredients that make me sick\u2014they\u2019ll stop selling it to me. No, that doesn\u2019t help me today as I go into the grocery store, but my daily votes count and will affect what our grocery stores look like the next year, the next decade and for the younger generations.<\/p>\n
Short term, that\u2019s where the real challenge is. The nice thing about addictive foods, if I don\u2019t buy it\u2014it won\u2019t be there in my cabinets to tempt me. So, I grit my teeth while I am in the grocery store and hang in there. Resist temptation for the whatever minutes I am in the store and then at least the temptation won\u2019t be calling my name all the hours I am at home.<\/p>\n
For everyone it is different, but as my body feels better from cleaner, healthier food, my taste buds will change and I will crave the clean foods and not like the junk.<\/p>\n
That said, truly, this is one of the most difficult steps\u2014stop buying the highly processed foods. Tactics to support you:<\/p>\n

Michael Pollan\u2019s Food Rules began with his hunch that the wisdom of our grandparents might have helpful things to say about how to eat well.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/learnaboutfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/illustrated-food-rules.jpg” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.3.4″ hover_enabled=”0″][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.3.4″ custom_margin=”21px||2px||false|false” custom_padding=”18px||||false|false” border_width_all=”40px” border_color_all=”#ffffff” hover_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Ask. Receive.<\/p>\n I was amazed at the effectiveness of this small action. When I was struggling, out of desperation, I ran outside and sat on a patch of grass. Put my palms down to the earth and asked the earth to take away the temptation, and fill me up its loving energy and wisdom on how to take care of myself. It only seems silly until I’ve tried it and discovered how powerful this step is.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_blurb image=”https:\/\/learnaboutfood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/sprouts.jpg” _builder_version=”4.3.4″ url=”https:\/\/naturalpapa.com\/food\/sprouting\/how-to-grow-sprouts-at-home\/” url_new_window=”on” link_option_url=”https:\/\/naturalpapa.com\/food\/sprouting\/how-to-grow-sprouts-at-home\/” link_option_url_new_window=”on” border_width_all=”40px” border_width_all__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” border_color_all=”#ffffff” width=”100%” hover_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Great explanation on how to sprout.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n [\/et_pb_blurb][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Remember, this whole website is ultimately about shifting how I eat.
