•Some things about life—and how long we get to enjoy it—are out of our control. But what, when, and how we eat has a profound influence on how long we live. •Remember that food is information, it tells body how it should work. Everything that you eat, changes your body on some level.

Drinking

Don't wait until stress has a negative impact on your health, relationships or quality of life. Prevent it. •Stress can cause:aches and pains, lower energy level, trouble sleeping and emotions such as: anxiety, anger, depression, helplessness, tense, easily irritated, impatient, forgetful. •Be positive,think about good times and don’t upset yourself over small things. •Happiness is inside us.
•Think outside the box. •Listen to your body. •Have regular check-ups at the doctor’s. •Treat the cause of a problem,not a symptom. •Healthy environment is very important. We are all responsible for it. •Radiation and pollution have really bad consequences on people.

Raw food diet
•It is important to know that the raw food diet is a lifestyle choice. It is not a weight loss plan. •Rawism diet consisting mainly of uncooked, unprocessed plant foods leads to a leaner body, clearer skin, and higher energy. •Raw foodists use food dehydrators that lend crunch to vegetables and cookies. •Studies showed that eating raw vegetables helps reduce the risk of cancer or other disease. •Science now proves that cooking not only destroys nutrition and enzymes but chemically changes foods from the substances needed for health into acid-forming toxins, free-radicals and poisons that destroy our health!
Vegetarian
In a very general sense, a vegetarian is someone who doesn't eat meat. There are several kinds of vegeterian diets: •Lacto-ovo vegetarians eat milk products and eggs, but no meat, poultry, seafood, or fish. •Lacto-vegetarians eat milk products, but not eggs, meat, poultry, seafood, or fish. •Vegans are total vegetarians. They eat only plant foods. They don't eat food that comes from animals in any way, including milk products, eggs, honey, and gelatin.
Genetically modified food (GMO)
•Food that has been produced using organisms that have been engineered genetically. Such food either contains such organisms, or such organisms have been used to create the food. •Using GM food is one of the worst things that you can do to your organism=poisoning it.
