Why Healthy Food Can Add To Your Pocket Book & Your Life
Author : Ron Stone
People who don’t know much about nutrition and real food seem convinced that they don’t spend much more money on eating out than they would spend eating at home.
But the costs are really more complicated.
If you cook at home you have to spend the time to do it and you have to have the ingredients and the equipment. So there is an initial outlay of money for these things.
But people tend to spend a ridiculous amount of money on equipment.
But think.
A good kitchen knife and an iron skillet can work really well. And a set of reasonably good stainless steel cookware doesn’t have to cost the Earth.
Once you have a pantry you are ready to go.
You can start cooking at home.
And the big bonus is that you can skip a lot of calories, saturated fat, sugar and salt that are ubiquitous in fast and prepared foods.
Savory (not sweet) foods that you get in restaurants and in the prepared food aisles at the grocer have a surprising ingredient that you would not expect.
They often have sugar and/or high fructose corn syrup.
This is especially true for restaurant kiddie meals.
Just ask any struggling diabetic. They have to find their way through a minefield of sugar traps.
And diabetes is reaching epidemic proportions in this country, probably due to way too much sugar in all our diets. The human body was never designed to process a lot of sugar. The amounts we generally eat are making us insulin resistant and then diabetic as our pancreas struggles to cope.
Avoiding a lot this sugar is a good first step toward avoiding the deadly health risks that come with it.
Cooking at home where you have control of what you and your family eat is a great way to get some control over these very real health risks.
Even if you are eating foods that are organic and prepared with the finest ingredients you will save money if you are not eating out or buying everything you eat pre made.
You also skip a lot of chemicals and preservatives, which have not really been tested and proved safe to eat.
You may also lose weight and become healthier.
But there is another payoff that is all about money.
Your medical care, prescriptions, and health and life insurance may all become a lot cheaper, too. Just think you might be healthy enough to not need as much medical care.
Being in better health is the best payoff. Learning to cook healthy meals is SO WORTH IT!
