How to eat for health

Congratulations if you are asking or even curious about the question in the above headline then you are way ahead of most Americans. The reason why we have the obesity epidemic is because many of us are eating for the wrong reasons. The reason you may eat could be for pleasure or to forget pain, yet we know that does not work. So the best way to eat for health is to understand and internalize the message that food will never solve our problems through the short time that we enjoy it. The way to eat for health is to ask ourselves "How can I eat so that I will be stronger and healthier tommorow than I am today?"
