Once again Barbie, my wife, woke up with a complaint about arthritis in her hands. Once again I asked her what she ate yesterday and once again she responded that she had a cheese sandwich. Just a single cheese sandwich, but that was enough to send the pain to her joints.
It is difficult for her, and so many others, to accept that one small ingestion of the wrong food can make such a change in her physiological condition. It makes one wonder how many sore hands, backs, hips, knees and other ailing body parts are being caused, in the first place, by eating animal proteins.
Barbie is lucky. She has been subjected to a whole food plant based diet, and in doing so has lost all arthritic pain. She is lucky because she can now identify how dramatically a single cheese sandwich can change her health.
We both are lucky, as we can learn from this simple lesson how subliminal health changes can be shaped through eating damaging foods. We are lucky too because we have read many reports on the damage done to health from eating any animal protein. And I guess we are lucky to now recognise the powerful damage that can be so quickly wrought by eating just a little of the wrong food.
