Today let's take a walk through your fridge. Making healthier choices begins one tiny step at a time. It's easier to transition to healthy food if you don't try to do it all at once. Make attainable goals that you can accomplish. For example, you can make a goal to eat fruits or vegetables with every meal. Or maybe you can make a goal to have a live vegetable with every supper. Perhaps it would help to make a goal to try one new fruit or vegetable per week. It's all about one step at a time.

I've gotten the following information in my inbox a few times now, and I think the information is valuable enough to share. Whether you're adding fruits and vegetables once a week, day or meal, this information is helpful in choosing which things are most beneficial to you:

A sliced carrot looks like the human pupil, iris and radiating lines of the eye. Science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.

A tomato has four chambers and is red, like the human heart. Research shows that tomatoes are loaded with lycopine and are pure heart and blood food.

Grapes hang in a cluster that has a the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell, and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.

A walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, under cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.

Kidney beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidney.

Celery, bok choy, rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are just 23 percent sodium and these foods are 23 percent sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.

Avocados, eggplant and pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female--they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. Plus, it takes exactly 9 months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit! There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods.

Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of sperm as well to overcome male sterility.

Sweet potatoes look like the pancreas and actually balance the glycemic index of diabetes.

Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries.

Oranges, grapefruits and other citrus fruits look like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.

Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion garlic also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.
