Junk Food vs Healthy Eating

Junk food vs healthy eating, is there really any contest between the two. Years ago, I found it difficult to keep on the straight and narrow as far as junk and fast food were concerned. At the time I was busy with work, home and all the rest of it and far too busy to be in the kitchen for hours on end preparing meals that everyone was too tired to eat anyway.

To be honest, times were different back then. Fast food had just become popular and was the in thing and I really didn’t consider that my fridge and cupboards, were virtually filled with nibbles, snacks and fast food.

Suddenly just out of the blue I became ill - nothing serious, but a warning that my body wasn’t in good shape. Too much cholesterol, too much fat, too much of everything I shouldn’t have been eating. And not enough vitamins and minerals that I should have been eating.

Needless to say my eating habits changed drastically right then and there.

Today I don’t even think about serving or eating fast food. the cupboards are long since cleaned out of anything that even resembles a quick snack or junk food, in fact I enjoy taking time to prepare good healthy meals and have become quite a good cook.
