What does Plant Based Eating Really Mean?

Exactly what it sounds like.  Eating a diet that consists of plant based foods and eliminating your dependance of animal products.  The next question is why.  Luckily there are hundreds of good books already on the issue.  To sum it up, the majority of chronic diseases that plagues us as a society, whether it is cancer, heart disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, depression, anxiety, fatigue, you name it, all have the same root cause.  Inflammation.  It is this highly inflammatory state that our bodies are in all the time that breaks down our immunity, breaks down our spirit (because we feel unwell most of the time), and slowly breaks down our bodies.

Unfortunately,  for most people, getting older means getting sicker, losing your mobility, taking more and more medications, and generally enjoying a pretty dismal quality of life. This doesn’t have to be the case. For most of us, we can dramatically improve the quality of our lives now and as we get older by changing what we put into our mouths.
