Introduc on
The purpose of this book is to help us to really question our own eating habits. Is what we eat really that important? How important are our food choices? How does it affect our health and overall life span in general? Are we really eating ourselves to an early grave? Should we even care?
It is becoming more and more evident that a signi:icant amount of us are paying no real attention to the foods that we eat. On the other hand, a rising number of us are paying greater attention as to what we feast on and the effect on our health. We become living examples that there is a serious relationship between the food we eat and our overall health.
Just ask David Wolfe. He would tell you.
The story goes on. In my eleven (11) years of experience as the founder of Natural Livity Inc. (a Vegan Café` fran-chise project), a Personal Chef, and a Holistic Health Care Con-sultant; I have seen solid evidence to support this reality. The foods that we eat does indeed affect our health and wellness.
There is also a de:inite relationship between what we eat and how we think, function, and live.
I have listened to arguments from both sides of the fence, and the food debate can go on forever. I myself have been on both sides of the fence since I was not always a vegan.
In my own analysis, I must admit that there are many bene:its eating from Mother Nature’s menu. Such great bene:its, that I am always very thankful to the Creator for all these life giving gifts. I found it important to ask myself the question. It was even more important for me to make changes to the diet that I was fed growing up. Life is here for all of us in abundance. It is one of Nature’s joys as our Mother to feed us the very best.

This is what I have grown to believe and know to be true!
What do you believe?
Some people say that as long as you are alive, the day of death is sure. Does that give us the right to eat everything that we can possibly get our teeth on? This is the basic environment that the majority of us grow up in as far as tips towards general nutrition. It was basically catch, kill, cook, and eat (with the exception of insects and bugs etc)! Who started that anyway? Crabs, iguanas, agoutis, and manikou are all ok to eat some say. At one time mountain chicken, (a frog) was claimed to be the national dish on my island of Dominica. As strange that this may sound, it is the truth. All too often the tragic results of eating this way on a long term are sickness, disease, and medical drugs. The end of this journey is usually death. Shouldn’t we be considering the consequences?
This book is an attempt to help us open up and question our own minds as to food choices we make today. It also serves to help us to question some of the recipes that were handed down to us from tradition, as it relates to food and nutritional health. Many of us have lost loved ones and we know we can’t bring them back. Life is an experience and the opportunity to learn from the mistakes of others, can add years of health and happiness to our own lives and the lives of those we presently love so much. Life was created for the living. We are aware that we cannot change the past, but we sure can use the past to in:luence a much greater future.
You may :ind some repetition within these pages. This is willful and done for emphasis. Get this message clear. Our lives and that of our children and love ones are at stake here.
If we don’t question the choices we make now, we are most likely to fall victim to the mistakes of those who have already 5
