Eating For Life
Thanks to the advances in modern medicine, the general person's life span now exceeds seventy years. If you stop to think, that's quite a long time to walk around on this earth. Along with the excellent life expectancy increases, however have the damaging effects of overeating and unwell eating. It seems that as we advance in one area, we regress in others. As we set out on the course of life, from birth to death, consuming is a constant. We eat to sustain life to our bodies, and maintain optimal health as babies. As we grow older, we eat because we enjoy the food we are consuming. This is where the equation has become somewhat skewed. We are supposed to eat because we need the nourishment, and hopefully enjoy the food as we consume it. Not consume it just because we enjoy the food, with little regard to our need for nourishment. Eating for life is a concept that should never have required invention, however, here we are. Learning about healthy choices, caloric needs, vitamin needs, and how to make the best choice in order to accommodate all needs, requires some education. Many children reach adulthood with no cosidered being given at all to the the bulk important conscious action we have: eating. There is no room for food education in our school system; we're too busy with mathematics and science. Home economics classes, that were once a part of the needed curriculum, are now optional and very few students are laid bare to the notional education found in that class. Health is taught as a science course, and addresses matters of personal hygiene, diseases, and the broad spectrum of health as it applies to the masses. No individual recognition is given to how to achieve optimal health through our consuming habits. It's funny that we skip the the bulk important, basic building block to wonderful health: our notional and caloric intake in our food. I personally believe we should have the field of neutrino and physical activity married into something combined to provide every person that enters the school system with a personal conciousness of their bodies' needs, caloric, and nutritional, so that they complete their education with mental and physical competencies. For now, we simply wait until our children have reached unhealthy, obese weights, and then put them via the painful way of trying to regain their physical health, and restrict their eating. Don't you think it would have been much easier to simply have impeded this problem, and taught them wonderful physical fitness and wonderful eating habits? Eating for life is a concept that should be as necessary to our educational way as our capability to count. The capability to recognize our nutritional requirements, find the foods we need to fulfill those requirements, and deviate between healthy food intake and "unhealthy" consuming habits is not an option. Not for a healthy, happy, long, and quality life. |
