In order to stay healthy it is very important to buy the right foods so we can make sure that what we eat will help keep us healthy. Even though all food now carries appropriate food labels, it is not enough.

The FDA is now thinking of developing a new type of food labels to be included on all food products. The new labels will be have a colour code system sort or like a traffic light that will indicate the amount of all ingredients with a green, yellow or red light so the consumer could easily see what he is buying.

I think this new initiative is something very interesting and necessary nowadays.  We are all running around like crazy and don’t have much time to spend on reading food labels, so having an easy system like this one will help us all reach our nutrition goals. But, we must still know when to STOP and not buy certain foods that are not good for us.

I was 20 years old when as a professional ballet dancer, doctors from our ballet company discovered that my terrible feet pain was something that was not the normal dancer pain. After many tests and theories an x-ray revealed the demon that was behind my suffering and which would condemn me to a life of pain, osteoporosis.

What? How? It couldn’t be, but yes my friends it was true and although it’s not very common at that age it could happen. All women out there should always be on the alert and not think that “old people” diseases are going to affect us later in life. A woman should start preventing these diseases sooner than later. Exercise has been by saving force and without it I’m not sure I would be walking today. Exercise strengthens your muscular system by protecting your skeleton from possible fractures.

Living a healthy lifestyle at a young age will prevent pains in the future. Maintaining a healthy diet is something that is never too early to start.

I love Amazon; I could buy almost anything I need in just one simple click. Anything from books to cod’s so I was presently surprised when I saw their new online store which offers fresh foods guaranteed.

It seems Amazon has realized that most of the America population (and I’m sure most of the world) has a huge interest in eating healthy and that starts with buying first class healthy products. So Amazon’s answer has been Amazon Fresh, a store where you will find everything you need such as fruit and vegetables as well as meats that are healthy and best of all delivered right to your door.

I’m signing up..
