What are the modern style of living and fresh foods?
Nowadays, time flies past us. Everything goes faster and faster, and everything should always be more excellent, more beautiful, and more functional. This development does not stop at our food.

We have to come back to those healthy foods that provide our bodies with all-sufficient nutrients and vital substances.

The quality of our food
The majority of the food we consume in the form of canned or other ready meals consists mainly of highly processed raw materials of inferior quality. During technological processing of the nutrients of the food such as carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, essential nutrients such as vitamins, enzymes, phytochemicals are denaturized, and they are no longer active. Our body suffers from a severe deficiency, which manifests itself in different diseases. Also, the cardiovascular system responds naturally to the nutrients and vital substances deficit with similar symptoms.

Take care when using fats, always opt for first-class organic quality and avoid consistently hydrogenated fats such as margarine, hydrogenated palm, or coconut oil. In finished products, hydrogenated fats used in abundance. Replace the unhealthy snacks (chips, cookies, etc.) with healthy alternatives such as nuts, almonds, rice cakes, chocolate with a high cocoa content, etc. Drink at least 2 liters of water daily, so the body manages to get rid of those toxins.

Good fats protect the heart.
It seems that everybody has something to say when it comes to fats. Most say that they are harmful and hazardous. However, it has long been known that fat is an essential component for active nutrient exchange and that a lack of healthy fats can contribute to chronic inflammation, which in turn leads to vascular damage and, thus, also to heart disease. Particularly important in this context is the quality of the fat. Healthy fats, which include primarily high-quality vegetable oils that are rich in unsaturated fatty acids, provide excellent protection against heart disease. In particular, fats with a high Omega-3 content (linseed oil, hemp oil, etc.) are to the heart of great value and should’s be consumed daily.

Carbohydrates
Carbohydrates converted during the digestive process of sugar (glucose). For this sugar finally gets into our cells and can be converted into energy there, the body requires insulin as a transport. The more sugar is available; the more insulin the pancreas for transportation must provide. Nowadays, we take mostly simple, very quickly utilizable carbohydrates from flour extract or pure sugar, and we do consume these in excess, the pancreas continually produces maximum amounts of insulin. This abnormally high insulin level leads to an increase in the cholesterol level and triggers inflammation in the artery walls.
Therefore, the recommendation is: Do not use other quickly utilizable sugars such as white flour products (bread, cakes, biscuits, etc.), refined sugar, and all products made from them. Use whole foods, eat high fiber foods, and look out for alternative products sugar (stevia, dried fruit).
