Click on the title to this post and read the intro to the article about how one person actually credits CF with aiding him escape a deadly fire... fascinating.

I talked to a kid today at the gym who is a type I diabetic. He had some crazy thing stuck in his backside attached to a small iPod-like thing that continuously pumped insulin into his body. He told me that he had changed to the Paleo diet and doing so had drastically improved his health. Previously, he said he went through dosages of insulin in 3 days, as his body required that much to help control his diabetic condition. But with changing his eating habits, we was now going a full week and barely needing any extra insulin from his iPod-machine thingy.

This really resonated with me... the power that clean, healthy eating has on the human body. I am getting older and can no longer (not that we EVER should but...) afford to take my body for granted. I want to be functioning at an optimum level and ignorance is no longer an excuse for not doing so. The knowledge is all readily available to all of us, we just need to obtain the will power and start eating RIGHT.

I am pretty much just preaching to myself right now but if anyone else out there feels me, holla at ya boy....
