Daily Bite [Say]: Wise Words from Hippocrates

Talia 01/15/2013 2

At Bite Size Wellness we strive to bring you the best of health and wellness one bite at a time. If you think about it, each day is made up of little bites that we make, say, see and do for our healthy lifestyle.

Sometimes that includes repeating wise words over and over again to help us stay on the health path like these wise words from Hippocrates:

Why We Want you to Say It:

Because the sage advice from the father of western medicine is something we have forgotten these days.

We live in a fast-paced world where too often we pop a pill to solve our problems instead of trying to correct the issue with a proper diet or exercise. As it stands now we are overfed and, at the same time, incredibly undernourished. We need to remember that food is fuel and stop embracing quick fixes for our dietary ignorance.

Take Hippocrates very simple advice to heart and bring more fruits, vegetables and healthy nutrients into your diet. Try to eliminate processed foods, refined sugar and saturated fat from your diet equation.

Your homework: Say Hippocrates words allowed. Now, apply them to your life.

Do you agree with Hippocrates way of thinking? What is a food quote that sticks with you?
