Natural foods rule! Processed foods drool.
One of the most important things I've learned is that the more natural foods I eat the healthier I'm getting and the less I have to think about what I eat. If I stay in the natural food arena I don't have to worry about eating "fat free", because most of my food choices have only ONE ingredient.
My only really refined "foods" are my protein bars and shakes. They're to help me get to my 199 grams of protein I need daily. My lentils and meats make up the majority of my protein, but when I'm driving and working for 12 hours daily I need something quick and easier. If I'm going to eat something and I have to choose between pretzels or a banana, I can think of the ingredient list. Pretzels have over 12 ingredients and a banana only has 1. Guess which is better to eat.
