We are what we eat
The influence of diet
Food plays many roles in everyone's life. It is a source of life, obviously, but it is more precise than that. Food affects our mood, which in turn affects our body. So, logically, we are what we eat, physically and morally. Many consequences and our states of mind are linked to food. It is wise to ask yourself how would we feel about ourselves with a consistently balanced diet and an accompanying healthy lifestyle. The first point to emphasize is therefore not to allow yourself to fall into a diet that is dangerous for you.
