We talk about a lot of ways to uplift our community (group economics, better education etc), but I don't
think there's enough discussion about improving our diets. That needs to be right up there with everything else
Because it runs counter to our culture. Fat, greasy, unhealthy good is a staple for us.

Next time you're at a family gathering, tell em you're on a diet. I don't even bother talking to non athletes about my eating pattern anymore. They question you like you have AIDS or some shyt.

I'm already knowing. I started changing the way I eat before I hit my 20's.

When I turned down certain foods one thanksgiving my family was looking at me like :wtf: :usure::what::childplease::lupe::shaq2::mjpls:

My diet can still be better though

he gotta pay Sebi a visit...

the way they processing the food now is insane.. its gotten so bad now, even worse than 50 years ago...

millennials are the first generation in america expected to have a shorter lifespan than their parents...

not only does most of the food we eat now do nothin for us, its got all kinds of deadly chemicals and preservatives...

and if he smokes tobacco, he gotta stop... that includes blunts, backwoods.... cause tobacco directly attacks the heart...

they also put that shyt in all most cereals... anytime you see niacin on the ingredients list, thats nothing more than tobacco and ammonia...

shyt even most of these bottled waters come from the tap..

Dasani water got potassium chloride in it, same thing thats used in lethal injections.. :scust:


bruh im a premed major. pottasium chloride (KCl) is a healthier salt for you than regular table salt (NaCl). when they inject pottasium chloride into you for lethal injections it's at a RIDICULOUSLY high concentration over an extended period of time. it causes the thousands of sodium potassium levels IN EVERY SINGLE CELL to imbalance. but if you replace table salt with potassium chloride, you'll actually lower your blood pressure. doctors even suggest that people with hypertension switch from normal table salt to potassium chloride salt.

table salt is also bad...

and high blood pressure is usually a symptom of another issue...

either mineral imbalance or something toxic in your blood the heart is desperately pumping hard to keep far away from it...

hawthorn berry helps too with high blood pressure..

People sometimes think I'm just overly anal about what i consume but I make sure I consume processed foods the least and avoid toxins/cleanse myself of toxins(with herbal formulas, teas and other things) regularly.

I'm not tryna be walking with a limp or in pain at old age or controlling a disease.

So far eating high amounts of plant based foods and abstaining from soda, table salt(herbs and spices with sometimes a little sea salt), starchy foods(white rice, pasta etc.) and meat has kept me pretty healthy for at least a decade. I can't remember the last time I was in serious pain, had stomach aches, clogged nose, or any ailment that kept me from working or doing whatever. :blessed:

Being healthy should be a birthright. Nowadays people just make eating and living healthy so damn complicated. I do what works for me at least.

Stories like this make me eat more fruits and vegetables and no fast food or soda :merchant:

That's not how you get strokes/heart attacks.

You get them from:

a) Over-stressing
b) Inactivity [both physical and mental]
c) Drug use (smoking the main culrpit)
d) Lack of sleep

I forgot all about this but he does struggle with smoking.That probably had a lot to do with it.Add that and all the other problems there was no way.I feel bad for him cuz he does try.Sometimes he'll be on the e-cig thing for like a week and then go right back.I'm so glad i never liked cigarettes even as a kid.I always thought they were nasty and i never got the "buzz" everyone says they get.I'm 37 now and have never smoked em.Plus i was a athlete in high school and always enjoyed exercise.Basketball,lifting or whatever.

shyt even most of these bottled waters come from the tap..

fukk.I drink the fukk outta Dasani. :mjcry:

I got a 20 pack in the fridge you making me feel like throwing it out.

Yea. People think you have to be over weight to have high blood pressure. Anybody can get it. I went to a pharmacy the other day and checked myself. I was 127/93. I'm 5'9 170. I definitely need to go to the doctor.
