Where is your "Farmacy?"

No its not a typo...first let's look at the definition of pharmacy:

phar·ma·cy:
1. The art of preparing and dispensing drugs.
2. A place where drugs are sold; a drugstore.

The most influential drug in our daily lives is food.  The largest and most active food distributors are grocery stores.  Walking the aisles we are overwhelmed with fancy colours and empty promises of "all natural" "healthy" "no added sugar" and so on...

What are the true all natural, healthy, no added sugar foods?

  • Lean meats, 
  • vegetables, 
  • nuts and seeds
  • fruit

Lets keep it simple...shop the perimeter of the store and avoid items with fancy marketing on the box, can, bottle or tetra pack.  

Eat real food...it's that simple.
