One of the many tactics that I am using towards my success is to really learn about foods. What is in them, where do they come from, how are they processed, what do they do for my body. My research mode of choice? Netflix!
I love watching Food documentaries. =)
Today we watched King Corn -
From IMDB:
King Corn is a feature documentary about two friends, one acre of corn, and the subsidized crop that drives our fast-food nation. In King Corn, Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, best friends from college on the east coast, move to the heartland to learn where their food comes from (after they find corn in a DNA analysis of their hair). With the help of friendly neighbors, genetically modified seeds, and powerful herbicides, they plant and grow a bumper crop of America's
most-productive, most-subsidized grain on one acre of Iowa soil. But when they try to follow their pile of corn into the food system, what they find raises troubling questions about how we eat-and how we farm.

I know I have to get real about what I am putting in my body, and these have definitely helped. =)
