Well, They are Very, very positive. I'm in the military and I can't stress the two enough. Proper Food intake though? Well, if you are focused on Electrolytes and water, #1 you're probably an active person looking to either lose weight or keep the lean, #2 , i'd assume you aren't eating mcdonalds every single day in the first place if you're asking this question, so i'm pretty sure you are fine :).

The human body is about 72% water and an electrolyte is any substance containing free ions that behaves as an electrically conductive medium. If you decrease either level you have a problem. Water is critical to maintaining electrolyte levels. The first stages of dehydration are feeling sick and muscle cramps. You also have problems processing information. Everything in the body is controlled by the electrical signals sent back and forth to the brain. If your body can't conduct these electrical signals, you have problems. Water & electrolytes handle these signals. Water is also an important part of the digestive process. It is needed to process food and flush the intestines. Blood is made up of plasma which is also mostly water and so is sweat which helps to regulate the body's temperature. Water is a part of every process in the body. The proper amount of food depends on your size and the items you eat and the quality of those items. Proper foods are the ones that contain the most minerals and vitamins (fruits, vegetables, nuts). Protein should come from fish as the oil in fish is very good for you. The only drink the body requires is water. The biggest problem we face is the depletion of minerals & nutrients in the soil we grow our food. There are also problems with pesticides and herbicides. Water is polluted and chemical laden. Fish swim in this water. So the best is organically grown foods, fish raised in filtered water and Good, high quality drinking water. The best is ionized, filtered, alkaline water.

Many people/raw food specialists believe you don't need to count calories if you eat raw food. Raw food is packed with vitamins, minerals and amino acids, that you often don't need to eat as much to feel full. When you first start, you may eat more because you are transitioning and missing the old foods you are used to, but this will soon even out. Most people lose a lot of weight on the raw food diet. You will find that raw keeps tasting better and better to you, it's fresh, sweet, clean, and eventually cooked food won't even seem like food anymore. It's not just fruit, veggies and nuts, there are many gourmet raw dishes that can be made, even without a dehydrator. You can also by dehydrator cookies and chocolate (so healthy you could even eat it for breakfast if you wanted.) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCz7zhrWnxg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lNvHOiQB4jA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6gvrEj2H36w&feature=related http://web.aanet.com.au/netgirl/raw.html http://www.rawgoddessheathy.blogspot.com

Poll: Why is it everytime I go to the store and buy health food products (namely weight watchers products

Poll: Why is it everytime I go to the store and buy health food products (namely weight watchers products)?
I get dirty and weird looks from ppl? It's not just for overweight ppl is it? This actually is a serious question coz I get it all the time, and I mean no disrespect to anyone!

I get dirty and weird looks everywhere I go. It means you have something they want :)
5 :
Probably because an overweight woman thinks that she's doing something exclusively for her, so to see this young, skinny chick buying it just because she can... it kinda diminishes her purpose for buying the products. It's like you're taking something away from her that was "meant" for her.
6 :
i never get weird looks, but i love the Naked juice its really good....if you work out alot wear a spandex shirt so then they will be afraid to give you dirty looks
7 :
The only time I pay attention to what people are doing in the store is when they are in my way. You buy what you want sweetie. Screw them. They obviously have issues if they are paying attention to what other people are doing. I hate nosey people. Next time ask them if they would like to recommend something

Count the calories as you eat. It’s a good idea to have an idea of the calories that most food items have. If it is a packed thing then the label is sure to have the calories that the substance has.
2 :
Fresh vegetables are better than cooked or canned vegetables. Try to eat your vegetables raw. When you cook them, you are in fact taking away nearly half the vitamins in them. And canned vegetables too are processed and are not nearly half as good as fresh vegetables. When you buy your vegetables it would be a good thing to see if the label says that it is pesticide free

In regards to food safety and health code in the state of Michigan?
Is it okay for restaurant employees to store sealed and labeled personal food items in the restaurants walk-in for personal consumption. For specific example, a bag of chips and salsa, would this violate health code or no?

No it does not violate the health code, but it has to be sealed and labled. If its not labled this will violate the helth code. The label must have the name of whatever food it may be and the date

Its a chicken or the egg thing. I'm noticing a lot of cancer patients every time I go into Whole Foods. So is it because there is a cancer center nearby? or are these people here because having cancer has made them decide to start living healthy? or is this a huge government conspiracy to get us all to eat healthy food that actually gives us cancer?

Chemotherapy is hell. There are certain foods that stay down (not vomited up after eating) that are only found in health food shops.
