How do we break this vicious cycle. The bodies we have been given are so wondrously made and why do we not consider that we are divine in creation. No other creature on this planet is as gifted as we are. Our bodies were created by an intelligence so great that we were created to live life and not to have sickness and underlying conditions. Maybe we just do not know how to have a healthy food plan. Below I have placed the definitions and foods that are contained in healthy food plans. Why not choose one, or be creative and make your own. Whatever you decide, stick to it, you must do it.

About
Hidden Gardens was started by Artelle Gandy, who had gained a significant amount of weight over the years, which caused many health challenges.
