What do you Feed a Ferrari?

If you had a Ferrari and you put diesel fuel in it, how would it run? Would it even run at all?

What if there was no gas station nearby, so you scooped in some sand and poured bottles of water in the fuel tank "just this time."  Once is all it would take to ruin that engine. 

Anyone who could afford this car had better be smart enough to take care of it, and that includes knowing what to put in the gas tank. (I suppose Ferraris take premium gas.)

How about a race horse (or any horse for that matter)? Would you feed your horse corn chips and candy bars and let it drink sweet tea? It wouldn't stay healthy for long if you did. Horses have specific nutritional needs to stay strong and healthy.

So why do we think that we can get away with putting junk in our bodies?  We are infinitely more complex than a Ferrari -- so why we don't we provide our bodies with the proper fuel to be healthy and strong.  Unlike the Ferrari, we can get by for a while eating junk, but sooner or later it will affect our health.

Next time you are tempted to eat fast food or something full of preservatives and synthetic chemicals, look for Real Food instead.

Real Food does more than just fill you up like junk food does.
It contributes to your health!
