Embrace the power of ancestral wisdom in dietary choices from "summary" of Primal Body, Primal Mind by Nora T. Gedgaudas
Our ancestors were intimately connected to the natural world around them. They understood the rhythms of nature and lived in harmony with the land and its resources. They knew which foods to eat and when to eat them based on the changing seasons and availability of food sources. This deep connection to the earth and its cycles guided their dietary choices and kept them healthy and strong. By embracing the power of ancestral wisdom in our dietary choices, we can tap into this ancient knowledge and experience the same benefits that our ancestors enjoyed. This means looking to the past for guidance on what foods to eat and how to prepare them. It means choosing whole, unprocessed foods that are nutrient-dense and free from harmful chemicals and additives. Our modern diet is filled with highly processed foods that are a far cry from the whole, natural foods that our ancestors ate. These processed foods are often stripped of their nutrients and loaded with artificial ingredients that can wreak havoc on our bodies. By returning to a more ancestral way of eating, we can nourish our bodies with the nutrients they need to thrive. Ancestral wisdom teaches us to prioritize foods that are rich in nutrients and free from toxins. This means choosing fresh fruits and vegetables, quality meats and fish, nuts and seeds, and healthy fats like olive oil and coconut oil. It means avoiding processed foods, refined sugars, and unhealthy fats like vegetable oils and trans fats.- We are not only nourishing our bodies, but also connecting with our roots and honoring the wisdom of those who came before us. By eating in a way that is aligned with our ancestral heritage, we can support our overall health and well-being and experience the vitality and energy that comes from eating in harmony with nature.
