1/3/11: Living Green. Living Healthy

The new year hit me with a BANG - a bang of sickness. This made me realize that health consciousnes is as important as green consciousness. I have already decided to make steps in the right direction and that includes eating healthy. Eating healthy includes eating green.

A diet based more on plant-based foods than meats and dairy can lead to extra years of healthy living. (Six Arguments for a Greener Diet)

I can trace down the "source" of my sickness and I can also recall actions that I could have taken to avoid getting sick. Eating green can help you avoid chronic disease and foodborne illness. I will become even more agressive in my quest to eat greener.
