After our first son was born with ADD, it became very important for me to try and control his sugar intake and eliminate certain foods so the practice of making things from scratch intensified a bit and just stuck with me. Moreover for me though, cooking just became a hobby. I never wanted anyone to get tired of one certain dish or type of cooking, so from the beginning, I have embraced other cuisines and have brought these regularly to the table simply because I feel it is important to experience many things on many different levels in the course of a lifetime.In giving over our diets to fast foods and processed, packaged foods, we are missing the very basics of health that are so vital to living longer and staying healthy. It is perhaps the greatest health risk in our country today and no one seems to be paying attention.
* We are stuffing ourselves with calorie-dense foods that have relatively zero nutritional value.
* We are becoming victims of portion distortion. In an effort to draw us to the fast food restaurants in particular, everything is over-sized and no one seems to be calculating the calories (and the fat, sodium and sugar content) in that oversizing practice.
* We are a convenience culture. If it isn't going to be ready in 10 minutes, it isn't worth the effort. Couple that with the concept of instant gratification, and it is no wonder we are a nation with 66% of our population in the obese range of body mass index.
* Between the fatty, unbalanced and over-sized portions that we are consuming, I would venture a guess that most people are not consuming even 1/3 of their daily nutritional needs. Most people that I know do not take vitamins so the fact that diseases of the heart, circulatory system, intestines, bones and joints are on the rise should not be a surprise.
There are many awesome benefits of cooking from scratch.
