How to eat healthy while living on a shoestring budget?Well this subject is right in my wheelhouse. I have been balancing out the two for my entire life. When I say that I live on a very small income I am not just saying so for effect. I really am living below the poverty level right now as we speak, and have lived below the poverty level for most of my life.I eat better foods and also bigger quantities of those foods more than anyone that I know also. And I do so while spending far less than the average person does on food who probably eats about half the calories that I eat. We are what we eat.This is the truth. my beliefs are that we all should strive to fuel our bodies with the best foods possible so that we can be the fittest, healthiest, most vibrant, people that our bodies will allow us to be. Your going to get something a bit different here, because I am actually going to converse with you based on what I am doing right now in real time. This is not just some high school report about how to budget your groceries into your life written by someone who isnt even doing it themselves. By the time you are done reading this you are going to not only know how to shop for the best foods and keep them within your budget. But you are also going to learn how to be in tune with your body, and know exactly what it is that are the best sources for your body to burn as fuel in order to live and feel at your best. This is more than just a book about grocery shopping on a budget.Single people and families all can save hundreds of dollars a month on groceries if they just learned more about their own bodies and what it is that they personally run best on as far as fuel (food) goes. These are my BIG 4 things I say to avoid.* Processed foods * Refined sugars * Bad fats * Chemicals and preservatives Once a person can eliminate those things from their life, we will start to feel drastic changes in the way we feel, and eventually even in the way we even look.Even if you decide to not read my book at least take those 4 simple things and try and avoid them like the plague, and you will be on the right track to a healthier way of eating.But for those of you who are going to join me in this conversation, I look forward to speaking with you on the other side. Remember, you dont need to own a Kindle to read this book. I dont even own a Kindle. I cant afford one to be honest. I use a FREE app on my cell phone, and on my laptop. I will also have a paper back version of this book just like all of my other books do as well if you are more of a paper back reader like myself. Any questions you may have about anything you can email me at [email protected] I will answer them to the best of my abilities. I look forward to conversing with you all and I will talk to you on the other side!Carpe diem Dexter
