I agree, it's unfortunate how many people don't appreciate the connection between diet and behavior, but I'm optimistic about this continuing to improve. Hi Tom, thanks for your comment!

Yes, it's very sad how many people so easily attribute their problems to "normal aging." It's even more sad how corporate greed and government lobbying have contributed to this greatly compromised standard of normalcy. Good luck with your efforts in 2010 and enjoy the remainder of your 2009 indulgences! <a href="http://naturalbias.com/how-to-make-dessert-a-nutritious-part-of-healthy-living/" rel="nofollow">Here's something</a> that might help you make those indulgences a bit healthier.

It is to be lamented that more folk do not appreciate the relationship between diet and health. To reason from cause to effect is a wonderful process of the mind, to believe that thoughts and feelings produce words and actions is an unwelcome revelation to those who should be and are in a position to help others. The author stated, " While it might initially be difficult to believe that your diet can have such a strong influence on your character," "initially be difficult to believe" is really the focus of the problem. Statistics and personal observation prove these concepts to be true. while working on large construction projects and firsthand knowledge of crime and delinquency in trying to help those incarcerated understand what lead to their detention, I realized that 90% of the problem was directly traceable to what they ate and drank.

While I believe the main contributing factor is "sin" in poor character or behavior that harms others, I have also observed the critical role of diet your article refers to. I am nowhere near the recovery you have achieved in your battle against chronic fatigue. But I did do a very radical diet for 15 months based on the principles of Weston Price, and saw many health problems I was experiencing go away. I have been eating 1/2 healthy and 1/2 unhealthy for awhile now. During the holidays, I have been eating a LOT of refined/sugary foods, and guess what? My shoulder and neck pain that had been absent for more than a year came back. My knees and knuckles also have pain and inflammation, which had gone away. But while we focus on the physical symptoms of poor diet, we neglect to understand the HUGE impact it has on our mental well-being. Many have bought in to the doctors explanation, "it's normal for someone at the age of 40 to begin experiencing these symptoms of depression and low energy." That was my case... I hit a brick wall at the age of 38, and my attitude and mental ablilities changed almost over night... for the worse. I believe our body systems can cope for decades (some shorter, some longer) when we abuse them with poor diet. But we do "reap what we sow" eventually. I plan on indulging for the rest of 2009, and then begin the transformation of my emotions through diet choices (and spiritual soul searching via Scripture) in 2010. It all works together, Vin. Your articles put everything together very nicely. I'm glad to see that "someone gets it!" Congratulations! :) Great article as always, Vin.
