Healthy Living: From the farm to the table

I’m African and in this part of the world, a good percentage of our food is grown on the farms, transported to the market or stores and then purchased from there by consumers. Due to the fact that they are taken from the farms in bulk and most times the entire quantity not sold to the consumers in that fresh state, it is stored and preserved. Sometimes there are preserved well and sometimes not so well but in all those instances they are purchased and consumed anyhow. Preservation could be natural but now more popularly we preserve food through the use of chemicals. This makes the food toxic and harmful for human and even animal consumption. The consumption of toxic food is responsible for the bad medical conditions for a whole lot of people. There is an increasing rate of failing health in the last few years and the major factor responsible is the quality of food and drinks we are consuming. Contamination of food is not only within the area of preservation but even in the area of production, harvesting and even transportation. The healthier the food we eat, the healthier we are or become but bad food makes us sick and sometimes the negative effects are irreversible or untreatable.

Some generations ago, people practically ate off the farm. They took crops from the ground and it went straight to the table. In this regard, these folks were generally healthier because what they ate were fresh, more nutritious and free of contamination. Food was hardly stored because they only took what they needed at the time. It was understandable to have this practice since most people then were agrarian and hunters and didn’t have much choice really as regards their lifestyle. However, we can learn from the effects of this lifestyle and can reliably tie this eating lifestyle to healthier living.
