Invest in Your Health

 

I love this illustration because it speaks to what I often say… “You can either invest in your health or you can subsidize your illness.”   Either way, we are going to pay.

When we first made a change in the way we feed our family, we only had 2 young children.  Even then, as I made my way around the natural food store, I questioned whether it was financially feasible for our family to make better choices.  But what I found, was that our grocery bill actually remained about the same; at times, being even lower than what it was before we went organic.  Reason being, we only purchased quality items, real whole foods, eliminating so many unnecessary “foods” (and I’m using that term loosely here) from our weekly list.

What are your thoughts about this?  Do you think it is too expensive to make healthier choices?
