We all have heard it before: “You
are what you eat.” Have you ever sat down and actually tracked
exactly what you are “made” of? If you constantly eat
pizza, then as your cells reproduce new cells, they use that pizza!
You might be a walking slice of pepperoni! The human body is made
of thousands and thousands of cells. What kind of cells are you
reproducing?
The following chart is a listing of many foods and the categories
they fall into. Use this guide to help get an idea of what kinds
of foods you are missing in your diet.
