Shorty's Red Beans and Rice - Easy style

One of the greatest points of going green is to slow down and bask in life. In spite of the fast pace of our modern-day world, you can do this. We must return to a lifestyle that prevents disease before it needs treating. Regrettably, most people don’t care about their health as they believe they can take a pill to fix the problem later on. We’re barraged with ads for magic pills that are claimed to fix any problem with the snap of a finger. In reality, some of these pills can help but only if you couple them with lifestyle changes. When your body wears out, you can’t exchange it for a new one, like your car. You have to take care of your health while you are able to. Proper nutrition is crucial for your body to work at top levels.
