Well, if your one of those people who feels anxiety and disconnected when leaving your phone at home its possible you could be nomophobic! A recent study was done amongst 1,000 people and 66% of them had the fear of losing or leaving their phone!

Its not surprising this has become an actual phobia, as I know many people who depend on their phone for many things! I know I rely on my phone for emails, texts, calls, social media, music, directions and many more! It is hard to imagine not feeling a fear of losing all of those things…

You might be wondering, can eating organic really help me lose weight? Well, the answer is yes! Of course eating the right diet comes first in maintaining a healthy and fit lifestyle, but only consuming organic will aid in achieving your weight goals!

The destructive toxins that are found in conventional foods are to blame for the increase in weight gain of the general population over the past 30 years. These terrible chemicals cause your body to store unnecessary fat and can even cause a number of other health issues.

Once you introduce organic into your diet, your body will begin to cleanse itself of the toxins you’ve consumed. You will begin to feel lighter, and you will also notice an increase of energy! Our bodies are not designed to digest these foreign chemicals, and as a reaction it slows down our metabolism, stores fat and makes it impossible for people to lose weight.

Start detoxifying with your organic diet and you will notice a difference!

Many of today’s most influential individuals are taking the organic lifestyle seriously. A great example of this is our First lady, Michelle Obama. Since the beginning of Barack Obama’s term, she has tended to her very large garden, which includes a variety and fruits and vegetables.

This is actually the first active garden since Eleanor Roosevelt planted a garden at the height of World War II! I find Michelle’s message for planting and growing all of her own crops to be admirable. Being in the spotlight allows for her to bring the message of good health and organic living to the entire nation very easily.

Michelle often speaks at elementary schools and stresses the importance of growing your own crops. She explains her children are much more willing to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, for not only does it taste better, but they also get to be involved in planting the seeds and watching them grow. This is a great example to follow if you have children who are apprehensive to eat their daily fruits or veggies!
