"The Beautiful Truth"

I am currently speechless, but feel the inner longing to write. I'm so shocked, and amazed by the documentary that I have just watched that I feel like I might explode if I am not able to tell the entire world about it.

It all started a few days ago when I remembered that my brother and sister-in-law make homemade soap, and had given us several bars as part of our wedding gift. I searched them out in our mess of a spare room that is currently filled with moving boxes and wedding gifts that have yet to be utilized. At the same time I remembered about the soap, I just so happened to see a few links my sister-in-law had posted on her facebook. Articles that share the benefits of organic soap as opposed to the store bought kind with all the chemicals and additives. My first bit of research was half-heartedly looking up my body wash to see what all ingredients were in it, and what possible diseases have been linked with certain chemicals and additives that are found in most products we buy today. I was surprised by the number of diseases I found to be possibly linked to things in my body wash. These diseases included, Neurotoxicity, Organ System Toxicity, Allergies, etc. After pondering that for awhile, and deciding to start using the organic soap, I went to throw away the bag to some powdered doughnuts Ryan and I had just finished off. For whatever reason, I glanced at the ingredients and my eye caught an ingredient that just so happened to be one of the ingredients in my body wash. My first thought was, I can't believe I'm eating something that is also used to wash my skin. This cannot be healthy at ALL.

Like many people, I was never one to be concerned with healthy foods or even exercise for that matter. But when finding out this tiny bit of information, something inside be awakened. The knowledge that I am harming my body and it's health and longevity on a daily basis. I suddenly have the desire to ditch all of the unhealthy things I have been putting in and on my body and start living a healthier life. This process with be slow and very difficult I am sure, but I believe it to be 100% worth it. In the midst of proclaiming my new-found desire for health, I was given a suggestion to watch a documentary called, "The Beautiful Truth". If I was not fully convinced before, I surely am now! I would encouraged every single person on this planet to watch this film. For me, it was eye opening, and awakening. I was utterly shocked at the proof given of how boldly the food industry and everyone else in between lies to the public about the safety of things they are consuming. They lie because they are greedy, and have to compete. They are literally more concerned about making money, than they are about the health of human beings.

On top of all of that - I was blown away by the main topic of this documentary. The simple fact that the cure for cancer has been discovered, proven, and documented in multiple cases. The sad part is, the world of doctors and hospitals that we so blindly trust, have been lying to us for so long in order to keep the money rolling in. It is so sad to me that they would knowingly throw away a theory that works, in order to push more of their products onto the market so they may obtain riches.

If this movie is not eye opening to anyone else on the planet, I would be stunned. I, for one, will be changing a lot of things about my lifestyle. The foods I eat, the liquids I drink, and the lotions, soaps, makeup,etc. that I allow to absorb into my skin. I want to live a healthier life. I want to avoid giving myself cancer, because that is what we are all doing. We are feeding the cancer and giving it a strong environment to grow in, known as our bodies. I am making my stand, and going to do my best to leave no vacancy for cancer, or other diseases to reside inside of me.
