Do You Eat Like a Thoroughbred?

If you decide to invest in a racehorse, you will spend from $5,000 to $40,000 to buy the horse; then you can estimate about $25,000 a year for maintenance and training. Once you have made the initial investment and you have agreed to the yearly commitment, you will want a nutrition program that will keep your horse in the best possible condition. You want to make sure that your horse eats the highest quality grain and hay to ensure that the horse’s energy level, stamina, and overall short and long-term health are in peak condition. You take excellent care of you horse because you can put a dollar amount on his cost and potential earnings. Your investment is too high to risk anything that would prevent your horse from racing.

How much is your body worth? Unlike a racehorse, if you get sick you cannot buy another body. How much care do you take in giving yourself the highest quality foods to ensure your energy level, stamina, and overall short and long term health are in peak condition? If you could put a dollar amount on your body, would you take better care of it? What is high energy level and good health worth to you? If you cannot put a value on good health, you can easily price the cost of poor health in terms of doctors, medications, hospital stays, missed work etc.

Let’s Cook Tonight® believes your body is worth at least as much as a thoroughbred racehorse. Would you go to the stable at night and give your racehorse junk food, packaged food, frozen food, and processed food? Do you give them to yourself? An occasional treat is good and welcomed, just like feeding a carrot to a horse, but if you want to run like a thoroughbred, and win races, then you will have to eat real foods with real flavor.

Do you agree?

Cooking is easier than you think and you are worth the time and effort it takes.

Simple cooking idea: To save time shopping, make your shopping list match the layout of the grocery store.
