A person could almost feel dizzy trying to figure out how to live a healthy lifestyle. At one point coffee was to be avoided, at another one cup per day wouldn’t be dangerous, at a third point 2 cups per day was good for one’s health. Everyone should have eight –ten ounce glasses of water not counting other drinks. In another recommendation, coffee and tea (with no cream or sugar) counted in the total. A different recommendation indicates dangers in taking in too much water. One study indicates day time napping interfers with cognitive function. In another, naps are beneficial. Low fat, low carb, low protein diets all have advocates. High fat, high protein, high complex carbs are touted by others. Everybody should get eight hours of sleep every night or is it that sleep amounts vary by individual needs? It is all very frustrating if one is hoping to take care of one’s health. Where is the reliable information? Do we just throw up our hands and say “What’s the point? My loving step mother, Marie, was perpetually on a diet. My brother could be really picky about what he wanted to eat. After one too many requests for a dish to suit his taste, my stepmother stamped into the kitchen muttering ,”It makes me so mad, I could just eat it all myself!” Perhaps choices we know to make and the lesson in all this is that we will never find perfect permanent guidance for all the problems of our lives. Sometime we just have to make the best choices we know to make and live with the results. As human beings we do not do “perfect” all that well. Sometimes our quest for the “best” or the “perfect” can block us from the “good”. Maybe we just have to get on with doing the best we can and trust God to help us on the way as we journey with him.
