You are probably asking why I am sharing this latest news story with you? WELL….
This story is just another reason why REAL WHOLE-FOOD BASED NUTRITION in our lives are so much more important than we realize.
Let’s review the basics of processed food, alone:
- Processed foods are an illusion, with hidden Sugar, Sodium, and Fat.
- Processed Foods Are Usually High in Sugar and High Fructose Corn Syrup
- Processed Foods Are “Hyper Rewarding” and Lead to Over-consumption
- Processed Foods Contain All Sorts of Artificial Ingredients
- Many People Can Literally Become Addicted to Processed Junk Foods
- Processed Foods Are Often High in Refined Carbohydrates
- Most Processed Foods Are Low in Nutrients
- Processed Foods Tend to be Low in Fiber
- It Requires Less Energy and Time to Digest Processed Foods
- Processed Foods Are Often High in Trans Fats or Processed Vegetable Oils
“Coronary heart disease, diabetes, stroke and cancer – four of the top ten chronic diseases that kill most of us – ‘can be traced directly to the industrialization of our food’ ” according to Michael Pollan.”
My point is that not only are we putting these life-threatening ingredients in our bodies, we don’t know what else could be found in them that could play a major role in our health. We rely on people and machines to process these foods, leaving plastics and all kinds of other things mixed in.
It could potentially be very dangerous and hazardous to our health.
How do we protect ourselves, and our health? We eat REAL FOODS!
