Re: Giving up processed foods?

[Guest guest]

Giving up procesed food isn't hard to do. And it saves you money.

I had a nutrition couselor that said everything you need is basically

found on the outer perimeter of the grocery store.

Processed food has lost a lot of nutritional value. And the

preservatives are not good for you. The reason why the shelf life is

so long for processed food is that the bacteria doesn't want to eat

it. The chemicals also kill the healthy bacteria in your inestines.

This will cause a nutrient deficeincy, so it's very plausable that

this will hinder recovery and possibly cause new illnesses.

This also means avoiding any kind of diet or light drinks and foods.

Artificial sweetners are just more bad chemicals. e.g. aspartame.

I wouldn't give up meat. Having a diet rich in protein makes the body

and mind stronger. From an evolution perspective, the strongest and

smartest animals are all meat eaters, with the exception of elephants.

I think that eating meat is a good thing. I wouldn't give it up.

If you do give up meat...you have to do more than just giving it up,

you have to study how to replace it with approriate proteins.

There are whole cultures of people who don't eat meat AND they have a

lower cancer rate.
