America has developed an irresponsible attitude that “things” are responsible for mortal woes, not personal habits.
During the Middle Ages witches possessed by spirits were blamed for ruined lives. Today we blame inanimate objects.
Whether it is food, alcohol, drugs or guns it is their physical existence, not their misuse or terrible decisions people make which imperils their life.
I beg to differ. Processed food is so completely stripped of all nutrients, bacteria won't even touch it. Most of the produce we eat is chemically enhanced and picked while still “green” so it can be shipped across the country. Regular farm animals are raised in cages while being fed the cheapest garbage and chemicals the farmer can get away with. Fish is farmed about the same way.
I started eating all organic about 5 years ago when I lived near lots of Amish farms. Including homemade icecream, cookies, fried food, etc. In 6 months, with no other lifestyle changes, I lost 50lbs and felt better than I ever remembered.
Humans were meant to eat natural produce ripe from plants and meat from healthy roaming animals. All this factory food is garbage. Try switching for just a few weeks and tell me how you feel.
