I am here to tell you that the food industry is lying to you. There are many “safe” food additives on the market that are actually NOT SAFE! Yes, you heard me well AND I will make a list below to prove it. These food additives literally make you sicker, steal your youth, and make you gain weight.
Food additives are man-made synthetic chemicals used to preserve food, so that it tastes better, to add so-called nutritional value and in addition … YOUR MECHANISM OF HUNGER IGNORE WHAT YOU GIVE WISH TO EAT MORE FOOD! So put yourself in the place of the food industry … If people eat more and more food, then we can sell more! It’s a great way to make money if you think about it for a second. Dishonest but brilliant. BELIEVE IT OR NOT, BUT IT IS GOOD WHAT HAPPENS.
Will you also be among the victims?
The sad thing about this whole situation is that their general audience has no idea that they are being lied to. That makes me think of a quote …
“Repeat a lie loud enough and long enough and people will believe it. – Adolf Hitler
The media uses marketing psychology tactics to make you believe that foods that are “fat free” are healthy and help you lose weight.
Please, please, please, do not believe in everything you hear. Especially from information, advertising, television, radio, etc. Their role is to captivate your attention and sell you things. Whether it’s their belief system or weight loss pills.
Well, I’m sorry to have to moan so much. I’m just sensitive to this topic because I see people every day in my office who are suffering because they have been lied to.
The worst ingredients on a food label
High Fructose Corn Syrup: This is a man-made sweetener that is actually less expensive to produce and sweeter than sugar. There are even new commercials that tell you that high fructose corn syrup is good for you. They try to say that it is safe and natural.
Let me ask you this: Can you squeeze high fructose corn syrup? Can your mother make high fructose corn syrup at home? NO ! It’s a lie ! Do you remember the quote I put above? High Fructose Corn Syrup is by no means natural and overrides your hunger mechanism so you can eat without feeling full, which will make you GROW.
It is associated with problems with blood glucose (ATTENTION parents: childhood obesity and juvenile diabetes are increasing!) And ADD / ADHD too. High fructose corn syrup is one of the main responsible!), to depression, fatigue, vitamin B deficiency, indigestion and cavities.
High fructose corn syrup is found in soda, candy, condiments, cereals, bread, etc.
Monosodium glutamate (GMS): GMS is a food seasoning that is unfortunately well known in Chinese cuisine. It is also hidden in all kinds of foods and has different names: hydrolysed vegetable protein, hydrolysed plant extract, proteinaceous plant extract, sodium caseinate, yeast extract, textured protein, autolyzed yeast, hydrolysed oatmeal, Natural flavors and calcium caseinate just to name a few … there are dozens of other names.
GMS is the most addictive substance known to man and makes you want to eat again and again! It's called an excitotoxin because it excites your brain cells to the point of exploding and dying. Does it seem like a good thing to put in your body and that of your children?
Be careful … we find everything; it goes from fast foods, to children's snacks, to drinks, chips etc. This causes allergic reactions (It has been proven that 80% of people are allergic to MSG).
MSG causes headaches, irritations, nausea, disorders of the reproductive system, cerebral system, nervous system, hypertension.
Artificial sweeteners: Splenda (Sucralose), Nutra-Sweet (Aspartame), Equal (Aspartame), SweetNLow (Saccharin), Sorbitol, Maltodextrin, Dextrose and Acesulfame all falsely represent weight loss foods. They are very toxic to your body and will go beyond your mechanism of hunger which will cause you to have more desire for food.
Avoid all that is labeled without fat, lightened, light, calorie-free, sugar-free, lean in sugar and lean in fat. Most of these foods have been filled with artificial sweeteners. READ YOUR LABELS.
Having no calories in your "diet" drink is it worth it?
Artificial sweeteners are linked to various cancers, blood sugar problems, disorders of the nervous system (nutra sweet in Coca Cola Light has been shown to cause Gulf War syndrome) and menstrual difficulties to name a few. .
Trans fats: The partially hydrogenated soybean oil, margarine, hydrogenated vegetable oils are fats whose molecular structure has been chemically modified in a laboratory. They will guarantee you to accumulate the pounds because your body has no idea what it is supposed to do because they are synthetic. They are associated with heart disease, breast and colon cancer, atherosclerosis, and high cholesterol levels.
Food colors: Red dye, blue nr1, yellow n6 etc. They are made from coal tar and are powerful carcinogens. They cause allergic reactions and may contain contaminants that cause cancer.
Preservatives / Additives: Potassium benzoate, sulphites, nitrites, nitrates, BHA, they can all lead to liver problems, kidney problems, behaviors, birth defects, cancers, infertility, weakening of the immune system, headaches, nausea, etc.
Let's summarize everything we've learned today:
- Make sure you read the food labels!
- Educate yourself on foods that will help you lose weight and those who are only "impostors".
- If the list of ingredients is long … avoid it! It will not help you lose weight and will make you sick!
- Eat food in its natural state - the more processed a food is, the further it is from its natural state and the less healthy it is for you and the more likely it is to make you fat.
- Avoid anything that is labeled fat-free, calorie-free, low-calorie, or low-fat.
