In Defense of Food

The next point is to 'avoid foods containting ingredients that are a) unfamiliar, b) unpronounceable, c) more than five in number, or d) that include high-fructose corn syrup.'

This is my favorite point because it's practical to take shopping with you. Next time you shop, read the ingredients on everything that goes into your cart. It will open your eyes.

Many people have learned to look at the nutritional facts part of the label, but don't bother to look at the ingredients list.

Bread is the most fasinating section to look at. The more 'nutritious' the bread, the more additives there seem to be. The white breads that are as healthy as whole grains...look back at my blog about fibre please. This is a marketing ploy!

How about cookies? Or go to the snacks section...scary stuff folks!

Let's get back to food and away from chemicals. You're body will thank-you.


Yours in Health,


Kerri
