502-Eating Clean Food Equals Freedom
Let me make the following bold statement; every person (or animal) has one thing in common-eating food is the most important aspect of life, period. With that said I offer the following:
Eating clean food is a revolutionary act that in many ways flies in the face of what “they” want you to do.
Everywhere you look companies and governments are trying harder and harder to dictate what you eat. Their advice is printed in magazines, in doctor’s offices, on billboards, radio ads, tv ads, pre-roll videos, etc.
The drumbeat of advice that’s bordering on being pushy is nauseating especially when this advice has words like “FDA approved” “CDC recommended” or “health experts say…”
I operate from the approach that whatever “they” say or recommend if I do the opposite.
They want me to eat plant-based foods so I eat more meat. They want me to drink “safe & effective” USDA grade A skim milk so I drink full-fat raw milk purchased directly from family farms. They want me to use “heart-healthy” polyunsaturated seed oil so I use lard, butter, coconut, and olive oil.
In order to avoid grocery store CAFO meats I buy direct from farms or grass-fed/finished aggregators.
Not food related but when they try to force me to take their serums in my arm I tell them to piss off.
Let’s be clear, IMO if you take “their” advice your lifespan is in serious jeopardy, this is a documented fact.
Why does the food taste like nothing?
Even the fruit these days is being bathed in questionable substances like waxes and other more evil and non-washable, non-natural encasements funded by wealthy tech billionaires. Plus I find most store-bought fruit to be tasteless and expensive. It seems most of the food supply has lost its flavor, its taste and is not healthful. The middle of the store is filled with items I no longer recognize, sure the name and brands are the same, but the ingredient lists are long, hard to pronounce, and downright comical.
I don’t eat this, but many people do…..
Food additives are “generally considered as safe” really ? who says that ? Ahhhh..the FDA…same group that approves drugs to later pull them when people die….sorry I don’t trust them.
I think we are all safer when we just eliminate all the packaged foods like chips, crackers, and most packaged condiments, the CAFO meats, the cheap sugar-filled dairy items, the processed meats, seed-oil fried fast foods items (ya even Chik fil A), and focus on real foods, that we grow or raise ourselves or buy from ethical growers. We cannot as a society keep listening to these “experts” by following the food pyramid and hoping for the best.
We need to take matters into our own hands and realize that food choices are critical to long-term health or lack thereof. Please start reading labels closely, if it has a label you probably want to scrutinize it or just forget it. I challenge anyone to find me a healthy person, who is able-bodied that eats from the center of the store or regularly eats seed oil fried foods and junk foods……I’m waiting….!
I know, some of you think this sounds high and mighty and possibly negative, but I’m just sharing what I think. We have cleaned up our diets and stopped buying chips and crackers with limited exceptions. I was pissed the other day at my father-in-law who does not care about what he eats bought all sorts of garbage for our kids while we were away; Doritos, potato chips, and candy all the while good raw milk was going bad in the fridge along with other healthy foods. Even my kids who grew up eating well will choose the garbage snack foods because they are so addicting once you try them. Eat only 1 Dorito, I dare you, it’s almost impossible.
