The politics of food is simple. It's a huge multi-billion dollar industry. The people who make and process foods that are not good for health have strong lobbying interests and even front science organizations that come out with spin saying these foods are healthier than the nutritionists claim.
Cattle ranchers, meat packers, dairy producers, milk bottlers; oil seed growers, makers of soft drinks, candy bars and snack foods; owners of fast-food outlets and franchise restaurants; media corporations and advertising agencies; manufacturers and marketers of television sets and computers and, eventually, drug and health care industries all have a vested interest in people eating unhealthy foods because they make money from it, one way or another.
Food Conspiracy Info
The food industry makes money when we eat. I make no distinction between people selling supposedly healthy foods and people selling junk food. They all want you to eat.
Based on all the so-called nutritionists, dietitians and other so-called health experts I've seen on TV, I feel where they all fail is that they're telling you to constantly eat. Even if you're trying to lose weight, they're telling you to keep eating. Just eat healthier meals.
This is their business, to tell you to eat and what to eat and it's the food industry's business to push food on you. When everybody eats well, they're comfortable and it's good for the economy. I feel that the government, through the USDA and other agencies, also instills this incessant need for food in people.
If I didn't know any better, I would say it's a conspiracy. Get people hooked on the pleasures of food. It keeps them conformist, complacent consumers and makes money for the food industry and the economy.
Like I say elsewhere, we easily eat double what we need. It's more like three or more times more than we need. Eating so much wears our bodies out prematurely, even if it's healthy food. You don't need it all.
My point is do not listen to the propaganda about eating breakfast, eating all your meals, etc. We can get by on much, much less food and it will not affect our health negatively.
In fact, eating less will make you feel better because you're taking in less calories, your body weight will be lighter and your body does not have to work so hard digesting all that food that you poop and piss out anyway.
Don't listen to them. Their bottom line in promoting any type of food is to make money off you.
Another conspiracy I came across is that just like tobacco companies put nicotine into cigarettes to get people hooked on it, some people say the food companies put addictive ingredients in food.
Food Knowledge Info
All food is medicine and the best food is the best medicine.
Hippocrates
The food industry is roughly divided into two major subdivisions, agricultural and
manufacturing/ processing with the subsidiary
fields of transport and retail.
There are hundreds of cookbooks at #641 at the library. Try #611-613 at the library, #618.92 or RJ206 for children.
Your food shall be your medicine.
Hippocrates
The primary cause of disease is a weakened the body, arising from faulty nutrition.
There are 45 substances called essential nutrients.
The most basic are oxygen and water.
The other 43 essential nutrients are classified into five main groups:
carbohydrates
fats
proteins
minerals
vitamins
All 45 of these nutrients work together. The absence of any of them will result in disease and eventually in death.
Almost all varieties of disease can be produced by a deficiency of any of theseessential nutrients.
The best foods are:
Seeds, nuts, grains
Millet, wheat, oats, barley, brown rice, beans, peas, mung beans, alfalfa seeds, soya beans, sunflower seeds, pumpkin seeds, almonds, peanuts.
Vegetables
Edible roots, stems, leaves
Fruits
fresh fruits and dry fruits such as raisins, prunes and figs.
