Know your food.

Introduction

Although I was planning to do TECH blogging, today I saw a documentary called "What The Health," and I feel an urgent need to talk about this.

Today, the leading cause of death is heart diseases, and as a normal person, I used to think it was mainly due to excessive eating of sugary and fatty diets. But it turns out, that was not the case at all! What we have been taught and presented by media and different health organizations was utterly misleading.

Meat think healthy , think again

The documentary starts with the World Health Organization classifying processed meat as carcinogenic, just like sausage and bacon. Can you believe it? Processed meat can increase cancer chances by 18%, which is as bad as smoking!

And guess what? Even chicken and turkey can be classified as processed meat if they are preserved using certain chemicals. I mean, that kinda makes sense, right? Preserving meat with chemicals can't be good for us.

A Troubling Future

But the more I watched, the darker it got. Dr. Michael A. Klaper dropped a bombshell: most kids in the US develop fatty streaks in their arteries, the first stage of atherosclerosis leading to heart attacks and strokes in the future! Isn't that downright alarming?

Unmasking the Culprits:

I don't want to point fingers at any industry or organization, but the documentary did an excellent job of exposing all the culprits behind this health crisis.

you may think, you have your government your , health organization that will research and provide you with safe diet and eating that will make you healthy, OOPS!, then be sure to watch that video

Let's talk about diabetes now. I mean, we all know sugar and high carbohydrate foods play a part, but did you know there are two types of diabetes? Type 1 is when your body doesn't make enough insulin, and Type 2 is when your body doesn't use insulin properly. And guess what? Type 2 diabetes is caused by a diet that builds saturated fat in the blood - that typical meat-based diet! It causes insulin resistance in the body! So, should we just blame all meat and animal-based products?

Questioning "Healthy" Dairy Choices

Oh, and let's not forget about the evils of sugar, which have taken all the attention away from the harmful effects of meat, dairy, and eggs.

Yeah, those same eggs and milk that were taught as healthy breakfast options in school aren't as good for us as we were led to believe.

And don't even get me started on chicken! It's on the same bad list, mainly because of industrialization, farming techniques, and packaging that make it carcinogenic! I know, it's crazy!

A Fishy Situation

And what about fish? I mean, think about all the environmental pollutants that end up in those poor creatures and then end up in us when we eat them. It can even pass through milk and eggs! And hey, even if we think we're eating organic or grass-fed animals, those toxic pollutants are still there!

And if you think drinking milk is the way to go for strong bones, think again! It increases the chance of causing cancer and heart diseases. Can you believe that? It's like we've been fed a pack of lies our whole lives!

Awakening to Conscious Choices:

I know some people are aware that eating animal meat isn't healthy or humane, and they're aware of all the things the dairy and poultry industries are doing. But I think most people will continue to consume it because they just don't know what they're eating! They don't know the long-term consequences, and they're unaware of the advantages of a plant-based diet.

The numerous health benefits of adopting a plant-based diet. Include information on how it can reduce the risk of heart disease, improve overall well-being, and potentially even reverse certain health conditions.yeah, it can reverse diseases , amazing .

I was like -

Wait, so you're telling me that even bodybuilders can get lean and muscular without eating animal products? It sounds unbelievable, but it's true! Many bodybuilders and athletes have embraced plant-based diets and achieved remarkable results.

The misconception about not getting enough protein on a plant-based diet has been shattered. In fact, not only do we get enough protein from plant sources like legumes, tofu, quinoa, and seeds, but the quality of protein is even better! And guess what?

The bonus is that we get an abundance of fiber and a wide range of essential nutrients, promoting overall health and vitality. So, not only can we build muscle and stay fit on a plant-based diet, but we also steer clear of those dreaded risks of cardiac arrest and heart disease caused by excess fat in the blood. It's time to debunk the myths and embrace the incredible benefits of a plant-based lifestyle!

Personally

I'm having dinner tonight, and I don't think I'll be able to enjoy my yogurt dessert with a smile on my face. Now that I know what it could be doing to my body, I feel frustrated and trapped. I hope one day I'll be able to stop myself from eating things that harm my health. But for now, I can't help but wonder if even my vegetables and fruits are sprayed with chemicals worse than that meat and dairy.
This is my text, and boy, I can't believe I've been so ignorant all this time!
