Ultra-processed US foods are ultra-bad for you. Here’s what to know

𝗜𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘀𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲'𝘀 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝘄𝗲𝗶𝗴𝗵 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆, you must educate yourself to the extent of knowing the full ramifications of putting the wrong kinds of food into your body. Read the labels, your body was not designed to eat "numbers", refined sugars and refined carbohydrates, processed foods full of preservatives, emulsifiers, colourants and flavouring "natural" agents. These substances not only increase the toxic load in your body but also increases the production of FAT. If you want to be healthy and in good shape... eat the foods Nature has provided for your body to work at its maximum efficiency.

I don’t believe people know that 99 percent of the 10,000+ additives in the American food supply have not been studied. I recently read from a reliable source that 1,000 of these additives are deemed unfit for human consumption and banned in other countries. Do you know that the FDA gave the food companies the authority to decide what additives are safe to put in our food supply? The FDA relinquished its duty to the entities it was supposed to regulate in the Generally Recognized As Safe (GRAS) provision to a 1958 amendment aimed to provide better protection from deadly food and misleading claims from unscrupulous food companies. Fast forward to 2024: toxic additives in our food supply are causing sickness, suffering, and premature death among Americans who rely heavily on ultra-processed foods. Nearly 70% of Americans’ daily caloric intake is ultra-processed foods which are chemical-laced, devitalized, and nutrient-deficient. Big Food poisons us for profi. Food and chemical companies’ execs and shareholders are only concerned that your kids and grandkids become customers for life-even if those lives are shortened by their products. #ultraprocessed #fda #foodadditives #chronicdisease #marginalized #innercity #foodaddiction #foodandbeverageindustry #chemicalindustry

7 Foods to Avoid Today, I’m going to tell you about 7 foods to avoid, along with some healthy alternatives. 1. Liquid sugar Soda, juice, and high-sugar beverages deplete your body's vitamin and mineral reserves and contribute to insulin resistance. If you like soda, try Zevia zero-sugar soda instead! 2. Processed cheese Pasteurized cheese products can’t be called cheese if they contain less than 51% cheese. Processed cheeses typically contain skim milk, canola oil, milk protein concentrate, modified food starch, whey protein, maltodextrin, preservatives, and salt. Choose real cheese instead! 3. Protein bars Many protein bars are worse than candy bars! They’re often made with soy protein isolates and casein, and can contain 30 to 47 grams of sugar per bar! This number doesn’t include the starches, which are also sugar. https://lnkd.in/gauVwK9d

high in saturated fat or ultra-processed food?

Stop hating Food Preservatives! It's essential to preserve food (esp. in business) Because: ✅ Keeping food helps us maintain the quality and taste over time. ✅ It reduces food spoilage, ensuring your favorite snacks aren't wasted. Not all food preservatives are bad as some of them come straight from nature, like salt, sugar, and vinegar. Yes, the majority of them are good for you as they contain artificial additives and excess sodium. Commonly used in the market Artificial Colors, Nitrites, Sulfites are a straight NO for your health. But we at Papadmalji Agro Foods Pvt Ltd & Bhujialalji Pvt. Ltd list all our ingredients, so you know exactly what you're enjoying. We choose preservatives that maintain flavor without compromising health. Remember, preserving food is crucial, and choosing the right preservatives makes all the difference #health #foodindustry #business
