Process Foods: Affordable Meals or a Deadly Killer?
We have heard the saying we are what we eat its not any closer from the truth. People are so busy working and making a living that many people choose something that is cheap over something that is healthy simply because its more expensive. Many people don't know that the reason behind why processed foods are much cheaper than organic and Non-GMO foods is because the government heavily subsidizes foods that are not healthy over foods that are healthy.
America has no restrictions when it comes to additives and preservatives being put in our foods and its these additives and preservatives that are causing people to get sick and many get cancer because of the chemicals that are being put into our food supply and unfortunately people are so focused surviving and to make something quick they are jeopardizing their family's health and their own health.
It really bothers me how the government allows companies to put so many preservatives into our food and not warn us about the health issues it can cause to people. For example Europe and Canada and most of the world if you read the ingredients they don't have the additives as we do here. For example Coke in Mexico is made with cane sugar not with high fructose or high corn syrup and chocolate from Sweden doesn't have emulsifiers or alkali as in American chocolate.
The people need to read and be careful what they consume and eat because in the long run it will save you from getting sick and getting cancer in the future and we have to make wise choices and read the labels in what we will eat.
