FOOD: POISON OR MEDICINE?

If you are like most people, then, naturally, you care about your car. You regularly undergo maintenance, wash and cover it with wax every weekend, and surely fill it with the best gasoline to get the most out of your investment.

Despite the fact that people regularly take care of their cars and other things, they neglect their body, getting carried away by delicious, but empty products that do not give our body anything useful.

Recent studies published in the June issue of the journal “Food Chemistry and Analysis” showed that the diet of approximately 5,000 adults, almost one-third, consists of food harmful to health.

The first place was taken by sweets, hamburgers, pizza and chips, and our people added sour cream, mayonnaise, buns and cakes to the list.

According to the lead researcher Gladys Block, healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables account for only 10% of the calories consumed in the diet of US residents. A significant part of Americans (including our compatriots) are undernourished in terms of vitamins and minerals. The bloc also stressed that unhealthy foods only add calories, but they have no nutritional value and they are increasingly contributing to the epidemic of obesity in the US and other diseases (arthritis, cancer, etc.)

Undoubtedly, the most valuable investment in our physical environment is that we consume daily to maintain and enhance our vitality.

You can start by replacing sweet candy and chocolate, high-calorie soda drinks, all kinds of pickles and other unhealthy foods with healthy foods consisting of whole grains, fruits, lean meats and vegetables, with a volume of at least 60%.

After such a revision of the diet, do not be surprised that your “engine” will start working without failures and will give the greatest return.
