As many as 72.5 million Americans are obese. Just look at all the labels of processed foods in the supermarket aisles of our online products. Most of these foods are high in calories, fat (especially saturated fat unhealthy or "trans"), sodium (salt), refined sugars and flours. Over time, eating this way takes a toll on our metabolism and makes us prone to weight gain, blood sugar, high cholesterol, high blood pressure - that raise the risk of diabetes, heart disease and kidney failure.
We begin to see that research indicates that this may be a recipe for disease. Anyway, we know that this is a recipe for energy imbalance, to make known our metaphorical level of exhaustion, fatigue, premature careless mistakes and confusion. In other words, when nutrient-poor foods and beverages perpetually full of imitators harmful trans fats, saturated fats and refined sugars - full of preservatives, additives and artificial flavors and colors - we prepare for our metabolism and turn degrade our health.
All the tools that our body needs to function optimally and efficiently (eg, produce and use energy) can be found in food. We need food to live, to keep the structure and function of cells, and support and maintain the systems that keep us going strong - immune, digestive, respiratory, circulatory, etc.. However, some foods may have little or no nutrients we need, when we eat foods low in nutrients, ask the body to work less. When bad food provide nutrients and chemicals, and then we ask the body, not just to do their job every day with less resources, but also try to fight additional challenges.
Processed foods, including fast food, frozen and packaged meals are a major cause of obesity, type 2 diabetes and heart and stroke epidemic. But often they can not resist because they are tasty, cheap and convenient. So what is the bad foods?
Most contain excess sodium, fat, trans fats, calories and sugar.
They’re often nutrient deficient and have toxic ingredients.
The additives that enhance flavor and extend shelf life actually alters your taste buds so you develop an addiction to fat, sugar and salt.
There may be hidden ingredients that are not labeled, especially when coming from other countries where labeling is not required.
Processed foods are often over packaged which put strains on our environment.
Processed foods increase childhood obesity, decreasing their life span as well as increasing our health care budgets.
Some Examples of processed foods:
Processed nuts are high in sodium and often contain MSG.
Fat free ice cream needs thickening agents which gives a processed texture and flavor and often is not less calories since more sugar is added to enhance flavor.
Diet supermarket foods contain excess salt for flavor.
Processed chicken in fast food and frozen products is often cooked in a high sodium marinade and often injected with a sodium solution to keep the meat moist.
Boxed grains with flavored packages such as rice or couscous have excess sodium.
Fat free cottage cheese contains excess salt to obtain the curds and whey consistency.
White empty carbs, fried foods, cheese, sugar drinks and desserts are loaded with calories, sugar and fat.
