It's all the quality of food we take in... The extra fat, sugars, over processed, boxed "dogfood" never should have been such a problem... "easy meals" boxed food, frozen dinners...here is a history how usda placed people and farmers in fear of food running out and taking control of it. . . farmers lost their farms to the government and the crops taken as well. Feeding programs started... And durring these times of the great depression and then durring war...the "need" to stockpile non-parrishables- and then "healthy" boxed meals.. Cereals.. Was seen more and more in the picture. No long having fresh food as avalible or affordable.

Now generations only know what was taught... And that sadly isnt meal prepping and picking out whole, fresh, living foods to make your meals. . . now the effect of more food related illness is crazy! And doctors along with drug companies couldnt be happier. There is treating symptoms...but educating and prevention goes much farther.
Changing eating habits and the even addictions will not be easy. We were wired and taught different. Our brains think this is how we survive on food. But we arent surviving and we have to do something to change this. Imagine how food will be 20 years or even 50 years from now.
It is taking every ounce of mental effort to not eat what always felt good and safe. Now knowing it is what caused my cancer, cushings, pcos, weight problems... Im going to fight as hard as i can to keep getting better with my transition to whole real foods.
Yes i know i dont use punctuations well im on my phone :p but thanks for reading my rant.
