Essay / What is actually in our food? - 1466
Have you ever wondered why everywhere you go? There are obese people, and all we have to help in this fight are diets such as Nutria System, Jenny Craig and Weight Watchers? As you can see, people today are lazy, they don't want to work to feel better; they want to eat a magic food without thinking twice, even though it is scientifically proven that a balanced meal and daily exercise help to lose those extra pounds. This is why I ask the question "What is actually in our food", because not only are foods in all their forms unnatural, they are unhealthy, they are also a danger for our body. Over time, the human body can develop a series of diseases when consuming an excessive amount of artificial foods, these diseases can include cancer, ADHD and obesity. The human body is designed to digest the Earth's natural nutrients, whether they are meats, grains, herbs, or crops. The question is: do we really want to know what we are consuming? Over the years, many scientists have worked hard in laboratories trying to determine which chemicals we would prefer, whether in terms of taste, smell, texture or appearance. Companies care more about the richness of the product than the well-being of our planet. Scientists fill the product with a preferred amount of salt, sugar and/or fat, just so the consumer buys the item. Colors in foods alone are so unnatural that they could cause serious complications in children. Since you are now aware of all these unreasonable things happening, are you curious to know what all the packaged foods in your cupboards mean? Many food labels are what I call dangerous cover-ups and deceptions that make you think one thing and consume...... middle of paper ...... you choose a packaged blueberry muffin instead of a brownie, you're actually, it's the same thing as the brownie. Blueberries are made from chemicals, corn syrups, and other artificial substances, all with the goal of a longer shelf life. Don't be fools or dilapidated simple-minded people; expand your knowledge of what's going on inside you. Be responsible for your own life. Fight for what is right and just plain immoral. Did you know that when you die and decompose, all those chemicals and impurities in your system will stay the same for thousands or even millions of years? I bet generations to come will look back at the irresponsible lives we lived and think about how ignorantly we do this to ourselves. Please think about everything I've shared with you, because if I've helped at least one person open their eyes to this issue, I've gotten my message across..
