The Tragedy of Manufacturing Foods

Written by lsmithers on June 30, 2009

We’ve been eating Frankenstein foods for 5 decades.  It began as far back as Crisco that was hailed much better for you than lard.  Then in the 60’s, we were assaulted with chemically treated soybean oils, packaged and wrapped foods designed for a very long shelf life with your health secondary–if it was thought of at all.

This is a very common sense question we must all ask.  What is your body to do with chemicals?  When ingredients are added to foods you eat, ingredients you cannot name, pronounce or recognize, how do you think your body will respond?

Foods stripped of nutrition by processing, a dash of chemicals to preserve and vitamin fortified is a recipe for illness.  Oh, it all gets quite confusing.  Flowing headlines on packages that sounds so good, labels with ingredients you can’t read; ingredients that hide thanks to an FDA ruling allowing it; commercials assaulting our senses of the latest new food ready in less than 60 seconds accommodating our non-stop lives.

The Great Cholesterol Lie The Great Cholesterol Lie

Omega-3 and Inflammation

Written by lsmithers on April 25, 2009

We are all familiar with inflammation from a cut or bruise. We see it with our eyes and feel pain associated in healing. What about inflammation we can neither see nor feel aptly referred to as “the silent killer?”

Inflammation is neither complicated nor mysterious.  It is your body’s protective response to a germ, bacteria or foreign invader threatening your life.  We cannot see the internal process but we see it externally in bruising, swelling and finally healing.  We feel all the stages of a cold or flu until miraculously symptoms abate and we feel well again.  This is inflammation responding as it was intended to protect you.
