Fooled, Not Fueled By Fake Food

The BIG FOOD Fake:

MonsantoI think big food propaganda is to blame for our food addiction. Agree or disagree?

“Because of rising obesity rates among young people, more and more baby boomers may outlive their children.” ~ FROM THE WEBMD ARCHIVES April 9, 2010

Our parents may outlive us? Say WHAT??? 

This is a photo of produce grown in our family garden. I thought it clever to send Monsanto a little message since they are a large part of this epic problem!

As we embark on a 4 day adventure to spend time with Harvard economists, Harvard researchers, scientists and visionaries, on a mission to take back human health, one bite at a time…the possibility that I may outlive my kids, drives me to change what I buy, what we eat and how we live. You may want to do the same!

Fooled By Food Fads:

  • Stop counting calories…carbs…fats…
  • Stop thinking zero, non-fat, sugar-free is GOOD for you!
  • Start counting NUTRIENTS.

Statistics our children face:

  • 40% of Americans born from 2000 to 2011 will develop diabetes, double the risk of those born a decade earlier.
  • Cancer will affect 1 in 2 men and 1 in 3 women in the United States, and the number of new cases of cancer is set to nearly double by the year 2050.
  • The percentage of children with an ADHD diagnosis continues to increase, from 7.8% in 2003 to 9.5% in 2007 and to 11.0% in 2011
  • 2014 – One in 68 U.S. children has an autism spectrum disorder (ASD), a 30% increase from 1 in 88 two years ago, according to a new report released Thursday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

Need I continue????

I’ve watched Fed Up​, Food Inc​, Food Matters, GMO OMG…
I’ve read Food Politics, Salt Sugar Fat​, Fast Food Nation…
I’ve watched my husband and son both suffer with chronic illness…
We’ve all watched someone we love STRUGGLE with chronic illness…

THIS IS THE REALITY:

“We are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are treated by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.” ~ Wendell Berry

Attention people…Parents, teachers, Drs, lawyers, rich, poor, single, married, young, old, black, white or polka dot…

BIG FOOD corporations aren’t going to change a thing because big food is big money and sickness is mega money!

Cheap Fake Food = Big Fat PROFITS

What Shall We Do?

If the food we buy and feed our children is killing them…let’s stop buying it. SIMPLE as that. Grow a garden, source local, eat more live foods, drink filtered water, not from a plastic bottle. Vote with our dollar. Where we spend is who we support.

We need a slap in the face to wake us from this fake food-induced coma. We absolutely CAN prevent our children from dying before us…it starts with us. My family has made the switch to American sourced and made, using natural ingredients that are not harmful for us or the environment. It’s time we ALL did! More info about making the switch.

STOP BUYING FAKE FOOD. Big food won’t like it but your body will.
