Does the diet industry care?

The food industry is looking out for its own interests not yours. These are huge profits to be made by leading you up the proverbial garden path.

The industry and the media had so many people flocking to buy their no-fat, low-fat, lite-fat, reduced-fat products, however the large majority of these products where very high in refined carbs and sugar. The media had painted fat as the big enemy.  In reality the truth is as described in a book called Some Fats Heal and Some Fat Kill by Udo Erasmus. Some particular fats are vital to our good health and weight-loss, called essential fatty acids. Whereas processed fats are totally destructive. So people have become ‘essential fatty acid’ deficient.

The worst offenders are partially hydrogenated oils and fats.

History is repeating itself the food industry has now declared carbs as the enemy and people are buying their low-carb, lite-carb, no-carb products that are often high in processed destructive fats! I am being told by people they have cut right down on fruit as its a carb! Not that nations where eating enough fruit in the first place. It is good news that people are cutting down on white flour products but don’t be tempted to remove all the good carbs from your diet. You will end up being deficient is so many other ways.

The worst offenders is high fructose corn syrup HFCS an extremely processed product not to be confused with fructose from fresh whole fruit, that is entirely different.

These deficiencies set up cravings!
