How Food Giants Keep Us Sick, Fat and Coming Back for More

 "A new book suggests a more calculated and insidious reason why two-thirds of American adults and one-third of children are overweight or obese: The food industry started crafting foods that were of little nutritional value but kept consumers reaching for more". Shari Roan

I stumbled across this article this morning and thought it was pretty interesting. It goes along with what I have been saying for years... these big wig food industries don't care about our health- they only care about the almighty dollar $$$$. Nothing surprises me about both the headline or the content of this article, which that in itself is fairly disturbing. Wouldn't it be nice if the crap foods they are concocting these days in their laboratories weren't even available? To alleviate the temptation altogether so that many Americans, including children, wouldn't even be tempted only makes sense. Why do we need all of that sugar, all of that salt, and all of that man-made highly processed garbage? WE DON'T!!!

The more research I do, and the more articles I come across the more confident I feel in my decision to promote a paleo lifestyle. So let's continue to fuel our bodies with the good stuff, and let's eat for our goals at hand. After all, the games are coming up!!!

Attached you will find the article....
