Recently traveled to England and was amazed how much better the food tasted.
I started reading labels, even the chocolate bars had pronouncable ingredients occuring in nature. Apple juice, for example, consisted of crushed apples, water & vitamin C. It tasted like apple sauce, or how apple sauce should taste without the added chemicals. Not only did the food taste good, I felt good, I had more energy, I wasn’t bloated after a meal, I walked on average 28,000 steps like it was nothing. I have a mostly sedentary life at home so I’m not in great shape. I ate 3 meals a day there when I only eat 1 at home because it makes my stomach hurt.
I’ve continued clean eating since I’ve been home, but its hard to find clean food. Most unexpectedly, I’m losing weight, even though my activity level has returned to a somewhat sedentary life. I do go on more walks now the weather is nicer. Maybe because I feel better.
I’m convinced our food is the root cause of disease. Fibromyalgia didn’t exist 40-50 years ago. I suffer daily from Fibro. We have more heart disease, auto-immunology disease, diabetes, cancer, etc because our food is killing us.
Please get the chemicals out of our food. We are poisoning ourselves, our children and destroying our health.
I’m not a great writer, can’t put these ideas into a policy proposal, but I’m sure someone can.
