FED UP!

I know I am!


I just watched this movie. Wow it was so powerful. It is crazy how big a hold the food industry has on this country and the government. I know eating healthy is in large part our everyday choices, but I liked how the documentary stated "Eating healthy these days is like swimming upstream, the food industry makes it so hard". With over 60,000 products on the shelf in grocery stores today and billions in advertising it's like we are hardwired to make the wrong choice. Everything is processed, everything has added sugar. Even when the industries come out with low calorie options it has the same amount of sugar which means they are just giving us another unhealthy option, "junk is still junk, even if it is less junkie". We really just need to do our best to eat real foods, cook at home and whenever possible stand up for the cause of our nations health. It starts locally.
