Look at this truth bomb: “90% of food in grocery stores didn’t exist 90 years ago. Guess what else? 90% of the diseases we face today didn’t either!” This isn’t a conspiracy theory. It’s math.
Our grandparents didn’t have aisles full of brightly colored boxes with 47 ingredients no one can pronounce. They ate real food like meat, eggs, butter, vegetables and fruit that was grown or raised nearby. Today we’re fed a steady diet of ultra-processed garbage loaded with seed oils, high fructose corn syrup, artificial flavors, emulsifiers and chemical preservatives. These “foods” were engineered in laboratories to be cheap, addictive and shelf-stable. They make us sick on purpose with chronic inflammation, obesity, diabetes, heart disease, autoimmune issues, gut destruction and cancer.
Then, the same system that poisoned us hands us over to Big Pharma for a lifetime of pills, injections, and surgeries. It’s the perfect business model. They create the disease and sell the “cure." We have to go back to our roots. Instead of chicken nuggets, buy actual chicken, season it and cook it yourself. Instead of store-bought cookies, make cookies with real butter, real flour and real sugar. Instead of “healthy” breakfast cereal or protein bars, eat eggs and steak. Yes, I realize even the raw ingredients aren’t perfect anymore and many animals are often fed garbage and some produce is sprayed to hell, but it is still infinitely better than the Frankenfood with a 400-word ingredient list you need a chemistry degree to read.
The solution isn’t complicated, it’s just inconvenient. Don't let corporations profit from our laziness. Start to meal prep, cook in batches and learn a handful of easy recipes. Roast a whole chicken on Sunday. Make big pots of bone broth. Hard-boil a dozen eggs. Slice vegetables and store them in glass. Keep real butter, salt, and herbs in the house. It may seem overwhelming in the beginning, but I promise this routine will get easier. It will cost less, taste better, your energy will come back, your inflammation will drop and your doctor visits will decrease. Your health and your wallet will both thank you.
Much Love, Lynn
