Avoid overly-processed foods that are detrimental to your health and well-being
Sugar and White Flour
Refined and artificial sweeteners, as well as bleached and processed flours, are inflammatory foods devoid of any nutrients. Long-term consumption of these foods leads to many health conditions including heart disease, diabetes, cancer and high blood pressure.
Damaged Oils and Fats
Consuming processed fats and oils increases the risk of death from heart disease and displaces the nutrients found in healthy fats, such as grass-fed tallow or butter. Over time, consuming this damaged food leads to chronic disease.
Additives and Preservatives
Chemicals added to increase shelf-life or alter flavor such as monosodium glutamate (msg), sodium nitrate and butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) are unnatural, and are known carcinogens and endocrine disruptors linked to health conditions such as cancer, kidney problems and heart disease.
GMOs and Over-Hybridized Crops
Genetically-modified crops are not proven safe for human consumption and have been banned in many countries. The widely-used herbicide Roundup contains glyphosate which destroys nutrients and is linked to inflammation, cancer, respiratory disease, birth defects and infertility.
Use traditional fats and oils
Oils
Olive, coconut, palm, and minimally processed seed and nut oils (no cottonseed or canola)
