Is there anything one person can do to change American food policy? How can you get involved?

This has not happened in over 50 years and it is happening today! You can view each of the panels for free online at the following link.

The White House is hosting a huge conference solely focused on Nutrition and its impact on our Health. Our government is finally recognizing that policies that directly affect all of us need to be updated.

Did you know that many substances allowed to be present in most processed foods and the things we consume regularly are actually banned in most countries?!?

Science has proven over and over again in the past few decades that the processed foods most of us eat all the time and raise our children on are directly correlated to the chronic diseases that we die from here in America - diseases that can often be PREVENTED like heart disease, stroke, diabetes, arthritis, hypertension, Alzheimer’s disease, and even some cancers.

It’s time our government makes sure the food on our shelves is safe by keeping the disease-causing garbage out of it! I’m eager to watch some of these panelists speak today and I’m truly hoping it leads to change 🤞

When I first saw these waffles I wanted to jump on a plane, fly to Kellogg’s headquarters, and give them a piece of my mind.

Selling products made for children full of six artificial colors is just awful! Not to mention the other processed and heavily refined ingredients with zero health benefits.

Artificial colors…

⚠️ Disrupt the immune system.

⚠️ May harm children’s health & should be avoided according to the American Academy of Pediatrics.

⚠️ Are banned in several countries.

⚠️Require a warning label Europe that states “May have an adverse effect on activity and attention in children.”

⚠️ Can be contaminated with carcinogens.

⚠️ Have a negative impact on children’s ability to learn.

⚠️ Have been linked to long-term health problems such as asthma, skin rashes, and migraines.

Why do the executives at Kellogg’s think it’s okay to target children with products full of artificial dyes?

This is wrong. Don’t you agree?

When you consume these subpar fats, your cell walls also become subpar. Instead of being flexible and responsive to intercellular communication, cell walls become stiff and rigid. The more rigid the walls, the slower the cell functions and more vulnerable it becomes to inflammation.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Most people label all fats as bad and lump them all together in a box. The truth is that all fats are not created equal. There are good fats, questionable fats and bad fats. Our government, media, scientists and doctors have advised us to eat the wrong types of fats for too long.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
You want to ensure your body has the fats it needs to construct high-quality cell walls. That means eating more omega-3 fats. Cell walls made from omega-3 fats are more flexible, which allows cells to respond more quickly to messages.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
These “good” fats also help your body produce prostaglandins otherwise known as the hormones that cool off inflammation.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Optimal sources of omega-3 fats include small cold-water fish like wild-caught salmon, sardines and herring, organic flax and h**p seed oils, walnuts, Brazil nuts and sea vegetables.⁣⁣
Scientists suspect that early humans ate almost equal amounts of omega-6 and omega-3 fats. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Our hunter-gatherer human ancestors got healthy omega-6 fats from seeds and nuts. They got their omega-3s from eating wild game and fish as well as foraging for wild plants.⁣⁣
⁣
As people began to refine oils from plants, the ratio became skewed more toward omega-6 fats. This created a drastic imbalance in the modern diet, making us more vulnerable to diseases such as cancer and heart disease.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The more omega-3 fats you eat, the easier your body can cool off, which means less inflammation that forms the root of nearly every chronic disease, especially those impacting the brain and the heart.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Besides eating plenty of wild, fatty fish, optimize your fat intake with nuts and seeds, grass-fed butter (or ghee if you’re dairy sensitive), avocados, grass-fed meats, extra-virgin olive oil and olives.⁣
