How often do you open your news feed and encounter a message about the secret ingredient to good health? I have news for you. There is only one secret, plain and simple. Real Food.
Today the Sunday New York Times ran a glowing piece on a new protein bar called “David’s”. Apparently investors are so excited about it that they raised 75 million dollars in 9 months and they think the value of this company will reach close to a billion dollars.
Their secret? You have to read almost all the way to the end of the article for the big reveal. It is…E.P.G.
You don’t even need to read on to get a sense that an ingredient with those initials is not something you want to put in your body. But I’ll tell you anyway. E.P.G. stands for esterified propoxylated glycerol. This is a processed plant fat that “moves” through your digestive system practically unabsorbed.
Have you seen this game before? I don’t think I have to tell you that not many people would want to be around you with that thing moving through your digestive system. Once this product is released on the market, you are going to need to be careful who you stand next to on the elevator.
Eat real food! It’s the only answer.
