Hopefully by now you have read at least some of the information on this site. More than likely you are now pissed off for not knowing these facts presented to you. YOU will want to take positive actions to change not only your families eating habits but perhaps share this information with others.
My personal recommendations are as follows: First, it will be almost impossible to completely eliminate products with high fructose corn syrup but you can begin with the elimination of soda. If you must have soda, Jones makes several flavors sweetened with pure cane sugar. Thanks to the media attention given to the movie "Super Size Me" my children's school has yanked out all soda machines. Change is in the air folks.
Next, read the labels on everything especially juices and breads. Look for those without High fructose corn syrup.
A must, get rid of anything containing aspartame. This is another devil in disguise and commonly found in "sugar free" sodas, yogurts, and almost anything "lite" except for beer. The only way this product got to market was by political corruption and falsified documents. It's another killer and a whole other web site in itself. Just Google it and see for yourself or just watch this video on The Dangers of Aspartame.
Look for dairy products saying contains "No rBST". Watch Monsanto Exposed.Monsanto execs should be drawn and quartered for bringing this growth hormone to our food system. Thanks to the movie The Corporation, which I highly recommend, pressure on milk producers has increased to the level that they are now advertising the fact their products contain "No rBST". See why Europe banned Monsanto's Toxic Milk. See what we can accomplish when we just say no.
Next are supplements. Yes, yes, yes. Our lack of nutritional food demand.s it or you will put your families health at risk. There are links on the right to those nutrition supplements I have personally tested and approve.
learn all you can about the vaccines given to your children. You do have the right to JUST SAY NO!
Lastly, grass fed meat. Yes it's more expensive but so is a bout with e-coli.
Here's some tips from the Oprah show-
5 Ingredients in Foods to avoid
The first step to getting on the path to better eating is to take stock of your pantry! Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen say there are five ingredients that should be banned from your diet forever.
The first ingredient to avoid is hydrogenated oil, which often masquerades as partially hydrogenated oil. Dr. Roizen says we should also eliminate sugar and high fructose corn syrup from our foods. “We eat 63 pounds of [high fructose corn syrup] a year, which puts 33 pounds on the typical American,” he says.
Enriched flour is the fourth ingredient to avoid. “[Enriched] means they took all the good stuff out and put a little back,” Dr. Roizen says. In 1960, Americans didn't’t use enriched flour, but today we consume 63 pounds a year, he says.
The fifth offenders are white foods—including bleached flour. The only white items you should have in your fridge are egg whites, cauliflower and fish, Dr. Roizen says.
Your favorite snack foods won’t advertise their artificial ingredients—Oprah’s medical experts say you have to read the small print for yourself!
Supermarket Secrets: How to shop smarter at the food store
After you’ve read the ingredients on the label, check out how much saturated fat and sugar is in your food. Dr. Roizen says you want to buy foods that contain less than four grams of saturated fat and less than four grams of sugar per serving.
Keep in mind—polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats are good for you and help fight depression.
Can’t seem to find any food that fits the bill? Dr. Oz says you should head over to the produce aisle and stock up on fresh fruits and vegetables. Packaged goods usually contain harmful, artificial ingredients because they’re designed to stay on the shelf for years, he says.
The supermarket shelves are filled with foods that seem healthy…but don’t be fooled. Dr. Oz and Dr. Roizen say that 50 percent of the sugar we eat comes from “fat free” foods like salad dressings and soft drinks. In fact, young women get about half their daily calories from salad dressing! Dr. Oz says to substitute olive oil and vinegar for a healthier alternative.
