We've all heard the phrase, "You are what you eat," but do we really want to be known as cheap, easy, and fake? Today we will look at why I believe you should avoid eating fast food at all costs. We'll look at what additives are in fast food, how they affect productivity, mood and wallet, the influence they have on our health, and why we choose to eat this food to begin with. What do we eat when we choose fast food? Have you ever thought where that chicken nugget comes from? Up to 80,000 chickens can live in a building without windows. They cannot move and are forced to live in small cages, stacked on top of each other, which can drive them crazy. Because they have so many roommates and are bored, they decide to attack other chickens and turn into cannibals. In order not to lose the "valuable meat" more easily, breeders will cut off their beaks and toes. Now imagine the enormous amount of stress you would be under if you lived in these conditions, the chicken's immune system becomes so weak that it fills it with antibiotics, which of course we then ingest ourselves when we eat that golden chicken nugget. Also, we should pay attention to what animals eat. The livestock industry buys millions of dead cats and dogs from animal shelters every year and feeds them to livestock that end up in your big mac. Did I forget to mention that one hamburger could contain the meat of over 1,000 cows? If you ever looked at the ingredients in a Big Mac, you would find that between the meat, bun, and sauce, you would digest over 100 different ingredients, chemicals, colorings, etc. I don't know about you, but this sounds delicious to me. How does this food affect our productivity and mood? Research in South Carolina... half of the paper... yes I already know all this, but we as a society live so much in the present that we fail to see the future effects it could have on us .Is it really that easy to avoid fast food? The answer is no. As someone who has lost almost 100 pounds in the last year and a half due to completely cutting out fast food and choosing healthier alternatives, I want everyone to know how much better you feel and how much your quality of life increases because you don't you eat it. I understand that not everyone can simply cut out fast food, but I hope that by reading all this information you choose to eat it in moderation and on a less frequent basis. We need to wake up as a society and take the time now to educate ourselves on this information and take the time to cook more meals at home, so that we don't give up time in the future by shortening our lifespan due to these unhealthy diseases. foods.
