I will revisit one of my 'hot spots'....processed food. First and foremost, if anyone product has more than 2 ingredients in it...why are you eating it?! Because it tastes good, right?! Well...think about this:
*The nutrition label is legally allowed to be up to 300% inaccurate. So, honestly counting calories is a great first step, but it really comes down to the ingredients.
*Most processed food has (minimally) 5 ingredients. Most common are the words that end in 'ose', which are chemically processed sugars.
*Some processed foods have up to 35 ingredients!!!!
Let's take one of my old time favs: Rice a Roni.
This product has 21 ingredients. One of the many is a chemical called yellow 5. Yellow 5 has been PROVEN to cause: chronic migraines, clinical depression, fatigue, and OCD in children. Unfortunately, that is only 1 of 21 ingredients.
Lesson learned: The more organic/natural foods, the better!!

Does that mean that eating organic foods are better for you? Also does that mean that you should not eat out of boxes so much?
