Really, I did. But running a business all by yourself takes up a pretty good chunk of your time. So, sorry for not having the usual backing of solid scientific research behind this. You&#8217;re just going to have to trust me on what I say. <\/p>\n<p>So, processed foods. What are they? How prevalent are they? Are they really that bad for our health? <\/p>\n<p>These are all pretty good questions, huh? Well, I have 2 standpoints on the issue to be honest with you. One side of me says eliminate them! Get rid of &#8217;em! Go back to nature and eat foods the way they were intented to be eaten.<\/p>\n<p>Then there&#8217;s this other side of me saying, &#8220;Yeah, it&#8217;d be great if we could all eat non-processed foods. We&#8217;d certainly decrease the prevalence of chronic disease. Health care wouldn&#8217;t be such an issue. We&#8217;d live longer and healthier lives.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>And I completely belive that. 100%<\/p>\n<p>But it&#8217;s not reality. It&#8217;s not a truly feasible option at this point. I&#8217;m a realist. We just plain old flat out don&#8217;t eat like that. So how can we make this work!?<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s where you come in. I&#8217;m calling on you to tell me how YOU eat. I need to be able to identify where we are going wrong. So, I&#8217;m recommending each and every one of you to keep a food journal for 1 full week. Yep, even during the holiday season. Write down each and every thing that goes in your mouth. Send it to <a href=\"mailto:asmith@fgnutrition.com\">asmith@fgnutrition.com<\/a> and I&#8217;ll get back to you ASAP. <\/p>\n<p>Sam, sorry I didnt get to fully answer your request, but its coming.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I originally planned on doing some solid research prior to this post.
