"Real Food" consists of naturally grown produce and grass-fed, free-range meats raised at a local farm. These farms do not treat their crops with chemicals/pesticides or genetically alter their animals with growth hormones, antibiotics, any other types of drugs. "Big Business Food ", a term I created representing most of the meat and produce available in convenient, local supermarkets that are the result of factory farming, where animals and produce are created in mass amounts and the integrity of your food is greatly compromised for purposes of mass consumption and a myriad of other processed food items that are packaged and readily available to you on the shelves of your local supermarkets at anytime....chock full of preservatives and lots of other addictive, unnatural and fat-ridden ingredients that can only contribute to poor health.
When I started doing research on this topic, I couldn't stop thinking about all the health implications our nation is exposed to by ingesting anything but Real Food. The Big Business Food has taken over most of America over the last few decades and our Country's rate of overweight/obese children and adults is growing rapidly and so is the rate of poor health issues including high blood pressure, heart disease and diabetes to name a few....all because people have been over-exposed with Big Business Food marketing and don't even recognize Real Food anymore. While all of this is happening, the pockets of the Big Business Food folks keeps getting fatter (no pun intended) and our nation keeps getting sicker and sicker.
To bring things into perspective, think about this. During prehistoric times, people hunted their food and lived off the land...in its natural form. Your Grandmother's Grandmother ate Real Food back in the day before supermarkets and the Big Business Food came into existence. They didn't purchase their food from a supermarket that was overstocked with processed food, containing addictive ingredients they could not pronounce that our FDA approves and over-marketed with messages to have them running back for more.......they went to a local farm, plain and simple!.
What can you do to make a difference?
- Get educated and take an interest in the wealth of Real Food there is available to you.
- Support local farms and/or join a food-coop to have access to fresh, untainted produce.
- Purchase only meats from animals that are grass-fed and free-range and do some research.
- Remove products from your diet that contain ingredients you can't pronounce.
- Eat as much food in its natural form as possible.
- Ask your Grandparents what they ate growing up, collect some recipes.
- Express your interest in having Real Food available in schools for your children.
- Share your interest and knowledge with others.
If you haven't tried Real Food yet, experiment with some fruits, veggies and meats. Do taste tests and compare....there really is no comparison. Real Food is so much sweeter, fresher and better-tasting hands down....and you will be amazed at the difference it will make for your health!
