~~Good health is a process.~~
Good health is processed.
"Processed food" is something designed to be eaten, "organic food" is just some shit someone found in the dirt
Here's how useless the term "processed food" is when it come to health: Canned and frozen vegetables are considered a processed food.
There is a distinct difference in food science between processed food (anything that has been cut, or undergone any kind of process) and ultra-processed food (made of many different ingredients, many of which cannot be found in an ordinary kitchen, and undergone multiple processes). While the term is not perfect, it is still useful when talking in general terms.
The second you take a cut of meat and grind it into, well, ground meat, it is ‘processed’.
That's a really extreme take of that term. Normally, processed food means like, sugar cereal and biscuits; not frozen spinach pucks and tofu. Just because it's a loose fuzzy term instead of a formal scientific definition doesn't make it useless
Lol
I prefer sugar free artificial sweeteners, MADE BY MAN!
Most plants we eat today were cultivated for centuries to be more nutrient and calorie-dense than the original plant.
That is a good thing.
I agree. They are not just things we found in the dirt anymore.
I was on a train crossing the border and border patrol came on and asked everyone if they had fruits or veg.
This group ahead of me said "we don't eat that stuff" and then all four laughed. The sad punchline is that he thought he was so clever, but alli saw was 4 obese people not realizing how much they just said about themselves.
