SAY NO TO JUNK FOOD ; GOOD WISHES FOR YOUR HEALTH

Todays generation is more or less a junk food generation we can say. It is injurious for health we know all this thing. There are many things which we eat in our daily life due to unawareness of its side-effect. However we need a firm determination to remove the bad food habit we have so that we can lead a healthy and happy life.

What are Junk Foods?




  • Breads pastry, biscuits, breakfast cereals, polished (white) rice, potatoes and potato products, parsnips and pasta.




  • Intensive farmed meats and fish i.e. fed on grains and cereals to fatten them quickly instead of the natural food in nature. Smoked meats, sausages and practically any processed fish and meats.




  • Homogenised and pasteurised milk, cheeses, yoghurts and in fact any milk products. It is believed by many researchers that processed milk products can cause cancer and other problems. If you want these in your life then it is possible to obtain what is known as organic raw milk products. They are not perfect, but I believe they are much healthier than the processed types.




  • All Fruit Juices from shops are pasteurised and should be avoided. There is no such thing as fresh squeezed juice from a shop. Gasp... you mean they tell lies? Yes, they at least mislead you. Small amounts of juice that you have made fresh from the fruit are acceptable. It is much better to eat the full fruit.




  • Do not eat food that has been micro-waved or irradiated. Studies show that these foods reduce the life span of any animal (or human) eating them.




  • It is difficult to list every junk food, but basically anything that is processed in a factory and then repackaged in boxes, bottles, or cartons. Frozen fresh is 2nd best to fresh. Tinned is a poor 3rd because of the high temperatures they are subject to in preparation.
