On the run up to Christmas we start to become aware of our wobbly bits! (and how they might increase!). I have marked up 8 food diaries this week, and one thing is striking: Much of the time ladies understandably THINK they are doing the right thing but don’t realise that food manufacturers are. 1. Clever, and 2.Taking us for a ride!
Britain is the second most obese nation on the planet and 31,000 deaths a year are obesity related.How has this happened?The reasons are multi dimensional, but one thing is clear: Food manufacturers are not in the business of helping to reverse the trend; they are in the game, solely, to make money. With their sugar laden/ lite rubbish you will gain body fat, not lose it I promise you. Look at some of the stuff the diaries revealed: Quorn battered fillet, ‘Skinny’ muffin, ‘Smart’ banoffee cereal bar, ‘Go ahead’ yoghurt bars, Activia yoghurts... the names imply health, the ingredients (scrutinise the labels guys & gals), tell a totally different story. It’s up to us to educate ourselves, get cynical and get a clean nutritional plan together. Alien ingredients (e-numbers, preservatives, colourings), are protectively stored in the body in adipose tissue (fat!). If you lose the chemicals, the body has less need to protect itself and you’ll start to lose the fat. Want to lose adress size (or more)? Abandon these foods and go clean and wholesome!
