UPFs

GF already has me onto this big time. Yet WHO/WEF/Gates etc want to take us further down the UPF road!!

Ultra processed food - which is killing us slowly.

In summary, the science shows that we should not even be calling them “foods” but instead their proper description of “man-made edible substances.”

Our bodies can tell we are not consuming real food and the affect is immediate and measurable and life-threatening.

And no it’s not about doing more exercise - that has virtually zero impact on weight - it’s all about what we put in our mouths.

We should be teaching this to our kids in schools instead of one-sided versions of history.

We've had a hatched, dispatched and Matched month so a few bevvies have been going down not to mention a shed load of tasty catering etc. Someone during a beverage session, D1 I think, said she was going to lose some weight, boyfriend said he wanted to as well, the Wa was in so it got a bit 'I'll do better than you etc'. As the trek through Central America was waistline nasty plus the rest lately I though 10kg less of me is 10kg more of fuel in the wings, OK I'm in as well. First to drop, in my case 13kg, wins.

So I'm running the 8/16 hour fasting thing. 8 hour window to eat in then nothing for 16. In my window I'm trying to eat clean i.e minimal modification. So I'm learning what the labels say around nutrition and so on.

HOLY FUCK is there some crap in our foods so I know exactly where Fogg is coming from. I've always tend to prefer fresh anyway so it's not a huge change in diet but a huge change in when I'm eating. Also now learning about our foods it's fecking scary what shit we can buy in our foods and how processed many are, it's really not good and has to be fucking us up.

As a FYI, I told the competition on yesterdays weigh in if I win I plan to become totally insufferable and make reformed smokers look tame so they better pull finger. I started at 13.8 2 weeks ago down to 7.1 yesterday, so pretty happy and winning.

I tried IM (intermittent fasting) whereby I ate my first meal as a late lunch and then dinner and that’s it. In other words about 18:6.

I found my lunchtime hunger gradually diminished and if I was busy I would forget to eat lunch at all. In other words I was firmly in ketosis and running on fat not sugar. And not hungry at all. Even at dinner time I only feel hungry through a combination of the clock telling me it’s eating time plus the smell of a meal (I cook dinner 6 days / week).

As a result I gave up lunch and drifted into OMAD (one meal a day). Only thing, I lose too much weight if I literally only eat dinner so I have to force myself to eat a 3-4pm snack (usually some fruit, nuts and some of the raw veg I’m prepping for dinner eg carrots or broccoli with humus).

And 90% of that we eat is homemade with a war on UPFs.

Whenever I hear contradictory advice I revert to “How did we live a few hundred years ago before the arrival of easy, civilised, processed lifestyles that our bodies haven’t adapted to yet?”

And this told me we are well adapted to eating far more sparingly and probably lucky to get one good meal a day if the family / tribe’s hunting & gathering went well that day.

This looks a bit ominous, that one source of truth thing just keeps popping up.

Pretty sure UPF's are going seem like the best thing since sliced bread.

and speaking of Big Pharma, if they get their way they have not finished with us by a long shot

Huge Threat to Traditional Farming

Note how ACT and National slip in references to the environment, inferring that GE is going to save us all from the unfounded terror of global boiling.

Using expressions like "global boiling" is alarmist hype, intended to frighten the masses into meekly accepting dangerous and unpalatable food production technologies, and all kinds of restrictions on their freedoms such as the WEF's15 minute cities - a Trojan Horse for control.

So, farmers, if the globalists have their way, you'll be injecting every sheep and lamb with their mRNA drugs, along with a microchip to track each animal, and you'll be fined or unable to sell your produce if you don't inject them — that's the future of farming for you, or you'll be forced into a firesale and your land hoovered up by the globalists who made billions from the pandemic.

Or, you may survive by farming insects on small plots, and the hill-sides will be carpeted with commercial pine forests to produce all of the toilet paper needed to meet the demand caused by widespread diarrhoea from living on a diet of cricket flour and GE soy.

There really seems to be a plan to make us completely dependent upon the Big Corporations and to hell with the effects on your health.
I remember in decades long gone the government promoting healthier living on exercise and diet, eg who remembers the 5 a day 2 fruit 3 veg campaign.

I think in the near future there might need to be a few sheep grazing my property eventually destined for the freezer (and some to swap with GO30 for a part of one of his beasts) along with upping the ante big time on the vege garden - the latter not currently integrating very well with summer cruising

Yes they have. UPFs we’re ‘born’ by the food industry answering a need to more cheap convenience foods as post-war families changed their lifestyles and technology meant previously house-bound wife’s were liberated to go out and work - meaning families needed quick & easy meals each night. Ideally to throw into that newfangled device the Devil’s Tumble-dryer aka microwave.

And the food industry worked out they could create pretty much any taste, texture and shape by breaking down and reconstituting the cheapest waste off-cuts from 4 proteins (chicken, beef, lamb & pork) and plants (wheat, soy, corn and rice). And re-combining them with a bunch of binding agents, colourings, flavourings, stabilisers and preservatives. With nice shiny labels to disguise the alarming ingredients list.

And hey presto the first man-made edible substances were born and heavily marketed as easy, cheap & healthy family foods.

The fact that the these substances were allowed to be called ‘food’ is one of the greatest marketing scams of all times. And the food industry continues to perpetuate this myth. They could teach Big Tobacco a trick or two.
