Chronic Disease: Poison is not Partisan
The statistics don’t lie. Chronic disease is an epidemic in this country, and we need to understand why. Regardless of your political party, it’s time to talk about the real issues of our declining human health. Poison is not partisan. Our children and grandchildren are eating foods that is sprayed with poisons like glyphosate and other harmful chemicals. This has got to stop! Many of these pesticides are banned in other countries. Please sign the Petition to ban these chemicals below. We have the power to change this for the future of our families and loved ones. Please listen with an open mind and heart and learn what we can all do. In listening to this interview, critical thinking is essential. Food Integrity Now is non-partisan and focuses only on health and wellness issues. Again, poison is not partisan. We can change things but we need all hands on deck. We need you!
- 74% of Americans are overweight, and 50% have Type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes, marking a dramatic increase from 195,0 when only 1% had diabetes
- Ultraprocessed foods containing seed oils, additives, and artificial ingredients contribute significantly to poor metabolic health, including in children, who get 67% of calories from these sources
- Corporate influence shapes health policies and food choices, with industry funding research that downplays junk food’s harmful effects while promoting treatment over prevention
- Children’s health is declining rapidly, with autism rates jumping from 1 in 150 in 2000 to 1 in 30 today; ultraprocessed foods, pesticides, and hormone-disrupting chemicals are involved in worsening children’s health
- Simple daily habits like avoiding ultraprocessed foods, walking 7,000 steps, eating whole foods and reducing stress dramatically improve metabolic health and reduce disease risk
What you eat shapes your metabolic health more than almost anything else. Dr. Casey and Calley point the finger at ultraprocessed foods — like sugary cereals, fast food and packaged snacks. These aren’t just “processed” like jarred veggies; they’re loaded with seed oils, which contain linoleic acid, additives, and fake ingredients that interfere with your body.
Children are hit hard — 67% of their calories come from these foods. Dr. Casey says this floods your system with added sugar and unhealthy fats, leading to weight gain and insulin problems. Over time, it throws your metabolism out of whack. Meanwhile, whole foods — like fruits, veggies, eggs and grass fed meats — give you nutrients to keep your energy steady and your body strong. Want to boost your health? Try these tips:
•Eat more whole foods — Fill your plate with fresh foods — think colorful fruits and veggies, eggs and grass fed dairy.
•Cut back on refined sugar — Skip sodas, candies and high-fructose corn syrup. Use a little maple syrup or raw honey if you need sweetness.
•Check labels — If the ingredients list looks like a science experiment, put it back.
•Cook at home — Making your own meals lets you control what’s in them. Homemade meals are healthier and tastier too.
What can you do now? Signing the Petition below is a great step! Thank you!
