Here's some help on eating "clean"... I'll add a list of foods you CAN eat later.
Some shocking things "THEY" don't want you to know...
HFCS ( High Fructose Corn Syrup ) is a "super sugar" that can be found 3/4 of the packaged items found at the market. It's biggest hideout is "Fat-Free" items and near all baked goods. While fructose can naturally be broken down by the body in moderation, high fructose corn syrup cannot. It's a manufactured form of fructose that was designed to save food company's money because of it's extremely low cost. Problem is, it's the easiest sugar for our body to convert into fat.... and it's in almost EVERYTHING!
Here's how to cut it out of your diet. READ LABELS! Look for organic foods/breads/cereals that do not contain HFCS. Usually organic brands will replace the HFCS with honey or regular sugar that your body can break down and use for energy. Simply think natural... If it's not a fresh food, don't eat it. If it comes in a package or bag... don't eat it. EAT FRESH FOOD! Buy lot's of meats, vegies, dairy products, etc... The food manufactures are the enemy.... they are not looking out for your health. They choose products such as HFCS and tran's fat's to save money, preserve shelf life, and artificially improve taste.
Now onto TRAN'S FAT'S.... this stuff is by far the most evil thing invented.
There are four kinds of fats: monounsaturated fat, polyunsaturated fat, saturated fat, and trans fat. Monounsaturated fat and polyunsaturated fat are the "good" fats. There is a conflict of opinion about saturated fat, but the majority opinion is that consumption of saturated fat should be kept low. Trans fat from partially hydrogenated vegetable oils is very bad, much worse than saturated fat.
Basically, tran's fat's are another manufactured evil from the food industry to save costs and improve shelf life... Problem is, it's reducing human life! They literally take regular fat's and TRANSform them into Tran's fats. A good example would be Oil to Crisco. With the fat transformed, it can now be added into all kinds of foods to "lock flavor in". Making foods taste buttery and delicious no matter how long they have been on the shelf. Regular fats would grease up manufactures packaging in a matter of weeks from just natural separation. Tran's fats do not separate. How do you stay away from them? Well... once again look for organic foods, or prepare fresh food yourself. Sure, it might be harder this way, and your foods may spoil faster, but your doing this for good health. If you wanted convenience... you'd look like every other overweight American.
Simply put....
STAY AWAY from anything that says... High Fructose Corn Syrup , partially hydrogenated, or shortening.
These products are basically a reverse lypo-suction.
