The food you’re eating is causing your nerve system/spine to adapt!
Read that again.
Chemicals/toxins contribute to an inflammatory cascade that results in poor adaptive responses from your nerve system. It contributes to cardiac disease, cancer, diabetes, muscle and joint issues, inflammatory bowel disease and immune dysfunction including autoimmune issues!!
If you want to get healthier, avoid processed foods!!
The problem is, what’s processed?
Anything in a pouch, bag, can, etc. If you’re canning, that’s not what we’re talking about……unless you’re adding copious amounts of sugar or additives.
Check out this study!!!
“The European Society of Cardiology's May 2026 consensus reports adults with the highest UPF (ultraprocessed foods) intake have up to 65% higher cardiovascular death risk, 19% more heart disease, and 13% more atrial fibrillation vs the lowest. A 2024 Lancet Regional Health meta-analysis of 22 prospective studies found highest vs lowest UPF intake raised CVD risk 17% and coronary heart disease 23% -- quality of evidence rated high for CHD.
How UPFs hit the heart: poor nutrient profile, neo-formed compounds from processing (advanced glycation end-products, acrylamide, trans fats), and packaging contaminants (phthalates, bisphenols, microplastics) that enter the food.
Bottom line: processing itself is now a cardiac risk factor.”
