Yeh right – you didn’t think I was serious did you? Well, once upon a time cigarettes and smoking were advertised as actually being good for your health and it wasn’t really that long ago! It was cool to smoke – all the movie stars and the beautiful people did it. Smoking was allowed everywhere – in planes, trains, taxis, movie theatres, offices, hospitals, shops – everywhere! There were a few ‘radical’ people who went against the grain and warned that smoking was actually bad for your health and that the advertisers and the tobacco companies were lying about tobacco, it’s safety and the implied health issues. That it was all about money and profits and the tobacco companies were lying through their teeth for the sake of money – but the people that were doing the warning – they were just weird radicals – right?

Hmmmm. We all know what the outcome was,  huh!

These days we have advertisements for junk with no nutritional value telling us it’s a healthy choice, and food manufacturers telling us that the chemicals they’re adding to the food that they’re selling and that we’re consuming are safe and healthy for us.

We also have companies making toothpaste, shampoos, deodorants and skin care products telling us the chemicals they use in their products are safe for us. Meanwhile, we have other experts and concerned citizens saying otherwise – weirdos, greenies and radicals right?

Wrong! I believe that one day in the not too distant future we will have the citizens of this planet unable to explain or fathom how such atrocities could be commited against the public by companies in their quest for profits. They will not understand how the blatant disregard for people and their health could be allowed by the powers that were in control at the time. It will be beyond their comprehension that the public did not see this for what it was for such a long time, until it became so obvious that something was wrong that answers had to be found. They will be unable to explain how foods and other products could be sold that contained such harmful chemicals that our cancer rates were getting to the point where almost every person would get cancer, fertility rates were dropping to extreme lows and the human race was basically in danger of extinction if things had carried on as they were.

Today we have cancer rates that are approaching the point where almost every person will get cancer in their lifetime. We have heart disease, diabetes, asthma, obesity, mental and behavioural disorders and much much more that are rampant. Why?

Too many toxins and not enough nutrition – simple.

In the next few posts I’m going to talk about what I believe to be the absolute worst foods on the planet, and they’re some of the most commonly consumed ones. Come back soon!
