Toxic Chemicals In Food: Your Number 1 Weight Loss Enemy
by: Ben Kong
Although most people logically acknowledge that chemicals in food are
bad for them they do not really understand the full implications
especially its direct connections to the metabolism and storage of
excess body fat.
Firstly, the more chemicals that a person consumes from their food,
the harder the liver must work to metabolize and flush out all of the
toxins from the body. What does this have to do with fat loss? The
liver is the body's number one fat burning organ and its health and
function is closely related to how lean your physique will be. The more
time it spends processing chemicals (including alcohol), the less it
has to properly regulate your metabolism, burn fat and keep you looking
lean and toned.
Here's some statistics to clearly put you in the picture: |
The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) currently lists about 2800
international food additives and about 3000 chemicals added
deliberately to the food supply. Including chemicals used in food
production from ground to stomach, the number rises to between 10,000
and 15,000. William Kellas and Andrea Dworkin -Surviving in a toxic
world There are currently over 100,000 chemicals approved for use in
Europe alone with over 8000 more added each year. The Danish
Environmental Authority entered all that was known about 40,000
chemicals into a database and concluded: " 20,624 to be dangerous, of
this number 9,538 acutely dangerous when consumed. " A further 9,668
incur allergic reactions. " 1678 are mutagenic. " 642 incur cancer.
Another massive problem with processed foods is that almost all of
them contain refined white sugar. This can be in several forms such as
sugar, sucrose, corn syrup etc but the bottom line is that all are
highly detrimental to your health and achieving the body you deserve.
This section is quite detailed but it's important that you know the
TRUTH about how white sugar just totally destroys your ability to get
lean and muscular and with this knowledge 'eating clean' becomes a
powerfully sane choice. The following information comes from 'Sugar
Blues' by William Duffy. Why is sugar toxic to the body? In 1957 Dr
William Coda Martin tried to answer the question: When is a food a food
and when is it a poison? His working definition of "poison" was:
"Medically: Any substance applied to the body, ingested or developed
within the body, which causes or may cause disease. Dr Martin
classified refined sugar as a POISON because it has been depleted of
its life forces, vitamins and minerals.
This is why the KEY principle above all else in your eating plan
will be to eat only natural, unprocessed (and organic whenever
possible) foods. Reducing the chemical build-up and intake will get
your liver burning fat and speed up your metabolism so you are a better
fat burning machine 24/7.
Obviously with the amounts of chemicals most people typically
consume from the foods they generally eat, the liver cannot process
them all so they become stored in the body until they can be processed.
If the chemical barrage would stop these 'chemical stockpiles' would
get around to being processed but unfortunately since there are more
chemicals taken in every day, the stockpiles get larger and larger.
Also many of these chemicals cause an acidity in the body that needs to
be neutralized lest it literally burn and damage cells and tissue
including your hard earned muscle that you spend hours in the gym
developing.
