A “toxic environment” of unhealthy, addictive food is behind today’s obesity epidemic, a new study says.

Mass-produced Western foods, because they’re low in fiber, sugary and fatty, cause hormonal imbalances that promote overeating, the scientist who authored the study claimed. These imbalances leave a person hungrier, less willing to exercise, and feeling less good overall.

The small cocktail (baby) carrots you buy in small plastic bags are made
using the larger crooked or deformed carrots which are put through a
machine which cuts and shapes them into cocktail carrots . most people
probably know this already.
What you may not know and should know is the following: once the carrots
are cut and shaped into cocktail carrots they are dipped in a solution of
water and chlorine in order to preserve them (this is the same chlorine
used in your pool) since they do not have their skin or natural protective
covering, they give them a higher dose of chlorine.
You will notice that once you keep these carrots in your refrigerator for
a few days, a white covering will form on the carrots, this is the
chlorine which resurfaces. At what cost do we put our health at risk to
have esthetically pleasing vegetables which are practically plastic?
We do hope that this information can be passed on to as many people as
possible in the hopes of informing them where these carrots come from and how they are processed. Chlorine is a very well known carcinogen.

If you have high blood pressure, do not consume this processed carrot since excess salt will affect your blood pressure. Organically grown vegetables are highly recommended.

Test your body's pH level using little pieces of pH paper that you place into your mouth. pH of 6.5-6.9 is acidic. This indicates that your eating/drinking habits is below normal. This is the illness zone.

PH of 7.1-7.4 is alklanine and it indicates that you are in the wellness zone.

Avoid eating processed foods, junk foods, sodas, coffee, trans fats, fried foods and stress which causes you to be acidic. Eat lots of fresh or steamed vegetables, fruits, whole grains. Achieving hydration, oxygenation, detox, alkaline pH are key steps to reach and stay in the wellness zone.
