I know you guys miss my crazy side and I will change up the topics & my delivery style soon but before I do I gotta tell you about this one.
If you have been reading my blog then you know that There is no doubt that High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is bad. It is directly linked to metabolic syndrome and obesity.
Without me putting any more links you should already know that There are tons and tons of scientific data to prove that HFCS is no good.
Medical journals have written reports about the research that was done on HFCS. Dietitians and MDs have come out into the media speaking about the evils of HFCS on the body. And if you search the web, you find countless articles that discuss the unhealthy nature of HFCS.
The bottom line is…HFCS is no freakin good because it’s in everything and we eat too much of it. I’ve been eating HFCS for about 35 years…and thats why I have a big belly.
Do you agree with what I just said? HFCS aint no good…right? Ok
Now look at this…
Prevention magazine …those scum bags who are supposed to be in the business of spreading ideas to women about health wrote an article telling their readers that there nothing wrong with HFCS!
HUH? YEAH…
They wrote an article entitled:
High Fructose Corn Syrup
An ad campaign attempts to give this sweetener a makeover. We have the full story.
And what they did was they skillfully defended HFCS in slick kinda way. They gave a little bit of the bad then they defended the bad by saying well..yadaada, we cant conclusively say its bad.
Read some of what they said:
In the grand tradition of nutritional scapegoating, high fructose corn syrup has stepped into the spotlight as diet enemy number one. It’s an easy target.
But not everyone is convinced. Last June, the Corn Refiners Association launched an ad campaign telling the other side of the story–namely, that high fructose corn syrup is “made from corn [and] has the same calories as sugar.”
The mixed messages have left consumers looking for answers. Prevention investigated–and found little conclusive evidence to confirm the anti-high fructose corn syrup crusade.
They investigated HFCS and found little evidence about it being bad!!! R U Effing kidding me!!!
The science about the ills of HFCS have already been identified and defined by scientists that specialize in endocrinology and you can find out about what the science is by watching the video below:
This is a MUST WATCH VIDEO
HFCS aint no good …please…and it worst than sugar.
Prevention go F ya self because you a lie.
You are actually telling women that HFCS is ok in the face of a national obesity epidemic but you are a womens health magazine…REALLY!
If you own a women’s health magazine then you should make a firm stand so that people can follow your direction. Dont be fake. Dont send mixed messages and then have the audacity to blame others in the industry for sending mixed messages.
Prevention magazine you disgust me…HFCS is good…you should burn in hell for saying that!!! You greedy and wicked people.
Now do understand why I am so radical?
I gotta be because if I don’t be this way then too much of my people will be fooled because scumbags like Prevention magazine and many other people in the industry of “health” cannot be trusted because they like to spread lies in the media in order to protect their money.
Health and food ideas are not supposed to be primary attached to making profit…MY GOD but it is.
Most people in the business of health don’t really give a shit about you . They just go into health business because the health business is a very profitable money making thing.
Its sad but the bottom is the bottom line.
The owners and writers of Prevention magazine are very educated and if an average person like me knows that HFCS aint no good then I know that they know it aint no good too.
But they will tell you lies because they don’t care about you but I think that when it comes to health ideas especially during epidemic times that the truth should come above the profit
Prevention magazine is in the business of promoting their 400 calorie meal plans and those meal plans are filled with recipes that require the use of a whole bunch of different types of processed diet foods.
Also Prevention makes money by selling advertising space from people who sell foods like “diet ice cream” and frozen diet meals and diet cookies and stuff that have HFCS in it, so they can’t say that HFCS is bad even though that’s the truth because if they say its bad then they will be hurting their own business and they cant do that.
So this is the proof. You cannot trust them.
A lot of health businesses in America will lie like dogs to protect their way of making money and FDA will back them up.
That means that you you gotta get radical. You gotta become a very educated consumer when it comes to buying foods and approaching your health regimen and reading ideas about health.
My advice is to use Google as much as you can.
Read more, follow the links that you see on blogs and use your common sense because if sit back and think that the people in better position will do better to help inform you then you are making a big mistake.
Natural News has one of the best health websites on the entire web it is way better than mine. You should be Reading blogs like that whenever you get a chance and then whenever you have questions about what you read, ask a health professional. but when you ask questions be very specific…their response to your specific questions, will help you to determine if they know what they are talking about.
]]>You wanna know why I blog. I think its my job to put out ideas that will help Black people but the truth is that I do this Because I am mad. As hell.
I am not mad at the “system”…I am mad at my own friends and family and all Black people like them.
The people that I live around are very handicap.
They are a bunch of seemly talented people, full of potential but yet despite all the information out there, they just can’t seem to get it together.
He can play guitar but don’t want to got to lesson
She can cook her ass off, she wants to start a business but she is too lazy to make her own damn flyers after I gave her a computer.
So what the F*ck do you want to do?
All she wants to do is go to the club to find a new man, me use her and then complains men aint no good and wonders why she cant find happiness.
HUH?
There is a whole bunch of bullshit that I have to deal with everyday and nobody seems to really care.
Black people seem to have to most problems.
WTF!!! Do something different then. Try something new. think differently. Fight harder. Stop thinking like your MOM.
Your MoM aint as smart as you. She had to raise you while living under a lot stress so you gotta Be progressive than her.
My friends and family cant seem to progress, they cant to achieve more than what their parents did.
And I know that a lot Black people are like that.
Sometimes I feel like I am the only one in my community that cares about anything. I care about my health and they don’t.
I care about getting more education and they don’t.
They only say that they do.
Oh…they got good talk and they talk a lot of bullshit but they don’t try really care because their actions don’t match.
And on top of that they eat a lot of processed fake foods that don’t help them to produce the hormones that they need to have a greater sense of well being.
So we all effed up.
That’s why I blog. I need people to hear me because I am in pain.
]]>I know that is easy to forget what life is really about because nobody seems to care about God anymore.
The church has let us down in many ways and we are also always bombarded with images that reflect negative aspects of life.
But the God living inside of you can overcome anything.
It can even overcome complete darkness and chaos; so you cant use the times that we live in as an excuse to give up on your ideals and I want to remind you that life is about striving for better, its about flourishing and trying to reach the max potential of who you are.
The pursuit of happiness is a basic human, civil and American right. You have to protect it and you must demand that the government protect it as well.
Transcendence into self actualization is what we all live for.
But if you don’t guard and protect that right to self actualize and be happy then other people will take your talents by watching you, then they will self actualize and then they will laugh at you because you lost what they got and then they will they will dehumanize you and call you ignorant and stupid because you haven’t reaped the benefits of self actualization.
Access to healthy foods is an important part of what you need to keep your dignity and social status. You need access to healthy foods to self actualize and Don’t let anybody fool you either because A nation is nothing if the women in it are not healthy, confident and sexy.
The foods you eat will play a big factor in your social status and ability to transform yourself from a caterpillar to a butterfly.
So the evidence is clear. Now we have reached a point in society where understand what we need to self actualize, it is our duty to fight for our right to get better and easier access to healthy foods.
Every generation has cross to bear.
We have the health “cross” and if we ignore our duty to protect the health cross then it will negatively affect the upcoming generation and then as a whole the nation of Black American people regardless of their values will lose more prestige and respect in the world.
All Black people look like Precious and they think they are so freakin cute with all this plus sized modeling..please..sit your fat ass down.
That’s what people will start to say and then After that phase in society, black people will start to dislike themselves even more.
In general don’t you notice that Black people always complain about the fact that “we are not together “ but I say that we are not together because we don’t have the basic things that we need to strive as individuals first.
If you don’t have what you need (like good food) so that you can develop a high sense self worth and self esteem for your personal life then you won’t care about organizing with other people of your skin color.
We don’t organize because there isn’t enough Black women out there with a high sense of self worth. Women of high self worth are industrious people and therefore they link up with their friends to achieve certain social goals because they don’t got nobody else they can use who they trust.
That’s how organization really starts. It starts from a high value of self worth many individuals in a community.
The Black American diet is very unhealthy and it is affecting our pride and self worth because it makes us look ugly.
But Black Americans are not unhealthy by personal choice, thats just propaganda, we got unhealthy because many of us come from a family that got is start in America living at the bottom of the socio economic ladder and because of that we had to grow up culturally living off of poor low quality and unhealthy foods.
Now we can do better and no we understand that These foods have negatively affected our mind, bodies and soul.
So what I am saying is that based on what we know now, we should start to demand that the government make sure that we and our children have access to healthy foods because unhealthiness is killing the Black nation.
But the thing is, the fact that we don’t have easy access to good healthy foods is a problem that nobody is going to care about unless we make it an issue to be cared about.
Remember back in the day when nobody really used to care about insulting gays. Now we respect gay and now we are very mindful about what we say about gay in public.right?
You why that is?
Because gay people cared enough to fight for what they believe in. They wanted dignity and self respect from their fellow man, they made it an issue, they fought for it and now they got it.
The tactics that the gay community used was alot of petitioning and letter writing.
That’s what we gotta start doing.We gotta spread ideas and take social action.
Nobody is going to care about that issue of Black American health except for us and we should not expect other people to care Because that is our job.
Caring about a health issue and using our energy to make government pay attention and respect our needs regarding our health issue by enacting laws, is the very definition of what it means to be an American and if you don’t do things like what I am suggesting to you now then you are not doing your part for the betterment of your society.. and if you don’t do your part then why should governmental agencies and other cultures respect you?
The entire purpose of life while living in America is to make sure that you compete to get what you and your family needs to live the best life.
That whole goal of life is becoming better and striving for the best.
So don’t be too mad at the FDA because it’s a natural thing for them to care about themselves more than they care about you.
You gotta care enough to fight for what you want, that is the life of being an American.
I love being an American, how bout you?
]]>Plus sized beauty is on the rise.
Big girls are starting to be on a lot of magazine covers and I cant believe it…even the fashion god known as Vogue had 3 “big” girls on their magazine cover just the other day.
The editors at V magazine are making a big push to demo the beauty of larger sized women to the American public.
So Like I said, Plus sized beauty is on the rise and eventually like everything else…the fever will take root in Black world.
Now I want to ask you something…do you think is it a coincidence that both obesity rate and plus size modeling trends are both on the rise?
No…plus sized fashion is obvious good business.
Deductive reasoning tells me that
it aint no coincidence
and that makes me scared.
I am scared because I fear that the root cause of obesity will be left unexposed and unsolved if obesity or plus sized beauty begins to be overtly glamorized and become part of big business bottom line goals.
Here is what will happen:
Big women will stop caring because while people like me and you are trying to solve and educate people about the issue of obesity and how to lose weight, the fashion media will be turning the obesity issue into a ” pretty”, money making thing and because they will make big women feel “pretty” plus sized fashion peddlers will get a lot support and as a result ideas about losing weight may start to be stifled.
A growth in plus sized acceptance will appeal to the ego of big women. Soon it will be very OK to be obese and then nobody aint gonna want to change.
Now don’t get me wrong…
I like seeing women like me being represented in the media because it promotes self pride.
Self pride, self esteem and self acceptance are needed ingredients in order for women to find happiness because If you don’t love yourself then you won’t care enough to do things to better yourself.
I am personally aware of all of that…
And yes we do need more positive imagery of plus sized women in the media but at the same time, I am afraid that eventually the positive imagery will transform into something corrupt and then the over glamorization of obesity will further keep people in the dark from the key issues at hand.
The key issues in obesity are far as I see…is this:
There too much low quality, junk foods made with unhealthy ingredients to be found in America.
Basically, America is an unsafe place to eat.
Our food is over laden with much corn syrup, fake additives, hydrogenated oils, and fiber less carbohydrates.
We are a nation filled with busy hard working people and yes we need easy access to food but fast foods can be made with wholesome ingredients.
The madness has to stop.
We need change because the foods now are disrupting the natural processes/wisdom of the body and they are interfering with the hormonal process designed to keep our weight in balance.
Furthermore poor people & black people are the ones suffering the most from our current food problem.
Lets put on our thinking caps.
Life is a struggle right, everybody have to fight hard to create their happiness and poor people will have to fight even harder to find happiness …isnt that true?
OK, So if this is true then poor people need help and at the very least the FDA whose job it is to “protect citizens from products that are inherently unsafe” should see to it that poor people have a fighting chance at making it in life by making sure that the food that are available to them will keep them healthy.
Good health is synonymous with a high quality of life. Good health & a good education gives poor people the best fighting chance to make it out of poverty.
Because you can be educated but if you are also emotionally disturbed then you still wont make it….so therefore good health is a basic human need in the process of trying to make a good life.
Obesity makes people unhealthy and it is a preventable health risk factor and it must be managed—the FDA is supposed to care about this issue because obesity rates especially in the Black community are through the roof and obesity can negatively affect all aspects of a persons life.
Obesity isn’t just a biological problem that affects individual physical health.
Obesity affects emotional health and it affects relationships too.
Obesity will affect self esteem. Obesity affects image of self. Obesity will affect the very make up of family dynamics.
If a poor women is obese and on top of that she cant get access to basic wholesome healthy foods to feed herself and family and on top of that she also has to deal with the stresses of being poor in America…what do you think her life and her children will be like?
Hell and Bebes kids right?
Bebes kids grow up to go on welfare, they sell drugs ,they get all effed up, they don’t run the world..Obama aint no Bebes kid.
So please don’t forget about the key issues at hand because now we fat girls get to show off and we can now get more play from men and stuff.
Lets stay focused. We want more black kids to have a fighting chance. And the way will do it is by spreading ideas that will help make sure the black moms know how to be healthy.
We cant forget everything because now its OK to be fat.
Don’t let mainstream media appeal to your vanity and turn you into an idiot. You already know how wicked they can be.
The mainstream media in America is organized by a greedy set of people.
They like to and know how to use emotional marketing and the glamorization of social ills in order to capitalize on people like me and you.
Next thing you know they will be saying, “Fat Is The New Black” and then they will create a reality show filled with big, loud mouth fat girls that know how to dress sexy so that the idea of “fat being the new black” takes root and then voila most everybody will forget the wicked & original causes of obesity, things will be left unchanged and disgusting foods like High fructose Corn syrup will still be on sale.
Cmon please don’t let this continue to happen.
Start caring and then take small action towards making this problem better…you can start by making poignant posts on your Facebook wall…what? I am I the only one that gives a f*ck?
]]>You know what they say about the Chinese Food right?
People say that when they eat Chinese food that they don’t feel full or satisfied.
Why is that?
I used to think the reason I didn’t feel satisfied/full had to do with the fact that I am just a greedy muthfucka but today I am happy to say its not my fault or yours.
Its the ingredients in Chinese foods and the fact that most of the foods are low in fiber. Thats!… the reason….Thats the thing that makes us continue to feel hungry.
I explained this process to you before but I want you to see how it happens in real life so lets analyze Chinese food.
Chinese food is made with a lot of sweet high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) based sauces, MSG and most of the carbs like the white rice, the noodles and the fried whateva dont have fiber in it.
Chinese food is also very high in fat because most of the food is fried and what learned about foods that are made in the Chinese food type of way is that they will play tricks on the brain and program you to feel hungry.
The combination of HFCS, salt and fat are very addictive and they they will keep you in a state of feeling hungry even if your stomach physically full.
I am telling you the truth…because that is what Dr Kessler said in his book called “The End of Overeating
“. Dr Kessler used to run the FDA just a few years ago and he knows all about the foods in America and how they work on the body and he also wrote in his book that most of foods found in American culture has hijacked out brains and they have programmed us to be greedy and the program that is used to make use greedy starts off with an intense combination of sugar, fat and salt.
Chinese food is full of sugar, fat and salt.
Especially the sauces and the corn syrup part of the meal, let me show you what I am taking about again. Lets look at the science.
Normally, our appetite is governed by a finely tuned hormonal system that drives us to eat just enough to meet our metabolic needs.
Ghrelin, secreted by the stomach, tells us we are hungry, while leptin signals our brain to tell us we are full.
The problem is that when HFCS (high fructose corn syrup ) is consumed, it does not shut off ghrelin, so we continue to feel hungry.
In addition, the leptin signal is not triggered, so we don’t feel full.
This drives overeating and contributes to obesity.
The excessive consumption of HFCS may be a main contributor to the incidence of diabetes in the US.
Now Do You See?
Because of the ingredients used in Chinese food you wont feel full after you eat it and because you wont feel full and you want to lose weight then Chinese food is something that you should recognize as being your enemy.
Your enemy must die…But we will have to work together in order to fight the enemy because…
Cheap Chinese food is everywhere and it also has a dominant place in the black community and when you combine that fact, with the fact that “we –meaning a lot of black people” also get a lot of our food from corner stores and bodegas — who are in business just to sell you cheap & unhealthy crap then its no wonder why “we” are the fattest group of women in comparison to other women living in the USA.
Bottom line…There is too much freakin junk foods to be found in our communities and it time for that bullshit to stop. We work gotta work together, we gotta petition and we gotta demand quality from the people who responsible for giving us access to food because if we dont…then this will be the result:
America will become A nation filled to the brim with tons of Unhappy Black women who don’t feel good or look good & Generation after generation….our children will be nurtured by unhappy women with low self esteem…
We will become a loser and a garbage nation of people and it would be like what… Massa said about us was right…
About four out of five African American women are overweight or obese.
In 2009, African Americans were 1.5 times as likely to be obese as Non- Hispanic Whites.
In 2009, African American women were 60% more likely to be obese than Non-Hispanic White women.
In 2007-2008, African American children were 30% as likely to be overweight than Non-Hispanic Whites.
F*CK CHINESE FOOD!!!
]]>I know that I am very passionate about the obesity subject and I am always expressing how mad I am at the food culture in America and how much I hate the griminess of the FDA but I was playing devils advocate today with myself..YEAH!!!
And I was talking to myself out loud… in the street..wondering why?
Why I am I making such a big deal? Is being fat such a crime?
Everybody got to be skinny? What? Is it about being perfect?
So what…so what to the fact that we like eating McDonalds and we like drinking soda.
We all gone die…so…so what?
Well I got the answer and it has to do with finally becoming happy.
Let me ask you something…if you was dumb all your life like me…and you made a lot of mistakes like me and those mistakes took away your chances at feeling truly happy because it caused pain and then at around the age of 35-40 years old, you finally just began to know who you are, you finally learned how to manuevr yourself in this world and you finally started learning how to get happiness out of life and then in the middle of all of that you die — wouldn’t that be fucked up?
We need longevity and God intended for us to have longevity because he knows that life is hard.
Let me ask you something.
Are you where you want to be? Did you fulfill any of your big dreams? Are you in love right now? Are you confident? Do you trust your friends like they are some ride or die muthafukas? or are they talking about you behind your back?
How happy are you? Did you reach your potential yet? You need time to reach your potential right? because its hard work right?
OK
But if you a fat, sick muthafuka then guess what? your time gaawn soon run out.
do you think thats what God wanted?
God expected you to live long but the people who sell all those processed foods…they dont give a fuck.
They are the ones who are taking away your time and taking away your ability to finally learning what it really takes to be happy.
So what you talking bout?
They are not supposed to get away with getting people addicted to foods that kill. They are not supposed to get away with creating foods that rewire your brain so that the built in wisdom of your body is usurped.
Naw that wrong…who are they to take away our chances of living our greatest life?
Obama should tax… dem…and use some of that money to fix the debt ceiling.
Tell me what you think about this one.
]]>I went to Panera Bread the other day and I was completely bedazzled into buying a fatty sugary snack…I brought the add on brownine for 99cents when I knew that I shouldn’t of done it.
I got mad at myself for buying it too but i still ate it…of course.
Eating the brownie put me into guilt based stress mode.
And since I also have schizophrenic genes, sometimes when I am under stress I hear voices 
so after I ate the brownie a little voice in my head said:
“you know damn well that you are not supposed to be falling for the 99 cents trick”
and then an epiphany occurred and I learned something.
AHAHAA
My way of eating junk-food is a habit in me that is constantly being reinforced by the sellers of food.
I never used to pay much attention to it but the the dollar menu and the buy a cake for 99 cents are very powerful obesity enforcers.
Easy access to cheap $1 unhealthy foods is our cultures way of making sure that we stay wired to eat junk that they sell. Cheap and sweet helps to maintain the habit of greediness.
Its like if the sellers of our food dont want you to get too health conscience so therefore they always put temptation in your face…
99 cent brownies muthafuka…eat it…cuz .. you gone stay fat….you gone stay wanting to eat me.
Do you see what I am saying?
They already know that these junk foods will trigger your brain to make you want to eat even if you are full and even though they know that …They still make it very easy for you to get access to these foods.
They make it cheap and they make it sweet.and fatty too.
Its easy to spend a $1 when you are at the point of purchase.
But don;t get it twisted…You spending that $1 is not about them making money in terms of that one isolated sale…
Naw…rather its about keeping you programmed to eat foods that you already know in your heart are no good for you…and they do $1 thing so that they can continue to make money by making junk food a culturally accepted way of American eating.
Behind the scenes Panera Bread and all these food chains are execs that go to seminars so that they can learn how to make you into a food addict but the seminars are not labeled in that way of course.
If Panera Bread was selling the pastry for $5 then I would have thought twice and I probably would not have brought it.
Ideally sweets/pastries are supposed to be expensive because it supposed to be a treat or delicacy that we indulge in from time to time.
Desserts are supposed to be made with good, expensive wholesome ingredients, they take long to make and we only eat them on special occasions.
You know like when Grandma makes a special homemade apple pie, with homemade ice-cream but the greed of food corps have adulterated that way of living and we are the “payin the cake for it”.
Black women have the highest rate of obesity in the United States of America.
I blame a combination of poverty and stress and the need for cheap foods
Bogedas and the widespread easy access to hyperpalatable foods which are addictive and the social acceptance of eating junk.
This is whats going on in America in the black world when it comes to food and that is why you must be conscience and you fight to demand that America makes it easy for people to get access to wholesome foods because it is destroying us…its destroying me..I tell you that
The system that we have right now in American in terms of food “CHEAP” is a very big part of why junk food dominant and that’s why its so powerful.
]]>I am so sorry that I keep giving you sad news about food but i gotta tell ya something bad about…potato chips. Potato chips is killa.
I am not talking about because its fried or because its made with hydrogenated oils or because it has a high glycemic index number.
No…this news is even more worst than that because….guess what?
Potato chips have a deadly cancer causing chemical in it called acrylamide.
Acrylamide also occurs in many cooked starchy foods and is of concern as a possible carcinogen.[2] Acrylamide was accidentally discovered in foods in April 2002 by scientists in Sweden when they found the chemical in starchy foods, such as potato chips, French fries, and bread that had been heated (production of acrylamide in the heating process was shown to be temperature-dependent).[2] It was not found in food that had been boiled[2][3] or in foods that were not heated.[2]
Researchers at the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition also say that foods like potato chips which have a lot acrylamide in it will increase your risk of getting heart disease.
Don’t believe me? Look at the article…I got this news at a science research website.
The evidence is clear ladies. There is a lot of evil and corrupt shit going on in the food industry within the United States of America.
The FDA don’t give a fuck & they have given the food giants or the ones responsible for giving us access to food on a grand scale…carte blanche, those muthafuckas can sell us whatever they want and get away with it. They are making a lot money and we sick & fat and then our men go out to get themself a Becky..that aint right…is it?
To make America a safe place to eat so that all people can have good chances at really losing weight we will probably have to treat the problem like how we treated the issue of Civil Rights because we will have to fight to win over a very corrupt Federal agency in order to make America a place where people can have easy access to wholesome nutritious foods.
But these are just my thoughts…what do you think?
]]>You know how wicked the system can be right?
Now guess what?
The powers at be are trying to make it seem as though high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is something good.
Those stinking dogs are using propaganda and half truth to make a claims that HFCS is the same as natural sugar and get this they are even!!!trying to get permission from the FDA to legally change the name of high fructose corn syrup to corn sugar so that people are completely fooled about what it really is!!!
The gaul…that these people have is totally unreal…and they are very convincing too.
The claims that “they” are making abour HFCS being good seems to have scientific validity but…some basic truths are missing from their claims so therefore logic dictates that their entire claims has to be deemed false.
The fructose found in HFCS is not the same thing as the fructose you get in natural fresh fruits.
HFCS is an artificial invention.
Yes they do start out by using natural corn in the beginning of the HFCS making process but then they go HAM with the evil genius scientific techniques.
Because the thing we know as HFCS goes through about a zillion chemical enzyme reactions and then whats left is a dangerous man made invention that the FDA has sanctioned to be used in our foods.
HFCS is so bad that some scientists think that HFCS is the thing giving our kids ADHD.
Cha ching! More drugs being prescribed.
HFCS is the devils food and Guess what else?
HFCS is one of the main ingredients that will make you have a fat stomach.
HFCS is the main cause of a disease called metabolic syndrome.
HFCS is sweet and easy to use in processed foods with but long term use is not good for your body.
Here are some clear reasons showing why corn syrup is bad.
Research has shown that “high-fructose corn syrup” goes directly to the liver, releasing enzymes that instruct the body to then store fat!
Research has shown that HFCS may elevate triglyceride (fat in blood) levels and elevate cholesterol levels.
Research has shown that HFCS causes fatty liver disease and metabolic syndrome
Research done at the University of California Davis report in the Journal of Clinical Investigation that consuming too much fructose can actually put you at greater risk of developing heart disease and diabetes
Not only that but…
Your brain does not metabolize HFCS and therefore it wont be able to tell you when you are full.
The except below explains…
One of the main concerns about excess sugar in general, and specifically HFCS, is the impact on weight gain.
Normally, our appetite is governed by a finely tuned hormonal system that drives us to eat just enough to meet our metabolic needs.
Ghrelin, secreted by the stomach, tells us we are hungry, while leptin signals our brain to tell us we are full.
The problem is that when HFCS is consumed, it does not shut off ghrelin, so we continue to feel hungry.
In addition, the leptin signal is not triggered, so we don’t feel full.
This drives overeating and contributes to obesity.
The excessive consumption of HFCS may be a main contributor to the incidence of diabetes in the US.
Now do you see? You wanna lose weight? then the facts are clear…HFCS is a NO NO.
Its going to be very hard to stop eating processed foods but you will have to if you want to be sexy like you were meant to be.

]]>Look at the maps below and see for yourself how obesity is sweeping over the nation like a cursed plague or like the evil black clouds that you see in shows like the Never Ending Story, Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter.
I will soon explain where I got these maps from and their significance but before I do…can I ask you something?
Has Wendy Williams or Jillian Micheals ever shown you something like this before?
The information that you are supposed to get from the info barrens in mainstream media don’t tell you the things you need to know.
Any topic you talk about even celebs and what they do can be attached to something important that people can learn Wendy..even Jerry Springer knows that because he always gives a final though at the end of his crazy show.
Dr Oz is out there but Dr Oz is only one person and mature older type people tend to watch Dr Oz …but what about you young folks? (People in their 30-40′s are not old to me)
You need to know this shit too.
Anyways..let me tell you whats up.
There is a non profit organization out there by the name of —TRUST FOR AMERICA’S HEALTH (TFAH)—and they are on a mission to save American lives by way of making disease prevention a national priority.
One the things they like to focus on is the prevention of obesity. So what they do is they publish an annual report on obesity in the United States and this year the report they created was titled:
“F as in Fat: How Obesity Threatens America’s Future 2011″ and its filled with some very sad news.
Basically Americans are transforming into a new breed of human…they are becoming more PIG like and at this alarming obesity rate, we might even start to look like an entirely different species all together in the next couple of years.
I am not making this up…look:
1. Adult obesity rates rose in 16 states over the past year. NOT EVEN ONE state decreased.
2. Twelve states, led by the southeast, now have obesity rates above 30 percent: Alabama, Arkansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, and West Virginia.
3. Just 4 years ago, one state was above 30%.
4. Obesity rates exceed 25% in more than two-thirds of states (38 states).
5. Mississippi had the highest rate of obesity at 34.4%.
6. Colorado had the lowest rate at 19.8% . It is the only state with a rate below 20% (but next year will probably be above)
7. Adult diabetes rates increased in 11 states and Washington, D.C. in the past year. In eight states, more than 10% of adults now have type 2 diabetes.
8. Education matters. High school dropouts have the highest rates of obesity (32.8%).
9. Money matters. Households that make less than $15,000 have a 33.8% obesity rate. Households that have an income above $50,000 have “only” a 24.6% obesity rate.
10. Over the past 15 years, seven states have doubled their rate of obesity. Another 10 states nearly doubled their obesity rate, with increases of at least 90%.
11. Over the past 15 years, diabetes rates have doubled in ten states. In 1995, only four states had diabetes rates above 6%. Now, 43 have diabetes rates over 7% and 32 have rates above 8%.
12. Ten years ago, no state had an obesity rate above 24%, and now 43 states have higher obesity rates than the state that was the highest in 2000.
