Subverted my view of food

I met Dr Lee during the annual health check. When I asked him if I needed some vitamins, he recommended this movie to me. I just threw the thawed sausages into the trash after watching this movie, and regretted that I didn't pay attention to his suggestions earlier.

1. The side effects of
science The progress of science and technology far exceeds the change of human genes. People like to eat high-energy sugar, people like to eat when they are full, and these are for better survival in the era of food shortages. However, advances in science and technology have fooled the senses that people have been able to survive for tens of thousands of years. A large number of cheap, processed and high-calorie foods have been produced. These are not only not beneficial to humans, but also pose a huge threat to human health. These foods were pointed out by a doctor that, like drugs, they stimulate the nerves that produce happiness at the cost of health. Obesity patients are very common in the United States. The secret of my company is that I secretly speculated that she would have to buy 3 plane tickets. It is worth mentioning that while many people in the United States have become slaves to appetite, there are also some who bravely defeated their desire to become vegetarians. These people eat healthier than traditional Chinese.

2. Misleading
milk, fast food, sweets, etc. from businesses and governments is already a huge industry, involving the interests of countless businesses. In the United States, merchants have paid to sponsor the Bureau of Agriculture, and some of the board of directors of the Bureau of Agriculture are also held by business representatives, thus losing third-party independence. The Bureau of Agriculture will also influence the government's recommendations on dietary standards, so that the health of the people gives way to maximizing the interests of businesses. Milk, a calcium supplement that I was educated since I was a child, has been pointed out that it is actually one of the culprits of bone fragility. What really shocked me was that Fat-free fresh milk has a higher protein content than ordinary fresh milk, and it is more harmful to the human body. Why does this make China's situation where normal temperature milk occupies the main market so embarrassing?

3. The answer is vegetarian
The impact of a vegetarian diet on health is shocking. It can not only effectively prevent high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and other diseases, but also effectively cure these diseases. Although my health is not affected by the above-mentioned diseases, sticking to a vegetarian diet seems to be a low-cost, high-return long-term investment. At present, the biggest challenge should be the worry that the taste will be greatly reduced, but the pursuit of health while ensuring deliciousness should be an achievable goal. At the same time, part of the pressure will also come from the traditional culture of drinking and drinking with friends and family.
I plan to learn more about Dr. Esselytyn, Dr. Campbell and Matt Lederman's research, and then slowly switch to a vegetarian diet. However, whether vegetarian food is really as good as the movie advertises remains to be seen by myself. Try it for 3 weeks before watching.

In short, this is a documentary that may make your life different from now on.
