“In the United States and most Western countries, diet-related chronic diseases represent the single largest cause of morbidity and mortality." -Origins and Evolutions of the Western Diet 

Do you know why this is happening?  It’s the amount of processed food people are consuming! Let’s be honest, processed food is cheap, quick, and in many cases tastes pretty damn good. Many people reach for processed foods because eating healthy is costly and time consuming. The problem is, these fast, chemical filled, nicely packaged foods are killing us. 

Hmm, what to do? Oh, wait, I know, eat single ingredient foods!  Is eating single ingredient foods easy? Nope!  But neither is weight gain, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, or low energy.  Think of it this way, eating well is like putting money into your 401K, you are investing in yourself for today and for the future.
