I think this is a better way to do it. I actually think you sound pretty educated on a lot of stuff, your first paragraph i just thought was way off. After that i generally agreed with everything you said, though I think what the government/food industry has told us has more or less been correct for years its the newly formed health food revolution that is trying to leech money from us by feeding us misinformation and high priced supplements
. I don't know what you are basing this on unless you use the media as your source for information, because they tell the truth. Greedo this is not an attack but I just want to point out the flaws that exist in alot of peoples thinking. Governments would have you believe that natural products are the enemy because of one or two possible, albeit never proven, products may have been ingested when some high profile athlete has died. For example, MaHuang. They make it sound like some deadly drug that kills people, I got news for ya. It has been linked to 2 deaths in the last 10 years. You have any idea how many died from the pharmaceutical drug fen-phen, 10 of thousands, and more with heart defects. It's the government not making the money off
the supplement industry that is the problem. The drug companys have payed billions. Read Kevin Trudeau's Book or watch a movie called the Corporation

It's the processing that's causing alot of the health and obesity problems
.
This is an overstatement. Processed foods are not the healthiest foods, but they are not really bad for you, you just need to eat a balanced diet, not 100% processed foods.
Processing and stripping away the nutrients in food and adding sugar and salt is exactly what is bad for you. MSG, nitrates and chemicals you can't pronounce are all part of the processing. For example, their is over 1000 listed items that are not approved for consumption that are allowed to be listed as "spices" in your food. Most should not be in their but the processing causes them to be included, like Heptane.

Never minding the calorie in calorie out theory, it was never proven anyway.
umm... it wasn't? Regardless, calorie in = calorie out.
Actually this is in great debate at several Universities right now. The fact that any two people at the same weight, height, lifestyle and eating habits. with the exact same caloric intake can lose or gain different amounts of weight is proof enough. But their is also the thermogenisis of macronutrients that are not taken into account in this theory. How can someone that eats 2000 Cals a day in protien and fat lose 45% more fat weight and lose signifacantly less fat free mass ( infact muscle and bone increases) than somene that takes in the exact same calories in carbohydrate and fats.

Your body is in a complete vitamin and protien difficiency because of the processing and genetic manufacturing.
People get plenty of vitamins, and protein. Eating more vitamins, for the typical person, will do nothing. Eating more protein will probably have benefits, but more because you'll be eating less fat, and because protein tends to suppress your appetite, than that your body isn't getting the protein it needs to function, as it gets plenty.
Just the average Tomato has almost 20% less vitamin C and anti-oxidants than it had 10 years ago because of aggracultural practices like fertilization and genetic modifications( bug and disease resistance)Amino acids in protien are responsible for tissue repair, metaboilism and alot of bodily functions to name a few.

Your in a starvation mode 24/7 because of a lack of essential fats, minerals and phytochemicals
.
Poeple could get more phytochemicals if foods weren't processed. I don't know much about omega 3 and 6 fats, i'm guessing we'd get more of those too. the misnomer here is, phytochemicals and omega fats aren't essential. There are many essential nutrients, these aren't them. They're great for us, but you can live a perfectly healthy life without them.
They are absolutely essential. With just a 10% increase in Omega 3 and 6 your metabilism and blood fat levels will improve 50%. Without Omega fats you will die. That's essential.

Most people over eat the wrong foods knowing they are wrong because of mental issues. I.E: comfort, childhood trauma, depression and/or fear. Food is the trigger for relief and was taught at an early age.( poor baby is upset, here's a cookie.) I can go on all day with this so I'll stop her

this is probably exaggerated, but probably has a lot of truth to it.
thanks for that one. I expected more from this statment than the others

P.S. Your not hungry your thirsty. Stop drinking water with chlorine, flouride and heavy metals, your tap water is a major problem.
This is total bunk. the levels of those things in tap water are not bad for you. Even if you thought the levels were too high, and that they were bad for you, water is water, you wouldn't be thirsty, those things would cause problems other than thirst. .
I urge you to read more on things about Flouride , chlorine and heavy metals like mercury. If you do you will never drink tap water or brush your teeth with flouride again. Our own governments say not to give children undr 3 flouride yet it's in everything produced with water. It causes brain undergrowth and has links to thousands of modern ilnesses like altziemers. Look up Kevin Trudea. Ya he's a little over the top but he is telling the truth. Read Natural cures, read fastfood nation and talk to a Naturapath and see how you feel after.
