New Knowledge

Hey, I'm so close to be done with the thesis and the presentation for it :) yay!!! I like watching documentaries, so of course I managed to watch a few documentaries: 'King Corn' (from 2002) and .Hungry for Change' (from 2012). The 'King Corn' - was funny enough about corn from how it is produced to when it is put on the shelf - the whole processs, also they reveal that corn is in many products - even products you wouldn't think had corn in it, has corn in it. Well Food Inc. circles around corn aswell, but this docuemtary goes into deeper details, so if you want to know how the corn is processed? Well go and watch it (because it goes through a lot of processes - Atleast in my opinion, as it becomes so unatural that your body doesn't even know what it is. Just take the meat, it gets so processed, but they still make it taste and look like it is an attractive piece of meat for a cheap price - but what about your body? Your body does not recognize this stuff that you call meat)!

I especially recommend people to watch 'Hungry for Change', yet it is basic and kind of logical, but it really helps you to get motivated - to start a healthy life style. It helps by putting everything in perspective, and yes it is something EVERYBODY can relate to, yes EVERYBODY. 

Enjoy!

Food Inc.

Hey, so yesterday I watched Food Inc. very interesting. The documentary reveals a scary truth, what do we know about our food? The documentary shows you the finished product (meat), made in the factory. Really scary! It looks like unrecognized food and so wrong! And what is more scary is that they use the meat to make hamburgers at common hamburger places around the world (so that it can taste exactly the same) - and they are pretty much everywhere in the world, and most people have eaten a hamburger from their place atleast once in a lifetime.
The corn product and its background information surprised me as well, you will be surprised to know how many products contain corn in them, again - how are you able to know? Read the labels!
Please consider to watch it. It is from 2008, even though it is 5 years old it is still on going. I find it crucial because we are clueless about what we eat, and we just trust the products and buy them.
In conclusion: READ LABELS!
And yes, good and well taken cared of food is harder to find or more expensive compared to the processed, but it is worth it. You are doing this for yourself (or for your family), but in overall you are doing this to stay healthy by eating clean food. Please take care of yourself!
