It\u2019s where all of those diseases come from.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If this interests you as much as it does us, here is the number one way to decrease your metabolic dysfunction, age you quicker and increase your likelihood of diseases:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Eat processed foods.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The most important thing to know about your food is not what\u2019s in it<\/strong>. It\u2019s what has been done to it to make it <em>processed. <\/em>And yes, even your organic box of cereal that\u2019s made with all-natural ingredients can <em>still qualify<\/em> as processed poison.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Did you know that the USDA and the FDA are fully aware of the dangers of processed foods, yet continue to allow grocery stores to sell them? All while knowing that this so-called food is slowly poisoning the consumers of the United States.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Food writer Mark Bittmas says that since food is defined as a \u201csubstance that provides nutrition and promotes growth\u201d and poison is a \u201csubstance that promotes illness,\u201d then \u201cmuch of what is produced by industrialized agriculture is, quite literally, not food but poison.\u201d&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"399\" src=\"https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/a1-30.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-31418\" title=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/a1-30.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.jinfiniti.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/a1-30-480x319.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dr. Robert Lustig compiles reasons for why Big Food\u2019s processed diet is making us sick, and why it\u2019s designed that way on purpose so that more sick people will require the drugs Big Pharma is offering.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dr. Lustig explains that of the eight pathologies (Heart Disease, Cancer, Stroke, Chronic Lower Respiratory Disease, Alzheimer\u2019s, Diabetes, Influenza and Pneumonia, and Kidney Disease) that are most commonly killing us, <em>none <\/em>of them are curable via drugs.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five of them respond to exercise, which is vital; however, as Dr. Lustig says, you can\u2019t outrun a bad diet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The only thing that responds to all eight pathologies is <\/strong><strong><em>food. <\/em><\/strong>Real food nourishes us on a metabolic level. That\u2019s because our bodies know what to do with real food. It breaks it down into assimilable vitamins and minerals, which convert into cellular food like NAD, thus, increasing metabolic function.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Real foods give your body essential vitamins and minerals that help your body create vitally important cellular food such as nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)\u2014one of the building blocks of nearly every cellular process in the human body.&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cIf <em>you<\/em> do not fix <em>your<\/em> food, you continue to court disease and untimely death. If <em>we <\/em>do not fix <em>our <\/em>food, we will continue to court societal and planetary oblivion.\u201d\u2014Dr. Robert Lustig<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">In America, we spen<strong>d 97.5 percent of our healthcare budget<\/strong> on individual treatment and only 0.5 percent of our budget on preventative care.&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In reality, this bad cycle of only reactively treating symptoms while continuing to under-nourish our cells leads to a collective, societal breakdown of our cellular health and metabolic dysfunction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thankfully, the people we serve are proactive, not reactive with their health.
