Genetically Modified (GM) food is unfortunately becoming more popular among farmers and food processors. Crops are being genetically modified to resist insects, plant diseases, insecticides(杀虫剂). Plants are also modified to look bigger and better. Unfortunately the end goal isn’t providing nutrition for people, it’s to increase profit margins and to make food look better. In fact many modern fruits and vegetables are twice the size of what they used to be while having far less vitamins, and not tasting good either. Now research is showing that genetically modified food might even be bad for you.

GM organisms are organisms that have genes inserted into their DNA in order to offer certain characteristics. In this way you can make it better, or make it last longer.

Jeffrey M. Smith has published a study about the dangers of GM food. It was discovered that when GM soy was fed to female rats they found that all their young died within 3 weeks compared to a natural 10% death rate. Their young were also born smaller and they later had problems becoming pregnant. A study of pigs found that they also became infertile(不育) after eating GM corn.

Many people are eating GM food without even realizing it. The solution to this problem is simple. Human beings existed in their current form for hundreds of thousands of years. For most of that time we ate a diet consisting of meat, fruit, vegetable, fish, eggs and nuts. This is our optimal diet which leads us to live a healthy and long life. But over the last 30 years North America has experienced diabetes, cancer and heart disease. All due to the misinformation provided by groups who work on behalf of the manufacturers of GM food. The way to avoid obesity, heart disease and cancer is by eating like our stone-age ancestors.

Healthy Breakfast Mistakes You Might Make This Morning

Breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but these mistakes could make your breakfast less healthy than you think.

If you never wake up hungry, take a look at your eating habits — you might be eating too much at night, says registered dietitian nutritionist Amy Shapiro, founder of Real Nutrition NYC.【小题1】, it’s a good idea to get something in your system (just a banana will do the trick) within an hour and a half of waking up to jump — start your metabolism (新陈代谢) and keep yourself from getting hungry later, she says.

You grab and go

【小题2】, you might be tempted to grab a granola bar or bagel. But if you don’t focus on what you’re eating, you could end up unsatisfied. “When we’re not paying attention to what we’re eating, we’re more likely to feel hungrier soon after,” says Andrea Moss, a nutrition coach. “Eating on the go can lead to impaired digestion from quick chewing.” 【小题3】, she says.

Protein gives you energy, while healthy fats keep you full and prevent you from eating too much, Moss says. “The old saying ‘a calorie is a calorie’ is false. It’s what makes up those calories that’s most important,” she says. “【小题4】.” Shapiro recommends eggs, cottage cheese, nut butter, and yogurt to give your breakfast a protein boost.

“I advocate for plants in every meal,” Shapiro says. She recommends including a serving of fruits or veggies by cooking spinach or tomato in your eggs, adding avocado to your breakfast sandwich, or eating half a banana with toast.
