Speech (links at bottom)

I am here to tell you that most people should eat a better and more varied diet, but mainly better. You may think “Hey I eat a lot of things and I eat veggies and fruit once a day.” You may eat those things once a day I eat vegetables pretty much once a meal, and fruit really, when I can get it. You may think “I eat a lot of good things” do you check the ingredients? If you do not you should. Fewer ingredients most likely means that it is better because there is less room for bad things. How many things do you raise for food? Before we moved my family and I would raise pretty much every kind meat that people can and we ate it. We fed the animals ourselves, we butchered them ourselves too. We got milk from goats and we made cheese and yogurt from it. We got meat from pigs, rabbits, and chickens. We also started growing kale, spinach, tomatoes, cucumbers and things like those in our gardens.

The top five most eaten foods are, according to, Healthy You Naturally Wellness Centres, Hamburgers, Hot Dogs, French Fries, Oreo Cookies and, drum roll please, Pizza. At CNN the Hamburger is # 2 and the Hot Dog is # 4. according to You Naturally Wellness Centre Look at some ingredients in Hamburgers. '“Considered a "high risk" food because of the poor health standards under which they are manufactured. The time-consuming process of making processed meats creates high bacteria counts and putrefaction of the meat which need to be treated with chemicals. Putrefaction causes the meat to turn green which is then dyed with red chemicals to appear fresh...Most hamburgers contain the flavor enhancer, MSG (monosodium glutamate) which causes headaches, allergic reactions and more.”' This is not good.

Some people think the same way you, as I listed.But maybe you’re thinking “Woah Woah Woah there buddy I do not eat Hamburgers all the time noooo, I only eat them when it is lunch time and I am not at home.” You may be one of those people. I still eat more healthy than that. I NEVER eat Hamburgers unless we are not at home AND the time is like ten o'clock and we have not eaten supper (or dinner) yet. Look at some of the ingredients in the French Fries. This info is from Healthy You Naturally Wellness Centres. "French fries are very toxic. In order to make French fries, they must be cooked at high temperatures which cause the chemical, acrylamide to be released. Acrylamides are a known cancer-causing agent that also causes nerve damage. Fries are cooked in oxidized oil that is reused for weeks at a time! Potatoes have a very high glycemic index meaning it turns to sugar very quickly in the body. Eating a baked potato (or an equivalent quantity of French fries) is the sugar equivalent of a large piece of chocolate cake." I am not trying to brag and say “Hey I'm better than you, and you guys need to eat better or else.” No, I am giving you an example to follow. I’m saying that I do it every day and you can, if you want to, BIG if, at least try it. It's not as hard as you think.
