12 Visuals that show why 70% of Americans are overweight or obese. 🧵
- 10 companies control almost all of the industrial food we eat.
- 70% of our crops are Genetically Modified (GMO).
- 4 Meat Packers control 80% of all meat that we consume. They undercharge the rancher and overcharge you the consumer.
- There is an overabundance of processed foods, including 47,000 products in your average grocery store.
- Our Doctors have become legalized drugs dealers and overprescribe medication rather than getting to the root cause of our illnesses.
- Our Pharmaceutical companies control our food (seed) supply.
- We broke the back of our small farmer and incentivized farms to be as large as possible.
Look up Earl Butz to find out more.
- We demonize Saturated Fat (which we have eaten for thousands of years) and have replace it with Refined Grains and Sugars.
The average American eats 130 pounds of sugar per year.
- We have replaced natural cooking fats (Ghee, Tallow, Butter) with Industrial Vegetable Oils made in a factory.
- We think that Fake Plant commodities like Beyond Meat are a healthier source than pure animal protein.
12: You've never shaken your local farmer's hand. They are incentivized to provide us with the best quality food possible.
