Zone1 Another Axis of Evil...do you know where/who?

Well, I would say many food dyes, nitrates, nitrates, hydrogenated oils, sugars, are just a start. The glyophosphate in our nasty breakfast cereals is no help. Throw some pfas from our lively industrial complex as well. Tip of the iceberg.
Sure it is.
Okay, let's start with sugar. How exactly is sugar causing diabetes and heart disease. People live to be over a 100 years old eating sugar. Gives us your explanation.
Sugar, my brain uses a 1/4 of sugar a day. All my cells need sugar every day. It is all bullshit. Fiction based on fact.
Heart disease and diabetes? Not genetics? Not over eating? No exercise?
 
Too many refined sugars are simply bad. That's a fact. american food processors pack it full. They are hurting people
 
Our body can not store sugar as fat unless you eat too much of it. You have no idea of the biology of our bodies.

Your brain will use processed sugar to power your brain, a quarter pound each day.
So are you on board with us food manufacturers aren't in it for the good of thr people?

You said processed sugar is stored as fat. You are wrong.
Now you fabricate a statement that has nothing to do with your incorrect ideas.

Your brain uses 1/4 of sugar a day. If you ate processed sugar your body will use that sugar to power your brain.
 
Corporate food manufacturers arrcs detrimental our health. Like it or not it cannot be refuted.
 
Scott Galloway is a well-known American professor, author, and podcaster. He is the Professor of Marketing at the New York University Stern School of Business, where he has taught since 2002, and is the founder of several companies, including L2, a business intelligence firm, and Section4, an online education platform.

He was a guest on Michael Smerconish's CNN Saturday morning show (12/15/2024), and talked about the other Axis of Evil, and it's right here in the USA, and who it is...the industrial food complex, the pharmaceutical industry, and the health insurance industry.
Here's a breakdown of the potential issues...
Industrial Food Complex:
  • Unhealthy Food Products: This industry is often criticized for producing highly processed, nutrient-poor foods that contribute to obesity, diabetes, and other chronic diseases.
  • Lobbying and Regulation: The industry has significant influence on food policies and regulations, which can hinder efforts to promote healthier diets.
Pharmaceutical Industry:
  • High Drug Prices: Pharmaceutical companies are frequently criticized for setting excessively high prices for medications, especially those treating chronic conditions.
  • Direct-to-Consumer Advertising: DTC advertising can encourage unnecessary drug use and drive up healthcare costs.
  • Lobbying and Regulation: The industry also lobbies heavily to influence drug pricing and regulatory policies.
Health Insurance Industry:
  • Limited Coverage: Many health insurance plans have high deductibles and co-pays, making it difficult for individuals to afford necessary care.
  • Administrative Costs: A significant portion of healthcare spending goes towards administrative costs, such as billing and insurance paperwork.
  • Profit-Driven Model: Some argue that the insurance industry's focus on profits can lead to decisions that prioritize financial interests over patient care.
By labeling these industries as an "axis of evil," Galloway is likely suggesting that they work together to maintain a system that prioritizes profits over public health. This system, he argues, contributes to rising healthcare costs, poor health outcomes, and increased reliance on medication.

What do you think?
Basically, he's just dissected what makes up the American Dream

All leading to the destruction of capitalism.
 
I asked which food is heart disease and diabetes, as the OP mentions, is causing heart disease and diabetes and nobody can name one single food.

That is very good to know, that nobody in this thread has the vaguest idea what they are talking about.
Top Foods Cardiologists Want You to Avoid for Heart Health
  • Red meat (including “the other white meat”) ...
  • Bacon, hot dogs, and other processed meats. ...
  • French fries and other fried foods. ...
  • Sugary drinks and cereals. ...
  • Potato chips and snack foods. ...
  • Full-fat dairy products. ...
  • Baked goods, cookies, and pastries.

Foods that increase the risk of diabetes include:
  • Refined grains: White bread, white rice, white flour pasta, and sugary cereals

  • Sugary drinks: Soda, sweet tea, juice, sports drinks, and energy drinks

  • Sweets and snack foods: Cake, cookies, candy, chips, and dried fruit

  • Starchy vegetables: White potatoes, corn, and peas

  • Fried foods: French fries and fried chicken

  • Red and processed meats: Bacon, deli meat, sausages, ham, pepperoni, and salami

  • Foods high in sodium: Foods with high amounts of salt
Foods that are high in carbohydrates are quickly converted into energy and can cause blood sugar levels to rise.


A healthy diet can help prevent type 2 diabetes. A healthy diet includes:

  • Fruits and vegetables
  • Whole grains
  • Nuts and legumes
  • Limiting red and processed meats
  • Limiting refined grains
  • Limiting sugar-sweetened beverages

Regular physical activity, maintaining a healthy weight, and moderate alcohol consumption can also help prevent type 2 diabetes.

Your brain needs a quarter pound of sugar a day. Carbohydrates are the good sugar, fruits contain the bad sugar.

130 grams a day or 4.6 ounces
How much sugar does your brain need daily?


A normal weight adult requires 200 g of glucose per day, two-thirds of which (about 130 g) is specifically needed by the brain to cover its glucose needs. The brain competes with the rest of the body for glucose when levels dip very low — such as during starvation
 
Sure it is.

This may be a start....from my query about sugar put to meta.ai (Meta's Artificial Intelligence "ask anything" website (Mark Zuckerburg).

    • Increased risk of diabetes: Consuming large amounts of sugar can lead to insulin resistance, a precursor to type 2 diabetes.
    • Weight gain and obesity: Excess sugar calories can contribute to weight gain, particularly around the midsection, increasing the risk of obesity-related health issues.
    • Cardiovascular disease: High sugar intake can raise blood pressure, triglycerides, and LDL (bad) cholesterol, increasing the risk of heart disease, heart attacks, and strokes.
    • Tooth decay and gum disease: Sugar is a primary source of energy for bacteria in the mouth, leading to tooth decay and gum disease.
    • Energy crashes and mood swings: Consuming large amounts of sugar can cause a rapid spike in blood sugar followed by a crash, leading to energy crashes, mood swings, and irritability.
    • Inflammation and oxidative stress: Excessive sugar consumption can lead to chronic inflammation and oxidative stress, which can contribute to aging, cancer, and neurodegenerative diseases.
    • Cognitive decline: High sugar intake has been linked to an increased risk of cognitive decline, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease.
    • Nutrient imbalance: Consuming large amounts of sugar can lead to an imbalance of essential nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and fiber.
    • Increased risk of certain cancers: Some studies suggest that high sugar intake may increase the risk of certain cancers, such as pancreatic cancer.
    • Gut health issues: Excessive sugar consumption can disrupt the gut microbiome, leading to digestive issues, bloating, and other gastrointestinal problems.
 
Basically, he's just dissected what makes up the American Dream
I would just add that he has also said that the bottom 90% of income earners work to support the top 10% of income earners. So, it looks like the 10% have reached the American Dream, and the 90% are struggling to get there.

It's called 'The Dream' in the US, it's called 'Normal Life' everywhere else.

Uh, so. Overweight over eating people have this problem.

Everything over consumed, excessive, is bad.

Your brain needs a quarter pound of sugar a day
