show on our foods we eat



Recommended Posts

My husband and I are watching a show on our foods we eat called food, inc.. All food in the grocery store and fast food is produced and controlled by 5 company's. The fda used to conduct over 50,000 inspections to regulate the safety of our food now it's maybe 4,000. Feeding the cows corn causes the ecoli that have caused outbreaks and death to the American consumers. The cows are fed the corn and it shows them knee deep in feces and then taken to the plant where they are processed and how dangerous and obvious that the feces become ground into our meats. Gross. Chickens used to grow in about 90 days to be ready for market now with injections and feed changes to corn they're ready in 35 days. They take two steps and collapse. Their bones and internal organs cannot keep up with the rate of growth and cannot support the weight of their body. So there they are crammed into a coup completely darkened from chick to 5 lb chickens in a months time and falling down in feces and we eat that. I don't know about you but eating fast food doesn't sound appetizing to me anymore. Organic and natural is sounding great. This is unbelievable. This documentary is enlightening. I also went to see jillian Michaels on tour and she said the same thing. It might be more expensive but think about it. If your health goes to **** and you get things like diabetes you now spend 70.00 or more a month on meds that Could've been spent on the difference between organic and non organic foods. I'm done. The government does not work to protect us. I do not trust the food on our shelves. Nasty gross

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
