Real food is the key to good health, processed food is not. Period.
Have you ever noticed how animals eat? Animals, unless domesticated, hunt/search/ arrange for their own food and food for them is, limited. So an average animal has to work hard to get food and many a times end up eating very little…just enough to last them for their next meal and all this food is unprocessed, raw and not even cooked. For human beings the scenario is just the opposite. Most of us, especially urban humans have too much food at our disposal and most of it is not in its natural form.
We do not have to do much physical labour to find food or to fix up our meals. On the contrary we have an over enthusiastic food industry that fills our departmental stores with all forms of edible, ready to cook things. The grains, pulses, fruits, vegetables and oils and spices are available off the shelf, can be ordered over a phone call and now on the click of a mouse…we have the luxury of buying highly processed, half cooked, frozen, ready to eat food… all you need is a toss in the pan and thawing in the microwave and voila your dinner is fixed.
