Do you know how poison tastes like? I’m sure you know very well the effects of eating fast food. We all know it may cause chronical diseases such as diabetes, obesity, high-blood pressure and many others. Maybe because it is easy for preparing or it seems to be a way of saving time, fast food has became one of the most appealing quick meal alternatives to tonnes of people. Besides the risk of having a heart attack out of the blue for example, eating junk food can also mess with your mental capacity. I remember reading this book named ‘’The Ultramind Solution’’ by Mark Hyman last year, and what it basically says is that what you are putting on your body is messing with your selective focus, slows your logical thinking, provides you a fake source of energy not to mention many others similar bad things in the long term like cancer disease. This type of food gives you a sudden peak of energy and then a valley comes right after, that’s why it is so hard eating only one piece of pizza or only one hamburger. Furthermore, the brain’s reward system seems to empower this habit. It gives pleasure eating fast food and considering that it is often consumed along with beer, whiskey, cigarretes it gets way worse especially to your immune system. But what are the benefits of eating healthy ? More energy is a huge one. You can also set on the list getting rid of (or drammatically lower) the risk of having one or more of the diseases mentioned so far. Drop your junk food consumption to once a month. I get that even to an adult person a piece of pizza seems more tasty than a piece of broccoli for example, but if you stop to consider the long term effect it really pays off.
