No kidding. The sad part is that most everything you see on a grocery shelf anymore is not good for you. Most of it is packaged and processed junk. And as I mentioned, milk and beef are full of hormones, but even the fruits and vegetables have been sprayed with herbicides. Unless one adopts a monk lifestyle and relegates himself to a broccoli and hot tea diet, it's very difficult to eat healthy. Take fish as an example... fresh fish is ideal, but how many people are eating fresh fish? Unless you're a fisherman or you live near the coast, most people are eating canned fish. What are the mercury levels at? Hard to say.D-train wrote: ↑Tue May 31, 2022 4:24 pmI wonder if the NFL subsidizes these feed lots?douche wrote: ↑Tue May 31, 2022 4:06 pmA combination of things... they certainly consume a lot of calories. In addition, there are a lot of hormones involved... in meat and milk, hormones are added through production. Steroid hormones are given to beef cattle to make them grow faster, build more muscle and make their meat leaner. Two-thirds of all cattle and about 90 percent of the cattle on feedlots in the United States are given hormones.
Personally, I think a person can eat what they want (allergies aside), so long as it's in moderation and they're getting plenty of water, exercise and sleep. But that's just my two cents'.
