I have heard so many people say well Im just getting old, putting on weight, being on all this medication, or being in pain every day is just normal, that’s just how it is. But does it have to be? Or is that just the path that of least resistance? Has it become so normal to be overweight and on at least one medication that we don’t even think the alternative is an option. Commercials and corporations feed into that, it's how they make money.
A majority of what we consume on tv and social media regularly tells us that life is short live how you want. Being overweight is healthy. Everyone watches tv a lot chill out. If you don’t pay attention to Washington you’re sticking your head in the sand. You see ads for food as being healthy, when they simply aren’t. Orange juice, yogurt, white bread, diet coke. I mean at least with McDonalds and Dunkin donuts you know you’re eating something that’s not good for you but when you drink Orange juice they tell you it’s healthy, what they don’t tell you that one 12 oz glass comes with 9 teaspoons of sugar, as much as a coke.
They know we’re busy. They know we’re tired. They know we are stressed and they are targeting us for that. They have the shortcut to good sleep, you can still drink and eat whatever you want and this will get you to sleep anyway, never mind the side effects and here’s the shortcut to losing weight, but wait, being obese is healthy so you shouldn’t even want to lose weight, you’re healthy too. In the name of not hurting anyones feelings they are doing huge damage to the American public even though we all know the truth, it’s sad.
They want you to think destructive behavior like overeating and over drinking alcohol is normal. And maybe it is. In fact I know it is. It is normal to be overweight. Almost 75% of Americans are overweight and it’s getting worse. Listen to the episode to hear the solution....:)
