Food for Healthy
The
food that we have
eaten seems to have profound effects on our healthy. Although science
has made
enormous steps in making food more fit and delicious to eat, it has, at
the
same time, made many foods are not healthy to be eaten. Some research
has shown that perhaps
seventy percent of all human illnesses are related to diet and forty two
percent
of cancer related to the diet also, especially cancer of the liver. Many
people from different culture are more prone to contract certain
illnesses because of the
characteristic foods they have consumed.
That food is related to
illness is not a new invention. In 1945, government had done researches realized that
nitrates and nitrites (commonly used to persevere color in meat) as well as
other food additives caused a new problem, it was cancer. These carcinogenic additives have remained in
our food that we eat, and it becomes more difficult to know which ingredients
on the packaging labels of processed food are helpful or harmful.
The additives that we
eat are not all so direct. Farmers often give penicillin to poultry or cattle,
and because of this, penicillin has been found in the milk of treated buffaloes and cows. Sometimes
similar drugs are used to animals not for medical purpose, but of
course for the reasons of financial. These farmers are always trying to fatten the
animals in order to obtain a higher price in sale on the market. These procedures, the
practice is still continued although the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has controlled repeatedly it.
A healthy diet is
directly related to good health. We are often unaware of the detrimental
substances that we have ingested. Sometimes the other farmers or others who do not
realize the consequences add these substances to food without thingking more.
