What food is actually healthy?
 

Happy President's day everyone! After going to the gym, I got home and watched 3 health documentaries.

Food Inc., Killer at Large, and Dirt The Movie.

Without boring you to death, the gist of it was to not eat processed foods and that even the "healthy" stuff in stores like Walmart isn't actually good for you.

So I have one simple question. What food is actually healthy?

Meats have steroids, fruits and vegetables has pesticides, grain based products are saturated with carbohydrates, anything in a can has preservatives, water from the tap has metals and harmful chemicals.

So what should you eat? What should you drink? Where should you get it from?

Hi!
Food Inc. is terrifying, isn't it!
Everything at the grocery store will have preservatives, pesticides, etc. Unless you want to start your own farm, you may have to accept that you can't avoid it all!
What I am doing is only buying from the outer edge of the grocery store (all your food groups), nothing from the aisles. Meat and cheese from the deli, milk and eggs, fruits and veggies, bakery fresh baked stuff (trying to avoid the bakery desserts though! Soooo good).
If you can afford it, get free-range/organic animal products (meats, eggs, and milk/cheese). Personally, I am afraid of added hormones/steroids rather than pesticides and preservatives. Also, free-range eggs taste better!
Some people swear by the hunter-gatherer diet, or the vegan diet, or other trends. To me this seems like too much money and effort to get all the nutrients you need. Fill up on veggies and fruits as much as you can stand to... :)

I would just stick with meats, veggies and fruits, some grains, no refined sugar or breads. Wash the veggies and fruits off well, don't worry too much about the pesticides in the fruits and veggies, or the steroids in meats, that's about the best you can do. Unless you can afford to buy steroid free, range meats and organic fruits and veggies, even then nothing is guaranteed.

As long as your staying away from processed foods, you're doing a LOT better than most people!

Today, I think it's hard to identify one. If one still exist then along the way it will become unhealthy since preservatives will be added, so on and so forth. That is why, we need to eat moderately . That means not too much of this and that. In short, we need balance diet for there are no 100% healthy food.

According to my experience the natural food is actually healthy like natural protein and nutrition diet when comes to your fitness, if you only want to gain weight or something like that so the steroid and supplements gives you very fast results, but these things are not long lasting they even harm your body internally. I suggest using natural pure diet like meat eggs milk fresh vegetable and fruits.
