3. AVOID THE 25 WORST SO-CALLED "FOODS"

There are many good foods and not so many bad ones, but the bad ones are aggressively marketed in different packages and appearances, even when it's more or less the same junk.

Here are 25 foods that we should avoid, but don't worry, because next, I promise to give you 60 foods that you can enjoy! Deal?


AVOID THE 25 WORST SO-CALLED "FOODS"


01. Tuna Fish and other fish highly contaminated with Mercury and/or radioactive isotopes.

02. Farmed fish and fish from waters contaminated with PCBs, radioactive isotopes, toxic waste, etc. The very worst in this category is farmed fish from China, Vietnam, and Thailand.

03. Luncheon meats, deli meats, processed meats, Franks, Bacon, etc. Know what's in it and avoid these foods with sodium nitrite.

04. Commercially raised meat/poultry, especially from the US.

05. Ground meats, regardless. If necessary, pulverize them yourself in a food processor after cooking.

06. Cheese, Butter, Ice Cream, Shakes, and all dairy except organic milk/yogurt.

07. Bread (unless home baked whole grain), commercial cereals, other baked goods such as cakes, pies, donuts, cookies, muffins, etc.

08. Genetically modified Organisms (GMOs).

09. Margarine, Cooking oils, anything with trans fats or "hydrogenated" oils

10. Prepared and packaged snack foods, such as chips, popcorn (microwave popcorn is the worst), pretzels, doodles, etc.

11. Fried Foods: French fries, onion rings, breaded and fried fish/poultry/ meat.

12. Produce commercially grown using so-called pesticides and/or herbicides, and/or treated with fungicides, etc. At least avoid the most contaminated non-organically grown plants/plant products, which include coffee,  ALL berries, apples, grapes, peaches, spinach, and celery.

13. Soda, pop, both regular, diet, all varieties. Fruit juices, cocktails, drinks. Bottled water.

14. Beer, wine and other alcoholic drinks.

15. Coffee.

16.  Artificial sweeteners and any food or beverages containing them.

17. Anything loaded with sugar, corn syrup, or fructose (high-fructose corn syrup).

18. Anything loaded with salt -- prepared soups, fast foods, frozen dinners, etc. Check the labels.

19. Anything listing a lot of ingredients with long chemical names or nonspecific names like "flavor," or acronyms like "DATEM."

20.  Processed foods, including low-fat, frozen prepared dinners/entrees.

21. Peanut butter. Peanuts are often contaminated with aflatoxin-producing molds during storage. Alfatoxins are potent liver carcinogens. Commercial peanut butter adds more unhealthy fats, sugar, and salt, and then puts it in a plastic jar to dissolve more toxic chemicals.

22. Condiments--tartar sauce, mayonnaise, soy sauce, ketchup, etc.

23. Oils, vinegars, and other liquids in plastic containers.

24. Canned food.

25. On the go foods: Candy, chewing gum, packaged pastries, typical fast foods and typical restaurant food.
