à quoi ça sert ça veut dire quoi ça
pourquoi c'est comme ça c'est où c'est
qui lui un jour une question pourquoi
doit-on faire attention à ce qu'on
mange avant que l'homme ne vive dans de
jolies maisons avec des frigos pleins il
était chasseur cuilleur c'est-à-dire que
l'homme préhistorique se nourrissait de
racines de baai et de viande autant dire
que les sodas les glaces et les pizzas
il n'en avait pas c'est au fil des
siècles que notre alimentation a changé
mais on mange bien mieux maintenant non
oui car l'agriculture a permis d'avoir
plus de légumes de céréales de viande et
de produits laitiers et ça c'est bien
mais l'agriculture a aussi permis de
produire plus de sucre et de gras et
depuis 100 ans on mange de plus en plus
de produits
industriels ces aliments produits dans
des usines comme les biscuits ou les
chips contiennent souvent plus de sucre
et de graisse qu'il ne faudrait pourquoi
car notre corps adore ça ce corps de
chasseur cueilleur est fou de plaisir
devant ses aliments qu'il n'aurait
jamais croisé dans la nature il en
redemande et les professionnels de
l'alimentation le savent ils ajoutent du
sucre dans tout un tas d'aliments même
salés cette alimentation peu naturelle
finit par faire grossir ceux qui la
mange ils sont en surpoids voire parfois
obèses et c'est très dangereux pour le
corps cela abîme les articulations
fatigue le cœur et augmente les risques
de maladie voilà pourquoi il ne faut pas
manger trop gras ou sucré hélas les
aliments industriels sont peu chers et
faciles à manger rapidement
contrairement au aliments de meilleure
qualité qui contiennent ses goûts dans
des quantités limitées mais adapté à
notre corps
