Processed Food Causes Acne

Because We All Have to Eat Something?

I went to the grocery store and was checking out ingredients of some common in store items. Did you know that the white bread you are eating has sugar in it? Now why in the world would bread need to have sugar? Does anyone know what red 40 is, by the way? Isn’t that in those 25 cent koolaids I used to drink as a kid? How about xanthan gum? I was always told by my mom that gum sticks in our stomach like glue.

The fact is, the modern diet is the cause of our acne, and all other health issues for that matter. For thousands of years while the human body was being formed and evolved, our ancestors would live off of the foods mother nature gave us – they would ‘live off the land’. Meat, fish, coconuts, vegetables. They didn’t worry about the agricultural economy(aka money.) They didn’t worry about overpopulation. They worried about surviving, and making sure their children lived healthy lives – and quite healthily they did. I can confidently tell you that they didn’t have to worry about acne. In fact, our ancestors didn’t even know what acne was. It wasn’t a word in their language. They didn’t even know what bread and grain was. (Consequently, they didn’t have to worry about constipation causing acne.) Lets use bread as an example.

How did white bread come about? Back in the day people discovered they could use grain to make bread. Grain was cheap and the bread it produced could feed more people. Bread didn’t come about because health experts of the time said ‘carbohydrates are important.‘ This was just the start of bad things to come.

So bread started being distributed amongst the small communities. That’s until economy started to expand. Railroads were being built, and bread was perfect to distribute to far places. It didn’t go bad as quickly as meat or fish would, it was cheap, it kept stomachs unempty(for lack of a proper English word.)

There was one problem with the bread distributors master plan. When they would ship the bread, say on a railroad, the flies would get to the bread in transit and eat it. ‘This isn’t good for business,’ they thought. ‘There’s some nutritious value to our food and the flies like it’. That’s when they created the concept of white bread. By removing the germ from the grain, all the nutritious value was gone. The flies no longer wanted to eat it.

May I remind you, flies like to eat DOG SHIT. Meaning that stinky piece of poo Scruffy has left in the backyard has more nutritious value then white bread. Now a days there are some lackluster rules with nutritious value(thanks all holy FDA) – so bread companies need to inject their white bread with vitamins and minerals(this doesn’t make it anymore healthier – the label doesn’t tell you that). Referring to the earlier part of this reading, bread has sugar. Why sugar? Because they take so much shit out of the bread, there is no taste. They put sugar in the bread to give it taste. Lucky us. Now realize that this is just bread – modern processing techniques have come a long way with a multitude of foods. Now we have the wonderful ability to genetically process corn so we can produce more of it, so flies won’t eat it. We have the ability to give cows hormones so they produce more milk. All of this food is being distributed to the common consumer.

So what does this mean for the acne sufferer? Their is a common rule – any foods that are damaging to our body will be damaging to our skin. All modern processed foods are not natural. Remember that humans took thousands and thousands of years to evolve into what we take in as healthy and unhealthy. We’ve been eating solely meat and fish for a very, very long time. Now all of the sudden, say 100 or so years ago, we come up with all these BS food making techniques. Cancer is on the rise – acne is on the rise as well.
