Our Food - Just Empty Calories?

Unfortunately, America's food source is not what it seems, nor does the food contain the vitamins, minerals, enzymes and available amino acids and proteins required for good nutrition. In order to mass produce, distribute and protect from spoilage, our food manufacturer's and distributors, must irradiate our food with ionizing gamma radiation to kill microorganisms and parasites and protect from the development of toxic microoganisms during storage and transport. Sulphites and Nitrites are also often added to food, which places extra stress on our kidneys when clearing out these chemicals. There are many other techniques, but these i find to be the most troubling as they chemically or structurally modify the actual molecules the food is made of, altering their use as fuel in our bodies. For example, Gamma radiation has the potential of permanently modifiying the actual protein and DNA structure that the food is made of rendering it unusable by the body or what's possibly more troubling, making the proteins mutated in a way that they may cause dysfunctional or even mutated structures in our bodies once incorporated into our cells and tissues. Microwaving foods, especially protein, at prolonged higher temperatures may have a similar effect, and none of these effects and the possible creation of mutated proteins that we ingest have been studied long-term. Much of our food sources are stored in bright Ultraviolet lighting which also has long-term effects of destroying vitamins in food, particularly vitamins, B, C and A and D. So Buyer beware that the stated vitamins and minerals listed on food packaging are not what you are ingesting and absorbing when you eat your chosen foods. It would be in the consumers best interest to choose minimally processed, fresh food and supplement their diet with high levels of B Vitamins, Vitamin C and fresh enzymes, Macro and trace minerals.
