Love crunch, love crisp, love munch and be sick often!


Love crunch, love crisp, love munch and be sick very often!


"Love Crunch"

"Love crunch" This is the advt. words found on pack of cereal grain sold by a company claiming  to be natural and  rich in fiber. The ingredients are whole grains, flax seed, and chocolates. This is baked or roasted. Any food cooked at very high temperature, like roasting, deep frying or baking will lose its nutrients, fiber and enzyme contained in its natural form.

This packet too is the  same. It lost its nutrients. Then they add inorganic vitamin supplements to compensate the loss. When we buy it, we pay four or five times more price for the food. This is engineered food. When processed it lost its natural fiber.

Look at this video to know how cereals are made. They roast it at a temperature of 230 deg centigrade. Water boils at 100 Deg C. It is 2.3 times higher than that. In the process they lose vitamins. Then they add vitamins. Does it make any sense? The nutrients are wasted first from its natural state and then man-made vitamins are added using energy, and finally charged on the consumer. The company survives by doing this. Who is paying for the loss of vitamins? We. What is the price of 1 Kilo natural wheat or oats ? What is the price of 1 Kilo cereal? What a huge difference? Five to eight times more?

We love, crispy, munchy, fried chips, cookies,  biscuits, cereals. All these are processed foods that lost it's natural nutrients. It contains trans-fats, additives,  man made vitamins and colors.

Why we are addicted to this?.  We love the crunch. It is nothing but a psychological addiction. We are brain-tuned by advertisement. Think of the high price we pay for it. Think of the nutrients lost while it is manufactured. We are taken for a ride and robbed.

Our body requires vital nutrients in its natural form or else it lose its immunity and we are prone to frequent illness. How often do we get sick? Watch the food we eat. If we observe for a few months how our body feels, we can come to know the relation between processed food and sickness. Why more people are sick after the festive season like X mas, New Year etc. They eat more junks and the body does not have enough nutrients to keep up immunity.

Instead of crunchy, and munchy, take a fruit like banana, papaya, apple, or dry nuts like almond, pistachios, peanuts,  or dried fruits like dates. figs, or a salad. It will make you healthy. Take your meal in time. So you won't be tempted to go for crunchy.

Do you still want to love crunch, crisp, munch and be sick? Or go natural  and be healthy. The choice is yours. You are your own master. You are your own designer.
