American Cancer Institute, may have good intentions, created the Food Pyramid and nearly 30 years ago. Alleged "a balanced diet, are" people will be able to avoid the most common diseases and live healthier. Unfortunately, this was really the case?
The problem with the wording of the Food pyramid, which was formed from a single study. In this study, more than half a million people to fillquestionnaires on what they ate regularly. Supporters of this study were compared to data concerning the performance of health examinees in the next 10 years.
Researchers concluded that "red meat" causes cancer and heart disease. And the media, without having asked the second question, that the findings of facts and news broadcasts around the world. This has resulted in the food pyramid, which supports more grains and less meat and dairy products.
And howWe all know what also led to a sharp increase in the incidence of heart disease, cancer and obesity. Something is clearly wrong, the food pyramid, but the "authorities" do not rush to admit error.
What we can do is back as our grandparents ate. Eat meat without hesitation, but they are so that the meat comes from healthy sources (such as grass-fed cows than grain-fed them). It is also a good idea to change the system of dietary supplement- Place of medication, the natural choice of accessories, such as health, the Brazilian miracle-fruit, strawberries Acai.
