The Ultimate Human with Gary Brecka

NOTE

The Truth Behind Food Production and Chronic Disease

Chronic disease in America is largely preventable, with misinformation about food safety and the use of chemicals like glyphosate at the center of the issue. The significant changes in food preservation have transformed what we consume into products that may no longer be considered food, as evidenced by the ability of certain fruits to last for extended periods without spoiling. A call for a shift toward sustainable agriculture emphasizes the need to revitalize the soil's nutrients, which directly impacts human nutrition. Current agricultural practices prioritize yield over nutritional quality, neglecting the essential nutrients that crops need. The prevalence of pesticides, herbicides, and genetically modified organisms diminishes the focus on improving the nutritional content of staple crops, while the harmful effects of these practices can lead to environmental degradation and the extinction of beneficial pests. Ultimately, the profit-driven motives within food production systems contribute to these chronic health issues, necessitating a grassroots movement to demand healthier, more sustainable food practices.
