Healthy Habits



               


Healthy Habits

People say that eating a lot makes you fat, and that meat makes you have muscles because of Protein Nutrition. Protein is animal “fat” which means it makes you fat. You can still become fat from eating plants too but that is if you eat plants when you are full.  Meat builds fat on your skin which leads into fatness and overweight. Doctors would recommend foods like baked chicken and fish, but nutritionists prefer plants only. You might see bill boards saying something about a plant based diet or eating fruits and vegetables more than meat. I am a child so meat is served to me all the time because my parents are obsessed with it. When they serve me meat, I can eat the meat first then plant food. If you are trying to lose weight, then you should either go see a nutritionist or just exercise while having daily salad. Plants have less protein that will give you real muscles and not animal fat. “Forks Over Knives” is a documentary that you can watch on Netflix. I don’t know if it still plays, but you can try if you have an account. The documentary is about healthy foods. The only thing I respectfully disagree from the documentary is that it said that fast food is unhealthy. I disagree with this because it is your food choice of what you want to eat there. McDonalds has salad; so if you want to be healthy, just get a salad. The nuggets, fries, and maybe burgers are unhealthy. Citizens of Thailand, China, Japan, India, Italy, and a few African citizens are healthier than American citizens.


Cholesterol
   Cholesterol also known as high blood pressure has a cure. The cause of high blood pressure is the same cause of fatness. The cause is meat. To reverse cholesterol you must eat plants. Cholesterol is animal fatness blocking your blood from flowing in the body. When you eat meat then your stomach has a hard time recognizing if you are full or not. Plants, on the other hand tells you when to stop and completely fills the belly. Every time I am done eating meat, my stomach keeps making the growling sound. If you go to the doctor for a cholesterol problem then all the doctor is going to say is to eat less fried chicken. If you do want to eat fried chicken then eat the whiteness in it only. The doctor might say to eat baked chicken. Cholesterol is just basically plaque blocking blood from animals like I said earlier.

Heart Cancer
   Now it is time to talk about the last disease you can get from meat, Heart Cancer. There are other diseases caused by meat mostly cancer except for lung cancer because lung cancer is from smoking. Heart cancer is caused from eating big meats and usually people over weight would die from this. Other people say that being overweight is from eating donuts, cupcakes, candy, cake, and etc. If the ingredients to make it are healthy, then it’s healthy. Back to heart cancer, if you eat big meats like pork chops, ham, big burgers like a B.L.T., steaks, grilled hotdogs, and etc. then your heart will be affected. High blood pressure or high cholesterol can damage a blood vessel from meat, cause a heart failure or heart attack, a kidney failure, or a stroke. People think the cause of heart cancer is not solved yet by scientists and that it is a mystery. Everything has a cause and I think the cause is high cholesterol, over weightiness, and fatty food (meat).

Diabetes
   Diabetes is from eating a lot of carbohydrates. Now this is the only bad thing about plants. Carbohydrates are wheat related food. If you eat foods like wheat bread, donuts, pizza, rice, macaroni, corn, and beans every day or all day then you will get diabetes. Its plant based food but it doesn’t make since to eat the same product all the time. Carbohydrates are healthy nutrition but don’t eat each food product of carbohydrates for breakfast, lunch, and dinner all day or every day. I don’t know the cure for diabetes but it is just important not to get diabetes.


Avoid Low Fat Milk    
     Low fat milk causes cardiovascular disease. When I watched Forks Over Knives they talked about low fat milk causing some kind of disease that causes holes on your bones. I forgot the name of the disease though. I went and looked on Google to see the name of it but cardiovascular disease was the only one I saw. Cardiovascular disease is a plaque buildup inside the heart artery. The plaque forms a blood clot and blocks all of the blood. Low fat milk can make you obese and it can make you have diabetes even though it is not a carbohydrate. Low fat milk is like the drinking version of meat.
