Why Health Food Makes You Fat

If you want to build muscle and strip off all your unwanted body fat, here's some honest advice:

Avoid health food.

Let me explain why I stand behind this controversial statement.

Fifty years ago, the leanest and most muscular men consumed a diet that most modern-day nutritionists would consider shockingly unhealthy. They ate copious amounts of raw eggs. Drinking raw milk. Some even drank blood from a cow! In spite of eating large amounts of fat, the old school bodybuilders have lean, muscular and healthy.

Today, our definition of healthy food has changed. I could not help but notice that the low-fat cookies marketed as "healthy snack ."

carbohydrate-rich burritos now pass for a healthy lunch. A children wolf down cereal bowls all drenched in fat-free skim milk, because mom thinks it's healthy.

However, despite our obsession with health foods, Americans are fatter than ever. In Mississippi, a whopping 30% of all adults are considered overweight. And in the last 15 years, all 50 states showed an increase the number of adults now considered overweight.

This is exactly -. Despite all the healthy options available today, no state in the nation got leaner over the last 15 years

So, I do not believe the hype.

Your doctor will tell you this ... and the mainstream media certainly has not caught wind yet, but the high-fat diet may be only the healthiest way to eat.

avoiding sugar, skipping whole grains and other carbohydrates and instead of getting your calories from fat occurs naturally in whole eggs, nuts, meat and other natural ingredients, you will have a much easier ditching excess body fat.

and a smaller waist means a healthier body. So if you want to get lean and healthy, and then focus on eating "old school" food -. Kinds of things they ate 50 or 100 years

Think about it: Obesity is a new problem. And it became a problem because of our new food. So maybe our new healthy snacks just not all that healthy. Perhaps our healthy breakfast is not doing us any favors. And perhaps we should consider whether the giant burrito packed full of carbohydrates should really be considered a healthy lunch.

Perhaps the best thing to do is eat the way our ancestors ate. Focus on foods found in nature.

Oddly enough, it will probably end up leaner and healthier when you start shunning healthy foods.
