Deeply unhealthy ultra-processed food should never be cheaper than healthy alternatives. We live in a sad state where this is the case and such disparity creates health inequality.
Such poor nutrition food should always be personal choice and never forced upon anyone by financial constraint.

購買色裝食物時，你會選「低糖」、「低脂」、「高鈣」、「高蛋白」的品牌嗎？近月來接連有新聞踢爆奸商用這些字眼欺騙消費者。食物標籤法例是否足夠保護我們呢？
標籤難睇：美國食品一向有詳細的營養標籤，本港也將會全面推行。不過，標籤字體一定很細，字體愈細表示你應該細讀。標籤分別列出了「100克」與「一份食第(One Serving )」的營養含量。比較不同品牌時，記著以「100克」的成份計算，因為「一份食第」的份量根本沒有公認的標準。
高低謠言：筆者逛起市，發現幾十元一包的高籤餅干含量跟一般餅干差不多，全間超市最纖的餅干是「鸚鵡」商標，需幾塊錢。香港某老牌「高蛋白麵包」的蛋白質含量並不高。一老牌「高鈣餅干」的鈣量也不高之外！可樂含糖糧還要高飲品也自稱「低糖」，真可笑。
認可虛偽：老牌麥片大肆廣告指可降低膽固醇，又獲美國心臟協會認可。不過，你有沒有留意過即食裝的糖含量。過多糖被攝取後，同欄會轉化成脂肪及膽固醇，危害心臟與血管健康。順道告訴你，美國心臟協會的認可是要付費「購買」的。
隱形的糖：「不如蔗糖」是好事。因它令血糖急升，增加肥胖與糖尿病的風險。選擇這類食品，請同時考慮「碳水化合物」的含量。包裝食物中的碳水化合物大多是白麵粉或其他糖份，同欄可令血糖急升
綠茶真差：綠荼含有豐富的荼多砏(Polyphenol)，可對抗疾病和抗老。可是，樽裝綠茶所含的荼多酚在製作過程中已消失殆盡。綠茶廠商當然不會告訴你這個。
瘦肉多鈉：鈉(Sodium)是高血壓的主要元凶。在切掉肥肉時，大量肉汁會隨之流失。為令瘦肉更多汁、鮮味，部份肉商會替瘦肉注入鹽水或味精，令瘦肉的鈉增加達幾十倍。假如你購買外國進口的包裝肉食，看清楚鈉的含量。
還以顏色：包裝食物普遍含有色素與防腐劑。雖然這些添加化學並不違法，但愈來愈多研究捐出。同時食用多種色素與防腐劑，可能引致兒童過度活躍，也會增加腎臟的負荷。
隱形惡脂：「咖啡奶粉」稱不含動物脂肪，全用植物油製造。真相是他們用比奶脂更差的椰油造成「反式脂肪奶粉」，味道不佳又害＿更大。
See the evil grin. She knows she just sold me a case of GS cookies and now she is pimping nutrition month. Yea, right.
I have more photos of the Acorn Woodpecker more than any other bird. They live in my "back yard" so to speak, and so it's been relatively easy to find them. The same can't be true for getting good shots.
The Acorn Woodpeckers are oddballs in many ways, but the weirdest habit is to cache acorns. Their lives are built around acorns. It's as though they went through the Great Depression and want to make certain thatt hey never run out of food even though acorns are low in nutritional value. There's a newer video on line of a pest control company opening a wall in a home near where I and the woodpeckers live. Over 700 pounds of acords were cached by one family in just one wall!
When it comes to drilling holes for the acorns in oak trees, they are initially very careful about spacing and which trees and which limbs. Then, they drill small, medium, and larger holes into which they hammer the acorns. And after a tree is almost full, they will spend years rearranging acorns moving some that have expanded dure to moisture into larger holes, and some which have dried in the heat into smaller holes. And they are always drilling.
This image shows another habit, actually a habit of many woodpeckers. But it is odder for the Acorn Woodpecker. This pecker is listening for insects and grubs under the bark. Fully a third of the diet of the acoirn woodpecker is protien; very little is acorns. Anyway, watch birds that climb the trunks and large branches of trees. They will stop, cock their heads listening, and then drill out the grubs that are so essential to their success. The average lifespan of an Acorn Woodpecker is 11-12 years; the longest lives was 17 years, 10 months. They must be doing something right.
Rice and lentils didn’t restrict me piersey.com/rice-lentils-fat-loss-routine/ they freed me. This post explains how eating simply gave me clarity, control, and comfort around food — and why I’m continuing with this approach.

the Apricot Kernels Nonsense
In November, 1921, a great English physician, Sir Robert McCarrison (after whom the McCarrison Society for Nutrition and Health is named), visited the USA at the invitation of the University of Pittsburgh, to deliver the annual sixth Mellon Lecture before the Society for Biological Research.
The subject of his paper was “Faulty Food in Relation to Gastro-Intestinal Disorders,” and its salient points centered on the marvelous health and robustness of the Hunzas, who dwell on the northwestern border of what was then British India (now Pakistan).
The sturdy, mountaineer Hunzas are a light-complexioned race of people, much fairer of skin than the natives of the northern plains of India. They claim descent from three soldiers of Alexander the Great who lost their way in one of the precipitous gorges of the Himalayas. They always refer to themselves as Hunzukuts and to their land as Hunza, but ignorant modern writers insist on calling the people Hunzas.
Most of the people of Hunza are Ismaili Muslims, followers of His Highness the Aga Khan. The local language is Brushuski. Urdu and English are also understood by most of people.
The Hunza valley is one of huge glaciers and towering mountains, below which are ice-fields, boulder-strewn torrents and frozen streams.
The lower levels are transformed into verdant gardens in summertime. Narrow roads cling to the crumbling sides of forbidding precipices, which present sheer drops of thousands of feet, with many spots subject to dangerously recurrent bombardments of rock fragments from overhanging masses.
The Hunzas live on a seven-mile line at an elevation of five or six hundred feet from the bottom of a deep cleft between two towering mountain ranges. Some of the glaciers in this section of the world are among the largest known outside the Arctic region. The average height of the mountains is 20,000 feet, with some peaks, such as Rakaposhi, which dominates the whole region, soaring as high as 25,000—a spectacle of breath-taking beauty, too steep to hold snow and usually scarfed by clouds.
Because of the scarcity of food, supplies and transport, the region is closed to the general public and special permission is required to enter it. Travellers to the region have thus been few but those who have seen the wonder of Hunza have returned with glowing tales of the charm and buoyant health of this people.
Snow is a constant factor; long winters keep the entire population more or less housebound for several months at a time. Yet in summer the mercury may climb to 95 degrees in the shade.
For months in the winter the landscape is all one drab, monotonous, monochromatic stretch of grey houses, apricot trees, fields and walls, all are of a uniformly dingy and depressing gray, with lifeless, low-hanging clouds.
Then in life miraculously returns and color is reborn in the rich greens and yellows of the crops and trees. Leading the explosion of awakening, the apricot blossoms in spring stud the landscape with a riot of pastel-tinted pink and white, in vast profusion.
However, it’s not all about the landscape and crops; Sir Robert McCarrison and other travelers who have visited the Hunza-land, have all been particularly impressed by its atmosphere of peace and by the splendid health and amiability of its people.
Cancer researchSo vibrant was the health of those Hunzas with whom McCarrison came into contact that he reported never having seen a case of asthenic dyspepsia, or gastric or duodenal ulcer, of appendicitis, mucous colitis or cancer. Cases of over-sensitivity of the abdomen to nerve impressions, fatigue, anxiety or cold were completely unknown.
The prime physiological purpose of the abdomen, as related to the sensation of hunger, constituted their only consciousness of this part of their anatomy.
McCarrison concluded this part of his lecture by stating, “Indeed, their buoyant abdominal health has, since my return to the West, provided a remarkable contrast with the dyspeptic and colonic lamentations of our highly civilized communities.”
In fact the Hunzas are not perfect: there is one tiny aspect of ill-health. They seem to suffer from eye disorders that are due to the lack of stoves and chimneys. A fire is made in the middle of the floor and the smoke escapes from a small hole in the roof. The gathering smudge in the air is a constant irritant to their eyes.
McCarrison was otherwise amazed at the health and immunity record of the Hunzas, who, though surrounded on all sides by peoples afflicted with all kinds of degenerative and pestilential diseases, still did not contract any of them.
Travelers who have lived and worked with the Hunzas are unanimous in praising their general charm, intelligence, and physical stamina.But the Hunzas were not entirely a benign or benevolent people, by our standards. There is a paradox here.
In his Mellon Lecture McCarrison told us, “They (the Hunzas) are unusually fertile and long-lived, and endowed with nervous systems of notable stability.
Their longevity and fertility were, in the case of one of them, matters of such concern to the ruling chief that he took me to task for what he considered to be my ridiculous eagerness to prolong the lives of the ancients of his people, among whom were many of my patients.
The operation for senile cataract appeared to him a waste of my economic opportunities, and he tentatively suggested instead the introduction of some form of lethal chamber, designed to remove from his realms those who by reason of their age and infirmity were no longer of use to the community.”
But there is no questioning the physical fitness and stamina of this race of men. One writer, R. C. F. Schomberg, commented, “It is quite the usual thing for a Hunza man to walk sixty miles at one stretch, up and down the face of precipices to do his business and return direct.” This author passed through the Hunza country many times. He describes how his Hunza servant went after a stolen horse “and kept up the pursuit in drenching rain over mountains for nearly two days with bare feet.”
Schomberg also tells of seeing a Hunza in mid-winter make two holes in an ice pond, repeatedly dive into one and come out at the other, with as much unconcern as a polar bear.
Sir Aurel Stein records a trip of 200 miles made on foot by a Hunza messenger, a journey that imposed the obstacle of crossing a mountain as high as Mont Blanc. The trip was accomplished in seven days and the messenger returned fresh looking and untired, as if it had been a common, everyday occurrence. The word “tired” does not seem to exist in their lexicon.
In the Journal of the Royal Society of Arts for January 2, 1925, Sir Robert McCarrison wrote: “The powers of endurance of these people are extraordinary; to see a man of this race throw off his scanty garments, revealing a figure which would delight the eye of a Rodin, and plunge into a glacier-fed river in the middle of the winter, as easily as most of us would take a tepid bath, is to realize that perfection of physique and great physical endurance are attainable on the simplest of foods, provided these be of the right kind.”
Now we are getting down to the real message.
McCarrison postulated four main reasons in explanation of their fabulous health. I think it both interesting and advisable to give them all in his own words. He said:
1) “Infants are reared as Nature intended them to be reared–at the breast. If this source of nourishment fails, they die; and at least they are spared the future gastrointestinal miseries, which so often have their origin in the first bottle.”
McCarrison is absolutely in tune with (or rather modern holistic and food experts like me are in tune with HIM!), in saying that if anything other than Mother’s colostrum is put in the infant’s mouth at birth, disastrous food intolerances follow, as night follows day.
2) “The people live on the unsophisticated foods of Nature: milk, eggs, grains, fruits and vegetables. I don’t suppose that one in every thousand of them has ever seen a tinned salmon, a chocolate or a patent infant food, nor that as much sugar is imported into their country in a year as is used in a moderately sized hotel of this city in a single day.”
I’m surprised at the dairy but raw milk fans will make a lot of this. But the number one here is, without question, NO SUGAR and not the apricots!
No manufactured food is also crucial. Never never eat anything that doesn’t look the way Nature created it (and never never eat anything that Monsanto and similar biotech companies have had their dirty hands on).
3) “Their religion (Islam) prohibits alcohol, and although they do not always lead in this respect a strictly religious life, nevertheless they are eminently a tee totalling race.”
(Colonel Lorimer says that the Hunzas occasionally drink a little wine at festivals. Alcohol is not forbidden to Ismalai Mohammedans, but in Hunza the distilling of alcohol has been prohibited in recent years, since McCarrison’s time). So a little quiet wine drinking seems to be no big hazard, if everything else is in place.
4) “Their manner of life requires the vigorous exercise of their bodies.”
No surprise here; we know that staying active is an essential part of health and definitely does protect from cancer.ers take note.
This endangered Tortoise was found in a higher elevation of Arizona where it could not survive. It had been kelp as a pet. The shell had been painted at one time. Scars tell this fellow had been bitten by a dog or coyote. Other signs shown on the shell indicate bad nutrition and perhaps lack of sunlight. I took this tortoise 120 miles to the Arizona Herpetological Association for recuperation and filed a report to the Arizona Game and Fish Dept.
This store is one of the few supercenter stores closed in the January 2016 Walmart store closing wave. There were 269 stores closed (154 in the U.S.). Of those closings only 12 were Supercenter stores. The closing wave included mostly smaller stores like Neighborhood market and Walmart Express.
This is an approximately 192,000 square foot Walmart store that opened on August 26, 2009. This is the Hartland, Michigan location I'll post the pictures of the closed Bedford, Ohio Supercenter as well within a couple weeks after finishing the Hartland pictures. These and many of my Bedford pictures are currently floating around elsewhere online.
I believe the big box retailers were overly ambitious when they built up at the intesection of U.S. 23 and Highland Road. Due to the recession, a lot of developement due to happen around this intesection never happened. Target doesn't seem to be doing that well either here. Meijer is the only store that looked like it was doing well in the area. Then again, the Meijer locations around here seem distributed weirdly. There are three Meijer stores on Highland Road within 20 miles of each other yet Fenton (a decent sized city to the north) does not have a Meijer. Both Walmart and Target have stores in Fenton though, so I wonder how many people come from Fenton to go to the Hartland Meijer. I also imagine the grocery section at this Walmart contributed to its closure. When I was at this store, I noticed a bunch of grocery items, on the shelves, that were months expired. I doubt Meijer lets that happen as much. Since Meijer is a Michigan based company, they probably have a more loyal following in the area to begin with.

Image of a girl Holding a platter of vegetables and fruits talking about nutrition information.
Khammouane Province shows Children Under 5 mortality rates of 29/1,000 with high maternal and infant malnutrition. CU5 stunting remains at 30% and over 59% and 62% of CU5 suffer from anemia and sub-clinical vitamin A deficiency, respectively. The province has one of the lowest exclusive breast-feeding rates in Lao PDR and many children fail to consume sufficient and diverse food at each meal: Only 1 in 5 children of 6 to 23 months receive the recommended number of meals and variety of food per day. Geographical remoteness prevents especially ethnic minority women from accessing adequate antenatal care and postnatal care from health centres.
The nutritional content of sprouts is comparable to fruits and vegetables, but exceed them in terms of enzymes and chlorophyll-rich, very important for their anti-anemic action, revitalizing and antitoxic. This makes whole foods that can help address the shortcomings of the modern diet.
This Kmart in Richmond, Indiana was built in 1960 as a Grants department store. I think this was large for a Grants at the time; this store is 93,160 square feet. The store was turned into a Kmart on June 15th, 1978. In 2001, a Kmart Express gas station was added to the store. The Kmart Express was closed in Summer 2017 (either at end of June or in early July).
