If I Could Go Back In Time

If I could go back four years with the knowledge of the food industry, I would try to change my eating habits just a tad. The one thing I would want to change is the amount of healthy and unhealthy fast food I consume weekly. After researching about how the food industry produces their products it has showed me the possible ways bacteria and pesticides could be put in the foods we eat. Another thing is how the food we eat is not produced fresh as much anymore. Most of the animals are being pumped with hormones so they grow bigger and faster which results in younger kids growing faster than before. When I was a young gal there were smaller portions of food and most of the food was not pumped with pesticides or processed like how they are now.  Luckily my parents did not allow me to consume fast food all the time and they kept me busy in sports which kept me on my feet and healthy. Currently now young kids are eating fast food constantly and are not exercising as much, resulting to the obesity rate rising daily. This is what worries me because if foods are being processed and pumped with hormones now imagine what the food humans consume will be like years from now. All in all, I think the one thing i need to focus on is the amount of junk food I eat especially with sports and extra activities I do. Healthy food creates a happy and healthy body!
