Why are unhealthy people obsessed with the idea of eating healthy?

Answer 1

People are obsessed with health because it is something that can determine you life. When you have poor regard to health, then you may have poor regard to life as well. It is something that can easily be spent or removed or damaged so it is of high concern to most people.

Answer 2

People are eating processed foods which are so far away from the natural product that they hardly qualify as foods.

They are eating too much refined carbohydrate (processed sugar and starch). They don't need this in the diet AT ALL. Eliminating refined carbs is also the key to weight loss and possibly even improvement in a diabetic condition.

They should be eating a diet with plenty of fresh fruits and vegetables. It's known that this kind of diet is alkalizing, not acidifying, and this is felt to give some protection against cancer and other diseases.

They should be cooking meals at home, not eating out, so that they know what's in the food they're eating. This also saves money.

For protein they should be eating small portions of lean grass-fed beef, free-range chicken, ocean fish (not fish farm grown), and raw nuts such as walnuts or almonds (google "soaking nuts" to know about the healthiest way to eat nuts).

They should be drinking the best water they can afford, or putting a filter on their kitchen tap so that they're not consuming chlorine, fluoride or any of the drug residuals that we now know are floating around in our water supply.

They should stop consuming soft drinks, which contain high-fructose corn syrup (which is known to be sometimes contaminated with Mercury and is only used because it is dirt cheap) and benzoic acid (which, when combined with vitamin C turns into the poison, benzene). These drinks are dangerous.

They should look at the label of every personal care product they use. Do people want Coumarin (a rat poison) in their soap? How about aluminum? Yup, the most popular soaps have these substances in them. So do deodorants. So do laundry care products. People should look for an alternative to fluoridated toothpaste, which is poisonous (look at the warning on the label). Dental caries happen because of nutritional deficiencies. People should use the simplest, most additive-free products they can find.

People should assume nothing when it comes to products they buy. In these times we have to work extra hard to protect our health. Rates of cancer, Diabetes and Heart disease have gone through the roof, and in my opinion this is due to poor diet and toxins in our environment.
