Everything in Moderation…
Everything in “moderation” bothers me.
Here is why…
We are sicker than ever before.
- 77% of population is unfit for military duty
- 75% of population is overweight or obese
- 75% of obese children have a vascular age of a 45 year old
- 30% of population is pre-diabetic
- 18% of population has non-alcoholic fatty liver disease
- 79% increase in cancer in the last 30 years (18-49)
- 1 in 10 individuals have an autoimmune disorder
The list could go on…
Rates of these conditions were close to 0% about 50 years ago…
So, everything in moderation is absolute bullsh*t. There is always something going on. Celebrations, holidays, bbqs, athletic events…. there is always an opportunity to eat processed/ultra processed food. But, we have never been sicker. So, something isn’t working.
See video below from Dr. Casey Means, who wrote Good Energy (2023) and her thoughts on moderation.
In Strength,
