Foods that need warning labels

Gen Z calls Diet Coke the fridge cigarette. Nobody drinks it for nutrition. It's a ritual, a pause, a reward. That's like a cigarette. So here are 3 products from my fridge and likely your fridge too, and the numbers that should be put as warning labels on them. Diet Coke, 0 calories, right? Well, a World Health Organization study in 2023 reviewed 283 studies on non-sugar sweeteners. Its conclusion? Don't use them to control your weight. They showed no long-term benefits for reducing body fat. Then there's the Waistline Study. Researchers in San Antonio followed nearly 750 adults 65 and older for 9 years. People who never drank diet soda gained 0.8 inches around their waist. Occasional drinkers, 1.8 inches. And the daily drinkers, 3.2 inches. Daily diet soda was linked to almost 4 times the waist gain. But that's not all. Here's the other sinister product, the protein bar. We love protein bars, but in 2018, researchers analyzed 56 protein bars and compared them to one original glazed Krispy Kreme donut as a comparison. Get this, donut had 12.6 grams of sugar. 10 of the protein bars had more. The worst had 19.5 grams. The donut had 3.9 grams of saturated fat. The protein bars, the worst of it had 9.9 grams, more than double the donut. Now, here's the number that matters most. In 2019, scientists at the US National Institute of Health kept 20 adults in the clinic for 28 days, 2 weeks on processed food, 2 weeks on real food, like, like blueberries. On processed food, they ate 500 more calories a day. They ate faster. They gained 2 pounds. On the real food, they lost 2 pounds. Same nutrition numbers, opposite result. So this was never about calories. Here's why we get this wrong. Food companies can't be trusted. But what you can trust are scientists, nutritional researchers, and I've been working with one of the best. Eric Edmeades taught me why processed foods confuse your hunger signals. He teaches that there are 6 kinds of hunger, and from the inside, they feel identical. So how do we solve this? We need to learn how to unwire the insidious behaviors that food companies have caused us to add to our daily regimen. And one of the best ways to do this is through a program that I went through called WildFit with a guy called Eric Achmedis. This is him getting a medal from the Canadian Senate for his work in helping people unhook themselves from bad food and help them get their health together. Over 800 case studies from the time we launched this product on our platform. Now we're doing a free masterclass with Eric where he's gonna be teaching you the behavioral psychology that food companies use and how to eradicate these practices from your daily habits. Just from this masterclass alone, people see a profound epiphany in what they're eating and how it impacts their body.
