Organic food is literally designed for you to eat. Processed food turns your body into crap which will degrade into the ground sooner rather than later.

Processed food turns your body into crap which will degrade into the ground sooner rather than later.

Tell that to Donald Trump. Some of the unhealthiest and most mentally unwell people live the longest.

Except he has doctors that most of us will never afford. They probably pump vitamins and young girls blood into his veins.

Also “processed” can often mean “making it fucking edible.”

Wheat is a fine example, because while it is indeed edible raw, cooking or milling wheat makes it much more digestible.

Some aspects of processed foods are just removing a step our body has to do to digest it (which requires energy).

When you digest say, processed sugar, your body has to do almost nothing to digest it compared to complex carbohydrates.

It’s a short-cut for your body to expend less energy while getting energy.

(but that’s not always a good thing)

Old joke:

Do you know what they used to call Organic Food in the 1930’s?

spoiler

food

Would need to be closer to early 1800’s because canning foods became popular around then. Canning included a lot of processing.

There’s also the issue of pesticides which got their kickoff in the late 19th century and were in full swing use by the 1920’s.

We didn’t get engineered edible oils (like canola) until the 1930s. Things didn’t get bad until engineered food

That’s literally ignoring pesticides which came first. My grandfather got Parkinsons from exposure to pesticides. Frankly, I probably will, too.

this would have made sense… god, more than 50 thousand years ago, since even hunter-gatherers would have been going around selectively spreading only seeds from plants they liked.
Our bodies were designed to eat the organic food.

Our bodies were designed…

Ok buddy

Shittily designed yes, but thats the nature of evolution. Now if you’d excuse me, I’m going to tear a ligament in my finger my moving it in a weird way.
Only if you excuse me for dislocating my shoulder because I slept with the wrong pillow
