The modern food system is making you sick

The Heal Deal Podcast with Dr. Leona

Our bodies need real food to function. The purpose of food is to nourish our bodies in order to sustain growth, repair and vital processes, and to furnish energy. But now, we are in a state where we eat more harmful chemicals than we eat nutritious food and it is making us sick.

Seventy percent of deaths are caused by chronic disease, and these rates will continue to grow if the primary cause is not effectively addressed, and that primary cause is our modern food system.

People are fed by the food industry, which pays no attention to health, and are healed by the health industry, which pays no attention to food.

– Wendell Berry
