Today we’re going to talk about what could happen if you stopped eating fast food for one week. Cutting down carbs and sugar can have many benefits. But, there are other things in fast food that may be beneficial to eliminate from your diet.
Processed foods can be very low in nutrients. Foods void of nutrition can actually deplete your reserves of vitamins and minerals, which can lead to potential health issues. When you consume empty calories or refined foods, you also don’t get any phytonutrients. Now, you can have a situation where you don’t have any antioxidants and a lot of oxidation. Oxidation can create damage in the body, and phytonutrients do a lot to help protect your body.
There are also a lot of food additives in fast food, which can include: • Preservatives • Colors • Things that enhance the texture • Sweeteners • Things that enhance the flavors (like MSG)Â
What I think may happen if you cut out fast food for one week: • Your hunger will go away • Your cravings will go away • Your fluid retention will improve • Your mind will be clear • Your body will feel clean (no brain fog and more energy) • You’ll lose fatÂ
