SNBC Health Report: a notable health professional is asking people to look at their diet and compare it to diets of ancient times. A recent article from Mercola.com weighs the differences between the diet of most humans’ centuries ago and the modern world we live in. According to the article, the author Dr. Joseph Mercola, asks what the difference is between the way humans live today and how most have lived throughout history. Mercola points out various health issues as his reasoning for debating the difference between then and now. He believes the main difference starts with the business of food. The food industry is mainly based on profit. Getting food into the hands of consumers as quickly and in some cases as cheap as possible. This business of food has caused some industry leaders to remove important factors such as removing some nutritional values in food to cut costs and make food last longer on shelves. The doctor also notes that some things such as bone broths, a diet without saturated fats, and consuming clean baked goods, were part of what helped the human body stay energized and healthy. Dr. Mercola advises limiting processed foods as much as possible when possible and getting back to eating whole foods, increasing outdoor activity, and turning off or limiting the use or electronic devices when possible.
