CALLING BS ON THIS FOOD MANTRA: “IF YOU CAN’T PRONOUNCE IT THEN YOU SHOULDN’T EAT IT”

“IF YOU CAN’T PRONOUNCE IT THEN YOU SHOULDN’T EAT IT”

⬆️THIS IS A BUNCH OF BOLOGNA (🙃😉) 

Allow me to explain⬇️

If people actually threw away all the foods with ingredients they couldn’t pronounce then I have a bad feeling that the world would be more nutrient deficient.

I mean...just consider this...

potAYtoe poTOToe
toMAYtoe toMOTtoe
Açaí ACEYE ACEYEIEIEIEIE
Cacao cackcow cockow cohco cacayoh
Pecan peeCAAN peeCON

Okay but even more real examples:

Pyridoxine (really just vitami b6)
Cyanocobalamin (vitamin b12)
Thiamine mononitrate (vitamin b1)
Dihydrogen Monoxide (water)
Silicon dioxide (often natural in pantry foods or just put in a baggy and doesn’t ruin food lol)
docosahexaenoic acid (unsaturated fatty acid which technically makes it a health need)

(THE LIST GOES ON!!)

And to be honest, your ability to pronounce something doesn’t directly correlate to if you ‘should’ or ‘should not’ eat it.
Otherwise, you could study the dictionary all day and never have issues with food? Ya, I pronounce broccoli just fine and that tree ain’t a friend of mine🤷🏻‍♀️

Plus, That’s like saying your ability to understand quantum physics will determine how much the universe responds to your desires.

The result occurs regardless.

If food fuels your body with nutrients and makes YOU feel good, your gut function, and your body healthy then eat more of it!

If food doesn’t do those things, but you still enjoy the taste, maybe just don’t eat as much of it.

Fuel your body with the energy of LOVE with every bite you take and watch as your:

•decisions shift
•your cravings change
•the emotional side of guilt or shame or pride just disappears

Because it’s no longer about MORALITY, it’s about the REALITY of what YOUR soul’s vessel requires to have the BEST human experience.

Nourish in love, grow in love, simple as that, you KNOW what is best for your body, time to honor that knowledge and fuel yourself with it, WITHOUT restriction or guilt, and instead from the motivation and desire to provide for your soul’s GREATEST asset, your body!

Just another #lovenudge for your day!
