Are Your Food Choices Clogging Your Arteries? By Julie Wanner Rossetti At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

I often think about the quality of gasoline that we put in our automobiles. We always make sure the exact gasoline matches properly with our vehicle. After all, what would happen if you put leaded gas in an unleaded vehicle? Well, your vehicle would have some clog problems. You probably did not even have to ask your local gas station attendant for the answer. If you do not keep, your vehicle well maintained it could fall apart.

Recently, I noticed an SUV coated with so much dirt I really do not know how the driver could even see out the windows. I wonder when the last time this vehicle had a good shower! The outside of this vehicle looked so neglected; I pondered the thought that the engine could possibly have some challenges as well. Have you ever seen those vehicles that are barely running? I am just praying they make it across the busy intersection.

This holiday weekend I noticed there were a few vehicles that did not have enough fuel to make it to the next freeway exit. In other words, these vehicles were on empty. No fuel means you might as well forget about your travel plans. Was the driver just not paying any attention to the fuel gauge or was it broken? There is a red line on the gauge which is a “warning” to the driver they are almost on empty. Well, at least you can replace your vehicle if it falls apart or the engine explodes.

Lately in the news there has been a lot of talk about “fighting obesity” because of all of the trans-fatty acids. A trans-fatty acid is solid fat produced by heating liquid vegetable oils. This method of partial hydrogenation changes the unsaturated to saturated ones. Did you consume any trans fats today? They are on your food label under “nutrition Facts.” Maybe you just drove through a fast-food drive-thru and filled up with a fuel you have no idea what it contains. It tasted good while you ate in your vehicle. You may get a little heartburn later, but there is a pill for that too! In addition, you have been filling up on this kind of “food fuel” for years. You argue that it is not only fast but it saves you so much time.

I know you think your ‘low energy’ is from getting older. After all, everyone tells you that. Besides, you state that you do get a lot of variety of foods since you go to more than one fast-food drive thru. Could there be trans fats in this “food fuel?” Have you had a talk with your arteries? They cannot speak since sticky, gooey fat has clogged them. Would you be able to speak if hard fat was choking you? I think it is time people wake up and realize filling up on the wrong “food fuel” is going to cause an explosion of their arteries. This explosion is either a heart attack or stroke. You cannot just return your body back to the manufacturer and request a new one. Take care of the one you have by filling up on healthy “food fuel!”
