Summary

In this podcast, we’re going to talk about 4 common ingredients found in 99% of all junk foods that can shorten your life. You won’t understand which foods to avoid until you know the ingredients.


Hydroxypropyl distarch phosphate, interesterified soybean oil, hydrolyzed corn oil, maltodextrin, dextrose, and dextrin are chemical names for common junk food ingredients. Companies use these names to cause confusion.


It’s important to look beyond nutrition facts and read the ingredients because not all calories are the same. Calories from high fructose corn syrup are not the same as fructose from fruit. Synthetic starches differ from the starch found in vegetables, and there’s a big difference between cane sugar and synthetic sugars like glucose syrup.


Check the ingredient list and avoid these foods!


1. Sugar

2. Starches

3. Seed oils

4. Refined proteins


Soy protein isolates and A1 beta-casein create inflammation and should be avoided. You’ll also want to avoid wheat gluten.


Print out my convenient cutout card to keep in your wallet so you’ll know which foods to avoid on the go!

store and we would teach them what to eat and I personally had an aha moment.

An average person does not recognize the four ingredients in 99.999% of all junk foods. The whole label on

0:41.0

foods is just completely confusing and no one can make any sense out of it.

0:45.7

You're never going to understand what the food is unless you understand the ingredients in the food.

0:51.5

It would be very similar to looking at a label in a different

0:53.8

language, right? I mean it just does not communicate because every single word in

0:58.1

there is just foreign to you. Now I just want to read off some of these ingredients.
