The Truth about Junk Food & Fast Food = Clinical Nutrition

Can junk food and fast foods make you physically and mentally sick?
Whole foods and nutrient dense foods build a healthy body.
McDonalds, Burger King, Wendy's and other fast food places have high carbohydrate, high fat products with low vitamin and mineral content.
Junk food addiction equals a slow death; weight problems, obesity, low energy, emotional problems, etc.

"It doesn't do you a lot of good and it does you a lot of harm". Words of wisdom, my friend. Words of wisdom.

Thank you, for the honest, to the point, FACTS you have just posted!

I personally have lost 109 lbs and my Crones Disease is in remission, do to JUST changing my foods to natural and organic with regular exercise! I’m 22 years old, I have my whole life ahead of me and this is the only body I will ever have!

Food controls your well being in every aspect, if more people realized this or believed it more, our country would be very different, in all the right ways!

I've basically cut out all junk food this year because I felt unhealthy and was getting fat. I don't want to die of a heart attack. Great video!

[bathinapes]

I feel like you're lecturing the viewer somewhat, and I LOVE it. People need to hear the truth. Everybody is a winner, compensate 1 part bad with 1 part good. NO! I'm trying to get away from junk food right now. I don't consider myself fat (13-15% bf?) but why would I wait with making healthy choices until I am in fact fat. Love the vids, THANK YOU for the advice.

[coolbrett]

this opened up my eyes so much. "You are what you eat" - So true. If you want to be healthy you have to eat healthy foods. That is your fuel for a good efficient body. Junk food is full of crap so you're putting that crap in your body. I used to think I could get away with having junk food often as long as I just dont upsize it or have lots of it at once, but truth is junk food is ALWAYS bad. The only reason you should be having it once in a while is for a treat only, not because its ok

[Cerulean]

LOL When he first said, "Get that junk food out of your mounth" I had a huge slice of pizza in my mouth. I felt like I was caught doing something horrible.

[stitchergary]

I agree 100%.... Haven't eaten in a fast food place in over a year...Haven't had a soft drink, regular or diet, in about 1 1/2 this guy is

The tone of this video is similar to a teacher giving a group of students a lecture about why you shouldn't do drugs.

[aleterra]

It's up to you. You can always take your healthy food in a tupperware.

[BWVan]

Amen! Until I owned my own choices, I couldn't control my eating. When I took responsibility for my own actions, I was able to do better almost immediately.

@Madnam well, it did to me. I used to binge eat, and was addicted to food my whole life. I was on the border of morbid obesity. when I understood you are what you eat, and switched from processed food to whole raw food my life changed. I have lost 70 pounds and have energy. I no longer have depression, and have not taken a single drug/ diet pill to help do it. Videos like this and Natalie´s changed my life and I never paid a nutritionist, so yeah a video like this can cure junk food addiction.

Best video of health care on YouTube. Thanks doc.

[ice]

It is a real wonderful explanation about the danger of junk and fast foods..

I enjoyed this video; thank you. I agree with you 100%. Although, I don't feel complaining and change are mutually exclusive. Sometimes it is healthy to complain in order to express your feelings, dissatisfaction and resentment towards an industry that has misinformed and mislead so many for so long.

[saturateu]

there is a great message here. the delivery is good. the comparisons were confusing. referring to all fast food as junk food is confusing.

[Sammy]

This is one of the best videos on Junk food I've ever seen, Excellent

[sandraruzzano]

Thank you for all the very helpful information and advice!  Your sharing is very much appreciated!! I have been away from the junk food and eating healthy since mid November 2013.  I am down 21 lbs. and getting healthier every day! Thank you again Dr.Bellonzi!!

A lot of excuses that parents make is that they don't have time to cook, or don't have time to make a meal...so they feed themselves junk food, and the scary part is they're feeding their own children junk food.

My family did the same thing to me when I was a kid...they didn't cook a lot of healthy meals, and I suffered depression, fatigue, and anxiety. Now I'm eating healthier than my family...sad thing is my family won't listen to me when it comes to eating healthy food.

He's right about controlling minor symptoms with diet, there are many sites which tell you what foods may be causing bad health, once had exema for years (not a one off) so i tidied up my diet and it went away more or less, i never bothered to systimaticaly limit my diet to fing out what food was the dirct cause though.
