For starters, synthetic biology \u2014 meat and dairy alternatives \u2014 is junk food on steroids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They\u2019re all highly processed, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/takecontrol.substack.com\/p\/health-effects-of-processed-foods\">ultra-processed foods<\/a>&nbsp;are associated with increased calorie intake,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nih.gov\/news-events\/news-releases\/nih-study-finds-heavily-processed-foods-cause-overeating-weight-gain\">weight gain<\/a>&nbsp;and chronic disease, including&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ctvnews.ca\/health\/cognitive-decline-linked-to-ultraprocessed-food-study-finds-1.6010018\">cognitive decline<\/a>, while simultaneously promoting malnutrition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the primary reasons why processed food is so bad for health is because it\u2019s loaded with the omega-6 fat linoleic acid (LA) mostly from industrial seed oils.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s important to realize that plant-based meat alternatives do not contain animal fats. All the fat comes from industrial seed oils like soy and canola oil, which are prescriptions for metabolic disaster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sure, processed foods also contain high amounts of sugar, typically in the form of high fructose corn syrup, but as bad as that is, it doesn\u2019t even come close to the damage caused by high LA intake, which acts as a metabolic poison. What\u2019s worse, the LA stays put in your cell membranes for up to seven years, while sugar is rapidly used up and eliminated once you stop putting more in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To be clear, LA is the one fat you absolutely want to minimize in your diet, not eat more of! Anything above 10 grams a day is likely to cause ill health, and most Americans consume far more than that already.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To learn more about the harmful mechanisms of LA, see&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/takecontrol.substack.com\/p\/linoleic-acid-health-effects\">\u201cHow Linoleic Acid Wrecks Your Health.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/1-seed-nuts-linoleic-acid-chart.jpg\" alt=\"seed nuts linoleic acid chart\" class=\"wp-image-188667\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-cooking-oils-average-la-value.jpg\" alt=\"cooking oils average la value\" class=\"wp-image-188673\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In my view, replacing real meat with fake substitutes, regardless of how they\u2019re made, is going to further exacerbate the rapid decline in health the population has already experienced.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This week I will be posting a report on the record-breaking decrease in&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/08\/31\/health\/life-expectancy-covid-pandemic.html\">U.S. life expectancy<\/a>&nbsp;that just had its sharpest two-year decline in 100 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply put, there are no benefits in replacing real meat with fake substitutes. Not for the environment, climate, human nutrition or animal welfare. It\u2019s only hazards and false claims. So, if you value your health, you would do well to stay clear of all meat substitutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why insect protein is a bad idea<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alright, but what about insect protein?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to The Great Reset minions,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2021\/07\/why-we-need-to-give-insects-the-role-they-deserve-in-our-food-systems\/\">insect protein<\/a>&nbsp;is as good as it gets, nutrition-wise, and will protect the planet by eliminating the need for livestock, cutting down on agricultural land use and reversing climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not so fast. Perhaps someone didn\u2019t think this through.

As it turns out, insects contain&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5680136\/\">chitin<\/a>, a highly inflammatory and allergy-inducing compound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some human tissues do have a chitin-destroying enzyme called chitinase, but it doesn\u2019t always work well, in which case the chitin may trigger an immune response, allergic reactions and inflammation, as it increases inflammatory cytokine production.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.edibleinsects.com\/what-is-chitin\/\">Edibleinsects.com<\/a>, however, launched in 2022, describes chitin as \u201ca valuable prebiotic fiber\u201d with antifungal, antiviral and antibacterial properties, and eatcrickster.com claims it can reduce inflammation. A number of studies published in recent years have made similar claims.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I for one would recommend proceeding with great caution, as the food industry has, for decades, claimed that processed foods and artificial ingredients are safe and effective, just like the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender_category\/covid\/\">COVID-19<\/a>&nbsp;jab, even when ample research shows otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Food compass designed to destroy nutrition guidance<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A perfect example of how unhealthy, ultra-processed foods are being touted as superior to unprocessed animal foods is the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy\u2019s&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sites.tufts.edu\/foodcompass\/\">Food Compass<\/a>, unveiled in late 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/now.tufts.edu\/2021\/10\/14\/ranking-healthfulness-foods-first-worst\">Food Compass<\/a>&nbsp;was created to:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Encourage the food industry to develop healthier foods.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provide food purchasing incentives for employees through worksite wellness, health care, and nutrition assistance programs.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supply the science for local and national policies.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enable restaurants and school, business, and hospital cafeterias to present healthier food options.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inform agricultural trade policy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guide institutional and individual investors on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) investment decisions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The problem is that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/defender\/great-reset-food-compass-cola\/\">Food Compass<\/a>&nbsp;leads people away from wholesome natural foods, and toward processed junk foods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, Frosted Mini Wheats scores three times higher than ground beef (87 out of 100, compared to 26), as illustrated in the graph below, posted on Twitter by independent journalist&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/bigfatsurprise\/status\/1548730633953968128\/photo\/1\">Nina Teicholz<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\" id=\"attachment_188679\"><a href=\"https:\/\/osf.io\/preprints\/socarxiv\/eu578\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-food-compass.jpg\" alt=\"food compass\" class=\"wp-image-188679\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Credit: Flaminia Ortenzi, Marit Kolby, Mark Lawrence, Frederic Leroy, Stella Nordhagen, Stuart Phillips, Stephan van Vliet and Ty Beal.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Other high-scoring, highly processed foods include chocolate-covered almonds, Honey Nut Cheerios, fries, egg substitute fried in vegetable oil and Lucky Charms.

It is plausible that this is caused by UPFs poor nutrient composition and degraded food matrices \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA detailed understanding of the environmental impacts of UPFs is key to informing food policies and dietary guidance. This is pertinent because UPFs are frequently excluded from global and national guidelines and policy documents on sustainable food systems and diets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cFor example, the EAT-Lancet report, one of the most recognized reference documents on sustainable diets, does not mention UPFs, nor does the major FAO report on the biodiversity impacts of food and agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe few policy activities which consider the environmental sustainability of UPFs are based on conceptual evidence, rather than evidence from empirical studies \u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cConclusion: Ultra-processed foods are fundamentally unsustainable products; they have been associated with poor health and social outcomes and require finite environmental resources for their production \u2026 UPFs are responsible for significant diet-related energy, [and] greenhouse gas emissions \u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The real take-home here is that the environmental impacts of ultra-processed foods are avoidable because these kinds of foods are not nutritionally essential.

It\u2019s highly instructive, however, and right on the money, in terms of being factually correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/childrenshealthdefense.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/4-world-economic-forum-diets-2030.jpg\" alt=\"world economic forum diets 2030\" class=\"wp-image-188685\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This is indeed the kind of diet the WEF and its Great Reset allies want us to adopt, whether we want to or not. Even the most questionable inclusion of \u201cupcycled citizens\u201d is not wrong, as this cabal is, in fact, promoting the idea that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/takecontrol.substack.com\/p\/green-agenda\">cannibalism<\/a>&nbsp;is, or can be, acceptable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For solutions to this rapidly approaching dystopian future, review my previous article,<a href=\"https:\/\/takecontrol.substack.com\/p\/food-shortages-price-increases\">&nbsp;\u201cWhy Food Prices Are Expected to Skyrocket,\u201d<\/a>&nbsp;and Corey Lynn\u2019s article&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.coreysdigs.com\/solutions\/finding-sources-of-fresh-food\/\">\u201cFinding Sources of Fresh Food.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of the answer is to grow your own food, to the best of your ability. Another part is to support local growers by buying their produce, or else they\u2019ll get pushed out. Starting local co-ops and community gardens can also go a long way toward creating food security in the long term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, we also have to reject globalist solutions like fake meat, gene-edited beef, GMO foods, insect-based foods and all the rest of it. It\u2019s time to recognize that none of their solutions are for our benefit. They\u2019re for our detriment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The WEF has declared that by 2030, you will own nothing, and they really do mean it. They will take everything from us, including the right to grow our own food and to eat natural unprocessed, unadulterated foods \u2014 if we let them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Originally published by&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.mercola.com\/\">Mercola<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Posts of matilda-macelroy.com:<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/matilda-macelroy.com\/wp\/2023\/06\/27\/the-chemtrail-mystery\/\">The Chemtrail mystery?<\/a><br><a href=\"https:\/\/matilda-macelroy.com\/wp\/2023\/07\/05\/e-u-parliament\/\">E.U.
