Did You Know – Junk Food is as Addicting as Heroin?
Photo by RakkaGreat article about how junk food triggers the brain centers that are excited amongst heroin addicts! The animal studies indicate that rats/mice were willing to walk over electrically charged panel to get to their junk food.
No wonder it is so hard to get off of junk food, processed food, and sugar! No doubt that the food additives such as MSG (aka the “obesity” drug for obese mice studies – that’s what they inject them with to measure variables linked to obesity) …don’t make it easy. And the stuff is cheaper than good food.
They always talk about taxing sodas and sugary juices – I just say that they DON’T tax raw food and vegetables. So you’re rewarded by making a great choice, not penalized for making a poor health choice.
By the way, did you know that sugar is metabolized in the liver and gut in practically the identical manner that alcohol is?
