Sometimes when I'm shopping, I wonder what products should I avoid buying/using?
So, I figured this is the best place to ask this question and we could get a list going.
I could edit this post making a list of the products everyone posts in comments. Are there any suggestions on a better way to do this?
What if I did another post to make a list of all the GOOD products that are safe/ beneficial for us to use?
There is another approach to healthy eating which you might want to explore. It's called intermittent fasting. Details here -> https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/intermittent-fasting-what-is-it-and-how-does-it-work
I discovered this by accident about 10 years ago while living on my own and going through a nasty divorce. In order to make my life easier, I decided to eat the same diet every day at the same time. Minimal carbs. Eggs for breakfast. Modest lunch. No junk food. Chicken stir-fry with no rice and lots of veggies for dinner. No late-night snacks. I also started jogging in the evenings. Within a month, I started losing excess weight at a blistering pace. Not long afterwards, my weight had dropped from 240 to 170 and I was healthier and more fit than ever. I initially thought it was my running, but then I learned about intermittent fasting from a friend who went from 300 lbs to 180 lbs using this method. When I questioned him about whether fasting was healthy, he provided me with a reference. It was then that I realized that I had independently discovered intermittent fasting. I hope this is helpful.
