Healthy Eating: Now it is a Mental Illness

The Guardian has an interesting post on the Healthy Eating Disorder.

Yes, eating healthy is now a disorder.

Ok, it may be true.

I do know some people who obsess over eating certain foods and supplements to the point that they feel they will live twice as long as those who do not. Yes they get crazy about healthy eating.

I personally plan on living forever. So far so good.

Where does that leave everyone else who are just trying to do the right thing.

Why do we as a society call it junk food? Why do unwanted things end up in the junk yard. Why do we throw away junk but eat junk food.

Now the answer is obvious. Unless you eat junk, you may be suffering from a mental illness.

Ooops, did I say that out loud.

And there is a sound scientific basis for thinking this way.
Consider: a Hostes Twinke has enough preservatives in it to have a shelf life of 7 years, I always thought that if you eat enough you could be preserved alive even if you die.

Good health to you.
