If you have a weight problem, you aren’t alone. Fully two thirds of adult Americans share your same condition. Many of us struggle on a daily basis with this very issue.

And it’s not just the fat that’s the problem. It’s all the other junk that comes with it, from high blood pressure, to cholesterol, and all kinds of other life-shortening problems.

Why are so many Americans overweight? It wasn’t always like this. In the old days, most people were generally slim. In order to understand why so many more people are overweight now compared to then, we need to look at two major issues.

In the old days, most people weren’t lucky enough to sit at a desk all day. Work meant physical labor. Eight hours a day, five days a week.

Those of us that go to the gym, even several times a week, don’t work out nearly as hard as people used to do for a living. We just don’t get the exercise that people did in the old days.

The second, and much more complicated reason is that the food we eat today is vastly different than the food we ate a hundred years ago. Before, most of the food people at was very fresh, and grown locally.

Contrast that to now, when most everything you can find to eat has been processed, chemically altered, and filled with preservatives. This can’t be good for us.

The biggest problem with this is that it can be darn near impossible to find something to eat that isn’t laced with chemicals. Even if you do find a natural grocer with locally grown, preservative free food, you’d have to take out a loan to afford it.

All the food you can find today, no matter where you get it, is likely filled with preservatives and chemicals.

It’s no surprise then, why we are becoming a nation of obese people. We are kept at desks, fed unhealthy food, and then shamed for being overweight. It’s not our fault.

When you consider that it can be hard to find the time, and the motivation to exercise, and nearly impossible to find the most healthy food to eat, it becomes clear there is something else going on.

Only when you can discover how to eat the right foods, that are free from preservatives and chemicals, can you quickly lose weight and stop paying your hard earned money to those big companies that want to keep you fat.
