Processed Food Versus Homemade Food

The job description for caring for young children should include food preparation as a component. Every cell of children’s bodies is made from what they eat. Although food processors would like us to believe processed food is nutritious–it’s not. They add “protein” and vitamins to make it look nutritious, but in reality, the added protein is often in the form of soy protein isolate or genetically modified dried milk powder, which don’t have the health benefits of fresh, real protein. And the healthier, natural oils, which perish easily
are absent–replaced with oils won’t ever go rancid. These oils aren’t healthy for our bodies or our brain. What is found in homemade versions is healthier no matter what the label says, because the home cook doesn’t have access to the 10,000 chemicals found today in
processed food.
