Alkaline Foods That Prevent Obesity, Cancer, And Heart Disease

Joanna P October 31, 2021

Excess body weight and obesity have become one of the most prevalent problems in modern society. The National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys (NHANES) (2009-2010) showed that: “ approximately 69% of adults are overweight or obese, with more than 78 million adult Americans considered obese. Children have become heavier as well. In the past 30 years, the prevalence of childhood obesity has more than doubled among children ages 2 to 5, has nearly tripled among youth ages 6 to 11, and has more than tripled among adolescents ages 12 to 19. “

According to Dr. David Ludwig, an endocrinologist, and professor of nutrition at Harvard School of Public Health,

The long-term success rate of obesity treatment is abysmal, which is why every year we have new diets and weight-loss treatments, along with a billion-dollar weight-loss industry.

Hunger is very powerful and very primal. You can ignore it for a few days or weeks or months, or trick it by drinking lots of water or going for a walk, but it’s very hard to ignore it permanently.
