THE “MEALS MUST BE BALANCED”
MYTH
This idea springs from the “four food groups” style of nutrition taught
in grade school. Problem is, it is taught seriously rather than as
part of the fairy tale sessions right before kids curl up with their
blankies for afternoon naps.
A Big Mac is a four food group meal...meat (fried burger), veggie/
fruit (lettuce, pickle, onion), dairy (processed cheese), and grain (white
flour bun). Optimal nutrition Doubtful.
“Balance,” “food groups” and “food pyramids” all complexify what is
simple. Natural foods, fed in variety, create optimal nutrition, not slogans
or words meant primarily to make everyone dependent upon processed
foods. How do I know Because that’s what creatures ate for eons
prior to nutritionists, dietitians and regulators. They did fine or no creature
would now exist. Creatures cannot survive prior to their proper, optimal
food.
Additionally, research has proven that not all nutrients need be eaten
at the same meal or even on the same day. You do not even need all of the
essential nutrients at every meal or every day for optimal health. 1 In fact,
no nutrients at all for a time (fasting) has many health benefits. 2
