The end of five-a-day!

Well. so much for the five-a-day campaign. See here

It's a flop and its now official. The UK doesn't want to eat fruit and vegetables. We all know how cheap they are to buy; we all know how good for us they are; we dont need to be told that we are eating the wrong kinds of food. We know that but we go on eating it anyway, at least some of us do. The food addicts do.

If the government want to really tackle obesity they will have to take a look at the causes of obesity.

Food addicts end up eating nothing but their favourite "food fix" just like a drunk will live on alcohol and not eat any food. They get fat and/or unhealthy.

Obesity is just one of the signs of self induced malnutrition. Its caused by food addiction. That is the missing link. ( sigh.)

WHY DOES NO ONE TALK ABOUT THIS ON THE MEDIA???? An intelligent debate is needed.

I'll try an email to the journalist at the Guardian who published that piece. We must keep trying. If you are a food addict, talk about it to anyone who will listen. There wont be many, and if you cant find anyone who will believe you, you can always post a comment here!
