The Dark Side of Fast Food Industry

The Dark Side of Fast Food Industry

In this podcast, we’re going to talk about some of the fast food industry’s secrets that can keep you wanting more but are detrimental to your health.


The average American consumes between 2 and 3 fast food meals per week, which adds up to 150 to 200 meals per year. Even if you order value meals or make choices from the dollar menu, most people spend around $1500 to $2000 per year on fast food.


The fast food industry uses all sorts of marketing tactics to keep you wanting more. Mcdonald’s uses yellow and red, which stimulate impulsivity, increase serotonin, and even encourage you to eat faster.


The fast food industry also targets children, hence the playgrounds and happy meals at fast food restaurants. They use upselling techniques by offering fries or a combo, which can increase profits by more than 22%. Prices containing the number 9 can increase the likelihood of making a purchase!


McDonald’s is one of the largest beef buyers in the U.S. They use low-quality factory-farmed beef fattened with grains and treated with antibiotics.


Fast food meals also contain poor-quality ingredients like high fructose corn syrup, corn oil, soy oil, corn flour, corn starch, and fillers like maltodextrin. These ingredients are highly processed and highly inflammatory. Although fast food may seem cheaper and more convenient in the short term, it can cause massive health consequences in the long term.

Sugar Is Rewiring Your Brain (Here’s How to Escape)

I gave up sugar a while ago and wish I had done it even sooner. Before, I dealt with low energy, brain fog, and restless nights. Now I sleep deeply, feel energized, and enjoy clear mental clarity after quitting sugar. Sugar also depletes vitamin B1, critical for optimal brain health, nerve function, and autonomous nervous system regulation. No wonder a high-sugar diet causes fatigue, anxiety, poor focus, and long-term damage to brain health.Just three weeks without sugar gives your brain a reset, helping reduce cravings and breaking the cycle of sugar addiction. Quitting sugar doesn’t just benefit the brain! It also supports your organs, brightens skin, protects vision, strengthens the heart, promotes metabolic balance, and makes it easier to maintain a healthy weight.
