My new "health kick"

Todays evil: Thiamin Mononitrate

Many items in your refrigerator and pantry contain this:

"Thiamin mononitrate (labelled on the boxes as Vitamin B1) is a made from Grewe diamine (a coal tar derivative), processed with ammonia and other chemicals [sounds yummy]. No thiamin mononitrate is naturally found in food or the body." -abbreviated quote

I have recently changed my diet, so now I avoid many common foods which are actually pretty bad for you. I stopped eating sugary foods, sodas, alcohol, red meat, processed foods and foods with chemicals. This is what is making us fat, tired, apathetic, craving more, grouchy and dead.
