FAST FOOD IS NOT NUTRITION. DUH.
.
Thought: nutrition feeds the body so that it can accomplish diverse healing and maintenance tasks. Insufficient nutrition leads to disease and deferred or delayed healing, no matter what systems are involved.
.
Fast food is nutritionally deficient and filled with harmful substances including alien genetic and viral material, probable and known carcinogens, disease-delivering components, preservatives, colors, flavorings and other dangerous chemicals, nutritional substitutes, fillers and other non-nutritive materials.
.
How can a hospital which is poisoning its patients, staff and visitors receive and maintain accreditation? Unless, of course, the nutritive quality of patient care is not part of accreditation.
.
How can it receive public monies for offering sub-standard care (in this case, feeding) to those groups? Unless, of course, the nutritive quality of patient care is not part of funding.
.
.
How much revenue do these same hospitals make from these popular health-cancelling franchises on their premises?
.
Do we really have the right to outsource nutrition to proven nutritional bandits when those served include highly vulnerable people?
.
Are Registered Dieticians part of the decision-making process in those hospitals? The same profession which enjoys lavish sponsorship of their professional meetings and distributes vastly inaccurate “educational” materials authored by the purveyors of GMO/Chemical/Fake “PHUDE”, are in charge of offering non-nutritive fare to their patients known derisively as “hospital food”.
.
Patients and patient advocates can reasonably question why nutritional meals are not routinely part of the health restoration process and demand changes through local and state-wide pressure.
.
These institutions receive public money for treating their patients. They must be held accountable according to the laws of biochemistry and clinical nutrition, not profit-driven industrial Big Food/Big Agra/Big Chema/Big Biotech interests. Why? Because hospital patients are vulnerable and their families captive audiences for the charade of toxic PHUDE these companies offer to us so that we can eat ourselves into illness, bite by deadly bite.
.
Would we allow the injection of contaminated IV solutions? No. There would be inquiries and outcries. Why is the ingestion of contaminated food any different?
.
Only public pressure will change this, and only so long as the public does not lose interest.
.
.
Two quick vignettes: While in Denmark I was injured and hospitalized on an emergency basis. While I was unable to eat for the first day of my hospital stay, for the subsequent time there I was served delicious, and highly nutritious meals tailored to my particular medical and metabolic needs. It was a targeted and healing diet. And it was a delight to eat.
.
My husband was injured in a serious skiing accident and was rushed by ambulance to a major urban hospital center (one of the largest in the country). Since I practice nutritional medicine I had a pretty keen interest in what he was being served. I was horrified by the gelatin, the carbohydrates including abundant white bread, sugared, artificially colored and flavored beverages, hydrogenated oils, food substitutes and other non nutritive materials on his tray meal after meal.
.
I made an appointment with the Chief Dietician and asked her why he did not have more, and higher quality protein. She asked me what protein was and suggested that she could have extra pats of butter added to his tray to supply that requirement.
.
I asked about the incredibly high carbohydrate content of each meal. She said, well, he needs to build muscle, doesn’t he? And I told her that the cans of Ensure being sent to him several times per day did not provide sufficient vitamins and minerals for his healing.
.
She was astonished, saying, that Ensure was a complete meal in itself and nothing else was actually needed for complete nutrition for a post surgical 82 year old patient like my husband.
.
I brought organic food in to the hospital, against hospital rules, every day for every meal my husband ate.
.
The dietician told me that my worries were not justified as we were leaving because my husband had recovered so exceptionally well. In fact, she said, she had never seen a patient his age recover so well from surgery or from broken bones.
.
No, probably not.
