>>16693486 (OP)>Why do scientists lie that processed foods are bad for our health?They generally are.
>Cheese, yogurt, pasta and bread are all processed foods.None of these are particularly good for you. Evolutionarily speaking, domestication of animals for the purpose of milk consumption and agriculture are very recent phenomenons that are nothing like the diet we evolved for. Former is about 8-10k years old, latter around 10-12k. It's literally a drop of water in the hundreds of thousand of years of a diet based on meat, fruit and vegetables. Vast majority of the human population loses the ability to digest lactose in adulthood and even in populations that developed a tolerance, sensitivities to milk proteins and hormones are common. Bread on the other hand is very poor in micronutrients.
>Bread was the main food of europeans for thousands of years.The only reason both persisted is because they are cheap, abundant, safe and easy to produce, which made them good for sustaining civilization. Note that is said sustaining, they're good enough to survive on, but not ideal for optimal health.It's an artifical solution to an artificial problem.
>They promote that people should eat vegetables and fruit everyday, which are full of pesticides and which could never be grown year round.Pesticides are a vaild concern, but grains are subject to having them as well, and milk has its own issues in the form of hormones and antibiotics.
That they can't be grown year round is not a factor for health. Again, civilization is a recent phenomenon. We did not evolve for sitting in one place year round growing crops and milking animals. We evolved for hunting and gathering.
