I’m stuck in the U.S.

There is a lot of junk ingredients in U.S food, which can be a problem for mental health; as the human brain is influenced by and influences the gastrointestinal area.[1][2][3]

To describe this ‘gut-brain’ relationship in other terms: stomach conditions can change the general behavior of someone. The Brain-Gut relationship means that you can change the behavior of a person by changing the food they eat.

I think the U.S food industry outright drugs the people with addictive and junk ingredients (added sugar) to suppress class consciousness and marxist thought.

So how do I deal with the withdrawal of U.S food?

    Taper off, and replace with easily accessible healthy alternatives.

    Instead of going ‘cold turkey’ taper off of your junk food and replace it with healthy alternatives. Ex slowly replace ice pops with frozen fruit, or the potato chips with nuts, kale chips, and jicama wedges etc.

    Going 180 into healthy tends to lead to relapses in my experience.
