Food is also addiction if not in control…

Do you feel like you sometimes lose or have lost control over how you eat?

Do you ever make yourself sick because you feel uncomfortably full?

Do you believe yourself to be fat, even when others say you are too thin?

Does food or thoughts about food dominate your life?

Do thoughts about changing your body or your weight dominate your life?

Have others become worried about your weight?

Food addiction is a complex mental health issue that can have serious complications if left untreated, it is highly recommended that professional help be sought to effectively heal from this disorder. If you or a loved one has found yourself stuck within the vicious cycle of a food addiction, you have likely experienced a roller coaster of emotions, including despair, frustration, and hopelessness. Come out from the illusion about food we have in our mind. It is a myth that Food is a source of energy and glamour or charm.

However, for many individuals, food can become as addictive as drugs are to a substance abuser. For men and women suffering with a food addiction, highly palatable foods.

Food addicts become dependent upon the “good” feelings that are obtained from consuming certain foods, which often perpetuates a continued need to eat, even when not hungry.  These behaviors generate a vicious cycle of food addiction.  As the food addict continues to gorge upon foods that induce pleasurable feelings, they often overindulge and eat beyond what is required for satiety and normal nutrition.

Food is not the source of vitality as it appeared to be, Man has to work from morning to evening, and there is investment of energy. Since the mistaken concept prevalent in the society is that food gives energy.

Although my above statement is 100% true but it is very difficult for me to prove for a common people. So I will start from worldly known truth... while working you will consume energy and if you will not have proper food you may lose the weight. Its true but I ask you one question suppose you are very much tired exhausted up to extreme level, in that case which gives you energy ......Sleep or Food..??

Unknowingly you will say I need both, But firstly you will say without sleep you can’t be fresh just by having enough food.

Actually work involves destruction of tissues and loss of vital power, while food replaces the lost tissues and vital power is replaced during deep sleep.

If food could restore vital power, there would not have been any need of sleep and then at the end of the day, when vitality is exhausted, one could have taken a hearty meal and continued working throughout the night.

I mean to say due to misconception we are addicted to food so much that overeating is a very normal practice in the society and much unneeded food is gulped down and the result is accumulation of impurities and obesity .

What is Homocysteine...?

You get homocysteine mostly from eating meat. High levels of it are linked to early development of heart disease.

Elevated homocysteine levels have also been identified as an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Homocysteine is a sulfur-containing amino acid derived from methionine that is normally present in blood. Elevated homocysteine levels are thought to promote thrombogenesis, impair endothelial vasomotor function, promote lipid peroxidation, and induce vascular smooth muscle proliferation. Evidence from retrospective, cross-sectional, and prospective studies links elevated homocysteine levels with coronary heart disease and stroke.

Vitamin B12, folate, and vitamin B6 are involved in homocysteine metabolism. In the presence of insufficient vitamin B12, homocysteine levels can rise due to inadequate function of methionine synthase. Results from several randomized controlled trials indicate that combinations of vitamin B12 and folic acid supplements with or without vitamin B6 decrease homocysteine levels in people with vascular disease or diabetes and in young adult women. In another study, older men and women who took a multivitamin/multimineral supplement for 8 weeks experienced a significant decrease in homocysteine levels.

What makes RBC & DNA in our body & Neurological functions

Vitamin B12 is required for proper red blood cell formation, neurological function, and DNA synthesis .What harm can having too little of a vitamin do? A severe vitamin B12 deficiency can lead to deep depression, paranoia and delusions, memory loss, incontinence, loss of taste and smell, and more. The human body needs vitamin B12 to make red blood cells, nerves, and DNA, and to carry out other functions. The average adult should get 2.4 micrograms a day. Like most vitamins, B12 can't be made by the body. Instead, it must be gotten from food or supplements. And therein lies the problem: Some people don't consume enough vitamin B12 to meet their needs, while others can't absorb enough, no matter how much they take in. As a result, vitamin B12  deficiency is relatively common, especially among older people.

Food

Vitamin B12 is naturally found in animal products, including fish, meat, poultry, eggs, milk, and milk products. Vitamin B12 is generally not present in plant foods, but fortified breakfast cereals are a readily available source of vitamin B12 with high bioavailability for vegetarians. Some nutritional yeast products also contain vitamin B12.
