Reclaim Your Kitchen with Nutritional Chef Michael

Dr. Isabel MD Inspires

In this initial episode of "Reclaim Your Health", Nutritional Chef Michael from doctoronamission.com chats about the why of RYK. You get to hear about the recent history of our kitchen, nutrition, and how food companies have directed our eating habits.

Today, we’re going to be talking about how to reclaim your kitchen back from the food industry. We’re going to get into the history as well as reveal some facts on how our eating habits have come about through society.

First off, Reclaim Your Kitchen is about cooking inexpensive, quick, simple, elegant, tasty and healthy meals in your home or wherever you may be. Most importantly, it’s also about reclaiming your nutrition and health back.

A lot of people have asked what my food philosophy is and here’s my answer: one ingredient food.

The bottom line here is getting more of the real stuff—plant-based food into your eating lifestyle and start getting rid of the multiple-ingredient foods that can most likely do more harm than good.

Here’s an interesting fact: Did you know that most billion dollar food industries in the world have been bought up by the tobacco industry over the last 20 – 30 years?

There are three different prominent areas in the food industry: convenience foods, soda pop and the fast foods.

Convenience foods like cereals were a hit from 1949 up until today where sugar content has been adding up high, up to 50%. Moreover, salts were another food additive that made our eating habits the new normal.

What else happens is that in the 1950s, some of the large food companies started hiring the Home-Ec teachers in schools to teach students how to cook Betty Crocker products instead of cooking from scratch.

During the World War II, Coke offered five cents a bottle for every service man and woman around the world. So basically after the war, they created a whole generation addicted to soda pop because this was the cheapest thing they can get at that time.

How about fast foods in America? McDonald’s took the lead in 1948, followed by Burger King (1959), KFC (1952), and Domino’s Pizza (1967).

So now you can see the timeframe of when all these stuff started happening. The food companies have decided how much sugar you got—not you. They took that decision away from you about 50 years ago.

And then they created the saying that fat was the villain. So they came up with “low-fat” foods. So now sugar and salt were added because they needed the flavor.

Well here’s a question: how has that worked for society for over the last 50 years? We have become the human experiment for food companies—that’s what happened.

Don’t blame yourself—it’s not your fault.

That’s why taking it all full circle, I talk about Reclaim Your Kitchen. We’ve lost our kitchen to those guys or going out of our kitchens and ending up eating fast foods and takeaways.

Our brains have been wired to have that sugar and salt intake for decades and generations. To get that proper nutrition back, we got to break some of that wiring. That’s what we do here on Doctor on a Mission.
