Is there a point in eating healthy in the U.S.?!
So what do you think?
Thanks for reading.
Answers: Ok I'm an American teen and I know that our foods are genetically modified. Such as injecting animals with antibiotics like chickens. Even out veggies could be harmful since we use pesticide chemicals to keep insects away. Our water has flouride in it? Thats what I heard but I'm not sure. I hear that these chemicals are not meant to be in our bodies but didn't notice they were harmful until the present time. A classmate of mine gave a speech about this and I find it interesting.

I think that it’s better to eat fruits and vegetables grown with pesticides than McDonald’s.
Do some independent research. Just because you heard one speech from someone who’s in high school doesn’t mean you should throw up your hands about eating well. If you do your research on the internet, please keep in mind that anyone can say anything they want and that it’s really easily to make statistics say what you want. If you want reliable info, stick to government & university websites.
You might be interested in learning more about organic food, which is grown chemical free. It’s more costly to buy because it’s more costly to produce.
things were much better when I was a kid, but maybe they did the same things long ago too???
I think it is up to the individual to determine what he or she eats. It is hard to eat healthy unless you really pay attention and be smart about it.
I think the classmate was doing a lot of hand-waving and fear mongering to the class to evoke an emotional response.
Of course certain chemicals are harmful to our body, but to spread fear and mis-information is just a ploy for a better grade and I believe unfounded.
BTW... injecting antibiotics is not genetically modifying foods.
I think before they sell them they make sure that they don't have any of that stuff in them. If it was harmful they could not sell it!
NO NO
your off base
and maybe no one will be able to help you..
SINCE you have shut out the logic..
your not thinking what is really natural... fluoride Is most everywhere..It is a simple earthly element on the chemical periodic table..
I AM sorry but you do not believe you are a child of the Universe.. STAR material
the Government has stopped the steroids in food like 10years ago..
genetically altering food stuff has been going for thousands of years
Your just jerking yourself around because of FALSE information and a political agenda.
why do you chose to post... not sure?
I think that eating fruit and veggies are healthier than burger king mcdonalds..................................
