Nutritional silent poisons are ingredients which slowly eats away all the nutrients which are essential for health. Some of the silent poisons are white flour, white refined salt and sugar. They can be found in canned foods, processed foods and prepared foods. They can also be on the salt on your dining table.
We can visualise salt, flour and sugar as pure white colour because of the processing which breaks them from its original colour and is bleached. Whole flour is grey or brown in colour. Raw salt is grey. Raw sugar is brown in colour. They are processed for a long time for mass consumption and often undergo a chemical transformation.
Risks involved in processed sugar, salt and flour which is used in foods. It is difficult to say which of the three silent poisons is more harmful for your body. Look into your kitchen and you will see many food items in which you have added salt and sugar and flour.
Flour was stone grounded for over hundred of years. It lacked from its original nutrients from its grain. Wheat grains have got many layers of nutrients on it. When this grain is refined, it loses all its nutrients. This is why manufacturers have to add many vitamins and nutrients to it after it has been processed. Many of the flour based products write the ingredients as enriched flour and also list the names of other nutrients written on it.
Wheat today is sometimes stoned grounded. But during the industrial age, wheat was mass produced which caused the grained based products to be refined. This was done to empty all the calories in it.
Empty calories are in refined salt, sugar and flour. When raw sugar, grains and rock salt are processed, the calories are lost and there are no nutritional values in it. There is a hard time with out bodies to digest these foods. Calories are burned faster than digested with whole nutrition food. This is the reason why sugary food gives lots of energy just for craving of food.
For example, eating muffin made from whole grain and sea salt for breakfast will make the body digest the calories. Instead, if you eat a pastry made from white flour, your breakfast will not be long lasting. The pastry will allow the body to eat the nutrition which is required to burn the calories.
Since we have eaten processed food for many years, the harm to our body is silent. It can result in obesity problems and other diseases.
There is not much choice when salt, sugar and flour is present in almost all food. They are found in natural foods too. There are less beneficial nutrients in salt and sugar.
While buying food, read the label properly. If it is written corn syrup, fructose, Saccharine, High Fructose Corn Syrup or Sucralose, it is not a silent poison. Natural rock salt is a better option that processed salt. Try choosing bread which is made from whole grain wheat. These alone can make your cut down your silent poison in your daily intake.
