The Biggest Loser and Subway!!!

I love the Biggest Loser! Love to watch it, love the message, love how they push the contestants to work out and be the best they can be, love the transformations, but it makes me really upset how they keep on promoting Subway sandwiches as a health food...there bread is full of crap, preservatives, dyes and even high fructose corn syrup!
You want to call that health food, I don't think Mc Donald is much worse.




Subway promotes their wheat bread as whole wheat. It is just as bad as white bread, with enriched wheat flower being the first ingredient. Anything that is stripped of its fiber will be recognized by the body as pure sugar. You might as well eat that cake!

High Fructose Corn Syrup really!? I am sure you have all seen the Pro High Fructose Corn Syrup commercials. It is just like sugar and fine in moderation!Ugh..does that mean you have to add it to everything from bread to jelly and ketchup! It is not fine, not even in moderation. It causes obesity, Type 2 diabetes, Hypertension, long term liver damage and studies even found high level of mercury in HFCS, which can cause irreversible brain and nervous system damage.


Their sauces and dressings are not much better. Full of chemicals, preservatives, sugars and saturated fats.
The first ingredient in their ''Sweet Onion Dressing'' is sugar! The first one in their ''Honey Mustard Dressing'' is High Fructose Corn Syrup. Healthy is different.
Even the veggies, like the pickles are full of preservatives and even food coloring.


I am not a calorie counter and I don't believe in counting calories, but 1200 calories, 12 grams of saturated fat and 1560 g of sodium in a meatball sandwich, that is promoted as ''fresh and healthy'' gives me the chills. Crazy world we live in!


We all have to learn to stop believing in commercials and junk people want to sell us. It is all about money and profit!
Nobody gives a sh... about your health!!!
We have to educate ourselves and always, always read ingredients and ask questions. Be in charge of your own health and future.
Make yourself a healthy sandwich with some sprouted, organic bread, hummus, avocado and tons of fresh veggies..that is what I call ''eat fresh''!
