utritionally vitiating effects.
Heating foods, particularly in mixtures, can racemize amino acids, carbohydrates and vitamins, oxidize essential fatty acids and cholesterol, form Maillard protein-sugar reaction products, change the physico- chemical state of food, form acrylamides, hydrogenate fatty acids, destroy enzymes, chelate minerals, destroy vitamins.... to only begin the list. The end result is a food matrix that might smell, look and taste great, have an ingredient label and nutritional claims that are beguiling, but be nutritionally imbalanced and disease-producing.
The bottom line is that true food is a complex, biological, holistic matrix, not a mere assemblage of reductionistic parts and pieces that can be treated with impunity. Heat is the enemy of nutrition as can be easily predicted by observing what happens to any other complex thing that is set afire.
It is characteristic of life and real, living food that it is highly ordered and of low entropy. Heat accelerates the inevitable thermodynamic rise in entropy, i.e., the loss of order that characterizes life and differentiates it from non-life. In effect, the healthful information (another version of thermodynamic entropy) in food is lost with the introduction of heat and thus that information cannot transfer to and benefit the eater.
Fixing Things
It would be very difficult today to achieve the ideal, raw, natural diet. First of all, we would have trouble with aesthetics and palatability due to the perversion of our palate, and secondly there are few choices available in the market. Nevertheless, understanding the above principles helps us understand how to make eating decisions and compromise the least. It gives us an ideal that we can at least strive toward.
Frustrated with the misdirection of the food industry and their unwillingness to see or apply the above principles, over two decades ago 上一页 [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] ... 下一页 >>
