Al-Marsad Newspaper: Heart consultant Dr. Munawwar Al-Enezi said that the natural food is “meat, eggs, dairy products, whole grains, fruits and vegetables.”

Nutrients

Al-Enezi added, during a tweet he posted on his Twitter account: Natural food is unique to what is called the “food matrix”, which is simply the chemical and physical composition created by the Creator to balance the nutrients in a food, whether in the form of liquid (milk) or solid (meat); This formula balances the interaction between the general and partial components of the food and preserves them in their journey from chewing to complete digestive absorption.

food manufacturing

He pointed out that the enemy of the food matrix is ​​(industrialization), explaining that the reason for manufacturing food is to produce huge and profitable quantities of cheap ingredients and add other ingredients to enhance the taste, shape and taste, and to control the delay in the feeling of satiety.

canned juices

He pointed out the foods that are produced using industrial techniques: most canned food, canned juices, chocolate, sweets, cakes, biscuits, processed bread, processed meats (mortadella and sausage), soft drinks, ice cream, packaged soups, french fries (chips), and frozen meals.

nutritional matrix

And Aban: All these processed foods have little nutritional benefit and are even harmful as a result of disrupting the nutritional matrix because manufacturing reduces the overall benefit of the food and turns it into “partial” benefits for the food components separately.

fructose syrup

And about the dangers of additives such as whey powder or inulin, and highly processed carbohydrates such as maltodextrin and fructose-glucose syrup.

Obesity and diabetes

He continued: they contain hydrogenated oils and trans oils, and a lot of what they contain of preservatives and taste enhancers that trigger (inflammatory) reactions in the body that are linked to obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis and tumors, and the content of sugar and salt (necessary to highlight the dazzling taste) in processed food is associated with chronic diseases, especially diabetes and pressure. .
