If you feel like you're being a bytch, think about when was the last time you ate soy

As long as I can stretch this thang called life out to about 70-75, I’m alright. I’m gone still eat my soul food.
Just gotta quit with all the fast food and shyt.

Total lie. Absolute, total lie.
The most common genetic modification is just herbicide resistance, so Monsanto can dump as much Roundup as it wants onto fields and the crops still survive. That doesn't help us feed 7 billion people at all, it just allows agribusiness to be even lazier about proper weed control and crop management.
And the worst thing is that weeds have already started picking up the Roundup-resistant gene less than 10 years in, so not only is it going to end up being a wash but they're ruining crap for non-GMO farmers too. (Though of course organic farmers who don't use Roundup will eventually gain an advantage.)
The purpose of introducing most GMOs is so lazy, low-labor means of commercial agriculture can be maintained. These agribusinesses don't give a crap about the environment, they don't give a crap about worker safety, they don't give a crap about mixing crops or maintaining proper crop rotation or improving the topsoil or maximizing natural food nutrition content. All they want is to produce whatever crop is paying the most (often with Farm Bill subsidies) with the least labor costs.
So tell me, is there a global labor shortage? Of COURSE not. There are hundreds of millions of people around the globe looking for work. We should be using MORE labor-intensive farming, put those people to work on the fields. Labor-intensive small-scale agriculture is the most land-efficient agriculture in the world, in the 1970s in China local peasants were doing labor-intensive agriculture that produced yields 9 times higher per acre than what American agribusiness was doing. It uses less water, less fertilizer, less pesticide, less herbicide, less acres, and produces more nutritious crops. The only drawbacks are that it requires a lot more labor, is less profitable, and doesn't lend itself to commercial agribusiness.
That is what corporate GMO agriculture is fighting against. I know about it first-hand in the third world. They are working their asses off to get farmers off of their small-scale labor-intensive agriculture and buy into high-cost corporate agriculture instead, so that more of the profits can flow to Monsanto. In 90% of cases there is no meaningful motivation other than profit.
Yup. Widescale GMO use did even start until the last 20 years, when world population was already at 6 billion. The limiting factors for food production are the amount of land that has healthy topsoil, the amount of fresh water available, and the amount of pollution we're willing to tolerate. Most GMO use doesn't seriously address those issues. GMOs are mostly created for the purposes of allowing an increase in herbicide use, allow lazy disease/pest control, reduce labor and increase profits.
Yup.
I don't know what ya'all in the South are doing, but hardly anyone on the West Coast eats enough soul food to make a difference. But when you in urban LA it is so much easier to get empty calorie junk food. Every kid eating spicy hot cheetoes and white bread sandwiches and chips and soda all the time, and it's killing us.
Fruits
Vegetables
Whole grains (brown rice, brown bread, brown pasta)
Nuts
Beans
Chicken and fish (but not fried)
Limit the high-fat red meat
Cut down the sugar, cut down the chips or anything else with processed starch
Go easy on the fried stuff
Don't drink anything but water, and maybe milk if you're growing or working out a lot
It's not like it's some secret formula. All this stuff been known. You don't even gotta spend a ton of money if you learn to shop right. You just got to cut out the empty calories that don't do no good.

My condolences my brotha!!!!
This is some true shyt I'm starting to feel the effects of a poor diet myself always thinking just lifting weights works
I know. I’m not fat at all, but certain foods give me indigestion or worse, I can feel my blood pressure elevate after eating them and my dumb ass will still eat them for the taste.
It’s over for that. I’m not trying to be like the other men in my family, clutching my chest in my 60s.
As a dude with some Mexican family members (various cousins) and around Mexicans a lot, they have just as many health issues. In the past few years I’ve known two that have died early from diabetes. I’ve known a few more with blood pressure issues.

Is this true
Partially
Black people do fine with good salts
