Are processed foods bad for us?

Many peole wonder if processed foods are bad for us and why are they. Yes they are bad for us!!

Processed foods cause high blood preasure,the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and our nations obesity epidemic. We can get food poisoning which is an illness cause by bacteria in the food such as rotten foods or food not properly packaged. Vital nutrients are greatly diminished. Blanching vegetables before packaged causes water-soluble vitamins to fall out. Milling grains for breads causes the husk to fall off, which stores most of the valuable nutrients. Sometimes they have chemicals put into them. Such as pestisides and other chemiclas to kill the bugs. And some can cause us to get very ill.
