Fuel for Your Car, Fuel for Your Body? Posted: 26 Jan 2012 05:21 AM PST This picture was taken at a Shell Gas Station in the San Francisco area. Just a friendly reminder from the convenience store inside to fuel up on sugars and fats as you’re fueling your car. While automobiles can consume only one type of fuel, humans are a much more complex machine. We can ingest a wider variety of inputs and convert them to energy. However, just like tainted fuel can mess with your car’s engine, so can the ingredients and nutrients in some of these treats. It’s all in the proportions, of course. A tiny amount of impurity in gasoline won’t affect your car. And a candy one in a while won’t dent your overall health. Unfortunately, we have too many opportunities in the day to load up on the unhealthy fuels for our body. A gas station is just one of them. Where do you get “pitched” to fuel up on candy and sugary drinks? Get Fooducated: iPhone App Android App RSS Subscription or Email Subscription |
