🍅 When Food Looks Too Perfect, Pause
If it looks too perfect—uniform size, flawless color, or oddly long shelf life—it might be better left on the shelf. Real food is supposed to spoil. It’s also supposed to nourish.
Most packaged foods come with an ingredient list—often long, unfamiliar, and hard to pronounce. Fresh fruits and vegetables typically don’t offer the same transparency, so we end up shopping the way we’ve been trained: by sight.
And that’s the problem—because we’re naturally drawn to the prettiest produce. We’ve been conditioned to believe a flawless exterior means “healthier,” “cleaner,” or “better.” But science and modern processing can influence how produce looks and how long it lasts—sometimes prioritizing appearance and shelf life over what really matters.
🍅 The truth? What we eat directly affects how we feel—from inflammation in our joints to how quickly we recover from spinal or musculoskeletal conditions. The cleaner the fuel, the faster the repair.
