Look at the labels on the food you eat. The top ingredients in most cases are white flour, some kind of oil and then some kind of sugar. The problem is that this narrow exposure to ingredients leads you to eat a very low amount of vitamins and minerals. If you start eating a wide variety of foods and ingredients, you will get the wide variety of nutrients that your body needs for optimum health. Doing so can lead to all kinds of healthy outcomes.
And when it comes to your health, there is no excuse to overlook nutrition. It is simply expensive and boneheaded to stop eating healthy food only to then take lots of pills later in life. There is an old proverb that says something to the effect that if a man doesn't eat right but wants his his doctor's treatment is wasting his doctors time. That is absolutely true. You have to make sure you take care of yourself first before you expect society to take care of you. And its very easy to take care of yourself, just look at your food labels and make sure that there is a wide variety of ingredients.
