Doomed.

We humans have a problem; we have become addicted to our food supply. Trace chemicals may not be the cause, it may be higher carbon dioxides cause higher amount of carbohydrate to be fixed in grains, and plant starches, and the concentration is high enough that we have become addicted to sugar or fructose more likely, that gives us a dopamine rush and that is what we are addicted to. It may be that it is trace chemicals effecting the endorphin reward paths, opioid censors, or adrenaline censors. Either way, to survive, some of must learn to kick the food habit... again.   So I will light a candle to ease my future passing.

Friday I ran into an old fellow now, someone who "had a piece" of the same company as I for for many years, but I left before he did. I did come back for "contracts" later, and for a while as an employee, but the fun was gone. The industry changed, and it was no longer fun. We are both retired, and bored... well not bored, not interested in doing much, even disinterested in life's pleasures, or the like. For some of us retirement is not a good thing, but we could not continue on either. Most of our cohort have died off already, and but we are young for seniors. I just do not want to sit around and talk to other seniors about the old days. I need to do something but I hurt in so many places... and do not want to do anything that is going to make the pain worse... I can understand those that become addicted to opioid pain medications, then take to street drugs, when the legal but addicting supply runs out. Damn drug companies and medical industry... for ever starting the thought, belief... that so many have... that we can be pain free in life. Another false belief to let go of... end sentence with a proposition, just because that is the way I think. We all just die in the end anyway.

So on with the remainder of my life, and to understand and perhaps beat this food addiction... perhaps a worthy pursuit. Sugar, primarily fructose, is addicting... we have it in abundance now. That is the two essentials of addiction, addicting and available at a price. When it is affordable... cheap, it just becomes a problem. That is one, but there is a second... opioid addiction, from the grain and dairy, or perhaps we became addicted to opioid otherwise, and then the wheat and dairy provided a trace... I am not sure. It may be multiple factors. So the plans are obvious... abstinence. Get off and stay off.

Obvious like the sun going around the earth, or the moon going around the earth. Why one without the other? Oh well, some thing are just wrong.

So overeating is just a mental thing, driven by biochemistry. It is up to the logical part of us to stop it. Until we stop, we will be unable to stop. And it is everywhere. Taper down and avoid like the plague. again.
