Trends in food products reveal the paradoxical behavior of present consumers
Just keep in mind to buy foods not products at least for 80% of calories ingested and save your children from cereal products which are sugar and corn oil mixed with starch. Buy whole grain oat, raw honey, whole milk and fruits. |

Wow! That's a weapon in the debate about food and reward
Am J Clin Nutr. 2013 Dec;98(6):1377-84. doi: 10.3945/ajcn.113.069443. Epub 2013 Oct 16.
Relative ability of fat and sugar tastes to activate reward, gustatory, and somatosensory regions.
Abstract
BACKGROUND:
Although the intake of high-fat and high-sugar food activates mesolimbic reward, gustatory, and oral somatosensory brain regions, contributing to overeating, few studies have examined the relative role of fat and sugar in the activation of these brain regions, which would inform policy, prevention, and treatment interventions designed to reduce obesity.
OBJECTIVE:
We evaluated the effect of a high-fat or high-sugar equicaloric chocolate milkshake and increasing fat or sugar milkshake content on the activation of these regions.
DESIGN:
Functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to assess the neural response to the intake of high-fat/high-sugar, high-fat/low-sugar, low-fat/high-sugar, and low-fat/low-sugar chocolate milkshakes and a tasteless solution in 106 lean adolescents (mean ± SD age = 15.00 ± 0.88 y). Analyses contrasted the activation to the various milkshakes.
RESULTS:
High-fat compared with high-sugar equicaloric milkshakes caused greater activation in the bilateral caudate, postcentral gyrus, hippocampus, and inferior frontal gyrus. High-sugar compared with high-fat equicaloric milkshakes caused greater activation in the bilateral insula extending into the putamen, the Rolandic operculum, and thalamus, which produced large activation regions. Increasing sugar in low-fat milkshakes caused greater activation in the bilateral insula and Rolandic operculum; increasing fat content did not elicit greater activation in any region.
CONCLUSIONS:
Fat caused greater activation of the caudate and oral somatosensory regions than did sugar, sugar caused greater activation in the putamen and gustatory regions than did fat, increasing sugar caused greater activity in gustatory regions, and increasing fat did not affect the activation. Results imply that sugar more effectively recruits reward and gustatory regions, suggesting that policy, prevention, and treatment interventions should prioritize reductions in sugar intake. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as DK092468.

Buying organic meat in order to diminish antibiotic resistance?
The threat is real.
Yes it is a good advice because we are in danger to fight resistant micro-organisms without drugs... We have the opportunity to use less antibiotics both in humans and animals. The first step in humans is to reverse the present paradigm which is based on the false assumption that presence of micro-organisms in a fluid or a tissue means infection. In animals we see too frequently prescriptions for the whole farm instead of treatment of a specific animal, preventive treatments and still today antibiotic treatments to increase weight.

Significance
Antimicrobials are used in livestock production to maintain health and productivity. These practices contribute to the spread of drug-resistant pathogens in both livestock and humans, posing a significant public health threat. We present the first global map (228 countries) of antibiotic consumption in livestock and conservatively estimate the total consumption in 2010 at 63,151 tons. We project that antimicrobial consumption will rise by 67% by 2030, and nearly double in Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa. This rise is likely to be driven by the growth in consumer demand for livestock products in middle-income countries and a shift to large-scale farms where antimicrobials are used routinely. Our findings call for initiatives to preserve antibiotic effectiveness while simultaneously ensuring food security in low- and lower-middle-income countries.
Abstract
Demand for animal protein for human consumption is rising globally at an unprecedented rate. Modern animal production practices are associated with regular use of antimicrobials, potentially increasing selection pressure on bacteria to become resistant. Despite the significant potential consequences for antimicrobial resistance, there has been no quantitative measurement of global antimicrobial consumption by livestock. We address this gap by using Bayesian statistical models combining maps of livestock densities, economic projections of demand for meat products, and current estimates of antimicrobial consumption in high-income countries to map antimicrobial use in food animals for 2010 and 2030. We estimate that the global average annual consumption of antimicrobials per kilogram of animal produced was 45 mg⋅kg−1, 148 mg⋅kg−1, and 172 mg⋅kg−1 for cattle, chicken, and pigs, respectively. Starting from this baseline, we estimate that between 2010 and 2030, the global consumption of antimicrobials will increase by 67%, from 63,151 ± 1,560 tons to 105,596 ± 3,605 tons. Up to a third of the increase in consumption in livestock between 2010 and 2030 is imputable to shifting production practices in middle-income countries where extensive farming systems will be replaced by large-scale intensive farming operations that routinely use antimicrobials in subtherapeutic doses. For Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa, the increase in antimicrobial consumption will be 99%, up to seven times the projected population growth in this group of countries. Better understanding of the consequences of the uninhibited growth in veterinary antimicrobial consumption is needed to assess its potential effects on animal and human health.

You want to eat less than 1/3 of the calories you ingest, Go paleo!
"A provisional conclusion, at least for Canada, is that a
healthy diet would contain less than one-third of energy
in the form of ultra-processed products. This could be
achieved only if diets are based primarily on meals and
dishes prepared with minimally processed foods and
processed culinary ingredients."

In other words governments should outlaw the processes that create the atherogenic and pro inflammatory TFA but keep the rumen produced TFA (which are different) in our dairy products.
In order to favor these changes consumer should buy grass-fed milk, cheeses and benefit from the paradox of high sat fat diet and low CVD mortality. Those dairy products are high in W3PUFA and rumen produced TFA. They could also avoid any fried products and products with mention of partly hydrogenated vegetable fat.
