Do you buy regular pre-made salad dressings from the super market?
i recommend you keep reading!
Most store bought salad dressings, dips & marinades are absolutely loaded with garbage products including hydrogenated oils & trans fats, artificial sweeteners, emulsifiers, thickeners, additives, preservitives & white processed sugar.
These cheap products lead to a host of health issues including weight gain, skin problems, nervous system issues & digestive stress just to name a few.
I felt compelled to put a list together of some of the more popular salad dressings & dips most people just buy without a clue of what there really eating so that they can be made from scratch with real ingredients.
Cooking things from scratch really does give you a connection with what you are putting in your mouth & what your future self is going to look like & be made of, as every single cell in the human body is replaced on a cycle out of the ingredients we put in our mouth & how we look after ourselves.
What do you want your bones, skin or eye sight made out of ?
