That’s why I also drink Metamucil twice a day. Stuff is fantastic for keeping everything moving. And I eat my fruits and veggies, but nothing wrong with a little supplementation.
Naa, humans consume a lot more fiber than in the past. Salted meat was basically one of the main things we were able to store for long periods of time. The one thing that has changed? Overeating and sedentary lifestyle.
I get that i said nowadays but the comparison is irrelevant because whether they’re consuming more or less than in the past, it’s still not enough. Also a lot has changed, including capitalism taking away our time, thereby forcing a lot of people into convenient, cheap options.
Most people in the past worked just to be able to eat. It’s way easier to get food now than ever. This isn’t a capitalism thing, this is consumerism and being to lazy to cook home food. It’s way cheaper to eat grocery store bought food you prep and cook for yourself than it is to eat fast food. That shit is expensive as fuck.
The ever increasingly pressure capitalism is putting on people is causing a lot of issues.
People are overworked, overstressed just to make through the end of the month and that causes a lot of issues. It’s reductive to blame people not cooking solely on being lazy.
The Netherlands works some of the shortest hours in the world, has some of the best healthcare, and also has a rise in CRC. This is not a capitalism bad argument. This is a change in our society, and potentially a “microplastics are everywhere now”. This has nothing to do with capitalism bad.
People are not wanting to cook, this is not a “they have no time”. They don’t cook because fast food is easier.
We live in a consumerism society, which so many have gotten used to. It’s why if this society collapses, starvation is going to be off the charts. People don’t know how to survive anymore without instant meals and premade food.
You also pointed out that they don’t have time. Which I provided with evidence that the rise of CRC is hitting the Netherlands just as bad, and they have some of the best work/life balance on the planet.
Maybe in the form that protein is consumed. If it’s processed protein like bars or drinks, or other forms of packaged and processed foods it might be an issue.
Perhaps overconsumption of protein?
Same thought i had. A lot of men nowadays eat almost no fibre, which is very important in preventing colon cancer.

Totally! And whether you eat a lot of plant fibre, you may not get enough soluble fibre, which metamucil gives you.

I was talking about your “people are lazy” comment, not the colorectal cancer rise in men.
