Dr. Alan Goldheimer gives a 45 min talk on why we instinctively choose the foods we choose. I don't agree with his Vegan lifestyle choice, but he is an engaging and entertaining speaker and he makes sound arguments about the instinct behind our food choices.

The Pleasure Trap

II Chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.

I agree with your opinion about this presentation. But understanding my addictions to refined sugars and baked goods does not help me end them. Croissants remain the best-tasting thing in the universe, with a good chocolate cake not far behind.

Clearly you are a guy, my wife laughed out loud over the chocolate section, and she rarely laughs.

Wheat does terrible things to me, but I still love the taste and texture of whole wheat baked goods.
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Alfred Tennyson', 'W')e are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are;
One equal temper of heroic hearts,

Last time I went to the US after 5 months here in remote Panama eating healthy and local I indulged in a pleasure trap and ate a pint of Haagen Dasz ice cream and got sicker than a dog. I had been having some abdominal issues and went to an urgent care facility and was diagnosed with gall stones. I am back in Panama now and will have my gall bladder removed next month. The symptoms were long in coming but that ice cream indulgence, a big wad of fat , just put me over the edge. That was almost 2 months ago and I have been forced to maintain a low fat diet since. My symptoms come and go but I do feel better actually eating less fat.
Those taste buds evolved to desire that which was energy rich and relatively rare in our environment; fat and sugar. We are pretty hopelessly predisposed to over indulging in them.

Ohh yes , the humans , like most mammals are programmed to overindulge during the fleeting good times ,
pilling fat like happy hamsters for the much more frequent bad times .
the pattern is the brief plenty of late summer , followed by the starvation of late winter
those who couldn't get some fat around October would be dead by March
now we can overeat all year round , which is definitely not the case in nature

Ibn, gallstones are caused by fat restricted diets that don't stimulate the gall bladder to contract after a meal. Read this information to see I am not making it up, the research is clear.
