Excessive High Fructose Corn Syrup & High Sodium

We're going to need cardiologists, oncologists, and diabetes specialists (internal medicine, pediatricians) to petition our grocery stores, Wal-Mart's, SuperTargets, for healthier pasta sauces, soups, canned vegetables, and fruits: free of salt, with organic vegetables that are more nutritious.

The problem in the canned vegetables aisle seems to be salt, high sodium levels, and high fructose corn syrup. It's going to lead to a diabetes, heart attack, hypertension, malnutrition, lowered attention span, hyperactivity and obesity epidemic.

The veggie pastas and whole-grain foods are so important for the poor. I hope they'll add organic chia seeds into them also. Can cholesterol, sodium and transfats be reduced by 75% in our canned soups? Lard is not a healthy cooking oil, nor is butter.

Organic olive oil is better than butter for everyone, but a tablespoon contains a hundred calories, I believe. Baking those skinless, boness chicken breasts with organic, reduced-sodium, fat-free chicken broth is best. I don't think it's the gluten, as much as the high fructose corn syrup and high glycemic index load that's causing us to have so many health challenges.

Also, it's unrealistic for me to consume 3,000 calories per day, and rely on just working out, while trying to lose weight. I'm too old for that. Now, I wonder if I should go vegetarian on weekends, to try to reduce more cholesterol in my own diet. The challenge is the high altitude and lack of easily absorbable, complete proteins, amino acids and iron though.

***See if everyone can petition the grocery stores for healthier canned, and jarred foods. For diabetics, they could lose a leg, from having those high-fructose corn syrup-rich, canned foods regularly. Also, how about providing everything sodium-free automatically?***

***For our military chow halls, why not switch everyone to organic Total cereal, with organic, hard-boiled eggs, organic clementines, and organic, UHT, fat-free milk (unflavored, unsweetened) for breakfast?***
