The idea here is following: - Processing food, even in chemical ways does not necessarily mean it will be bad for your health. - However, a lot of examples have shown that food that has been processed by the current realities of the food industry is often very bad for your health. Many times it's shown to be bad, many times they don't even check it. - Basically if you process the food, the chances are very good that it is going to be bad. You have to be very careful when you do that (and back it with a lot of research) in order to do it safely. - Food industry do not have a direct interest of doing it safely in the long run. They have an interest to make money and not get caught by existing regulations. And finally: - For you as a consumer it's very hard to know whether specific processing is safe or not. - Many times it's hard for the producer to even know. But they don't really care, as long as regulations are followed (sometimes not even that). - This leads to you knowing that if the food has been processed, the chance is very good that it's bad for you. Not because "processing" is some weird satanic black magical non-christian sinful process. But because it's currently implemented in such a way that it lets through a lot of bad. - There is no reliable way for you to distinguish between good processed and bad processed. -> If you wanna eat healthy, in 2017 you should stay away from processed.
