FOOD BASICS

Hello guys... this week has been kinda hectic and i havent been able to write for a while. But this evening i just want to write a little about food and the many things it concerns itself with.
First off we all know that the kitchen is where it all goes down, like the happening place. It can be more or less described as the chemical laboratory where food is being processed in various ways.
Among the various physical agents which act upon food, heat is by all means the most important, and it signifies the symbol of transformation. Other physical agents are cold and electromagnetic radiation or blending.
There are also some other processes used in the kitchen daily, these processes are physiochemical, they transform and alter to some extent, either greater or lesser. In some aspects, they benefit the food because cooking them, they are digested easily, they taste better and pathological germs are destroyed.
However in other aspects, processing of food in the kitchen might end up in unfavourable results which may cause harm to human health, this is as a result of the action of intense heat that destroys the vitamins, enzymes and other natural active substances which have healing and preventive powers. An example of this is cooking meat and meat derivatives at high temperatures, it ends up producing cancerous substances, eapecially when they are placed directly on the fire.
What we eat is very fundamental to our health, we nourish our bodies with essential elements for sustaining life( carbohydrate, protein, minerals, lipids, vitamins, water). Every kind of food in its natural state that nature provided is enriched with with countless substances graced with medicinal and regulating properties that prevent illness, improves our health, and are essential for curing many ailments.
Some times the thought of just extracting everything that we need from food, concentrate and compress it and take it comfortably as pills or biscuits that are easy to store comes. Many have tried to do so but it seems like it cant really be achieved.
If food were reduced down to pills, we would always leave something by the wayside. If we ever come to the understanding of the full benefit of every last particle of food, we will understand that everything God provided for us to eat proves useful and extreemly necessary.

This is where my food talk ends for now........ #ilovefood
