Efrem: AHEAD ON

"NEWSWATCH," TED CRUZ AND

BERNIE SANDERS WIN BIG IN

WISCONSIN.

WE'LL BREAK DOWN WHAT LAST

NIGHT'S PRIMARIES MEAN,

AND WHETHER TRUMP AND

CLINTON ARE STILL ON TRACK

TO WIN.

PLUS, PERSECUTION IN

PAKISTAN, A TERROR GROUP

TARGETING CHRISTIANS IN

THE COUNTRY, AND LEARN HOW

YOU SHOULD BE PRAYING.

THEN...

THOSE CHIPS WILL COMPEL

YOU TO EAT MORE AND MORE

BEYOND WHAT YOU SHOULD,

AND YOU'LL GO BACK FOR

MORE BAGS AND MORE BAGS.

Efrem: ADDICTED TO

JUNK, WE'RE UNLOCKING THE

SCIENCE BEHIND PROCESSED

FOODS.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR

JOINING US FOR CBN

"NEWSWATCH."

I'M EFREM GRAHAM.

AS EXPECTED, THE VOTERS OF

WISCONSIN HAVE GIVEN TED

CRUZ AND BERNIE SANDERS

VICTORIES OVER THEIR PARTY

FRONT-RUNNERS, AND THAT

MEANS CONTESTED PARTY

CONVENTIONS MAY BE MORE

LIKELY THIS SUMMER FOR THE

REPUBLICANS AND POSSIBLY

EVEN THE DEMOCRATS.

OUR GARY LANE HAS MORE.

Reporter: IT WASN'T A

KNOCK-OUT PUNCH, BUT TED

CRUZ DELIVERED A BLOW TO

DONALD TRUMPP'S EFFORTS TO

WIN THE NOMINATION BEFORE

THE G.O.P. CONVENTION.

GOD BLESS THE GREAT

STATE OF WISCONSIN.

Reporter: OHIO

GOVERNOR JOHN KASICH CAME

IN A DISAPPOINTING AND

DISTANT THIRD, WINNING

ONLY 14% OF THE VOTE.

TONIGHT IS A TURNING

POINT.

IT IS A RALLYING CRY.

IT IS A CALL FROM THE

HARD-WORKING MEN AND WOMEN

OF WISCONSIN TO THE PEOPLE

OF AMERICA.

WE HAVE A CHOICE, A REAL

CHOICE.

Reporter: CRUZ SAID

HE IS TRULY UNIFYING THE

REPUBLICAN PARTY.

DONALD TRUMP RESPONDED,

SAYING THERE IS NO PARTY

UNITY, JUST AN ANTI-TRUMP

INITIATIVE LED BY THE

G.O.P. PARTY

ESTABLISHMENT.

BUT AMERICAN VOTERS MAY BE

MOVING TOWARDS CRUZ OVER

TRUMP.

CRUZ IS LEADING TRUMP FOR

THE FIRST TIME NATIONALLY,

39% TO 37%.

AND HE'LL STILL NEED TO

WIN 1237 DELEGATES TO GET

THE DELEGATIONS.

TRUMP HAS 740, CRUZ 514,

AND KASICH ONLY 143.

ON THE DEMOCRATIC SIDE,

THEY MADE HILLARY CLINTON

FEEL THE THE BURN.

WE WON IN WISCONSIN.

[APPLAUSE]

[CHEERING]

C Reporter: VERMONT

SOCIAL SENATOR BERNIE

SANDERS DECISIVELY BEATP@

CLINTON BY 10 POINTS.

WITH ALMOST 57% OF THE

VOTE TO HER 43%.

WE HAVE NOW WON SEVEN

OUT OF EIGHT OF THE LAST

CAUCUSES.

[APPLAUSE]

Reporter: BUT SANDERS

STILL NEEDS TO WIN ABOUT

67% OF THE REMAINING

DELEGATES TO SECURE THE

DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION.

2383 ARE NEEDED.

HILLARY CLINTON HAS 1743,

AND SANDERS, 1056.

WHILE THE MOMENTUM NOW

FAVOR SANDERS AND CRUZ, IT

CAN QUICKLY CHANGE.

DONALD TRUMP AND HILLARY

CLINTON ARE EXPECTED TO

WIN THEIR HOME STATE OF

NEW YORK WHEN VOTERS GO TO

THE POLLS FOR THAT PRIMARY

IN TWO WEEKS.

GARY LANE, CBN NEWS.

Efrem: MISSISSIPPI

GOVERNOR PHIL BRYANT HAS

SIGNED A RELIGIOUS

PROTECTIONS BILL AFTER IT

PASSED THE STATE HOUSE AND

SENATE LAST WEEK.

CHURCHES, RELIGIOUS

CHARITIES, AND PRIVATE

BUSINESSES WILL BE ABLE TO

REFUSE TO PARTICIPATE IN

GAY WEDDING CEREMONIES

WITHOUT FEAR OF

PUNISHMENT.

PROTESTORS SAY THE LAW

DISCRIMINATES AGAINST THE

HOMOSEXUAL COMMUNITY.

BUT THE LAW SAYS

GOVERNMENTS MUST STILL

PROVIDE SERVICES, BUT

INDIVIDUAL EMPLOYEES MAY

OPT OUT.

I THINK IT IS A GOOD

DEAL.

I THINK IT PROTECTS THE

PEOPLE WITH DEEPLY-HELD

RELIGIOUS BELIEFS.

SO DID THE LEGISLATURE AND

THE MAJORITY OF THE PEOPLE

OF THE STATE OF

MISSISSIPPI, SO WE SIGNED

IT INTO LAW.

Efrem: THE AMERICAN

FAMILY ASSOCIATION

APPLAUDED THE LAW, SAYING

THEY DIDN'T CAVE TO THE

PRESSURE OF THE LOCAL GAY

ACTIVISTS.

THE LAW GOES INTO EFFECT

ON JULY 1st.

> NORTH CAROLINA IS

PAYING A HIGH PRICE.

PAY PAL SAYS IT IS

CANCELLING ITS PLANS TO

BRING MORE THAN 400 JOBS

INTO THE CITY.

THE DECISION COMES AFTER

NORTH CAROLINA'S GOVERNOR

SIGNED A BILL REQUIRING

TRANSGENDERS PEOPLE TO USE

PUBLIC BATHROOMS ASSIGNED

TO THEIR BIOLOGICAL SEX,

RATHER THAN THE SEX THEY

IDENTIFY WITH.

PAY PAL'S PRESIDENT SAYS

THE NEW LAW RESULTS IN

DISCRIMINATION.

IT IS NOT CLEAR WHAT THE

NEXT STEP WILL BE FOR PAY

PAL IN NORTH CAROLINA.

THIS HAS A REAL IMPACT

ON CHARLESTON FAMILIES AND

NORTH CAROLINA FAMILIES.

I'M URGING OUR LEGISLATURE

TO FIND SOME KIND OF

LEGISLATIVE REMEDY AS SOON

AS POSSIBLE.

I'M GOING TO RESPECT

PEOPLE WHO DISAGREE WITH

OWITHOUR BASIC COMMON SENSE

RULES.

Efrem: PAY PAL WILL

BE SEEKING AN ALTERNATIVE

LOCATION FOR THEIR CENTER.

> THE IDAHO GOVERNOR HAS

VETOED THE BILL THAT WOULD

HAVE ALLOWED THE BIBLE TO

BE USED IN PUBLIC SCHOOL

CURRICULUM.

IT WOULD HAVE ALLOWED THE

TEACHERS TO REFERENCE THE

BIBLICAL FOR SUBJECTS LIKE

HISTORY, MUSIC, AND

HISTORY.

HE SAYS HE RESPECTS THE

BIBLE, BUT THE BILL WAS

UNCONSTITUTIONAL.

> THE TALIBAN THAT WAS

DEADLY FOR THE BOMBING IN

BRUSSELS IS PLANNING NORE

ATTACKS IMOREATTACKS IN THE DAYS AHEAD.

MORE THAN 360 PEOPLE WERE

INJURED.

NBC NEWS IS REPORTING A

SPOKESMAN FOR THE

TERRORIST GROUP SAYS THE

MEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THE

MURDERS WERE TRAINED IN

AFGHANISTAN.

GOVERNMENT LEADERS AROUND

THE WORLD CONDEMN THE

EASTER ATTACK, BUT

CHRISTIANS SAY MUCH MORE

NEEDS TO BE DONE TO

PROTECT THE BODY OF CHRIST

IN PAKISTAN.

> JOINING US NOW WITH

MORE FROM OUR W WASHINGTON

BUREAU IS WILSON CHOWDRY,

AND HE IS THE CHAIRMAN OF

THE GROUP CHRISTIANS IN

PAKISTAN.

HOW ARE THE CHRISTIANS

HOLDING UP AFTER THE

ATTACK?

THESE ATTACKS NEVER

STOPPED MY COMMUNITY FROM

GOING BACK TO CHURCHES.

IN FACT, THEY CAME CLOSE

TO GOD IN TIMES OF GREAT

DIVERSITIY.

HOWEVER, THEY ARE STILL

VERY TERRIFIED.

THEY DON'T BELIEVE THAT

THE GOVERNMENT IS DOING

ENOUGH TO PROTECT THEM.

Efrem: THE TALIBAN

FACTION RESPONSIBLE SAYS

MORE ATTACKS ARE COMING.

WHAT DO YOU THINK SHOULD

BE DONE?

WE NEED TO HAVE BETTER

SECURITY AT CHURCHES.

THE GOVERNMENT HAS FAILED

ON SEVERAL CASES.

THE CHURCHES ARE USING

THEIR OWN VOLUNTARY

SECURITY FORCES, AND THEY

AREN'T PARTICULARLY

TRAINED FOR THIS.

IF THE GOVERNMENT CAN

AFFORD IT, WHY NOT TRAIN

THESE PEOPLE TO HAVE

BETTER SKILL.

MORE TO THE POINT, THE

GOVERNMENT HAS TO CLAMP

DOWN AND CATCH THESE

TERRORISTS.

AFTER THE BOMBING, 5,000

ARRESTS WERE MADE, AND 200

CONVICTIONS WERE STARTED.

BUT I'M CONCERNED ABOUT

WHY IT WAS SO EASY TO FIND

THEM AFTER THE BOMB

ATTACK, AND NOT BEFORE.

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT

PAKISTAN HAS ONE FOOT IN

EACH CAMP.

Efrem: IT IS CLEAR

THE GOVERNMENT NEEDS TO BE

DOING MORE.

HOW ARE THE U.K. AND THE

U.S. RESPONDING?

YESTERDAY WE HAD A

PROTEST OUTSIDE THE U.N.,

AND AMERICANS AND BRITONS

COLLABORATING TOGETHER.

WE NEED TO RECOGNIZE THAT

CHRISTIANS ARE PERSECUTED,

AND NOT MERELY TARGETED.

AND WE NEED THE WESTERN

NATIONS TO ENGAGE BETTER

WITH PAKISTAN.

ABSOLUTELY NO CHANGES HAVE

BEEN MADE TO THE POOR

HUMAN RIGHTS RECORD.

WE'RE SAYING STOP THAT

FOREIGN AID UNTIL WE CAN

SEE A CHANGE THAT WILL

BRING EQUALITY TO THE

NATION THAT IS SUFFERING

GREAT DISTRESS.

Efrem: YOU WERE IN

NEW YORK YESTERDAY AND

WASHINGTON TODAY, AND WHAT

DO YOU WANT PRESIDENT

OBAMA AND MEMBERS OF

CONGRESS TO DO?

FIRSTLY, ENGAGE WITH

THE PRESIDENT OF PAKISTAN

AND ASK WHAT IS HAPPENING

ABOUT THESE TERRORISTS.

THE TERRORISTS SEEM TO BE

GROWING IN NUMBER, DESPITE

THE BILLIONS PLOWED IN BY

AMERICA TO SHARPEN UP THE

SECURITY IN PAKISTAN.

AND PRESIDENT OBAMA REALLY

HAS TO LOOK AT THE WAY

PAKISTAN PROTECTS ALL OF

ITS PEOPLE.

THE BLASPHEMY LAW PROTECTS

ONLY THE ISLAMIC FAITH.

PROMISES OF REFORM NEVER

COME TO FRUITION.

ALL WE'RE SEEING IS THE

LAWS ARE BEING

INCREASINGLY USED TO

TARGET CHRISTIANS, WHO NOW

MAKE UP 15% OF BLASPHEMY

CHARGES, DESPITE BEING

ONLY 1.6% OF THE

POPULATION.

IT IS EVIDENCE OF CLEAR

TARGETING OF MINORITIES IN

PAKISTAN.

THIS IS A GENOCIDE.

IT IS A GENOCIDE

NEVERTHELESS.

Efrem: HOW AND WHAT

SHOULD WE BE PRAYING FOR?

WELL, PRAY FOR THE

FAMILIES THAT HAVE BEEN

AFFECTED.

CHILDREN WHO ARE IN

HOSPITAL.

THERE IS A 3-YEAR-OLD

CHILD WITH PUNCTURED

LUNGS, HIS EYES BURNED

OUT -- THEY'RE NOT SURE

WHETHER IT IS A GIRL OR

BOY -- AND NO PARENTS HAVE

COME TO COLLECT THAT CHILD

FROM THE HOSPITAL.

PRAY FOR HEALING.

PRAY FOR RESTORATION.

PRAY FOR THAT CHILD'S

PARENTS TO COME FORWARD,

IF THEY'RE STILL ALIVE, OR

A FAMILY MEMBER, TO

DAYCARE OF THATAKECARE OF THAT CHILD.

PRAY FOR PEACE IN

PAKISTAN.

I THINK THIS ATTACK IN

ITSELF IS PROBABLY GOING

TO BE THE TRIGGER FOR

CHANGE THAT WE ALL WISHED

FOR BECAUSE THERE HAS BEEN

SO MUCH MEDIA ATTENTION.

PRAY THAT PEOPLE WATCHING

TODAY CONTACT THEIR

M.P.s, CONTACT THEIR

SENATORS, AND PRAY FOR

THAT PROTECTION TO COME TO

FRUITION.

Efrem: NUCLEAR

PROLIFERATION TOPPED THE

AGENDA THE THE WORLD

LEADERS GATHERING FOR A

NUCLEAR SUMMIT IN

WASHINGTON.

PRESIDENT OBAMA AND THE

PRESIDENT OF CHINA

EXCHANGED VIEWS, BUT

SAFEGUARDING KOREA FROM

NUCLEAR WEAPONS WAS THE

URGENT CONCERN.

WE HAVE THE STORY.

Reporter: CHINA AND

THE UNITED STATES LAST

WEEK REAFFIRMED A JOINT

COMMITMENT TO GLOBAL

NUCLEAR SECURITY AND

PLEDGED TO CONTINUE THEIR

PARTNERSHIP IN THIS AREA.

CHINA VOWED TO SPONSOR

TRAINING PROGRAMS FOR

OTHER COUNTRIES, TO

FURTHER PROMOTE GLOBAL

NUCLEAR SECURITY

AWARENESS.

DESPITE SOME DISAGREEMENTS

WITH THE UNITED STATES,

PRESIDENT CHI SAID THE TWO

COUNTRIES HAVE MUTUAL

INTERESTS THAT SHOULD BE

ADDRESSED.

Through Translator:

ON THE BASIS OF RESPECTING

EACH OTHER'S CORE

INTERESTS AND MAJOR

CONCERNS, WE SHOULD SEEK

SOLUTIONS THROUGH DIALOGUE

AND CONSULTATION.

Reporter: AS A

SUMMIT, PRESIDENT OBAMA

URGED CHINA TO USE ITS

INFLUENCE TO ELIMINATE

NORTH KOREA'S NUCLEAR

PROGRAM.

NORTH KOREA'S RECENT

MISSILES LAUNCHES HAVE

GONE AROUND THE WORLD.

President Obama: OF

GREAT PERSONS T IMPORTANCE TO US IS

NORTH KOREA'S NUCLEAR

CAPABILITIES.

PRESIDENT CHI AND I

COMMITTED TO FULL

IMPLEMENTATION OF U.N.

SANCTIONS.

Reporter: NORTH KOREA

CRITICIZED THE U.N.

SANCTIONS, AND SAID THE

U.S. SHOULD STOP SPREADING

THEIR OPINIONS.

WE STRONGLY CONDEMN AND

REJECT THESE WILD SANCTION

MANEUVERS AGAINST OUR

SHIPS BY THE U.S.

IMPERIALISTS AND THEIR

FELLOWS.

THE U.N. SECURITY COUNCIL

SHOULD ENSURE THE PEACE

AND SECURITY OF THE WORLD,

BUT IT HAS ABANDONED ITS

OWN MISSION AND DUTY.

Reporter: CHINA'S

PRESIDENT MEETS WITH

PRESIDENT OBAMA AGAIN IN

SEPTEMBER.

THAT'S WHEN THE G-20

SUMMIT WILL BE HELD IN THE

CHINESE CITY OF HUNG JO.

NORTH KOREA MAY AGAIN BE A

SUBJECT OF MUTUAL CONCERN,

BUT CLIMATE CHANGE AND

GREEN ENERGY MAY ALSO TOP

THE AGENDA.

MUNG SAN LI, FOR CBN NEWS.

Efrem: COMING UP,

ISIS DESTROYED THEIR

LIVES.

FIND OUT HOW CBN PARTNERS

ARE HELPING TO REBUILD

THEM.

Efrem: THE EX TERNAL

AFFAIRS FOR INDIA SAYS THE

CATHOLIC PRIEST HELD

HOSTAGE IN YEMEN IS ALIVE.

SEVERAL OUTLETS REPORTED

THAT FATHER TOM HAD BEEN

CRUCIFIED, BUT HE IS ALIVE

AND THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT

IS WORKING FOR HIS

RELEASE.

HE WAY TAKEN BY MUSLIM

MILITANTS WHO ATTACKED THE

CATHOLIC RETIREMENT HOME

IN SOUTH YEMEN.

THEY KILLED 15 PEOPLE IN

THAT ATTACK, INCLUDING

FOUR NUNS.

> WE'VE HEARD FOR MONTHS

ABOUT HUNDREDS OF

THOUSANDS OF REFUGEES

FLEEING FOR THEIR LIVES

FROM ISIS.

NOW WE WOULD LIKE TO

INTRODUCE YOU TO ONE OF

THOSE FAMILIES.

HAZAN AND AZIZA FLED FROM

KURDISTAN.

EVEN THOUGH THEY ESCAPED

FROM ISIS, THEIR TROUBLES

WERE FAR FROM OVER.

AND CBN IS STEPPING IN TO

HELP.

Reporter: AZIZA AND

HER TWO CHILDREN WERE

FORCED TO RUN THE NIGHT

ISIS ATTACKED THEIR HOME

IN SYRIA.

WE LEFT AT FAST AS WE

COULD, AND LEFT EVERYTHING

BEHIND TO BE DESTROYED BY

ISIS.

I ONLY THOUGHT ABOUT OUR

SURVIVAL AND GETTING TO

OUR HUSBAND IN KURDISTAN.

Reporter: THE BORDER

WAS CLOSED, SO THEY PAID A

SMUGGLER TO GET THEM TO

KURDISTAN.

I WAS SO HAPPY TO HOLD

THEM IN MY ARMS, BUT MY

BROTHER DIDN'T ESCAPE.

ISIS CUT HIM INTO PIECES

AND SENT ME THE PICTURES

ON MY PHONE.

NOW I SEE THAT IMAGE IN MY

HEAD EVERY DAY.

Reporter: THEY

QUICKLY FOUND OUT HOW HARD

LIFE IS FOR REFUGEES.

THE COST OF LIVING HERE

IS TOO HIGH.

AND THE COMPANY I WORK FOR

HAS REFUSED TO PAY FIVE

MONTHS OF WAGES THEY OWE

ME.

NO ONE IS WILLING TO HELP

US.

I'M ESPECIALLY WORRIED FOR

MY WIFE BECAUSE WE FOUND

OUT SHE IS PREGNANT.

MY HUSBAND HAS HIGH

BLOOD PRESSURE BECAUSE OF

HIS STRUGGLES, AND I AM

AFRAID HE WILL HAVE A

HEART ATTACK.

WE CAN BARELY BUY FOOD,

BUT THE HARDEST PART, AS A

MOTHER, IS NOT BEING ABLE

TO GET TOYS FOR MY

CHILDREN.

MY SON'S ONLY TOY IS

BROKEN, AND IT IS HIS

DREAM TO HAVE A

REMOTE-CONTROL CAR, BUT WE

CAN'T AFFORD IT.

Reporter: THE FAMILY

TOLD ME AZIZA CAN'T FIND A

JOB BECAUSE OF THE LOCAL

STIGMA AGAINST SYRIAN

WOMEN.

SO WE CAME UP WITH A PLAN

TO OPEN A WOMEN'S

ACCESSORIES STORE FOR HER.

WE HELPED HER BUY

EVERYTHING SHE NEEDED.

WE EVEN FOUND A STOREFRONT

CLOSE TO HER HOME AND PAID

THREE MONTHS' RENT IN

ADVANCE.

THIS WAS AN AMAZING

THING FOR YOU TO DO FOR

US.

YOU HAVE GIVEN US HOPE AND

BRIGHTENED OUR LIFE.

Reporter: CBN ALSO

GOT BLOOD PRESSURE

MEDICINE FOR HAZAN, AND

PRE-NATAL VITAMINS FOR

AZIZA.

BEFORE WE LEFT, WE HAD ONE

MORE SURPRISE: BRAND NEW

TOYS FOR THE CHILDREN.

I AM SO GRATEFUL TO GOD

FOR HAVING MET YOU.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR DESIRE

TO HELP US.

WE KNOW WHAT HISTORY

TOLD US ABOUT ISLAM, THAT

IT CAME WITH A BLOODY

SWORD.

BUT WE DIDN'T BELIEVE IT.

NOW WE HAVE SEEN THE

REALITY OF THAT.

AND WE HAVE SEEN

CHRISTIANITY, WHO CAME

WITH SUPPORT AND LOVE.

> UP NEXT...WE'LL HEAR

FROM AN INVESTIGATIVE

REPORTER WHO INFILTRATED

AMERICA'S LARGEST

PROCESSED FOOD COMPANIES

TO SPILL THEIR DEADLY

SECRETS.

Efrem: IF YOU WANT TO

LOSE WEIGHT, BEANS MIGHT

BE THE CURE TO HEALTH.

CHICKPEAS, LENTILS, AND

BEANS CAN HELP YOU FEEL

FULL AND GET RID OF THE

EXTRA FINDING.

ONE EXPERT TOLD HEALTH DAY

NEWS THE STUDY WASN'T

SURPRISING BECAUSE THESE

FOODS ARE FULL OF FIBER,

PROTEIN, VITAMINS AND

MINERALS.

WELL, WHEN IT COMES TO

HEALTH, PROCESSED FOOD HAS

BECOME PUBLIC ENEMY NUMBER

ONE.

OUR CBN NEWS HEALTH

REPORTER LORI JOHNSON MET

AN INVESTIGATIVE

JOURNALIST WHO WENT

UNDERCOVER TO LEARN THE

SECRETS OF THE PROCESSED

FOOD INDUSTRY, AND HOW

THEY'RE KEEPING US HOOKS.

Lori: PROCESSED

FOODS, WE KNOW WE SHOULD

STAY AWAY FROM THEM AND

THOSE SUGARY DRINKS, TOO,

BUT THEY'RE JUST SO HARD

TO RESIST.

THE FOOD THAT WE HATE

TO LOVE AND THAT WE'RE SO

TEMPTED AND WILL OVEREAT

IS A PROBLEM.

AND THE SOLUTION IS

GAINING CONTROL OVER THAT

FOOD.

Lori: MICHAEL MOSS IS

A PULITZER PRIZE WINNING

INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALIST

FOR THE "NEW YORK TIMES".

HE INFILTRATED AMERICA'S

LARGEST PROCESSED FOOD

COMPANIES.

IN THE BOOK "SALT, SUGAR,

FAT," HE EXPOSES HOW THEY

ADDICTED US.

THEY GOT PAID BY MAKING

PRODUCTS THAT ARE UTTERLY

IRRESISTABLE TO PEOPLE,

THAT ARE ULTRA CONVENIENT,

THAT WILL SIT ON THE SHELF

AND BE WAITING FOR YOU

WHEN YOU'RE READY TO EAT

THEM AND AT AN INCREDIBLY

LOW COST.

Lori: MAYBE A LOW

COST AT THE CHECKOUT LINE,

BUT WE PAY DEARLY LATER ON

WITH OUR HEALTH AND LOST

PRODUCTIVITY.

DOCTORS TRACE OUR OBESITY

EPIDEMIC BACK TO PROCESSED

FOOD, AND SO DO THE PEOPLE

MAKING THOSE PRODUCTS.

THE STARTLING THING IS

THAT THE FOOD INDUSTRY HAS

KNOWN FOR YEARS AND YEARS

THAT IT IS AT LEAST PARTLY

RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT.

Lori: PROCESSED FOODS

KILL WITH STAGGERING

AMOUNTS OF SALT, SUGAR,

USUALLY HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN

SYRUP, AND UNHEALTHY FATS.

I DON'T VIEW THE FOOD

INDUSTRY AS SOME EVIL

EMPIRE THAT INTENTIONALLY

SOUGHT TO MAKE US OBESE.

IT IS THEIR COLLECTIVE

ZEAL TO DO WHAT COMPANIES

DO, WHICH IS TO MAKE AS

MUCH MONEY POSSIBLE BY

SELLING AS MUCH PRODUCT AS

POSSIBLE.

Lori: INSIDE THESE

LABS OF THE PROCESSED FOOD

COMPANIES, SCIENTISTS USE

CUTTING-EDGE TECHNOLOGY,

FORMULATING WHAT IS KNOWN

AS A FOOD'S BLISS POINT.

THAT USUALLY MEANS ONE

THING: SUGAR.

PREPARED PASTA SAUCES

ON THE SHELF IN THE

GROCERY STORE ARE REALLY

SWEET.

THEY WILL HAVE THE

EQUIVALENT OF TWO OREO

COOKIES OR MORE OF SUGAR

PER TINY LITTLE HALF CUP

SERVING.

I STARTED MAKING MY OWN

PASTA SAUCE AND IT IS NOT

THAT HARD.

Lori: THEY ALSO LURE

US WITH TECTURE.

BY MANIPULATING A FOOD'S

CHEMICAL STRUCTURE,

SCIENTISTS ACHIEVE

ULTIMATE WHAT THEY CALL

"MOUTHFEEL," AND THEY

INVENTED WAYS TO DISGUISE

THE SENSATION OF BEING

FULL.

THOSE CHIPS WILL COMPEL

TO YOU EAT MORE AND MORE

BEYOND WHAT YOU SHOULD,

AND YOU'LL GO BACK FOR

MORE BAGS AND MORE BAGS.

Lori: PROCESSED

FOOD-MAKERS KNOW WE

CONSUMERS CARE ABOUT

NUTRITION, SO THEY DEVISE

MARKETING SCHEMES TO MAKE

THEIR PRODUCTS APPEAR

HEALTHY.

THEY'LL DIAL BACK ON ONE

BAD INGREDIENT, WHILE

SECRETLY PUMPING UP

OTHERS.

SO, FOR EXAMPLE, YOU

CAN FIND A YOGURT THAT

SELLS ITSELF AS BEING

LOW-FAT, BUT IT CAN AND

OFTEN HAS AS MUCH SUGAR IN

IT AND CALORIES AS A

SERVING OF ICE CREAM.

Lori: LABELS TAUT

HEALTHY INGREDIENTS LIKE

CALCIUM, OLIVE OIL OR

FRUIT, BUT THE AMOUNT OF

THE GOOD STUFF IS

MINISCULE.

A CLOSE LOOK STILL SHOWS

SHOCKING LEVELS OF SALT,

SUGAR, AND FAT.

THE GOOD NEWS IS WE CAN

RESIST THE TEMPTATION TO

BUY PROCESSED FOODS BY

COMING TO THE STORE FULL,

HYDRATED, AND ARMED WITH

THE A GOOD SHOPPING LIST.

AND DON'T BUY ANYTHING

UNLESS IT IS ON THE LIST.

SPEND MORE TIME ON THE

PERIMETER OF THE STORE,

WHERE YOU'LL FIND THE

FRESH FOODS.

WHEN YOU ARE IN THE CENTER

PART OF THE STORE, BE

WEARY OF THE PRODUCTS AT

EYE LEVEL.

GROCERS PUT THOSE ITEMS

RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOUR

FACE BECAUSE THEY SELL THE

MOST.

SO WHILE PROCESSED FOOD IS

DELICIOUS, CHEAP, AND

CONVENIENT, IT COULD RUIN

YOUR HEALTH.

THE EXTRA EFFORT TO EAT

FRESH FOOD WILL LIKELY PAY

OFF IN THE LONG RUN.
