Hardcore Facts About the Problems of Food Addiction and Recovery

Yes you may not even have heard of this problem before, but there is such a thing as food addiction and it is a problem that is getting worse among society as more and more people are getting addicted to food, and as a result are becoming overweight of even more worryingly obese. Usually this is the term used to describe a situation when a person who has many problems in their lives resorts to food as a comfort.

But as with most addictions, such as smoking which are hard habits to get out of, the problem of food addiction is something that can be recovered from easily. However to be able to tackle this problem in the person you need to first be able to figure out where the stress in his life is coming from.

The problems of food addiction, even when a person is not hungry is caused by some form of emotional issues that they person is experiencing. If the stress is not relieved or solved in any way then it can cause a problem of the person being stuck to eating a lot of food.

If food is treated as a tool for comfort, this can cause a lot of health problems for that person in the future, as most food addictions are related to bad foods that are high in sugar and not good for the health.

You should not consider yourself to have a food addiction if you overeat in occasions such as parties and holidays as it is often expected at these occasions to overeat. We all overeat on these occasions and we all go back to our normal way of eating when the festive periods are over.

The case for food addiction, is a problem that goes well beyond that. Its a problem where the person is experiencing some kind of emotional problem and as a result is constantly eating bad foods which can cause the person involved some serious health problems.

The problem can be seen in those people who are obese. The people that were once thin and are now seriously overweight, are in this position because of some kind of emotional problem that has caused them to make food their best mate in life, and instead of dealing with the problem they go on and continue eating.

Just as the addictions of drink and smoking are often tackled by replacing the habit with another activity such as exercise, the same can be done to tackle the problem of food addiction but along with this the person really needs to analyse where the stress is coming from and how to solve that problem.

How Our Chinese Culture Shapes Us to Who We Are

Asian men need to develop their own culture. The west has always dominated the world with their inventions and meanwhile Chinese have had 100 years taken away from them thanks to Mao’s cultural revolution. Since then it has been traditional of the Asian mindset not to challenge authority and not ‘reinvent the wheel.’ Meanwhile, western culture has thrived on borrowing the best from all other cultures and calling it their own.

In an age we live in now where China is becoming the 2nd largest superpower and overshadowing the west, a new cultural development is important.

We live in an age which has adopted the western mindset of borrowing and stealing and appropriation, and even mimicking. The human mind has less been encouraged to think of original ways of self-expression due to our easy technology and abundance of old art and TV series that we can just switch on with a click at our online disposal.

However the importance of creating a strong identity and powerful cultural dominance is important for China. One that can be expressed through the basics of what we have – language and race.

As already mentioned in this digital age it’s so easy to copy and mimic what is out there but for something that is profound and not so easily consumed – this is what a great culture should be. Like Chinese language, Chinese culture should be earned and enjoyed like a fine Chinese dish, and contemplated like good wine.

Ironically to create a new culture, Chinese need to move away from the mass consumption culture that currently floods the ‘global world’ that we know it as. Globalism is a good thing but the speed at which it has developed has affected and disabled everyone, and not even given us time to digest and appreciate.

When Chinese men can create a new culture, we can move forward to creating our new identity. One that is respected and attractive to all.

Chinese men, all around the globe need to take the time and patience to develop as artists and once they have reached a level of critical thinking then pursue the goal of becoming leaders. Leaders by its truest definition are people of vision who see a way that is clearer than other ways that have been established. New ways are developed because of the risk taken to develop those new ways.

Those risks that are taken have their own rewards. But they must be earned .
