by regulating our potential excesses. The foods listed below are not bad in themselves, but as a result of the way we often mismanage our health, they have become foods some of us must eat with caution, or better still, avoid totally if we want to live healthy and strong.

The following are foods can pose a serious danger to your health. They work adversely by hijacking your hormones and your health. Getting rid of them is what is best for you.
     
    Fruits and vegetables that are contaminated .
    This is one point where we must all be very careful about where we get our fruits and vegetables. They must be of known sources or reliable sellers. Most fruits and vegetables like Apples, Celery, and Peaches have been shown to contain high amount of residues of pesticides. Pesticides are very harmful to our health and they are deleterious contaminants of food products. Many pesticides are very persistent on the treated materials. Quite a number of them cause hormonal imbalance, seizures, and twitching
     
    Alcoholic foods
    Generally in women, alcohol consumption results in premenstrual anxiety, weakness and loss of appetite. Though, there is a relaxation effect a cup of alcohol gives. However, it is not often without an adverse effect. Estrogen level can be raised seriously with more than 3 servings a week. Another effect is raising of cortisol in men. ! I will strongly advise that consumption be limited to about 2 cups a week if necessary do you can keep down your cortisol level.
     
    Gluten
    Research has shown that consumption of gluten affects the proper functioning of thyroid gland. It is of a truth that some foods are as though they cannot be done without. What then do we do when something that should be of benefit is killing us? Go for substitutes that have no adverse effect on your health.
     
    Dairy products
    The enzyme present in dairy products called has been shown to heighten the rate of inflammation consequently causing androgen increase. Acne as well results from the inflammation. I would suggest the removal of dairy for a couple of weeks.
     
    Foods high in Caffeine
    Perhaps it is sounding uninteresting a news to you right now but I think it is the best news you reading now. Do you know that even the small amount present in a soda or a coffee, can increase cortisol levels in your body and increase insulin resistance? Caffeine intake also lowers progesterone in women, leading to painful periods.
    If you are currently suffering from insomnia, or you are unnecessarily anxious, I will suggest you stay off the caffeine.
     
    Food high in sugar
    Can the sweetness of sugar be a good reason to consume it without considering a very terrible effect it can cause if taken too much? Diabetes has always been traced down to high sugar consumption. It also raises cortisol, responsible for stress. High cortisol can result in a very slow metabolism of food products, imbalance in sleep, and a weak sexual ability. Another effect is the hijacking of your thyroid.
     
    Foods that are processed
    Please understand this, I am not saying every processed food can bring you harm. However, a vast majority of processed food fall under the harmful category. The reason is because many of the processed foods contain preservative chemicals that interfere with your hormonal functions. That, of course, is the reason I advocate fresh food products.
     
    Liquid foods with high calories
    Quite a number of liquids we consume have hidden calories, and not very healthy ones at that. A reason to avoid juice in your diet is its glycemic index; the high carb count in juice causes a spike in blood sugar, which is never a good thing.
     
    Red meat
    Please note that this section is in no way saying that meat is bad. It’s just that an excess of everything is definitely bad. In this case, excess of meat is very bad for your health. Some have cultivated a bad habit of eating a lot of meat at a meal. Research has shown that a diet that is high in conventionally raised
