  • It's AumSum Time.
  • What if we Only Ate Junk Food?
  • Not Good.
  • AumSum only eats healthy food.
  • Oh AumSum.
  • If we only ate junk food.
  • Happiness of people who love pizzas and burgers will know no bounds.
  • Our weight will definitely increase beyond bounds.
  • Dieticians may jump off to a different planet.
  • Gym owners may make a lot of money.
  • Pizza corners may get full, while salad corners may get empty.
  • Sellers of pizzas and burgers may suddenly become very rich.
  • Delivery guys may get super super busy.
  • Ketchup makes junk food tasty.
  • Some people may order a truckload of it.
  • People may become extremely overweight.
  • They may not be able to balance themselves.
  • Even aliens may start putting on weight.
  • Burnt toast is my favorite.
  • Oh AumSum.
  • Overcooking or charring the food from outside is in trend.
  • Because it adds a smoky flavor and enhances the taste.
  • However, experts believe that overcooking can have negative health effects.
  • Firstly, the longer you cook, the more nutrient loss occurs.
  • Secondly, overcooked food is hard to digest and metabolize.
  • Thirdly, when we cook starchy food at high temperatures for longer periods.
  • The naturally occurring sugar and amino acids react to form harmful carcinogens like acrylamides.
  • Whereas, overcooking of meat causes sugar, amino acids and a substance called creatine to react.
  • Producing carcinogens called heterocyclic amines.
  • Lastly, while grilling, fat from the meat can drip onto the burning coal.
  • Leading to the production of carcinogens called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
  • Hence, it is recommended to cook food just until it gets a golden yellow color.
  • Not until it turns brown or black.
  • However, there are some disadvantages of canned foods.
  • Firstly, canned foods can be high in sugar and salt.
  • So, they can pose a risk for people with high blood pressure, diabetes, obesity, etc.
  • Secondly, most cans have a coating of bisphenol A to prevent corrosion.
  • Studies suggest that bisphenol A can leak into the food.
  • And have negative effects on our hormones and reproductive system.
  • Thirdly, the acids present in food can react with the metal can and produce hydrogen gas.
  • Creating bulges, thus making food unsafe to eat.
  • Lastly, improper canning process can lead to growth of dangerous bacteria called Clostridium botulinum.
  • It produces a lethal toxin which if consumed, can paralyze our muscles and cause death if left untreated.
  • French fries are the best for me.
  • As food is pre-digested or broken down by bacteria, these foods are easier for us to digest.
  • Secondly, fermentation increases the nutritional value by producing beneficial enzymes and vitamins.
  • Thirdly, as microorganisms break down lactose present in the food.
  • Lactose intolerant people can eat yogurt and other fermented milk products.
  • Lastly, fermented foods contain probiotics which are good or friendly bacteria.
  • They improve our gut health, thus leading to a healthy immune system.
  • We have evolved to like salt maybe because our bodies need salt for survival.
  • What?
  • Salt for survival?
  • Indeed.
  • Sodium present in salt maintains our blood pressure, transmits nerve impulses, etc.
  • Whereas chloride is used to produce hydrochloric acid in our stomach.
  • Hence, to obtain salt, we have gradually developed a taste for it.
  • Thus, salt in food makes it appealing and tasty.
  • In addition to this, it is found that salt suppresses bitterness better than sugar.
  • Researchers aren't sure how.
  • Some researchers suggest that salt neutralizes the bitter tongue receptors.
  • While some suggest that on adding salt, the brain interprets the taste as less bitter.
  • Is expired food safe to eat?
  • No Problemo.
  • I'm a strong ass hole.
  • Oh AumSum.
  • Usually we see three types of dates on food products.
  • Sell-by, Best-by and Use-by.
  • Use-by is what we call the expiry date.
  • Consuming food past this date may prove to be harmful.
  • Firstly, the nutritional value of the food will reduce.
  • Secondly, as bacteria don't usually grow at low temperatures, many foods are frozen.
  • But if foods are kept at room temperature, bacteria will develop in them.
  • Now, if consumed, they can cause vomiting, diarrhea, food poisoning, etc.
  • Thirdly, it is believed that when canned food expires.
  • The acids present in food react with the metal can and produce hydrogen gas.
  • Creating bulges in the can and thus, making the food unsafe to eat.
  • So, expiry date is definitely a good indicator.
  • But apart from that, we should also rely on our senses of smell and sight.
  • To check the quality of the food.
  • Topic.
  • Human Nose.
  • Why does spicy food make your nose run?
  • Because it is not that strong to make me run.
  • No.
  • Our nose consists of tiny hair and a sticky substance called mucus.
  • Can I use this mucus to stick my broken vase?
  • Gross.
  • Please don't do that and listen.
  • During breathing, the hair and mucus trap harmful substances.
  • Thus prohibiting them from entering deep inside the body.
  • Now, spicy food items like chili, mustard, horseradish and wasabi.
  • Contain chemicals called capsaicin and allyl isothiocyanate.
  • When we eat such food items.
  • The capsaicin and allyl isothiocyanate travel through the pharynx and reach our nose.
  • Here, the chemicals activate the heat sensing receptors.
  • Thus causing inflammation in our nose and irritation of the mucus.
  • Hence, as a defense mechanism.
  • More mucus is produced in our nose to get rid of these chemicals.
  • Thus, making our nose run.
  • Why do we love junk food?
  • Because it looks cool bro.
  • No. We love junk food because manufacturers design it to activate our brain's reward system.
  • They create the perfect combination of salt, sugar, spices, etc.
  • Which excite our taste buds.
  • Thus activating our brain's reward system, making us feel good.
  • Now after this, when we eat regular food.
  • As it doesn't activate the reward system, it feels less appealing.
  • Besides this, if we compare these foods.
  • The quantity of healthy food looks more, right?
  • But surprisingly, they both contain the same number of calories.
  • What?
  • Yes.
  • Now, since healthy food also contains fiber and water.
  • They add up to the volume, thus filling our stomach.
  • But, as the junk food doesn't have enough water and fiber.
  • It doesn't fill us.
  • So, we keep eating and thus, end up consuming more calories.
  • Leading to obesity, diabetes, etc.
  • Why do birds need gravity to swallow food?
  • Maybe because they are fans of Newton.
  • No. When humans eat food.
  • It enters into a muscular organ called food pipe or esophagus.
  • In the esophagus, a series of contraction and relaxation.
  • Takes place that pushes or moves food towards the stomach.
  • This movement is called peristalsis.
  • Dude.
  • Why do you use such complicated names?
  • Oh. Please listen.
  • In most birds, such peristaltic movement doesn't take place in their esophagus.
  • Hence, they need to depend on gravity to push their food through the esophagus.
  • When a bird eats its food.
  • The bird lifts or tilts its head up and with the help of its tongue.
  • It directs the food towards the throat.
  • Then, the gravitational force of earth.
  • Causes the food to slide down into a pouch called crop.
  • Thus helping the bird to swallow its food.
