Cardiac surgeon named 4 products that actively poison the body.

According to ТСН: Famous cardiac surgeon Dr. Jeremy London published a video in which he identified four categories of foods and drinks to avoid as they "actively poison" the body.

This clip was posted on TikTok.

Fast food

"Most of what is sold in fast food chains is 'edible food-like substance', not real food," emphasizes the doctor.

Fast food is often viewed as a quick and convenient solution, however, its benefits for the body raise many questions. Although sometimes such food does not cause serious harm, if it becomes a permanent part of the diet, it should be taken into account.

Sugary sodas

In second place are drinks that are often consumed with fast food. This refers to both regular and diet sodas, which Dr. London calls "liquid death."

Most of these drinks contain a large amount of sugar, while alternatives often have ingredients that raise concerns among specialists.

Dairy products

Avoiding dairy products during the festive season is nearly impossible — they are present in chocolate, cheeses, and desserts. However, the doctor views them critically.

He notes: "We are the only mammals that drink milk after childhood, and moreover, milk from another species. Just think about that."

Alcohol

This point comes as no surprise. Regular alcohol consumption, which is a poison for the body and affects the ability to think clearly, is hard to call safe. Despite this, alcohol remains popular among many.

The doctor emphasizes that alcohol is "absolutely toxic to every cell in our body" and warns that even "moderate or occasional consumption" has a negative impact.

He urges to "stop actively poisoning your body," although he acknowledges that it is not easy to do during the holiday season.

Moreover, during the cold season, when seasonal affective disorder is common, experts emphasize that healthy eating is key to combating winter blues and depression. Dietitians Priya Thieu and Anna Daniels recommend six foods that enhance mental health, as "food can play a huge role" in this.

Dr. London's theses clearly demonstrate how important it is to monitor one’s diet. Despite the fact that many people are aware of the negative impact of fast food, sugary drinks, and alcohol, the temptations at festive gatherings remain strong. At a time when depression and boredom may intensify, doctors remind us of the importance of conscious food choices and ways to support good well-being.
