Orthorexia Nervosa

In today’s media driven world, eating disorders are becoming more and more prevalent. Bulimia…Anorexia…Binge-Eating Disorder. Now there is a new syndrome called Orthorexia: literally, the "fixation on righteous eating”. These are the people who are convinced that eating grinded flax seeds, soy milk, vegetarian-fed eggs with omega-h and an array of bizarre organic products will give them “The Golden Ticket” to The Willy-Wonka Factory in the Sky.
We all live at the hands of Fate. When you were born, Mrs. Fate issued you a ticket, and draws from a lottery. If your number is called…YOU DIE! There is no way around it. But these people suffering from Orthorexia Nervosa truly believe that if they inhale bee testicles from Shir-keika located within the Tibetan Mountains, they will be immune to cancer. Horseshit! That shit of course coming from an all-natural Australian, range-fed horse that was never in a feed lot. That’s good shit!
