@i This line really is the most meaningful:
"Around age 50, adults raised under sugar rationing tended to consume less sugar, eat smaller portions and maintain healthier, more diverse diets overall."
It's the choices made over a lifetime that add up. Gluttony is unhealthy at any age. And at any age, we could choose to fast from sugar, eat in moderation, and choose healthy foods, and receive a health benefit.
Wow, I had no idea that "confectioner's glaze", used as a coating on some chocolates, is a BUG SECRETION, in other places known as shellac or schellack.

This Fancy Feast Gravy Lovers cat food is the favorite food of at least one of my cats. But does Purina add waste products as a filler?
Wheat gluten is something my wife avoids, because it may cause her gastrointestinal upset. How could cats be any better at digesting it?

Destruction Can Be Good
Example: When you eat, your body destroys the food. But this destruction gives your body energy for its activity, and building blocks for tissue repair.
This is why God allows physical things to be destroyed, because everything material must be changed into spiritual, and this is a good, yet mysterious thing.
#Fluoride is a water contaminate, leading to the calcification of the pineal gland.
A few foods that help protect the gland, (because they contain phytate, which binds minerals)
lentils
bread (from whole-grain wheat or barley)
rice (whole grain has more phytate than white rice)
If you want a healthy and working pineal gland, avoid fluoride. Drink pure water, not contaminated water.
It's no longer a half-gallon carton of milk.
It used to be 2 quarts (half a gallon), but now it is only 1.8 quarts.
Their website still shows the old size, when it was bigger.

My wife was tricked. She came home and said she bought a gallon of milk (2 of these cartons), but actually we only received 0.92 gallon for our money.
