Industrial Food System
The industrial food system has detrimental effects on public health in various ways. The prevalence of obesity and diabetes can be attributed to the food industry's practices. Government policies encourage the consumption of unhealthy junk food, resulting in the production of nutritionally deficient food. Corporate food strategies have contributed to the rise of health issues, particularly obesity, among the American population. The American food policy prioritizes quantity over quality, leading to an excess of cheap, low-quality food. Support for large-scale farms and the industrialization of food production has further exacerbated the availability of unhealthy food options. The collaboration between big agriculture and the oil industry has accelerated the industrialization of food production. The use of artificial fertilizers has significantly boosted agricultural output. The food industry caters to consumer demand for processed foods, prioritizing convenience over nutritional value. While convenience foods offer ease of preparation, they often lack in taste and freshness.

What happens when we sleep?
It turns out that there are two separate processes in the brain that help us create sleep. One is called your Sleep Drive, and the other is called your Sleep Rhythm. Sleep Drive is a lot like hunger. Throughout the day, much like hunger, you get hungrier and hungrier, and when you eat, your hunger begins to dissipate. Similarly, when a cell eats a piece of glucose, something comes out the back end, and one of those things is called adenosine. Adenosine works its way through our system and gets to a very specific receptor site in our brain. As adenosine accumulates, you get sleepier and sleepier and sleepier. That's Sleep Drive.
