  18. What’s In Spam? Mostly fat. The label shows how much fat is in one “serving.” How many servings are there in one can? In case it is too hard to read, it says, “6.”

  21. Which will fill you up more? This…

  22. …Or this?

  23. It is not just FAT that makes Spam such a loser.1 slice of Spam vs. ½ cup of black beans: (1/6th of can) When you compare Total Fat, Saturated Fat, Cholesterol, Sodium, and Fiber, which is best? And look! You even get a little more protein from the Black Beans.

  24. Is there anything good in a can of SPAM? • Protein – what other foods have protein besides foods from animals? • What other risks are known about processed meat, like hot dogs, bacon, SPAM? • Directly linked to type 2 diabetes • Linked to many types of cancer

When __ __ ___ that we eat builds up inside muscle cells, insulin cannot do its job. This leads to high blood sugar and diabetes. Dr. John McDougall likes to say, “The _ _ _ you eat is the _ _ _ you wear.”

  29. Inspiration In the Marshall Islands, where half of all adults have diabetes and canned meats are extremely popular, one grocery store owner has decided he will no longer sell this unhealthy food. He has also increased the variety of beans and grains he sells.
