Nature has provided humanity with opportunities for survival: abundant water, fertile lands, and materials for clothing and housing. The capitalist mode of production, which has prevailed for five centuries, is in crisis. The transnational corporations that sustain it, while producing useful and profitable goods, also produce harmful ones, requiring combustion that generates greenhouse gases. These gases cause global warming and, consequently, the calamities that result from it. Within the same capitalist historical context, the production of palatable, appealing, and long-lasting food and beverages has required the refining of sugar and grains, as well as the use of toxic additives such as flavorings, colorings, and seasonings. Humanity faces a dilemma: if it aims to preserve health and mental clarity, it must necessarily adopt a diet based on fruits, vegetables, and grains to provide itself with the necessary nutrients, such as minerals, vitamins, and essential amino acids.
