If your diet is controlled by corporations (prepared foods, restaurant foods) you probably carry a few extra pounds and either have or will have one or more serious diet related chronic diseases.
Reducing the number of prepared foods can reduce the number of calories and amount of sodium in your diet. One leads to weight gain, the other to hypertension. Your diet will also have less chemical additives and more natural ingredients.

FODMAPs (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols) are undigested sugars (carbohydrates) that can cause bloating, gas, nausea, and gut pain. FODMAPS are prebiotics that feed gut bacteria. They are in grains, fruits, nuts, seeds, dairy, legumes, and vegetables. Gastrointestinal discomfort some associate with antinutrients can be due to FODMAPS.

Food allergies can be serious even life-threatening. Most prepared foods list major allergens like eggs, milk, soy, and wheat, but there can be a warning in fine print about cross-contamination by other allergens.
A new trend to eliminate the need for a cross-contamination warning is adding the allergens to the food. This is convenient for the food maker, but reduces the variety available to consumers with food allergies.
