We asked the same question of those who take anxiolytics, drugs which are supposed to relax, but only 66% slept well. Orgasm is a good free sleeping pill, without a prescription and without side effects », summarizes the one who still works for SOS Médecin.

When I eat sausages, I want meat », he adds before warning about the nitrites contained in the package and the words “less 25% salt” displayed on the packaging. “ When there is this kind of name, it is because this product is basically full of additives and salt », further indicates Jimmy Mohamed.
Pressure from industrialists
Same observation for compotes to drink: “ We try to deceive ourselves by making us believe that we are eating fruit when it is actually compote. It’s better than an industrial cake but you eat it in how many seconds? Kids suck them up in two secondsbelieves Jimmy Mohamed. And then you’re hungry so you have another one. Results: you will take 20 or 30 grams of sugar in a few seconds. This compote helps when traveling or in transport but should never be replaced by fruit. “, he advises.
How do the industrial brands targeted by his videos react? “ Once, a major compote brand sent me a message to send me a somewhat bogus and biased study and try to manipulate me. I didn’t respond because it’s influence. I don’t particularly have problems with compote. I have more problems with Pim’s and Nutella », he further reveals.
