 Nearly everything on the market today -- including the skin care products sold at "natural" retailers like Whole Foods and Wild Oats -- is loaded with chemical additives and harmful ingredients. It's rare to find a company that makes genuinely healthful products for skin care. Pangea Organics (www.PangeaOrganics.com) is one such company that I've recommended for some time, and I recently found a new company from California that takes skin care products to a whole new medicinal level: Their products use herbs from the world of Chinese Medicine to enhance health while nourishing the skin. |

 Regular exposure of our "internal skin" to such acidifying and irritating components as the phosphoric acid and other chemical additives contained in colas, for example, can lead to suppurating wounds and the perforation of the intestinal walls. I often see this type of damage as advanced tissue erosion while examining the iris (iridology) of regular soft drink consumers. As a natural side effect of repairing such internal wounds, pus is formed. Pus is decayed cell-matter containing plenty of bacterial organisms. |

 These are, no doubt, the same parents who feed their children processed foods, soda pop and school lunches (which contain numerous harmful chemical additives such as sodium nitrite, sodium benzoate and artificial food colors).

 Because they contain chemical additives that are known to greatly increase the risk of various cancers, including colorectal cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer, leukemia, brain tumors, pancreatic cancer and many more. The report, published at this DietAndCancerReport.org website also recommends that consumers:
Avoid all sugary soft drinks for life.
Exercise at least 30 minutes a day.
Get lean and fit, without becoming underweight.
Limit consumption of ALL meats (even fresh meat).
Breastfeed all infants for their first six months, avoiding infant formula. |
| On top of these three chemical additives, processed meats also contain saturated animal fat that is often contaminated with PCBs, heavy metals, pesticide residues and other dangerous substances.
You can learn more about dangerous chemicals in the food supply in my book, Grocery Warning, available from Truth Publishing.
Or you can download my free Honest Food Guide from www.HonestFoodGuide.org which reveals the true health dangers of numerous chemicals added to processed foods. The Honest Food Guide has now been downloaded by over one million people. |
| What's next: The future of processed meats
My research tells me that chemical additives in processed meats are emerging as the next big food safety issue to hit mainstream awareness. Just a few years ago, most consumers had never heard of trans fats or the dangers of hydrogenated oils, for example. But once that issue went mainstream, fast food restaurants all over the country announced changes to avoid hydrogenated oils.
I believe that sodium nitrite in processed meats is the next big food safety issue that's about to break into mainstream awareness. |

 We will NOT promote products made with conventional dairy, refined sugars, chemical additives, artificial colors, yeast extract, etc. Don't even think about sending us a food bar made with sucralose or aspartame. (If we see products made with high-fructose corn syrup, we toss them into the round file.) We are only interested in extremely high quality, natural, earth-friendly products from high-integrity companies, period!
That's it. Enjoy! |

 Nearly all of them are laced with toxic chemical additives (such as coloring chemicals and chemical sweeteners), and virtually none of them do anything to actually help the body heal. Remember, too, that 16,500 people bleed to death out of their intestinal tract as a side effect from taking over-the-counter painkillers. The number of people killed by pharmaceuticals today is nothing short of astonishing. |

 There are many reasons to avoid eating such complicated food products beyond the various chemical additives and corn and soy derivatives they contain. One of the problems with the products of food science is that, as Joan Gussow has pointed out, they lie to your body; their artificial colors and flavors and synthetic sweeteners and novel fats confound the senses we rely on to assess new foods and prepare our bodies to deal with them. Foods that lie leave us with little choice but to eat by the numbers, consulting labels rather than our senses. |

| How much of your diet includes processed foods filled with toxic chemical additives and preservatives?
Even "healthy" foods such as fresh fruits and vegetables are not always as safe and nutritious as you might believe. Thanks to irresponsible commercial farming techniques that depend on chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and hormones to grow crops on already overworked land, a large percentage of today's produce supply has become saturated with toxins and has very little nutritional value. |

 Chemical Additives
Besides the nutritional disadvantages of cooking and refining foods, the modern high-tech diet is less nutritional because of chemical additives. Of the deleterious factors in overly processed foods, the use of additives is among the worst. Additives are small quantities of chemicals used to impart special properties to the final food preparation. They are designed to impart taste, to preserve, to color, or to emulsify. The number of chemicals used for these purposes runs into the thousands. |

 As a result of chemical additives and advanced methods for processing foods, the nutritional value of food just does not measure up anymore. According to Fitzgerald, "Numerous studies have shown that during the 20th century we lost about 85 percent of the nutrients in North America's crop soils. The bulk of the 90 nutrients essential to human health have been depleted from the soil by fertilizers, pesticides, herbicides, irrigation, acid rain and other factors. Then during food processing up to two-thirds of vitamin and mineral levels in most foods are eliminated. |

| With their immune systems impaired by large amounts of these man-made, acid-forming foods and the chemical additives they contain, children barely stand a chance of fighting off the normally harmless germs that are part of our natural environment.
The situation is worsened if children haven't been breastfed long enough to build up their natural immunity. Many infants are still being fed commercial formulas, and these contain rancid (oxidized) cholesterol which results from the milk-drying process. |

 As additional new polymer plastics followed in the tracks of artificial rubber and PVC, each required its own set of chemical additives. Plasticizers guaranteed the desired flexibility, stabilizers defended the polymer against degradation, and colorants provided aesthetic appeal and even practical advantages (especially in color-coded wiring insulation). For certain applications, especially when a polymer served as the basis of a synthetic coating, sealant, or bonding agent, the key additive would take the form of a solvent in an exact amount and of a specific kind. |

Amid all these new threats, old hazards remain as well. As a solvent for rubber cement, benzene has not been entirely removed from commerce either in the United States ot in Europe. Not surprisingly, in developing economies benzene is often minimally regulated, if at all. |
| This scrutiny is consistent with the FDA's primary jurisdictional responsibility for medications, but its recent track record hasn't indicated any better control of other substances in our environment that we are liable to ingest, such as herbal supplements and chemical additives.
The story of ephedra serves as one example of another such substance. Widely marketed in consumer goods, especially in herbal teas marketed as asthma self-treatments (as the Chinese remedy "ma-huang") and in over-the-counter stimulant aids, ephedra is a product over which the FDA claimed it had no jurisdiction. |

 Usually upon a judge's order, she began putting the prisoners on a diet that banned sugar, white-flour products, chemical additives, caffeine, and alcohol, and stressed fresh vegetables, fruits, water, healthy fats, lean meats, and fish.
"The results were astounding," she says. "Their behavior completely changed." A whopping 80 percent of probationers went on to become "productive members of society"—a complete reversal of the typical 70 to 85 percent recidivism rates.
It seems then that for certain people, aggression and blood sugar abnormalities go hand in hand. |

 This supplement contains no preservatives and no chemical additives. It's far superior to many cherry products on the market because it isn't an extract and it's not simply powdered cherry fruit: It's a unique concentrate based on a new fruit processing technology that packs an enormous amount of natural cherry medicines into a tiny (and delicious) softgel. (Vegans, please note this is not a 100% vegan product because the softgel is made with a small amount of gelatin mixed with beeswax. But you can do what I do and bite open the softgel, then eat all the delicious cherry concentrate inside! |

 The company is eco-conscious and dedicated to providing superior nutrition through whole grains, no refined sugars and no chemical additives, colors or preservatives. They even use innovative ingredients like hemp and pomegranate to create functional foods that are truly delicious and nutritious at the same time.
They also have products for children, puffed grains with zero sugar, and they use exotic grains like millet and kamut. They have hot cereals, cold cereals, breakfast waffles and much more that I can't even go into here. |

 Not only are the foods often fried, homogenized, hydrogenated and otherwise altered, they're also laced with chemical additives, taste enhancers, processed sugars, petrochemical food coloring and other unhealthy substances. Strangely, many parents actually reward their children for good behavior by buying them unhealthy fast food meals, thereby creating a psychological association between good feelings and junk food. |

 If you feed your kids sugar, white flour, toxic chemical additives, mind-altering pharmaceuticals and toxic shampoos, lotions and toothpaste, you're gonna end up with mutant children who aren't exactly Nobel Prize material.
This isn't rocket science. The real mystery is how the food companies keep getting away with all the denial of the evidence linking processed foods and beverages to childrens' health problems. I guess it helps that they influence the government regulators and practically own the mainstream media. |

 Grocery product makers are also adding various chemical additives to their "all natural" products, hiding them under innocent-sounding ingredients that don't raise red flags with consumers. Monosodium glutamate (MSG), for example, is a neurotoxic substance classified as an excitotoxin. Consuming it causes migraine headaches, endocrine system damage, loss of appetite regulation (leading to obesity), neurological damage in fetuses (when consumed by expectant mothers) and many other problems. This is well known throughout the industry. |
