This Is One Of The Biggest Cancer Causing Foods, After Reading This You Will Never Eat It Again




A great number of adults, and numerous children, simply lose hot dogs. However, we are all aware of the fact that this food contains almost no nutrients.
Nevertheless, hot dogs are commonly included in the breakfast, along with bread, eggs, cheese, coffee or milk.
However, according to the American Institute for Cancer Research, the consumption of only one hot dog daily increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 21%. Moreover, children who eat 12 or more hot dogs during the month are more susceptible to developing some kind of serious disease, especially leukemia.
Namely, hot dogs are rich in numerous chemicals and artificial compounds which lead to various infections and malignancy. These cancer-causing agents hot dogs contain have the capacity to cause the formation of tumor in living tissue.
This is review of the contents:
  • Pork
  • Mechanically separated chicken
  • Mechanically separated turkey
  • less than 2% of salt
  • Flavor
  • Corn syrup
  • Dextrose
  • Sodium diacetate
  • Sodium nitrite
  • Sodium ascorbate
  • Sodium phosphates
  • Sodium lactate
Namely, as soon as the food is warmed, prepared meats contain nitrates and nitrites which form nitrosamines together with amines, and they are shown to be cancer-causing.
Furthermore, hot dogs contain numerous remains of animals, like skins, heads, fatty tissues, feet, and numerous other butcher by-items. What’s more, hot dogs contain even more awful additional items.
Namely, the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA), under the Freedom of Information Act, reported that numerous other unusual objects have been found in this food, such as maggots, rat legs, Band-Aids, disposable blades, parts of eyeballs, metal sections, and glass shards.
So, do you still plan hot dogs to be your next delicious meal?

14 Cancer-Causing Foods You Should Never Put In Your Mouth Again


Some estimates say that close to 70% of all cancer is preventable. Not eating these 14 foods is a good first step. ‪#‎healthyeating‬

 
By Elisha of My Health Maven via The Hearty Soul

 The American Institute for Cancer states on their website, “Research has shown that most cancers can be prevented. Scientists now estimate that 60 percent to 70 percent of cancers are all preventable through currently available information and simple changes in diet and lifestyle.” With that encouraging statement in mind, this article addresses changes you can make in your day to day dietary lifestyle that will not only improve your health, but help you to avoid toxins that can increase your chance of cancer

BPA lined cans- This ingredient found in hard plastics and resins is used to coat metal cans. Laboratory studies in cells and animals have linked BPA to cancer, infertility, diabetes and obesity. Unless a canned item is labelled BPA free, it’s likely to contain bisphenol-A (BPA). BPA can also be found in numerous plastic products and dental composites.

Cured and Smoked Foods- Nitrates and nitrites act as preservatives to prevent food from spoiling, they also add color to meats. When cooked, nitrites and nitrates change into by-products called N-nitroso compounds, such as nitrosamines and nitrosamides. N-nitroso compounds are associated with an increased risk of cancer.

Farmed Fish- According to Food and Water Watch, farmed fish contain higher levels of chemical pollutants than wild fish, including PCB’s a known carcinogen. Due to overcrowding in fish farms, fish are more susceptible to disease increasing the use of antibiotic use. They are also more susceptible to sea lice, which means they are also treated with pesticides.

GMOs– Sadly GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) have infiltrated our food supply at an alarming rate. GMO foods should be avoiding. Look for GMO free labels on foods. To learn more about GMOS and their health risks go to: http://www.responsibletechnology.org/gmo-education

Grilled Meat- Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs, are produced through certain types of combustion, such as the burning of coal or wood. An additional problem is created when fat from meat drips onto a fire, creating   a flare up and smoke, this allows the PAHs yo affix themselves to the food you’re cooking increasing your risk for carcinogenic exposure.

Hydrogenated Oils- Hydrogenated oils, also known as trans- fats are a man-made product. These oils have a chemical structure that has been altered to prevent the product from going rancid in order to increase their shelf life. The Harvard School of Public Health notes that trans fats promote immune system over-activity and inflammation and are linked to heart disease, stroke and diabetes, among other chronic diseases. In addition to being chemically extracted from their source, chemicals are also used to mask the odor and change the taste of the oil.

Microwave Popcorn– These bags are lined with Perfluoroalkyls, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) to prevent oil from soaking through the packaging. When heated, these chemicals leach into the popcorn; when ingested, they show up as blood contaminants. PFOA has been associated with tumors in animal organs (liver, pancreas, testicles and mammary glands in rats), and increases in prostate cancer in PFOA plant workers.

Non Organic Fruits & Vegetables– Conventionally grown crops are grown with pesticides, herbicides and GMO seeds. All of which are hazardous to your health. To learn more about the hazards of eating conventionally grown food read EWG’s 2015 “Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce” http://www.ewg.org/foodnews/dirty_dozen_list.php

Processed foods– Cured meats tend to be high in nitrites and nitrates, preservatives that can, in large amounts, potentially increase your risk of stomach and other cancers. Processed foods are generally full of white flours, sugars, oils, colors, flavorings and other unhealthy ingredients.

Refined Sugars- Researchers have found links between sugar and numerous issues such as unhealthy levels of blood fats, low HDL levels, increased risk for heart disease, higher blood triglyceride levels, obesity, immune suppression, arthritis and a host of other ills. Cancer cells thrive on sugar.

Soda/ Sports Drinks- There is no nutritional value in drinking soda or sports drinks. These drinks contain high fructose corn syrup, sugar, dyes, brominated vegetable oil (a flame retardant), aspartame and other chemicals. They rob your body of much needed vitamins and minerals.

Soy Protein Isolate– 90-95 percent of U.S.-grown soybeans, used to create soy protein isolate, are “Roundup ready,” which means they have been genetically altered to withstand herbicides. According to the American Dietetic Association, soy protein isolates are known to contain anti-nutrients that can develop or delay the body’s ability to digest food and absorb the nutrients into the blood stream. Soy goes through a highly industrial manufacturing process of acid washing in aluminum tanks. Aluminum is highly toxic to the nervous system and kidneys

Sugar- Cancer cells thrive on sugar and any food that converts to sugar, such as grains, pastas, carbs, breads and most fruits. So for those who are dealing with cancer, eliminating sugar is key. For those who are looking to maintain health, eating a balanced diet that includes fruit is not as big of an issue.

White Flour- Commercially grown grains begin with seeds that are treated with fungicide. The plants are then sprayed with pesticides. They are harvested and stored in bins coated with insecticides. Which all increase your toxic load. Grains are then processed in high temperature, high speed rollers. Chlorine oxide in the form of a chlorine gas bath is used as a whitener, as well as an aging agent. What you end up with is a starch devoid of nutrients and full of toxins.

8 Cancer Causing Foods You Should Stop Eating Immediately



This is very real and I hope you take seriously.


The lining of microwave popcorn bags causes immune system and liver damage.

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), found in the lining of the bag, is linked to many health problems, according to a recent study from UCLA. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) recognizes the perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) in microwave popcorn bag linings as “likely” carcinogenic, and several independent studies have linked the chemical to causing tumors.

Canned Food

BPA liners are added to the inside of cans to prevent the liquid inside from coming into contact with the metal in the can.

BPA is an industrial chemical that has been used to make certain plastics and resins since the 1960s. BPA (Bisphenol A) mimics estrogen in our bodies, binding to the same receptors as natural female hormones which might be damaging. BPA is a  hormone disruptor  that has been linked in animal studies to cancer, obesity, infertility and diabetes.

Diet Soda

Aspartame causes a dose-dependent increase in cancers (lymphomas, leukemias and breast cancers) when consumed at levels approaching those consumed by humans in diet soft drinks.
A recent scientific review issued by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) of more than 20 separate research studies found that aspartame, one of the most common artificial sweeteners, causes a range of illnesses including birth defects and cancer.

GMO Foods

Let’s admit, most food in America is genetically modified.  With wheat, corn and soy being 90% GMO, it is hard to avoid it. Why are GMO’s  so dangerous?  Well, Genetic modification creates new proteins the human body has never before seen. They become these foreign organisms which our bodies try to attack and destroy. It causes our bodies to be under constant stress which in turn creates inflammation and can lead to cancer.

Farmed Salmon

According to one of the studies, Farm-raised salmon contains significantly higher concentrations of PCBs, dioxin and other cancer-causing contaminants than salmon caught in the wild. Farmed fish contain higher concentrations of contaminants than wild fish largely because they are fed meal that consists of ground-up fish tainted with contaminants. Many researchers are convinced that  eating farmed salmon leads to an increased cancer risk due to high amounts of PCB’s the low-quality of nutrients.

Vegetable Oils

Vegetable oils alter the structure and flexibility of cell membranes throughout the body, which can lead to a host of debilitating diseases such as cancer. Vegetables Oils are really high in PUFA (polyunsaturated fats). The entire composition of our bodies is around 97% saturated and monounsaturated fat. In order to renew and rebuild our cells, our bodies require fat. And if we constantly give it unhealthy and unnatural fats, it will use them with the sad end results.  Vegetable Oils are dangerous for your health as they get oxidized right away when they are subjected to heat. This leads to creation of free radicals which, as we know, contribute to premature aging and many diseases.

Processed Meat

One of the largest studies to address this question, published online March 7 in BMC Medicine, found a moderate positive association between processed meat consumption and mortality. Both sodium nitrite and sodium nitrate contained in processed meat have been linked to significantly increasing the risk of colon and other forms of cancer

Refined Flour

A new study published in the journal Cancer Epidemiology, Mile Markers, and Prevention is presenting evidence of the link between the consumption of refined carbohydrates and cancer.

Hot Dog Cancer Risks




Processed meats no doubt contribute to a large number of childhood cancers. According to the National Cancer Institute, over 1,500 children die each year in the United States from childhood cancer (http://www.cancer.gov/cancertopics/factsheet…).
According to a L.A. Times article:
Children who eat more than 12 hot dogs per month have nine times the normal risk of developing childhood leukemia, a USC epidemiologist has reported in a cancer research journal. Two other reports in the same issue of Cancer Causes and Control suggest that children born to mothers who eat at least one hot dog per week during pregnancy have double the normal risk of developing brain tumors, as do children whose fathers ate hot dogs before conception.

 Hot Dog Cancer Risks

here are the chemical additive ingredients that cause cancer and other diseases. Here are the ingredients for Oscar Meyer hot dogs:
MECHANICALLY SEPARATED TURKEY, PORK, MECHANICALLY SEPARATED CHICKEN, WATER, CONTAINS LESS THAN 2% OF SALT, FLAVOR, SODIUM LACTATE, CORN SYRUP, DEXTROSE, SODIUM PHOSPHATES, SODIUM DIACETATE, SODIUM ASCORBATE, SODIUM NITRITE.
Denise Snyder, MS, RD, CSO, LDN, a Duke nutrition researcher with an emphasis in cancer survivorship, says that even when eaten in moderation, hot dogs are a risky food. She points to research showing that eating 3.5 ounces of processed meat every day (24.5 ounces per week) increases the risk of colorectal cancer by 36 percent when compared to someone who eats no processed meat.

14 Cancer-Causing Foods You Should Never Put In Your Mouth Again





On their cite, The American Institute for Cancer states that “Exploration has demonstrated that most cancers can be avoided. Researchers now guessed that 60 percent to 70 percent of tumors are all preventable through as of now accessible data and straightforward changes in eating regimen and way of life.”

This is an empowering explanation, so this article will point at those cancer- causing foods that should be avoided in your regular dietary way of life, in order to discard toxins that can expand your possibility of cancer and thus enhance your wellbeing.

1. Sugar


For the individuals who are facing up with cancer, the key is to eliminate the sugar. Cancer cells advance in sugar and any nourishment that changes over to sugar, for example, grains, pastas, carbs, bread and most organic products. For the individuals who want to maintain wellbeing, having balanced eating routine that incorporates organic products is the best alternative.

2. Non-organic fruit and vegetables


Non- organic fruits and vegetables are developed with GMO seeds, pesticides and herbicides. All of these are dangerous to your health.

3. Hydrogenated oils


Hydrogenated oils, otherwise called trans-fats, are in fact, a man-made product. The Harvard School of Public Health states that trans-fats advance immune system over-action and inflammations are connected to coronary illness, stroke and diabetes, among other endless infections.
Their synthetic structure has been adjusted to keep the item from going rancid with a specific end goal to expand their timeframe of life. Chemicals are likewise used to mask the smell and change the essence of the oil.

4. Processed foods


Nitrites and nitrates which are in high amounts present in cured meats, which are additives that can, in vast sums, conceivably expand your danger of stomach and different tumors. Prepared foods are brimming with sugars, oils, colors, white flours, flavorings and other horrible ingredients.

5. Soy protein isolate


The American Dietetic Association indicates that soy protein isolates are known to consist of anti-nutrient that can create or delay the body’s capacity to process food and absorb the supplements into the circulatory system. 90-95 percent of U.S. -- developed soybeans, used to make soy protein separate, are “roundup prepared,” which means that they have been hereditarily changed to withstand herbicides.

Soy undergoes acid washing in aluminum tanks industrially, and aluminum is profoundly poisonous to the nervous system and kidneys.

6. Cured and smoked foods


Apart from being used as additives to keep food from rotting, nitrates and nitrites are also used to add color to meats. When cooked, nitrites and nitrates change into by-items called N-nitroso mixes, for example, nitrosamines and nitrosamides. N-nitroso mixes are connected with an expanded danger of cancer.

7. GMOs


GMO (Genetically Modified Organisms) food ought to be avoided. However, these harmful food items have penetrated our nourishment supply at a dangerous rate.

8. Grilled meat


PAHs, or polycyclic scented hydrocarbons, are delivered through specific sorts of burning, for instance, the burning of coal or wood. The danger for cancer-causing presentation is expanded by the extra issue which is created when fat from meat trickles onto a flame. Then, in case of a sudden outbreak and smoke, the PAHs join themselves to the nourishment you are cooking.

9. BPA lined cans

Laboratory studies in cells and animals have connected BPA to cancer, impotence, diabetes and obesity. This component found in hard plastics and sticky substance is used to coat metal cans. It can also be found in various plastic items and dental composites. Unless a canned thing is named BPA free, it most probably contains bisphenol-A (BPA).

10. Farmed fish


Farmed fish contain more prominent levels of chemical pollutants than wild fish, including PCB’s a known cancer-causing agent, according to Food and Water Watch. Fish are more likely to be influenced by sickness expanding the utilization of anti-infection utilization, as a result of overcrowding in fish ranches. Moreover, they are more vulnerable to sea lice, which implies they are additionally treated with pesticides.

11. White flour


The seeds from which are developed the commercial grains are treated with fungicide. The plants are then splashed with pesticides, and collected and put away in bins covered with bug sprays. Grains are then prepared in high temperature speed rollers. Chlorine oxide as a chlorine gas shower is used as a whitener, and in addition as a maturing agent. In the end, the starch we are buying has no supplements and is brimming with poisons.

12. Microwave popcorn


Microwave popcorn are lined with perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), Perfluoroalkyls and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) to keep oil from dousing through the packing. When warmed, these chemicals filter into the popcorn and act as blood contaminants when ingested. PFOA has been linked to tumors in animal organs (liver, pancreas, testicles and mammary organs in rats), and grows in prostate cancer in PFOA plant specialists.

13.Soda- sports drinks


Drinking soda or sports d rinks possess no dietary quality. In contrary, these beverages contain brominated vegetable oil (a fire resistant), aspartame, high fructose corn syrup, sugar, colors, and different chemicals.

14.Refined sugars


The link between sugar and various issues has been scientifically discovered, for example, sugar is related to low HDL levels, corpulence, immune suppression, expanded danger for coronary illness, undesirable levels of blood fats, higher blood triglyceride levels, joint inflammation and a large group of different ills. As mentioned, tumor cells advance in sugar.

13 Foods With Hidden Cancer-Causing Titanium Dioxide – Avoid These At All Costs




Walk into any pharmacy, grocery store, or health food store, and the choice of health products and supplements is overwhelming. How can the average consumer figure out what they should and should not get? One of the best ways is to read the ingredient list. Many supplements contain chemical-sounding names as additives and coloring agents. One has to question whether or not these are safe, and also question the motives of a company who is using these unsafe ingredients in its products. One major additive you should be watching out for is titanium dioxide, which may contribute to the development of cancer and other health issues.

Is This Popular Additive Lurking in Your Cupboard?

Titanium dioxide is a common additive in a number of food and cosmetic products. Although titanium dioxide is found in nature, the particle is a metal that is attracted to impurities. Manufacturers process titanium dioxide through a chemical process to remove impurities and create a white powder.  Its industrial applications are a result of its whitening effects, lack of odor, good absorbency, and anti-caking properties.
The most significant usage for titanium dioxide is as a pigment to color and thicken paints. It is also found in sunscreen, supplements, and medications, particularly those that come in a white tablet form. Additionally it is used as a coloring agent in foods such as the white powder on donuts and other pastries.
Here are some of the foods that may have titanium dioxide. Be sure to check the ingredient lists of foods in both your pantry and fridge:
  • Condiments including mayonnaise, mustard, horseradish cream, and vinegar
  • Nut spreads such as almond and peanut butter
  • Confectionery sugar
  • Desserts such as custard, tapioca pudding, sherbet, and sorbet
  • Sausages
  • Energy drinks labeled as “sport,” “energy,” or “electrolyte” beverages with a water base
  • Cottage, cream, and processed cheeses
  • Processed deli meats
  • Canned fish products
  • Dairy drinks including chocolate milk, eggnog, kefir, or whey-based drinks
  • Prepared foods such as potato and macaroni salad, and foods containing battered fish or poultry
  • Processed snacks such as Twinkies and powdered donuts
  • Although not a food, oral supplements can also contain titanium dioxide

The FDA’s Stance on Titanium Dioxide

Many individuals question the regulations and standards that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) sets up when it comes to pharmaceutical medications and food based ingredients. Titanium dioxide is another confusing one as the FDA categorizes it as both a “natural coloring agent,” and a “synthetically prepared” ingredient.
Research supports the idea that microscopic sized particles such as titanium dioxide may be hazardous to human health. Despite this understanding, the FDA regulates titanium dioxide as a Generally Required as Safe (GRAS) substance. The FDA has established concentration guidelines but does not require the ingredients to be listed on labels.

Nanoparticle Exposure Creates Risks

Titanium dioxide is used as nano-particle particulate, which means that it is super small in size. This plays an important role in product manufacturing but it can also be hazardous to human health. This super small size is useful for products such as sunscreen because the larger sized particles will remain visibly white and not blend into the skin barrier.
If you are looking at your phone or computer, you may notice a cluster of dust particles. Each of these dust particles will range in size from 3,000 to 9,000 nanometers (nm). Titanium dioxide and other nanoparticles may be utilized in products at the size of 2-5 nm. At that size the particles can have serious health consequences if digested.

Titanium Dioxide Dangers: Do Nanoparticles Cause Cancer?

Although nano-sized titanium dioxide may be in small concentration, their presence alone may pose a significant carcinogenic hazard to human health. Animal studies using nanoparticles have shown evidence of increased risk of developing cancer both in the lungs when the nano-particles were inhaled, and in the skin when it was applied topically.
The scientific community has yet to do an in depth analysis of nano-particle technology and its effects on human health. Unfortunately, these particles are being used by most individuals in western society on a daily basis despite the lack of scientific analysis on their safety.

Titanium Dioxide Particles Promote Inflammation

Titanium dioxide particles have been linked to increased oxidative stress.  Oxidative stress is a condition characterized by free radical damage within the body that causes cellular instability and chronic inflammation. This state of high oxidative stress stimulates cellular and DNA damage and is a major player in the formation of cancer cells and other chronic disease states.
These nano-sized titanium dioxide particles are able to slip through the gut lining and into the blood stream. They are also able to escape the immune system’s natural defenses and are able to float around in the blood stream and interfere with key biological functions.
A growing body of evidence supports that 500 nm sized titanium dioxide particles (at least 5 times larger than the size of nano-particles also found in food) can be absorbed through the gastrointestinal tract and stored in organs such as the liver and spleen. Smaller particles (ranging from 80 nm to 155 nm) had detectable damage to not only neighboring organs of the digestive tract, but also to the brain.
Findings have shown that titanium dioxide exposure increases free radical stress, reactive oxygen species formation, and chronic inflammation throughout the body. This process may promote cell proliferation and deactivate normal cell apoptosis processes that control cancer cell development.
The presence of a protein known as PAD (peptidylarginine deiminase) appears to be induced when in the presence of titanium dioxide particles. PAD is present in cellular conditions exhibiting increased oxidative stress and inflammation.

Where Do You Go From Here?

Titanium dioxide is a widely used additive in food, cosmetics, medication, and supplement products that are commonly used in the western world. Based on the scientific literature and lack of proper safety analysis, you should take caution when seeing this compound listed on a product.
As always, it is important to read ingredient lists even in so called health foods, supplements and drugs to ensure your products don’t contain this potential cancer causing additive.
Manufacturers do respond to public pressure. Earlier this year the giant food chain Dunkin’ Donuts announced that it was eliminating nano-titanium dioxide from its powdered sugar donuts.1 This shows that some manufacturers are aware of titanium dioxide dangers and are willing to eliminate this ingredient when pushed to do so.

Processed Meat Now Officially in Same Risk Category as Tobacco and Asbestos




 The World Health Organization (WHO) is adding strong corroboration to a startling claim that many nutritionists and health experts have been making for years: processed meat causes cancer. Additionally, red meat, including beef, pork, lamb and veal is “probably carcinogenic.”
WHO released the statement based on the evidence gathered by a team of 22 scientists. After reviewing a series of studies — which includes comprehensive literature on colorectal cancer published in 2011 by the World Cancer Research Fund — the team found consumption of red and processed meat causes a 16 percent increased risk of cancer per 100 grams. According to the study, the increased risk includes colorectal cancer, pancreatic cancer, and prostate cancer.
The International Agency For Research on Cancer says the new evidence elevates processed and red meats — including most grocery store sandwich meat, bacon, and sausage — into the same category as tobacco and asbestos, a “group 1” carcinogen. The study does not mention grass-fed or organic sources of red meat decreasing the risk.
Proximity to the cooking flame may factor into the creation of carcinogenic properties, although WHO can’t yet state the exact mechanism by which this would occur. According to an article by Forks Over Knives posted last year:
“It could be the heterocyclic amines — carcinogens that form as meat is cooked. It could also be the polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons or the heme iron in meat, or perhaps its lack of fiber and paucity of antioxidants. But really the situation is like tobacco. We know tobacco causes lung cancer, even though no one yet knows exactly which part of the tobacco smoke is the major culprit. And although meat-eaters clearly have higher cancer rates, it is not yet clear which part of meat does the deed.”
The article goes on to state that the links between red meat and cancer have actually been known since 1907, when the New York Times reported that a seven-year epidemiological study showed meat eaters had an increased risk of cancer.
The Forks Over Knives article reports that more widespread acceptance of this information may have been buoyed by two far more recent studies: “the 2009 NIH-AARP study, with half a million participants; and a 2012 Harvard study with 120,000 participants.”
WHO officially recommends “consuming a healthy diet with an emphasis on plant foods and limiting consumption of processed meat and red meat.”
It begs the question: how long have commercial meat companies known about the danger of their products? As with tobacco and asbestos — which processed and red meat now equals in cancer risk — it certainly seems possible there was some effort to ignore or cover up associated health risks.
With an increasing body of evidence suggesting these various forms of meat dramatically increase the risk of cancer, it remains to be seen whether mainstream health institutes and media networks will push for labels or public disclosures from corporations that produce these products. World organizations’ recent advocacy for synthetic meat and major profit blows to fast food establishments like McDonald’s could be signs we are experiencing the development of a large movement to reduce the world’s dependence on animal agriculture, which researchers have already shown is detrimental to the environment.

FDA Finally Admits Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic





After years of sweeping the issue under the rug and hoping no one would notice, the FDA has now finally admitted that chicken meat sold in the USA contains arsenic, a cancer-causing toxic chemical that’s fatal in high doses. But the real story is where this arsenic comes from: It’s added to the chicken feed on purpose!


Even worse, the FDA says its own research shows that the arsenic added to the chicken feed ends up in the chicken meat where it is consumed by humans. So for the last sixty years, American consumers who eat conventional chicken have been swallowing arsenic, a known cancer-causing chemical. 
Until this new study, both the poultry industry and the FDA denied that arsenic fed to chickens ended up in their meat. The fairytale excuse story we’ve all been fed for sixty years is that “the arsenic is excreted in the chicken feces.” There’s no scientific basis for making such a claim… it’s just what the poultry industry wanted everybody to believe.
But now the evidence is so undeniable that the manufacturer of the chicken feed product known as Roxarsonehas decided to pull the product off the shelves . And what’s the name of this manufacturer that has been putting arsenic in the chicken feed for all these years? Pfizer, of course — the very same company that makes vaccines containing chemical adjuvants that are injected into children.

Technically, the company making the Roxarsone chicken feed is a subsidiary of Pfizer, called Alpharma LLC. Even though Alpharma now has agreed to pull this toxic feed chemical off the shelves in the United States, it says it won’t necessarily remove it from feed products in other countries unless it is forced by regulators to do so. As reported by AP:
“Scott Brown of Pfizer Animal Health’s Veterinary Medicine Research and Development division said the company also sells the ingredient in about a dozen other countries. He said Pfizer is reaching out to regulatory authorities in those countries and will decide whether to sell it on an individual basis.” 

Arsenic? Eat more!

But even as its arsenic-containing product is pulled off the shelves, the FDA continues its campaign of denial, claiming arsenic in chickens is at such a low level that it’s still safe to eat. This is even as the FDA says arsenic is a carcinogen, meaning it increases the risk of cancer.
The National Chicken Council agrees with the FDA. In a statement issued in response to the news that Roxarsone would be pulled from feed store shelves, it stated, “Chicken is safe to eat” even while admitting arsenic was used in many flocks grown and sold as chicken meat in the United States.
What’s astonishing about all this is that the FDA tells consumers it’s safe to eat cancer-causing arsenic but it’s dangerous to drink elderberry juice! The FDA recently conducted an armed raid in an elderberry juice manufacturer, accusing it of the “crime” of selling “unapproved drugs.” Which drugs would those be? The elderberry juice, explains the FDA. You see, the elderberry juice magically becomes a “drug” if you tell people how it can help support good health.
The FDA has also gone after dozens of other companies for selling natural herbal products or nutritional products that enhance and support health. Plus, it’s waging a war on raw milk which it says is dangerous. So now in America, we have a food and drug regulatory agency that says it’s okay to eat arsenic, but dangerous to drink elderberry juice or raw milk.
Eat more poison, in other words, but don’t consume any healing foods. That’s the FDA, killing off Americans one meal at a time while protecting the profits of the very companies that are poisoning us with their deadly ingredients.
Oh, by the way, here’s another sweet little disturbing fact you probably didn’t know about hamburgers and conventional beef: Chicken litter containing arsenic is fed to cows in factory beef operations. So the arsenic that’s pooped out by the chickens gets consumed and concentrated in the tissues of cows, which is then ground into hamburger to be consumed by the clueless masses who don’t even know they’re eating second-hand chicken sh*t.

This Is One Of The Biggest Cancer Causing Foods, And After Reading This You Will Never Eat It Again




Numerous people, and especially children, simply love to eat hot dogs, despite the fact that it is nutritiously beggared processed nourishment. Hot dog is a common food among our generations, and is a staple for breakfast, alongside other breakfast nourishment like egg, bread, espresso and milk.
However, the American Institute for Cancer Research found that the consumption of only one hot dog a day raises your danger for colorectal cancer by 21 percent.
Even more threatening is this situation for children, who eat 12 or more hot dogs in a month, which increases the risk of creating different types of disease, and in particular, leukemia.
Hot dogs are expelled from ground-up slurry of animal remains, including fatty tissues and skins, animal feet, heads, and other “edible” butcher by-items.
Moreover, a cancer-causing agent is a substance able to bring about tumor in living tissue. At the point when warmed, nitrates and nitrites in prepared meats consolidate with amines to form nitrosamines, which are proven to be cancer-causing agents.
In addition, here below, we give you a list of some chemical added substance fixings that cause malignancy and different infections and are found in this food:
  • Sodium nitrite
  • Sodium phosphates
  • Sodium diacetate
  • Sodium lactate
  • Sodium ascorbate
  • Dextrose
  • Mechanically separated chicken
  • Pork
  • Mechanically separated turkey
  • Less than 2% of salt
  • Flavor
  • Corn syrup
    The situation with additional items to hot dog’s contents is far more awful, in fact. According to the reports by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) under the Freedom of Information Act, external objects found in hot dogs incorporate Band-Aids, maggots, rat legs, parts of eyeballs, glass shards, disposable blades, metal sections, and more.

14 Cancer-Causing Foods You Should Never Put In Your Mouth Again


Some estimates say that close to 70% of all cancer is preventable. Not eating these 14 foods is a good first step. ‪#‎healthyeating‬

 The American Institute for Cancer states on their website, “Research has shown that most cancers can be prevented. Scientists now estimate that 60 percent to 70 percent of cancers are all preventable through currently available information and simple changes in diet and lifestyle.” With that encouraging statement in mind, this article addresses changes you can make in your day to day dietary lifestyle that will not only improve your health, but help you to avoid toxins that can increase your chance of cancer

BPA lined cans- This ingredient found in hard plastics and resins is used to coat metal cans. Laboratory studies in cells and animals have linked BPA to cancer, infertility, diabetes and obesity. Unless a canned item is labelled BPA free, it’s likely to contain bisphenol-A (BPA). BPA can also be found in numerous plastic products and dental composites.

Cured and Smoked Foods- Nitrates and nitrites act as preservatives to prevent food from spoiling, they also add color to meats. When cooked, nitrites and nitrates change into by-products called N-nitroso compounds, such as nitrosamines and nitrosamides. N-nitroso compounds are associated with an increased risk of cancer.

Farmed Fish- According to Food and Water Watch, farmed fish contain higher levels of chemical pollutants than wild fish, including PCB’s a known carcinogen. Due to overcrowding in fish farms, fish are more susceptible to disease increasing the use of antibiotic use. They are also more susceptible to sea lice, which means they are also treated with pesticides.

GMOs– Sadly GMOs (Genetically Modified Organisms) have infiltrated our food supply at an alarming rate. GMO foods should be avoiding. Look for GMO free labels on foods. To learn more about GMOS and their health risks go to: http://www.responsibletechnology.org/gmo-education

Grilled Meat- Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs, are produced through certain types of combustion, such as the burning of coal or wood. An additional problem is created when fat from meat drips onto a fire, creating   a flare up and smoke, this allows the PAHs yo affix themselves to the food you’re cooking increasing your risk for carcinogenic exposure.

Hydrogenated Oils- Hydrogenated oils, also known as trans- fats are a man-made product. These oils have a chemical structure that has been altered to prevent the product from going rancid in order to increase their shelf life. The Harvard School of Public Health notes that trans fats promote immune system over-activity and inflammation and are linked to heart disease, stroke and diabetes, among other chronic diseases. In addition to being chemically extracted from their source, chemicals are also used to mask the odor and change the taste of the oil.

Microwave Popcorn– These bags are lined with Perfluoroalkyls, perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) and perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS) to prevent oil from soaking through the packaging. When heated, these chemicals leach into the popcorn; when ingested, they show up as blood contaminants. PFOA has been associated with tumors in animal organs (liver, pancreas, testicles and mammary glands in rats), and increases in prostate cancer in PFOA plant workers.

Non Organic Fruits & Vegetables– Conventionally grown crops are grown with pesticides, herbicides and GMO seeds. All of which are hazardous to your health. To learn more about the hazards of eating conventionally grown food read EWG’s 2015 “Shopper’s Guide to Pesticides in Produce” http://www.ewg.org/foodnews/dirty_dozen_list.php

Processed foods– Cured meats tend to be high in nitrites and nitrates, preservatives that can, in large amounts, potentially increase your risk of stomach and other cancers. Processed foods are generally full of white flours, sugars, oils, colors, flavorings and other unhealthy ingredients.

Refined Sugars- Researchers have found links between sugar and numerous issues such as unhealthy levels of blood fats, low HDL levels, increased risk for heart disease, higher blood triglyceride levels, obesity, immune suppression, arthritis and a host of other ills. Cancer cells thrive on sugar.

Soda/ Sports Drinks- There is no nutritional value in drinking soda or sports drinks. These drinks contain high fructose corn syrup, sugar, dyes, brominated vegetable oil (a flame retardant), aspartame and other chemicals. They rob your body of much needed vitamins and minerals.

Soy Protein Isolate– 90-95 percent of U.S.-grown soybeans, used to create soy protein isolate, are “Roundup ready,” which means they have been genetically altered to withstand herbicides. According to the American Dietetic Association, soy protein isolates are known to contain anti-nutrients that can develop or delay the body’s ability to digest food and absorb the nutrients into the blood stream. Soy goes through a highly industrial manufacturing process of acid washing in aluminum tanks. Aluminum is highly toxic to the nervous system and kidneys

Sugar- Cancer cells thrive on sugar and any food that converts to sugar, such as grains, pastas, carbs, breads and most fruits. So for those who are dealing with cancer, eliminating sugar is key. For those who are looking to maintain health, eating a balanced diet that includes fruit is not as big of an issue.

White Flour- Commercially grown grains begin with seeds that are treated with fungicide. The plants are then sprayed with pesticides. They are harvested and stored in bins coated with insecticides. Which all increase your toxic load. Grains are then processed in high temperature, high speed rollers. Chlorine oxide in the form of a chlorine gas bath is used as a whitener, as well as an aging agent. What you end up with is a starch devoid of nutrients and full of toxins.
