It turns out that a lot of banned
foods end up in our grocery cart and contain hidden toxic chemicals that
increase your risks of disease and storing belly fat.
Every day, Americans eat tons of
dangerous banned ingredients, and chances are you’re one of them. I
don’t mean to scare you, but to simply tell you the truth.
I’ve spent the last 7+ years
researching how our food is made, and discovered dark secrets I have to
tell the world, even if it makes me the most HATED expert by the big
companies.
Here’s my top 5 banned ingredients that end up in most plates:
1) Ractopamine (in pork)
It’s banned in the European Union,
China, and Taiwan, but Consumer reports found this dangerous drug in
20% of all pork products. Oh, and as a side note, recent studies also
found that 81% of all supermarket meats in the US are contaminated with
antibiotic-resistant bacteria which damage your gut flora and slow down
your weight loss.
2) rBGH (in milk)
While Canada, Australia, New
Zealand, Japan, Israel and all European Union countries banned the use
of rBGH, this hormone used to increase cows’ milk product is still used
in all 50 states. The use of rBGH increases the levels of IGF-1 hormone
in the milk by at least 6 folds, increasing risks of various cancers.
3) GMOs (in almost everything)
Over 50 countries require labeling
of GMO foods, and many of them banned GMOs altogether. In the US, GMO
foods are NOT labeled, even if 91% of the population feels like they
should be. And because 90% of all soy, corn, canola and sugar (sugar
beet) in the US is now GMO, Americans eat their weight in GMO foods each
year.
The first-ever lifetime feeding
study on the potential health risks of GMOs was published in September
2012. The results of feeding rats GMO corn for two years were very
scary:
- Some rats developed massive tumors that represent 25% of their body weight
- Liver damage was up to 5 times higher in the GMO group than in the non-GMO group
- Female rats that ate GMOs had a 3X higher risk of premature death
4) Potassium Bromate (in bread)
Called a cancer threat by the CSPI
since 1999, banned from dozens of countries, this ingredient is still
used in bread these days.
5) Chloramphenicol (in honey)
This antibiotic used on honey bees
has been banned in the US for years, but can still be found in cheap
supermarket honey (along with heavy metals) that comes from China. The
concerning thing is that a recent study found that 75% or more of all
the honey in the U.S. may be Chinese honey sold as American honey.
Scary, I know. But I know you want
to learn the dirty truth about food, and to make the right choices. You
can do just that here:
