US Food Manufacturing - Science Based or Recklessnes?

Vilsack, who is in favor of the trans-Atlantic trade pact, claims it needs to provide “significant” new market openings for American farmers—most of which grow GE crops

Vilsack has called for the European Union (EU) to ease restrictions on GE foods and crops and reconsider its labeling requirements for GMOs

Researchers have raised questions about the safety of many American food manufacturing processes—the use of drugs in particular

Health Tip:  Happy Hearts - Vitamin E & B and Your Heart

There is not a single cell in your body that can stay alive without vitamin E because vitamin E 
regulates oxygen. When your body is deficient in Vitamin E, your heart may require up to 250% more oxygen. 

Many people are not getting the entire Vitamin E complex. Vitamin E such as alpha-tocopherol is not the full It used to be that you could get the vitamin E complex from freshly ground wheat but these days almost all breads have had the vitamin E completely stripped out of them. If by chance you do eat freshly ground wheat that has not been bleached, you have to eat it within 7 days to get the Vitamin E. After 7 days the Vitamin E becomes rancid. If you eat commercial bleached flour products regularly it is likely you have a vitamin E deficiency.

Vitamin B, which is essential to heart tone and rhythm, is also depleted by consuming bleached flour products. 

Food Ingredients that Cause Nerve Damage

Food additives tricks your tongue into thinking that it is getting something nutritious when it is getting nothing at all except some very toxic substances.

Following the Second World War food companies discovered monosodium glutamate (MSG), a food ingredient the Japanese had invented in 1908 to enhance food flavors.

Unfortunately, MSG is extremely toxic, especially to your nervous system

The fast food industry could not exist without MSG and other artificial meat flavors to make their sauces and spice mixes. The sauces in processed foods are basically MSG, water, thickeners and some caramel coloring.

MSG tricks your tongue into thinking that it is getting something nutritious when it is getting nothing at all except some very toxic substances.

Almost all canned soups and stews contain MSG. Salad dressings, Worcestershire sauce, rice mixes, dehydrated soups, all of these as well as anything that has a meat-like taste has MSG in it.

Most processed vegetarian foods contain these flavorings. The list of ingredients in vegetarian hamburgers, hot dogs, bacon, baloney, etc., often includes “hydrolyzed protein” (another name for MSG) and other "natural" flavorings. Almost all soy-based foods contain large amounts of MSG.

In 1957 scientists found that mice became blind and obese when given MSG. In 1969, MSG was found to cause damage in specific regions of the brain. Subsequent studies confirmed this.

MSG is a substance that has a toxic effect on nerves and the nervous system that causes a wide range of reactions, from temporary headaches to permanent brain damage.

We are experiencing today a huge increase in Alzheimer's, brain cancer, seizures, multiple sclerosis, and diseases of the nervous system. One of the chief contributors are these flavorings in our food.

Ninety-five percent of processed foods contain MSG!

In the late 1950’s it was added to baby food. After some congressional hearings on this subject, the baby food manufacturers stated they had taken it out of the baby food, but they didn't really remove it. They just called it by another name - “hydrolyzed protein”!

Anything that you buy that says "spices" or "natural flavors" contains MSG! The food industry avoids putting MSG on the label by putting MSG in spice mixes. Legally, if the mix is less than 50% MSG, manufacturers don't have to put it on the label.

The phrase "No MSG" on food labels has virtually disappeared. That's because MSG is in all the spice mixes.

This substance is so harmful to your body that you want to avoid all foods containing MSG!

To do this successfully you must take the time when shopping to read the ingredients labels on the foods you buy!

To help you to determine what foods actually contain MSG we have compiled a list of ingredients (in alphabetical order) that ALWAYS contain MSG!
