I have to go to my safe workplace with benefits just moments after discovering the news. I may have PTSD and Lupus.
"Today, most artificial colors are made from coal tar."
Yellow #5 is banned in Norway and Austria due to compounds benzidine and 4-aminobiphenyl, the Caltons say.
"Six of the eleven studies on yellow #5 showed that it caused genotoxicity, a deterioration of the cell's genetic material with potential to mutate healthy DNA," the book, "Rich Foods, Poor Foods," states.

e the headline for this article, but microwave meals and processed convenience foods are still killing us softly, as I’ve reported before. This time, the study points to a considerable increase in auto-immune diseases like multiple sclerosis, alopecia, asthma, and eczema.
Junk food from fast-food chains or junk food that is drowning in preservatives from your grocery store, this particular study from Yale University in the U.S and the University of Erlangen-Nuremberg, Germany, as well as another from Harvard, reports that junk food diets are to blame for an increase in these diseases.
“These are not diseases of bad genes alone or diseases caused by the environment, but diseases of a bad interaction between genes and the environment.”
“Essentially, the processing of food isn’t just to make it safe or shelf stable. Processing of food is to maximize profit by maximizing the eating we do before we feel full,” Dr. David Katz, director of the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research Center, says in the video.
- BHT is not proven safe! It’s linked to cancer (1) in some animal studies and is an endocrine disruptor that interferes with hormones (2).
- The approval of BHT as a food additive has been called one of the worst failures of our regulatory system by the respected Environmental Working Group and is included in their list of dirty dozen food additives (3).
- The Center For Science In The Public Interest (CSPI) classifies BHT as a “Caution” ingredient (4) that is unnecessary, is easily replaced by safe substitutes, and to avoid it when possible.
- There’s conflicting data about whether BHT promotes the growth of tumors, and its research is controversial (5) – too controversial to allow it in our food! The European Food Safety Authority (6) notes that short-term and subchronic toxicity study findings are inconsistent. BHT simply hasn’t been proven safe and researchers agree that more studies need to be conducted.
Rise in MS and Autoimmune Disease Linked to Processed Foods - Multiple Sclerosis News Today
Here's How America Became Hooked On Processed Foods
There are quite a few studies showing a likely link. I don't think anyone can say with a straight face that they don't think there's a real potential for harm, or that these foods don't pose some risk.
Our generation has been poisoned by companies trying to create more profit. I honestly feel so much better and healthier eating a very simple list of foods. I don't touch that bullshit anymore, and probably wouldn't let my kids. Morgan Spurlock was on to something with Super Size Me.

Report: Americans dying earlier, getting sicker than those in other high-income nations

You can debate whether food is causing the increase rate of chronic disease. What you cannot debate is that there is a HUGE increase in chronic disease, within the United States, whether it be AD, Parkinsons, or cancer, that is NOT found in other developed countries.
My favorite is the makers of Rice Krispies putting tons of preservatives on the inside lining of the plastic packaging for their cereals so they don't have to reveal it in the ingredients. Seriously. It's 2016 and shit like that is perfectly legal? Yep.
General Mills Starts Pulling Preservatives After Assault From Food Babe Army
People don't have idea that chemicals like BHT are banned throughout Europe, yet we continue to eat them every day in North America.
