Toxic Foods

Unbeknownst to most people, the very foods that we eat are either produced with, or include ingredients that are known to be toxic, poisonous, and harmful.Yet even with oversights such as the FDA, these substances make it into the foods we depend upon for life.This is a comprehensive list of such ingredients, practices, and means of how they are in the foods we eat, and some alternatives for us to help avoid them entirely.Many of these are included deliberately in our foods under the guise of being a safe and healthy alternative to certain foods and ingredients otherwise harmful to us, like sugar. However, these tend to be far worse than the ingredients they propose to replace as a healthier substitute.Please read the ingredient labels on foods you are purchasing.Refrain from anything processed.Be very wary of foods labeled 'diet', or low calorie, and even fat-free.Make educated food purchases, be a smart consumer, and make yourself aware of the deception of these ingredients, and how they can harm you and your children, and pets.Demand better oversight and accountability of food processing, and labeling of potentially harmful ingredients.Demand independent oversight and testing of foods, and not allow such research to be left to the manufacturers themselves, or by paid-off agencies that are no more interested in your food safety than those who are responsible for using these ingredients in the first place.
