POPSSome of our foods are poisons!
This subject will always be actual. It's our life, after all. Modifying old sentence, we are eating to live, not to suffer from what we eat. And drink. So, better check what you eat and especially how you feed your kids; not force them to pay for our mistakes and our inaction toward crooks, making living on our health. There are many bizarre theories in food and medical science to be revised and as soon as we start to do that as better. How many troubles can be prevented! First of all it is the notion that we can safely eat artificial food, practically plastic. We are not! We cannot be healthier neither with synthetic food, nor with chemical medicines. Even naturally occurred remedies have to be applied carefully. Chemical "revolution" of past century in relation to our life and health is over. One more remark. Please note, that not all toxins are poisons and most dangerous stuff in our food not toxins, which are produced by some microbes, but man made poisons, added there by stu

POPSRight Wing Leaders Show True Colors Surprised? I'm not in the least. Riling up the "base" is what they do the best and it has become crystal clear that the base if increasingly racist. Of course, they'd deny it.

POPSStudy Finds Cheeseburgers More Nutritious Than Baby Food This is not a plug for eating more meat. Eating meat already causes way too many environmental and human health problems. No, this is wakeup call to those of you who are paying exorbitant prices for unhealthy processed junk food disguised as ‘healthy’ baby food. You can very easily make it yourself at home. You would be taking a huge positive step for your baby’s health and your bank account. Plus you would have peace of mind concerning what you are actually feeding your child. Heinz wasn’t the only company that came under scrutiny. Several other companies, such as Baby Balance, were found to make products high in saturated fats and sugars worse than junk food. There’s a link in the clip that gives a good argument for ‘baby-led solids’ a simple, practical, logical and natural method of beginning solid foods whereby your baby simply eats real food, by himself/herself, from the beginning.

POPSCoke's no joke, says cancer research report Return the cocaine to the Coke and you have a pain killer to cope with the cancer. Considering it's history of holding people in contempt, Coca Cola will be unable to fight this on facts, just bullshit.

POPSFood Pets Die For: Shocking Facts about Pet Food More: Dead Dogs and Cats as a Protein Source The most objectionable source of protein for pet food is euthanized cats and dogs. (See Chapter Four.) It is a common practice for thousands of euthanized dogs and cats to be delivered to rendering plants, daily, and thrown into rendering vats--along with pet collars, I.D. tags, and plastic bags--to become part of an ingredient called "meat meal." If you see the term "meat meal" listed as an ingredient, there is no guarantee that the pet food does not contain euthanized cats and dogs.

POPSAMA Calls For Reduced Sodium in U.S. Foods I stopped salting my food years ago. It's about time someone regulated the food industry so we can live longer and be healthier, and still enjoy canned foods, eating out at restaurants, and purchasing convenient frozen foods without the added worry of killer sodium added to these foods.

POPSHabits May Be Good For You "Not everyone is comfortable with the arrangements. Some critics complain that public health professionals are becoming too cozy with companies ultimately focused on their bottom lines. Others worry that these advertising techniques may be manipulative. But what Dr. Curtis learned in Ghana suggests that saving the world may be as easy as hawking chewing gum, or, to use a more contemporary example, as simple as training Americans to spray perfumed water on couches that are already clean."

POPSWhat have they done to our beef? Industrial agriculture has transformed our meats into a product that is often hazardous to humans. The inhumane treatment of animals, the force feeding of foods that are not part of the animals' diet, the overcrowding, etc. have created unhealthy animals which in turn make us unhealthy. The result is cheap food, lots of cheap food, cheap hamburgers, cheap toxic food that we pay for with our health.

POPSSo you can eat healthy, lucky you! Just one more nail in the coffin of poverty. Low income people cannot afford to eat healthy and by not eating healthy they risk getting the diseases associated with unhealthy diets. Since they also can't afford health insurance they can't afford the treatments available for eating unhealthy. So what is their recourse? An early death! So keep thinking people are free and can make life choices to enhance their existence and keep judging that those who eat unhealthy deserve what they get. America The Land Of The Haves And The Have Nots! And the Have Nots are growing bigger everyday!:cry:

POPS 'Nanny' Pelosi's “Greening The Capitol” Enhanced Gourmet Menu "I just wish my pay improved,” said a staffer for a Democrat from Arizona. Newly ascendant Democrats may have hit roadblocks on Iraq and fiscal issues, but they have revamped congressional menus, replacing fatty, pre-made foods with healthier, gourmet alternatives. The once dreary congressional cafeterias now abound with haute cuisine.

POPSGood Grief, Our American Diet is Deadly I've heard a lot of conservatives claim that poor people in the U.S. are obviously well-fed, because they are more likely to be overweight. This flies in the face of science suggesting that unhealthy and fattening foods are cheap and readily available, while healthy foods are hard to find in poor communities and they are expensive.
