10 Worst Food Ingredients

MSG – Slowly Poisoning America
Not only is MSG scientifically proven to cause obesity, it is an addictive substance: NICOTINE for FOOD!
MSG triples the amount of insulin the pancreas creates causing humans to become obese
MSG manufacturers themselves admit that MSG addicts people to their products

Aspartame
There are over 92 different health side effects associated with aspartame consumption.
Aspartame dissolves into solution and can therefore travel throughout the body and deposit within any tissue. The body digests aspartame unlike saccharin, which does not break down within humans.
The multitude of aspartame side effects are indicative to your genetic individuality and physical weaknesses.

High Fructose Corn Syrup
High fructose corn syrup (HFCS) is a calorie-providing sweetener used to sweeten foods and beverages, particularly processed and store-bought foods. It is made by an enzymatic process from glucose syrup that is derived from corn.

Agave Nectar
Although it's fast becoming the preferred sweetener for health-conscious consumers and natural cooks, the truth is that agave is processed just like other sugars -- and is no better for you than other sugars. And don’t be dazzled by the word "natural"; U.S. food regulators do not legally define the term, so it's left up to manufacturers.

Artificial Food Coloring
Citrus Red 2, Red 3, Red 40, Yellow 5, Yellow 6, Blue 1, Blue 2 and Green 3, --which include some of the most commonly used artificial food colorings--have all been identified as being, or being contaminated with, potential cancer-causing chemicals, according to the Center for Science in the Public Interest. And Blue 1, Red 40, Yellow 5, and Yellow 6 are known to trigger reactions in those with allergies.

BHA & BHT
Both BHT and BHA are dangerous to our children’s health and are completely unnecessary.
With the new “craze” (I call it a craze because I think it’s a load of BS) of ADHD and ADD, parents should be watching what they are feeding to their children. It’s funny, isn’t it, that so many parents feed their children hyped up sugary snacks, and then throw them on drugs for this new “disease” that’s causing them to be “overly hyper”
In addition to causing hyperactivity in children, BHT and BHA are considered carcinogens by the United States Department of Health and Human Services. Yet the FDA allows them to be used in foods?! What’s wrong with this picture?

Sodium Nitrite
Sodium nitrite may trigger migraines in people who already suffer from them. Eating processed meat containing the chemical can cause the blood vessels in the brain to widen and enlarge, creating severe headaches.
A serious concern in regard to sodium nitrite consumption is the formation of carcinogens. When meat preserved by sodium nitrite is cooked, the high heat levels encourage the formation of cancer-causing agents.
Although it is not flammable in itself, sodium nitrite can cause fire if exposed to other materials. Inhaling or ingesting sodium nitrite can cause toxicity symptoms, such as dizziness, vomiting, spasms, nausea, abdominal pain, coma, a rapid heartbeat and irregular breathing. Skin contact with the chemical may cause an allergic reaction accompanied by redness, pain and itching.

Sodium Nitrate
When you consume sodium nitrate, the sodium portion of the molecule separates from the nitrate portion. You can absorb sodium and as long as you don't consume it in excess, it doesn't hurt you. Your body can turn nitrate into nitrite, however, which has the formula NO2. Nitrites then react with secondary amines, which are present in large concentration in the proteins you eat, to form compounds called nitrosamines. Nitrosamines are carcinogenic, or cancer-causing, in humans.
While everyone who consumes nitrates is at risk due to formation of nitrosamines, pregnant women should avoid nitrate-containing foods for an additional reason; the nitrites produced from ingested nitrates can cross the placenta. This can result in production of methemoglobin in a fetus, explains Dr. Nachman Gruener and colleagues in a 1973 article in the "Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology." Methemoglobin isn't as efficient at delivering oxygen, so this can result in fetal oxygen deprivation.


Potassium Bromate
Potassium bromate have the ability to cause cancer within your body. These chemical based products usually become metabolized into harmful substances within different organs, and generally target those specific places once produced. In the case of potassium bromate, cancer usually develops in the kidney or thyroid when consumed frequently and in large doses.

Recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH)
Recombinant bovine growth hormone (rBGH) is a synthetic (man-made) hormone that is marketed to dairy farmers to increase milk production in cows. It has been used in the United States since it was approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 1993, but its use is not permitted in the European Union, Canada, and some other countries. This document summarizes what is known about the product and its potential effects on health.

It is estimated that around 1/3 of cows in the United States are injected with this synthetic hormone, which means that you have most likely been highly exposed to rBGH if you live in the U.S. or have eaten U.S. dairy products.
*It is also banned in 27 countries but why not the U.S.*

Refined Vegetable Oil
There are three basic processes in the edible oil refinery. First process is neutralizing the oil in the neutralizer to remove the Free Fatty Acids (FFA) by adding caustic soda. Oil is heated upto about 60°C by thermic fluid coils and oil is stirred by stirrer. Then soap stock formed due to chemical reaction is allowed to settle at the bottom of the neutralizer from where it is taken out into soap pan.

Neutralized oil is drawn into the second vessel called bleacher where colour of oil is removed by bleaching process with aid of chemicals such as carbon black and bleaching earth. Oil is generally heated upto 110°C by thermic fluid coils. Stirring is also continued. Bleaching process is done under vacuum.

Bleached oil then goes to the filter press where bleaching earth and chemicals are separated and clean bleached oil is then drawn to deodourizer where oil is heated above 110°C through thermic fluid coils and then live steam is given to the oil from the bottom steam nozzles and temperature of oil is raised upto 200 to 220°C through thermic fluid coils. Entire process is done under high vacuum. Thus smell is removed from the oil in the deodourizer. Then it goes to cooler where water circulating coils take away heat and oil is cooled. Again it goes to second filter press where completely refined and transparent colour less oil is obtained.

Thermic Fluid Boiler, Vacuum Pump, Barometric Condenser, Catchalls, Steam Generator etc. play their role in the refining process. So these equipments are part of the refinery and connected with the vessels through pipelines.


So, if you’re trying to receive that body that you always wanted, then you might want to avoid these food ingredients! Trust me, I definitely do!
All it takes is for you to read the back of food labels. Now, I know you probably thinking that you can’t possibly expect companies to put all of their ingredients on the label but you can avoid those that do. If you’re serious about obtaining great health then my message will be a no brainer.
