Do you know what ingredients lurk in your favorite snacks and foods? The list is long and their consequences are many – for time sake, I will cover 3 common so-called ingredients. The Oh-h-h McDonald’s Chicken McNuggets are far from chicken. Aside from the lighter fluid ingredient that is used, several of the other 38 ingredients used are corn. The actual chicken was fed corn, cornstarch is then added, corn flour is used in the batter, then they’re fried in corn oil… and finally washed down with Coke or Pepsi, which also contain corn by way of HFCS.

High fructose corn syrup is a cheap, fattening, and versatile sweetener that was introduced in late 1970’s after the government gave corn farmers subsidies to grow it – it did save SOMEBODY millions of dollars, however… it was at the expense of a 100% increase of obesity in children and adolescents.

Aspartame is an artificial sweetener that also goes by the names of Equal and NutraSweet. It is commonly added to sugar and fat free products. This artificial sweetener actually causes an increased craving for sugar and carbohydrates.

Various health concerns have been raised about aspartame since it was introduced in 1981. In 1984, six months after it’s “debut” in sodas the incidence of brain cancer and brain tumors increased 10% in U.S., Diabetes 30% and Lymphoma 60%. A 2005 study has also shown it to cause leukemia in rats.

MSG also known as Mood Swings Galore… I mean Monosodium glutamate. It was created to make fake food taste real and tasteless food tasty! For more info on MSG… see April 9th post.

Aside from all 3 of these ingredients being cheap, they are NUTRIENTLESS, which leads to more and more overweight malnourished people from all walks of life. Take a minute to read labels – it will save you a lifetime of misery and prevent dying a slow suicide.

Know what lurks in your neighborhood? Health issues got you down and can’t seem to find any improvement with diet, detox or pharmaceuticals? Are colds, flu, aches and pains a constant problem? Are you sick and tired of looking and feeling sick and tired?

Cell towers, cell reception, hidden antennas and more could very well be the culprit of many health conditions, disease and overall sense of blah. A plethora of information can be found on existing towers, future towers, and antennas – a free online source of detailed information on millions of towers and antennas here in the U.S. Includes Google Maps and detailed data downloads for your neighborhood and beyond.

If improving your health is not of importance, it can be used to check cell phone coverage before signing up for service.

MSG… AKA Monosodium Glutamate. It’s sole purpose is to make cheap poor quality, and often times fake food taste like real tasty food. However, it does so at the expense of your health, brain, behavior and more. It is a short term “solution” to long term detrimental problem. You can spend less on food, but expect the money “saved” now to be spent on medical bills and pharmaceutical drugs later. 

Got headaches? Try eating real home cooked meals for a week and see what happens. Your memory not what it used to be? Read labels and avoid foods with MSG – it has been linked to problems such as Alzheimer’s.  Has your child been diagnosed with ADD or ADHD? Start feeding them real food and see what happens.

The problems are endless, the “cures” are many by deciding to eat or omit MSG. Eating healthy does not have to cause confusion or cost a fortune. A few organic grains, fruits, veggies and other wholesome foods bought in bulk can transform your health, and make eating healthy easy and very affordable. In general, food without labels is healthier – they may not have a long shelf life, but they’ll help lengthen yours.

~~peace, love and REAL food~~

This humorous video sheds light on what goes into the making of a flu shot – if more people knew this…  the line of people waiting (for their shot) would no doubt be shorter.

Prevent the flu this season by improving your diet. This includes drinking more water in place of sugary drinks. You can dilute your drinks with water to wean yourself off them. Feel better and look great in the process without subjecting yourself to the poison of a flu shot!
