Top 20 things that are more dangerous to children than lead paint in Mattel toys Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Hot dogs Hot dogs are made with horrifying processed meat parts (click here to see shocking photos of processed meat products, then preserved with a cancer-causing ingredient called sodium nitrite. As detailed in my book Grocery Warning, this ingredient causes brain tumors in children, not to mention leukemia, pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and other cancers. Hot dogs are far more dangerous to a child's health than lead paint in my opinion, and yet parents keep feeding them to their children! 4. Antibacterial soap How about a little nerve toxin in your soap?

The American Cancer Society considers the evidence of an association of red and processed meat with risk of colorectal cancer great enough to make the recommendation to "limit intake of processed and red meats" [33]. However, although several cohort studies found increased risk with higher consumption of red meat, processed meat, or other types of meat [10, 15, 34], 10 other cohort studies did not find an association [35]. In a Norwegian cohort there was an increased risk associated with sausage intake as a main meal in women, but not in men [36].

Many of the ads that appeared were promoting organic beef and pork products, which also seemed a bit strange. Some ads were for food additives like phosphates, and others promoted things like, "Meals for Seniors" which are, no doubt, probably made of processed meats. Overall, I found the ads to be quite hilarious, and not really very useful to the topic. Here at NewsTarget, we constantly get complaints from readers about the Google ads, but that's because those people don't yet realize we don't choose those ads! Google does, and sometimes their ad selection algorithm produces bizarre results.

Both reports stress the need for increasing the daily intake of plant fiber, fruits and vegetables and reducing red and processed meat consumption to less than 80-90g. If you are currently eating meat on a regular basis and wish to change over to a vegetarian diet, unless you suffer from a major cardiovascular illness, do not give up all flesh foods at once! The digestive system cannot adjust to a substantially different diet from one day to the next. Start by reducing the number of meals that include meats such as beef, pork, veal and lamb and substituting poultry and fish during these meals.

Bacon Most bacon and sausage are processed meat products made with sodium nitrite (like the hot dogs, above) and contaminated with various chemicals lodged in the animal fats. Conventionally-raised beef, pork and chicken products are, in my opinion, extremely toxic to the human body and contribute to colon cancer, breast cancer, prostate cancer and many other diseases and disorders. If you make meat for your children, shop for 100% organic, free-range, antibiotic-free meats that have no nitrites or nitrates. 20.

So I sure didn't want to get snapped by a camera standing in front of a Wal-Mart checkout lane with my hands full of junk processed meat products. After I completed my undercover meat purchase, I headed home and set up the macrophotography equipment. Since I'm experienced at this (I love to take nature pictures, especially of flowers), that was easy. I already had all the equipment and know-how necessary. The next part, however, was not so easy: I had to touch the meat products to prep them for the camera.

So -- get this -- I put on a hat and sunglasses and actually stealthed my way through the Wal-Mart store, trying to buy these processed meat products without getting noticed! I know, it sounds ridiculous, but I've had people walk up to me in grocery stores before and start chatting about NewsTarget, and I didn't want to risk giving someone the wrong impression about my own lifestyle. This is actually a very important point with me because I live the lifestyle I recommend. I eat superfoods, exercise regularly and follow an incredibly clean diet.

In a prospective study that examined whether overall dietary patterns derived from a food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) predicted risk of CHD in men found a dietary pattern including high intakes of red meat and processed meat was associated with a higher risk for CVD compared lower intakes (RR adjusted for lifestyle variables and fat intake: 1.43 [1.01, 2.01]) [171].

Rectal cancer risk, on the other hand, decreased with greater consumption of dairy products and increased with red or processed meat consumption and the FF FOKI genotype [235]. Among older people (>64 years), associations of BMI (positive association) and Prudent diet (inverse association) were stronger among those without an e3 apolipoprotein E (apoE) [236, 237].

However, although several cohort studies found increased risk with higher consumption of red meat, processed meat, or other types of meat [10, 15, 34], 10 other cohort studies did not find an association [35]. In a Norwegian cohort there was an increased risk associated with sausage intake as a main meal in women, but not in men [36]. Some case-control studies detected associations [37-39], whereas others did not [40-42]. Two studies suggest that the association of meat with risk of colon cancer is modified by other components of the diet, specifically vegetables [43] and legumes [44]. C.

The latest U.S. health safety distraction ploy: Blame China! Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Sodium nitrite, for example, has been irrefutably shown to cause pancreatic cancer, colon cancer, leukemia and brain tumors in children, and yet the FDA looks the other way while processed meat manufacturers continue to add sodium nitrite to meat products sold throughout the country. What about all the children eating hot dogs and getting brain tumors from the highly carcinogenic nitrosamines created by eating such foods? No problem: Blame China!

"Miracle" weight loss drug Alli delivers more than you bargained for (diapers optional) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

That may sound great if you're eating a diet of fried foods, hydrogenated oils and processed meat products, but even if you block the absorption of those obesity-promoting fats, you're still left in a state of deficiency concerning the healthy oils like omega-3 fatty acids. And if you eat more flaxseed or take fish oil capsules, guess what? Alli will interfere with those, too, causing you to miss out on at least some of their benefits. What an incredibly genius idea for a drug! Transform adults into diaper-wearing little children, then leave them in a state of nutritional deficiency.

FDA warns over dangerous products from China while ignoring dangerous products from the U.S. Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Chemicals like sodium nitrite, for example, lead to the creation of extremely toxic cancer-causing chemicals in the human body, yet if you go to the grocery store and start checking ingredients labels, you'll find that nearly every processed meat package in the store lists sodium nitrite as an ingredient (bacon, sausage, pepperoni, sandwich meat, hot dogs, bologna and even the chunks of ham in "Bean & Ham" soup). So where is the FDA's urgent warning to Americans that they're eating cancer-causing poisons in American food products? It doesn't exist.

Sodium nitrite, for example, remains perfectly legal to add to processed meat products, even though it substantially increases the risk of pancreatic cancer, colon cancer and even breast cancer. Hydrogenated oils, aspartame, petroleum-derived food coloring chemicals and cancer-causing preservative chemicals all remain legal as well. Clearly, the goal of so-called "food safety" initiatives have nothing to do with actually protecting consumers, but a whole lot to do with meeting the interests of agricultural companies and junk food manufacturers.

The health care reform legislation that Congress should pass, but won't Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

The chemical boosts sales of processed meat because it turns the meat bright red. It's a color fixer. But it kills countless Americans each year from cancers that are completely preventable. Why should this ingredient continue to be allowed in the food supply? In an honest system of food safety regulation, wouldn't you think that cancer-causing chemicals would be banned? If our national leaders really want health care reform, they should outlaw known cancer-causing chemicals like sodium nitrite, sodium benzoate, artificial food colors, aspartame, monosodium glutamate and others.

Beating cancer -- how to take charge of your cancer cure and outlive the lies of the cancer industry Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Well, there's sodium nitrate, which is in almost every processed meat product, found in every grocery store in the world, so if you just eliminate processed meats, your cancer risk plummets. You should also eliminate hydrogenated oils and partially-hydrogenated oils, both of which strongly promote cancer. Eliminate homogenized milk and dairy products. Stop drinking liquids excreted from the glands of other species. (You thirsty pervert...) Eliminate all red meat from your diet. Eliminate all liquid refined sugar, such as soft drinks made of high-fructose corn syrup.

And most warnings concern red meat or processed meat like bacon. Both Dr. Robert Kane and Dr. Robert Butler say that when establishing a diet, it's important to balance calories between complex carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, minimizing trans fats, saturated fats, and salt. "The key is taking in what you need and avoiding the extremes," explains Dr. Kane. "You could go to a nonanimal diet, but an awful lot of vegetarians take in more cholesterol through cheeses and milk and various products than they ever would take in eating meat at a modest level.

Large population studies repeatedly show that diets high in processed meat, salt, and saturated fat and low in vegetables, fruits, and fiber increase the risk of developing cancer, especially bowel cancer. But when you separate individual components such as fiber or fat, you see no cancer/food relationship. For example, in 2000 the New England Journal of Medicine reported a study that found no effect from increasing cereal fiber on the recurrence of colorectal adenomas. Similar studies on fat intake and breast cancer in the Women's Health Initiative Study didn't show a relationship, either.

The prevalence of p53 mutations, the most commonly mutated gene in most cancers including colon cancer, varies by the method used to detect the abnormality [247, 248]. processed meat [248, 249] and meat in general [159] have been reported to be associated with microsatellite instability of colon and rectal tumors [250]. Liquor consumption was associated with an increase in risk of rectal cancer in men with the wild-type K-ras [251], monounsaturated fat [252], and low levels of nutrients associated with DNA methylation [44] or vitamins B!

Now let's talk about the pizza. Let me just say right off the bat here that any person actually recommending pizza as a health food deserves to be suffocated by a vat of molten Velveeta.

Studies have found that eating processed meat could make you 1.5 to 2 times more likely to develop colorectal polyps and/or cancer.26 We've established that meat and dairy products can include hormones, antibiotics, and nitrates, but an even more shocking source of toxins is what is known as "rendered" food materials. Rendered food is what most people unknowingly feed to their pets; but it's also fed to livestock, so it winds up in your local supermarket and then inside your body. We must trace toxins to their root source if we are to eliminate them.

Even some of the researchers associated with the Nurses' Health Study have begun doing dietary pattern analysis, in one case comparing a prudent diet modeled on Mediterranean and Asian patterns—high in fruits, vegetables, and fish and low in red meat and dairy products—with a typical Western diet featuring lots of meat (and processed meat), refined grains, sugary foods, french fries, and dairy products. (The study found "strong evidence" that the prudent dietary pattern may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.

Avoid processed meat at all costs! This includes bacon, hot dogs, sandwich meat, etc. Replace cow's milk with hemp milk, rice milk, almond milk, or raw goat's milk. Better yet, drink only purified water! My personal favorite is hemp milk. It is delicious with a slightly nutty flavor and provides essential and balanced nutrition. Hemp milk is a fantastic alternative to soymilk or cows' milk. For an easy recipe, see the Resources section. Consume only organic cheese or goat cheese. Whenever you eat meat, take an enzyme supplement to assist your body with proper digestion.

More importantly, however, I've also received many comments from people who say they are no longer going to eat processed meat products at all. They're either opting for fresh meats or thinking about going vegetarian. I have not yet heard from Kraft Foods or Jimmy Dean, although there's not much they can say since these are accurate, honest pictures of the products they're making and selling right now (the photos were not altered).

Pizza is made with refined flour (which lacks vitamins and minerals) that's cooked to high temperatures (creating cancer-causing acrylamides), then smothered with tomato sauce made with refined sugar (yes, there's sugar in most pizza sauce), then layered with more processed meat (yet more cancer risk) and processed cheese (can you spell H-E-A-R-T D-I-S-E-A-S-E?). Slapping a few flappy bits of overcooked green peppers and canned mushrooms into this pie does NOT make it a health food. Geesh. You would think this stuff would be obvious by now.
