Yet another report on the hazards of this so called natural food additive that can have disastrous affects on your health.
Doubts surface about safety of food additive, carrageenan
I like many others thought seaweed was good for our health and was not the least bite concerned when I saw it listed on the label of the heavy cream I use everyday. However, I certainly changed my mind this morning when excerpts, from this Chicago Tribune investigative report, appeared in my local newspaper.
Read the entire report for yourself. My biggest outrage is the fact the FDA failed to respond to a petition to prohibit the use of carrageenan for FOUR YEARS. Can't tell me manufacturers don't have big money.
AND the fact that it is used in INFANT formula????????? WHY ??????????? But then if you ever take the time to actually read the label on infant formula you will be appalled. And then you'll be outraged when you find out our government DEMANDS mother's use our tax dollars to purchase this formula and actually feed it to the next generation of prospective diabetics and an obese population.
READ EVERY label -- you can find carrageenan in milk, yogurt, ice cream, cheeses, some meats and diet soda and even TOOTHPASTE, plus some organic products and lots of packages and processed foods. Remember Dr. Chopra calls processed food DEAD food. He recommends we eat living food that comes from the earth not a factory.
Do yourself and your family a favor, take a few minutes and read the entire Download Carrageenan Chicago Tribune and then send it to all your friends to spread the word about the possible dangers of carrageenan.
