According to several webpages, potentially harmful metal particles are being added to foods to make them whiter, and to vitamin tablets—without always being noticeable (or even listed?) in the ingredient list!
What’s the loophole? Is it covered by “natural and artificial…”?
More importantly, what will you do about what you consume?
Here are some credible and informative websites on the subject:
- http://www.naturalnews.com/027000_titanium_dioxide_vitamins.html# (This one contains more links you can follow for further verification and study.)
- By the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations:http://www.codexalimentarius.net/gsfaonline/additives/details.html?id=184
- This looks to be a great blog post informing about food additives: http://health.yahoo.net/experts/menshealth/12-scariest-things-your-food
- The following two websites cite this study: http://pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/es204168d?journalCode=esthag
What do you know about this?
One solution: Eat less prepared and processed food.
