Chlorella Benefits: Plant-Based B12, Iron, Zinc & Detox
Chlorella is a vegan source of B12, iron and zinc, has strong chelation properties for heavy metals, potential to lower cholesterol, reduce anemia, and boost the immune system.
Aspartame: The Truth About Its Health Risks and Dangers
One of the excitotoxins that have made the industry so happy is the chemical that does all the things that excitotoxins do but unlike MSG is sweet to the taste. It is chemically known as aspartame (Nutra Sweet).
Excitotoxicity of MSG (Monosodium glutamate)-Scientific Review
The most significant finding in the whole history of the food industry is one particular branch of neurotoxins that are called excitotoxins.
Water fluoridation- Scientific review
Fluoride inactivates 62 enzymes in the body, inactivates DNA and RNA repair enzymes activity, it is mutagenic, causes DNA damage, increases cancers and all other diseases correlated with mutations, disrupts the immune system.
Arsenic exposure and meat consumption- The “Poison-Free” Poultry Act
In the US more than three-quarters of arsenic exposure comes from animal products and mostly from chicken than from beef, pork, hot dogs, eggs, and milk.
Arsenic exposure and rice consumption- The most toxic grain of them all
From all known food sources rice absorbs the highest concentration of arsenic among all commonly eaten foods.
Detoxification and pregnancy toxicity exposure risk- The vegan argument
On average pregnant woman is polluted with around 35 different chemicals including both banned and contemporary contaminants. Chemical cocktail levels of many of these chemicals were comparable to the levels that can have fetal adverse effects.
Air Pollution Exposure- Health Risks and Prevention Strategies
In India alone, around half a million people die each year due to air pollution. Air pollution resulting in death is just one part of the overall problem.
Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis- Cyanobacteria algal blooms and dietary BMAA exposure
An abundance of nutrients in coastal areas created by runoff filled with synthetic fertilizers from farmland leads to excessive algal blooms. Algae blooms are dangerous. Microalgae create and excrete some of the most potent neurotoxins known to man.
Farmed fish- “Cesspool” paradise
Farmed fish have up to ten times more pollutants. After vaccination fish is always on antibiotics and pesticides.
Fish toxicity- The most toxic meat
Pollution is washed away and will end up in the ocean eventually and algae filter the water starting the bioaccumulation process. Fish toxicity is a big concern.
Mercury- Neurotoxin from the fish
Mercury is an industrial toxin and the most neurotoxic substance known. Plankton will absorbe it from seawater and initiate bioaccumulation in the food chain.
Pesticide Exposure in Children: Real-Life Exposure Tests
Children and especially pregnant women are more vulnerable to pesticide exposure. If we analyze real-world exposure levels in real-life scenarios, what would the result be?
Pesticides in Food, Exposure in The Standard American Diet- 80 Percent From Meat
Most of the pesticides and especially heavy metals and other toxic waste pollutants we get, we get from meat. More than 80 percent of pesticide exposure in the standard American diet comes from animal products, not from fruits or vegetables.
- Toxicity | Cancer | Prevention
Pesticides, GMO’s, and toxic overload.
Exposure to pesticides directly causes cancer, birth defects, sterility and infertility, damage to the brain and nervous system, liver, kidneys, and other organs.
Distilled Water for Drinking- Detoxification Aid or a Deadly Poison?
There is much misinformation about the detoxifying properties of water and distilled water in particular. Water purification is a big business. What science has to say about it?
Tap water toxicity- Risk assessment
If we are living in a city where we are sure that the tap water is pure this still does not mean that the water is “pure”.
Detoxification – A Scientific Review
There are programs of dieting designed to help reduce inflammation and overall body toxicity and increase detoxification that are backed by science.
Coffee benefits– Not without the risks
Do we think caffeine is something good for our brain or bad or neutral?
What does the actual caffeine do?Alcohol health risks- The “French paradox”, “the wine”, and “in moderation”
Somehow we believe that one glass of wine is not all that bad, or even worse, we believe in alcohol health-promoting myth because of the grape’s antioxidants.
Lectins- Paradox of the “Plant Paradox”
The paradox of the “Plant Paradox” is that people who eat more lectins (beans and whole grains) have less cancer.
Cooked meat bacteria endotoxemia- Inflammation and diet
Are humans omnivores in a true anatomical sense? There is a fundamental difference in the way the digestive tract works in plant vs meat-eating species.
Environmental toxicity- It is just a food chain
Environmental toxicity is the bioaccumulation of toxins. Organisms are filters. But there is one more even worse process called biomagnification in food chain.
