1. There are well over 800 commonly used food additives?
2. Most Americans consume-
1. 200 pounds of sugar per year
2. 26 gallons ice cream per year...
......and the average teenager consumes 1200 cans of soda per year.....just to name a few!
also....even Organic foods can have up to 90 non-organic chemicals in them and still qualify to be
labeled "organic"?
considering all this along with air borne, water borne, food borne illnesses it is more
important than ever to take extra good care of ourselves and this temple that God has
given us to live in while on our earthly journey!
Oh my gosh! I knew that the "average" American
ReplyDeleteeats terribly but I didn't know it was this
bad. This info is very interesting and helpful!
It's also shocking what the public schools feed America's children.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right, the food that is fed to our
Deletechildren in the schools is not even food anymore
their meals consist of sugar, fat, and salt.
Christy,
ReplyDeleteYes the sad truth is that all this is the complete truth.
Between additives and pollution it seems there is nothing left
that we can eat. That is why I have started a veggie garden. I
know of a lot of people who are doing the same right now. To
bad we, the average consumer have no control over what goes into
our food, so that we can have at least some control of what goes
into our mouth!
