The next time you shop for food in the supermarket, look out for … not food, but toxic ADDITIVES. For decades now, the food industry has continually created new chemicals to manipulate and transform our food.
Nearly 3,000 additives and preservatives are used in food today — to mimic natural flavours, colour foods to make them look more “natural” or “fresh,” preserve foods for longer and longer periods of time, and create altered versions of breads, crackers, fruits, vegetables, meats, dairy products and many more commonly eaten foods. In the short term, some of these chemicals may cause headaches; low-energy levels; or poor mental concentration, behaviour, or immune response.
Chemicals with long-term effects could increase your risk of cancer, cardio-vascular disease and other degenerative conditions.
