What’s in your food? | Dig in 2 It

When we go to the grocery store, we're used to checking all kinds of labels. From the expiration date to the calorie count. Now some doctors want you to look for another label - one that says no PFAS. Irish Kerry Gold butter is prized by many consumer reports for its grass-fed goodness. But what consumers may not have realized is that the grease-resistant wrapper contains per- or polyfuloroalkyl carbons, PFAS for short. This is a toxic artificial compound.

They are literally killing us!! You have GOT TO realize this, NOW. The worst ingredient I've recently found in food : sucralose, like Splenda.

Did you know that employees of pharma and food-related companies are supposed to wait one year before joining the fed agency that oversaw their industry? The crisis -- this is too often ignored and before the Bush Cheney admin, there was a required 3 year wait. That wait makes it harder for companies to install its company loyalists in federal agencies in order to pass favourable regulations to that company -- or to kill regulations that benefit the average consumer American but at the expense of company profits. Demand that company employees wait 1 year before joining the government and help reduce corruption and save American lives. Yes, your vote and voice really do matter.

I live in the South and Kerrygold has been using the cardboard and wax paper packaging for some time here, so it's not just in CA and NY where it's phased out. Also, it's the best tasting butter I've found. As far as fish goes, buy canned salmon instead of canned tuna. Salmon is safe to eat every day and can be prepared in the same ways as canned tuna. People eat way too much canned tuna in the US and tuna is one of the fish that has the highest level of mercury. The higher up the food chain the more mercury, because the fish absorbs mercury from the fish it eats.

As a person with Crohn’s, I have to be very care of additives, preservatives and many ingredients in food. Years ago, my inflammation throughout my body was so bad I decided I was going to figure it out. First I stopped eating meat for 2 weeks-noticeable improvement Second-eliminated chips and starch snacks (my faves)-after a month, my so called diagnosed Fibromyalgia disappeared after years of struggles. Then I started identifying many other foods that caused the pain and inflammation. Originally I thought there was no rhyme or reason on what foods bothered me and which didn’t….until I did a deep drive study on ingredients. Our food is killing us and it’s a vicious cycle that no one cares about but the individual. The work I did for myself took a lot of time and education, but has made all the difference in the world in how I feel….until I became a big eater of sweets out of nowhere.

PFAS chemicals (it is a group of similar compounds, not just one chemical), due to their water--repelling qualities, are in many, many products that you use every day, and have used for decades. Anything waterproof (clothes, rain gear, plastics, vinyls, umbrellas), non-stick cookware, soaps and detergents, firefighting foam, and anything Teflon, has PFAS/PFOS compounds in it. It is this water-repelling property that makes these compounds so useful---and ubiquitous. Of course there are PFAS in your food: the chemicals are used to prevent your food from sticking to the machinery that makes it, your plastic utensils that you eat with, and your non-stick cookware that you cook with. .These compounds are everywhere. I am in the environmental field, and only now are regulatory gencies starting to look for these groups of chemicals called PFAS/PFOS, and guess what? They're several decades too late. They're everywhere, And due to their structure---they're loaded with fluorine atoms whose chemical bonds with other atoms are extremely strong--these chemicals don't degrade.

Debora Henderson: PFAS chemicals are synthetic chemicals which don’t exist in nature. Before their manufacture started in late 1940s, no PFAS were present in the environment. Now they contaminate every corner of the globe and have been found in the blood of people and wildlife worldwide. PFOA stands for Perfluorooctanoic Acid. It is one chemical that belongs to the large family of over 4,500 fluorinated substances known as PFAS (Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances). PFAS are extremely stable and can repel both grease and water making them extremely useful in a wide variety of products. Exposure to PFOA has been linked to six major health issues: kidney cancer, testicular cancer, thyroid disease, high cholesterol, ulcerative colitis, and pregnancy-induced hypertension. These links were found by the US C8 Science Panel, which is referenced in the film ‘Dark Waters’. Chemicals from the PFAS family have been linked to other health issues, including reduced response to vaccines and lower birth weights. In the EU, PFOA was classified as toxic to reproduction in 2017 and the restriction for PFOA and related substances entered into force in July 2020. PFOA and other PFAS chemicals are extremely persistent in the environment, thanks to a special carbon-fluorine bond. This specific carbon-fluorine bond is one of the strongest bonds in nature. As a result of this bond, PFAS chemicals do not break down easily and will persist in the environment for decades. This has earned PFAS the nickname the forever chemicals. This persistence is concerning because it means that current pollution from PFOA and other PFAS chemicals could build up and impact generations that are not even born yet. PFAS chemicals are also extremely mobile. They can pass easily through normal drinking water treatment facilities to contaminate drinking water and can build up in the edible parts of fruits and vegetables. Their mobility means that they have been found in every corner of the globe, including the Arctic and Antarctic. Though the impact of exposure to PFAS on wildlife is less studied, some PFAS have also been linked to negative impacts on the reproductive, hormonal and immunological systems in wildlife. PFOA is believed to be in the blood of 99% of humans. This figure comes from the US, however studies in the UK and around the world also show that almost everyone has chemicals from the PFAS family in their body. PFOA and other PFAS chemicals are present in our bodies because we are exposed to them daily through consumer products that contain PFAS (e.g. food packaging, non-stick cookware, cosmetics, furniture) and via environmental exposure (including from drinking water, indoor air, and certain foods). Some PFAS chemicals, including PFOA, are bioaccumulative. This means they can build up in the human body over time because they are absorbed but not excreted.

I read a story about food dyes that said that the guy who worked at the FDA who was in charge of determining if food dyes were safe or not pushed to get food dyes approved despite that most red or yellow colors contain carcinogens. The argument was that such small amounts should be safe.... so it was approved. Look at the ingredient labels today though. Almost anything you eat that is red, yellow or orange has food dyes in it (especially sweets and candy). Today, just like sugar, it is in almost everything. This means we are consuming far more than what they considered 'safe' back when it was initially approved. Also, in recent years there has been a huge upswing in cancers in cats and dogs pets. This is because they were putting large amounts of food dyes in animal foods. If you look now at a lot of pet foods they will say "no food dyes" because they have started removing them from the foods because they know that is what is causing the cancer! Oh and the guy that worked for the FDA that pushed getting the dyes approved? After it was approved he quit and took a new job for... yep... the dye company! Sugar is another thing that is killing us. New research is showing that it is sugar, not fat that causes heart disease. When the body takes in sugar or carbs (Carbs turn into sugar in the body) the body creates insulin to use the sugar for energy. Problem is, we eat way more sugar than we need so we get fat and eventually, type 2 diabetes. On the way though, too much insulin is an irritant to our arteries which is what allows the cholesterol to stick to the artery wall and cause blockages. The sugar industry has paid out a LOT of money trying to suppress this. Someday they are going to get nailed, just like the tobacco industry did, wait and see.

From my time in the food industry, I know that "natural" usually means the opposite. It's natural in the sense that it has a basis on this planet. The majority of the organic products didn't start off well and soon descended into a farce. I argued at length with the soil association during a product certification. All organic products can have a percentage of non organic ingredients but the soil association listed ingredients as organic, when they were anything but. Even presented with the manufacturers data sheets, they turned a blind eye. So , as the product was launched it was about 67% organic. There are various loopholes. For example, a manufacturer can use more non organic ingredients if they were unable to get their organic supply. Often these ingredients are more expensive and because they were using less, there was generally more waste, due to shelf life. So, what they all do is stop buying the expensive organic ingredients, swap it for the normal stuff and record that there was no supply possible of the correct ingredient. So within a month or so of launch, every organic product would be 100% non organic. Perhaps the worse thing I ever witnessed was the aftermath of a rat invasion in an ingredients warehouse. Something very interesting happened. The rats went through everything, holes in boxes, sack ripped open. All kinds of ingredients......except for all the weird stuff with numbers instead of names, all the artificial sweeteners and ingredients used to substitute diary etc in high fat desserts. The rats completely avoided it all. That should tell us all we need to know.

A French student in my college said the food here in the USA is disgusting because everything... *everything* is loaded with sugar. Even the stuff like ketchup that doesn't normally have sugar in it.

Most Americans are too stupid or too lazy to check their labels. There are plenty of foods that _aren't_ loaded with sugar, but you do have to check.

@@khatdubell it took me weeks to find a place where I could buy cornmeal that isn't pre-loaded with sugar and salt. We do have such goods but they're not well advertised or widely stocked. Growing/making your own food is the healthiest way to go.

Yes the food is full of sugar and salt plus bad oils. It’s best to cook more at home like they do in Europe. Eating fast food is horrible.

That's rich coming from a Frenchman. Everything they consume is loaded with butter -- especially their pastries.

Country girl from the south that has always eaten fresh and home cooked meals. Your friend is correct! When I get sick from not eating I try to find a quick snack to keep me from passing out …. It was in those moments I realized EVERYTHING is sweet! No matter what I grabbed …. Biscuits, fruit, cereal, bread, eggs it didn’t matter!!! Literally made me vomit. It’s crazy how we can’t even tell that everything is sweet Bc we r so use to the sugar on the drip but when the body has had enough it is very evident! Atp is just pop a pill and call it a day vs eat any of this sweet / rotten poison.

We aren’t behind we are bought out.

The butter sticks are wrapped in paper. I only buy the box with sticks inside, not the slab of butter. Sounds like this doesn't affect those who buy the butter sticks, which have a separate wrapper

i used to be very strict and borderline manic about toxins in food. i drove myself crazy trying to keep up with the information. Its a losing battle trying to keep all toxic materials out of your food, water and everyday cosmetics. I gave up and no longer let it bother me. i rather die happy than die worrying about every chemical in my cabinet.

There's a balance in everything. It's good to be in the know but worrying will make you just as sick as the chemicals.
