Foods To Avoid
Obesogens. Is this a new term to you? It sure was for me! I've outlined for your benefit, foods to avoid, dangerous foods and unhealthy foods so you may feed yourself and your family with confidence knowing you are truly nourishing them and not just feeding them.
With the rise of mass food production, there are a variety of potentially dangerous and unhealthy chemicals and additives in our food supply today. You'd be blown away to hear that many of these dangerous additives are derived from crude oil and many other chemical compounds contributing to obesity and disease. Some fat is not your fault! I can't let you off the hook completely. We can't blame all of our fat on these chemicals in foods to avoid but we can blame some! There's a great book out on the market you might find interesting written by Stephen Perrine title "The New American Diet". Perrine's book refers to the term OBESOGENS and he's referring to certain chemicals found in common foods. These toxic chemicals are stored directly in your fat tissue and are released untamed through your body causing havoc and consequently, contributing to not only obesity but also cancers and other illness. Yes, we have reason to outline these dangerous unhealthy foods to avoid and my primary reason is your good health! We in the nutrition sector refer to these harmful hormones as XENOESTROGENS Our Foods to Avoid list should help you navigate your way through the grocery store potentially avoiding these dangerous, unhealthy foods. Your first few times out there shopping are going to take time. Don't get frustrated! You need this education to live a long, disease free obese free life. The time spent now studying this Dangerous Foods to Avoid List will pay off as you age gracefully, more vibrantly and in a lean new body reducing aches, pains, and other nutrition and hormone related ailments. With chemical additives, my general rule of thumb is this Refrain from purchasing foods that carry ingredients you cannot pronounce or would not grab as a single item from your pantry or refrigerator In addition to the chemical additives, we have 8 categories of dangerous foods to avoid that might just surprise you. The BIG 8 include:
Monosodium GlutamateAlso known as MSG, this Neurotoxic flavor enhancer is referred to on food labels under many tricky names. The words natural flavors sound innocent don't they? Not if they're a neurotoxin! This will be your most complicated dangerous foods to avoid and identify while shopping. When we refer to neurotoxins, we are talking about the chemicals that are able to pass through the blood brain barrier literally poisoning us and causing symptoms such as: - Headache
- Dizziness
- Diarrhea
- Memory Loss
- Irrational Behavior
- Fluttering Heartbeats
- Rash/Hives
- Swelling of Prostate/Vagina
- Tongue Swelling
- Numbness/Paralysis
- Mental Confusion
And so much more! Check out the link below for a complete list of MSG poisoning symptoms and the common foods that carry this silent agitator. Imagine the toxic reaction that the small child might potentially suffer! You might be suffering silently with unexplained and undiagnosed symptoms! Try cutting this neurotoxin out of your diet and you might be surprised when those constant headaches disappear!

BPA-Bisphenol-AThe Food and Drug Administration has reversed its position on the safety of Bisphenol A, a chemical found in plastic bottles, soda cans, food containers and thousands of consumer goods, saying it now has concerns about health risks. While there are no specific foods to avoid here, it's the container your food is carried and stored in that poses the dangers. Growing scientific evidence has linked the chemical to a host of problems, including cancer, hormonal disruption including thyroid and weight gain, sexual dysfunction and heart disease. Federal officials said they are particularly concerned about BPA's effect on the development of fetuses, infants and young children. Source: Environmental Working Group This comes after much evidence. Our FDA is far too conservative when it comes to your good health. If we're not dropping dead like flies, and we're being poisoned slowly, it must not be classified as foods to avoid. These are very real concerns and you've been seeing it on mainstream media. I repeat: IF OUR FDA IS WARNING YOU, IT'S DANGEROUS!Most cans are lined with this dangerous substance and they were even making baby bottles out of it! I'm just so amazed when I hear that babies now are born with a toxic load Yes, a healthy food might be a new unhealthy dangerous food to avoid just because of this cancer causing chemical. Some foods are difficult to avoid but I do have a few safety suggestions for you to help keep you and your family safe. - Tuna in Packets
- Tomatoes in Glass Jars or Cartons
- Soups in Cartons
Acidic foods are especially prone to plastic poisoning. Turn your bottles over and be especially cautious! Food and water containers are not the only dangerous BPA chemical containing products. You also must worry about your child's toy choices! THESE DANGEROUS CONTAINERS ARE LABELED WITH THE NUMBERS3 AND 7 These numbers can be found on the bottom of your plastic containers and are in a triangular box. For those of you who are pregnant, understand that these toxic chemicals are delivered through the umbilical cord and a phenomenal amount of blood is pumped through this cord during the last trimester. You must be especially careful and adhere to the "foods to avoid" list.

I'll close the dangerous unhealthy foods to avoid list now with a sincere apology. My apology for delivering such dreadful news about our food supply. While this information can be overwhelming, it's not too late, and you now have knowledge which gives you power. Use your super powers and choose fresh, clean food because your liver is already working over time processing that in which we can't control, why not give it a little helping hand with those that you can control?
Thank you for taking the time to study the Dangerous Unhealthy Foods to Avoid list
You'll be a healthier person creating a healthier family for making these sometimes difficult yet necessary choicesAlways remember that foods to avoid, dangerous foods and unhealthy foods entering the human body are very much like putting water in your gas tank. The car simply won't run and neither will you....for long.
WHAT CAN I EAT?I get this question often and while it seems like there are so many foods to avoid, you should feel liberated that fat is actually a healthy substance not a dangerous one. We're just so used to grabbing convenience items that don't contribute to health. Remember to check out the healthy foods list. This is important because as I tell so many, "Try to remember what you can eat not what you can't". We're just generally lazy and forget to invest in our most valuable asset, our body. We change the fluids in our cars, rotate the tires and do regular maintenance but neglect our bodies. You can buy a new car but you can't buy a new body no matter what Hollywood says!
