Four New Poisons

Application of the Critical Theory Four New Poisons -- In our food industries' quest for greater profits and, at the same time, cheaper food material to prepackage for us, the food industry has unwittingly injected 4 new poisons into the food supply, those being: (1) high-fructose corn syrup (a.k.a. HFCS), (2) soy bean oil, (3) lecithin (which is derived from milk or soy beans thru a process using hexane or acetone (a.k.a. nail polish remover)), and (4) unneeded milk. You can find high-fructose corn syrup in most soda pop and bread. Soy bean oil, over the last 10 years, is being used to replace more expensive oils (like old fashion vegetable oil) in food preparation and production. Lecithin, a emulsifier and food lubricant, is found in nearly all hot dogs, energy/breakfast bars, and processed sandwich meat. And finally, milk is being injected into things that normally do not contain milk, in order to increase the amount of vitamin D in a food that never had any in the first place (like turkey sandwich meat). Milk is also being injected into hot dogs. Milk injection is really bad for those who are lactose intolerant, which is about 1 in 6 Americans. If these facts are unbelievable, read your food labels!!! To put it sociologically, the manifest function (see Merton) of injecting high-fructose corn syrup, soy bean oil, lecthin, and milk into US food products is to (a) increase corporate profits, (b) decrease corporate cost, and (c) calming hysterical mothers who think their children are not getting enough vitamin D. By the same token, the latent functions of injecting these poisons into the US food supply, is the increase in the number of people who are (1) fat, (2) have frequent bouts with diarrhea, (3) who are constantly fighting dehydration (due to the diarrhea, since their lower GI is being hindered from absorbing water), and (4) are lethargic, both physically and mentally, since most of their energy is spent on recovering from being poisoned by the food they ate. But you don't have to take my word for it, start investigating this matter for yourself. Here are a few things to read to get you started: High-fructose corn syrup makes rats fatter then those who eat sugar - 2010 Soy allergy Information Dark Sugar - The decline and fall of high-fructose corn syrup - by Daniel Engber, April 28 (Tue), 2009 Thyroid Cancer on the Rise: Is Soy to Blame?- by Daniel and Onusic, Feb 19, 2012 The Dangers of a High Soy Diets- by Kaayla T. Daniel, on youtube Factsheet: Lactose Intolerance - "The majority of people, about three-quarters of the world's human population, are lactose intolerant: that is, they genetically lack the enzymes needed to break lactose down into the simpler forms of glucose and galactose and thus absorb these sugars into the bloodstream" What About Soy? - "the soybean contains large quantities of natural toxins or 'antinutrients,' (including) potent enzyme inhibitors that block the action of trypsin and other enzymes needed for protein digestion ... They can produce serious distress, reduced protein digestion and chronic deficiencies in amino acid uptake" Soy Protein Used in "Natural" Foods Bathed in Toxic Solvent Hexane by Mike Adams, May 20 (Wed), 2009 Help bring about a more just, humane, rational, and reconciled society by boycotting foods with high-fructose corn syrup, soy bean oil, lecthin, and/or unneeded milk. Write your favorite corporate food supplier and tell them that you are no longer buying or eating their food products because they giving you the 'shits,' due to the fake sugar, fake oil, and the food lubricants they use to make their products. And for those of you who are couch potatoes, just print this page and mail it to your favorite food company. ***Return*** First posted on June 25, 2012
