What the Cows don't even know

  1.  While over 20% of Americans are obese and as many as 1 in 3 U.S. adults could have diabetes by 2050 if current trends continue, according to a new analysis from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention:  For many Americans, health still seems to be put on the back burner or swept under a dining room rug. For many, denial is the key. "If I don't admit it, then im invincible" is the common attitude among many, and our health insurance skyrockets as a all too predictable Predecessor.

So what we ask is," What is really in our food?"

What are these hidden cancer causers that are making us become, ill,depressed and hormonally challenged? To many doctors, they answer this question by prescribing medication rather than focusing on the root of the problem, or prevention(novel idea huh?) But as many inquire, and research themselves with the aid of medical experts such as Dr. Oz and web resources such as www/webmd.com they find out the harsh realities of our poison ladened food.

Let's start with our dairy first:

 the majority of cows milk has sizable quantities of pesticides,  herbicides, and dioxins:some up to 200 times the safe levels). Not to mention potent antibiotics (up to 53) , as well as blood, feces, bacteria, harmful viruses.Yuck! This ' exactly sound like "Milk does a body good" does it?

And here is another tidbit that  me: each bite of hard cheese contains 10 times the cancerous chemicals found in one sip of milk, and 21 times more in a tablespoon of butter!

This is only a fraction of the information out there on milk however it is enough for anyone to re think their daily bowl of cereal. After all, who wants to be the bearer of bad news.

Toxic meat:

Unfortunately, the meat is also laden with these harsh chemicals you don't see on your typical label of USDA Choice Beef. Many link the addition to meat in the diet to increased risk of heart attacks, high cholesterol, strokes, obesity, to name a few.

Bottom Line

You're always safer by purchasing organic dairy and meat products.There are many reputable brands such as "Horizon" and even grocery stores have their own brands now. There are also plenty of local coops to look into. If you are looking to increase your life expectancy and lower your risk for cancer and diseases then definitely check out some additional information on the subject.
