FDA Finally Admits Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic
Even worse, the FDA says its own research shows that the arsenic added to the chicken feed ends up in the chicken meat where
it is consumed by humans. So for the last sixty years, American
consumers who eat conventional chicken have been swallowing arsenic, a
known cancer-causing chemical. (http://www.phillyburbs.com/news/loc...)
But now the evidence is so undeniable that the manufacturer of the chicken feed product known as Roxarsone has decided to pull the product off the shelves (http://www.grist.org/food-safety/20...).
And what's the name of this manufacturer that has been putting arsenic
in the chicken feed for all these years? Pfizer, of course -- the very
same company that makes vaccines containing chemical adjuvants that are
injected into children.
Technically, the company making the Roxarsone chicken feed is a subsidiary of Pfizer, called Alpharma LLC.
Even though Alpharma now has agreed to pull this toxic feed chemical
off the shelves in the United States, it says it won't necessarily
remove it from feed products in other countries unless it is forced by
regulators to do so. As reported by AP:
"Scott
Brown of Pfizer Animal Health's Veterinary Medicine Research and
Development division said the company also sells the ingredient in about
a dozen other countries. He said Pfizer is reaching out to regulatory
authorities in those countries and will decide whether to sell it on an
individual basis." (http://www.usatoday.com/money/indus...)
But
even as its arsenic-containing product is pulled off the shelves, the
FDA continues its campaign of denial, claiming arsenic in chickens is
at such a low level that it's still safe to eat. This is even as the
FDA says arsenic is a carcinogen, meaning it increases the risk of
cancer.
TheNational Chicken Councilagrees
with the FDA. In a statement issued in response to the news that
Roxarsone would be pulled from feed store shelves, it stated, "Chicken
is safe to eat" even while admitting arsenic was used in many flocks
grown and sold as chicken meat in the United States.
What's astonishing about all this is that the FDA tells consumers it's safe to eat cancer-causing arsenic but it's dangerous to
drink elderberry juice! The FDA recently conducted an armed raid in
an elderberry juice manufacturer, accusing it of the "crime" of selling
"unapproved drugs." (http://www.naturalnews.com/032631_e...)
Which drugs would those be? The elderberry juice, explains the FDA.
You see, the elderberry juice magically becomes a "drugs" if you tell
people how it can help support good health.
The
FDA has also gone after dozens of other companies for selling natural
herbal products or nutritional products that enhance and support
health. Plus, it's waging a war on raw milk which it says is dangerous. So now in America, we have a food and drug regulatory agency that says it's okay to eat arsenic, but dangerous to drink elderberry juice or raw milk.
Eat
more poison, in other words, but don't consume any healing foods.
That's the FDA, killing off Americans one meal at a time while
protecting the profits of the very companies that are poisoning us with
their deadly ingredients.
Oh, by the way, here's another sweet little disturbing fact you probably didn't know about hamburgers and conventional beef : Chicken litter containing arsenic is fed to cows in factory beef operations.
So the arsenic that's pooped out by the chickens gets consumed and
concentrated in the tissues of cows, which is then ground into hamburger
to be consumed by the clueless masses who don't even know they're
eating second-hand chicken crap. (http://www.naturalnews.com/027414_c...)
