Category: Tide Of Commercialism

This is about the Incessant Greed of Manufacturers to Empty our Pockets with Constant Updating of Tech Devices; Addictive Foods, so we Consume More. Etc Commercialism speaks of Maximizing Profits at Our Expense. They do this by Cutting Costs and making Inferior Products; most of them are Cheapskates offering Less for More; they Villainise True Healthy Foods to Promote Inferior, Detrimental Products; they Brainwash us by Repetition into Buying More; they Compete against each-other for Our Dollars. I Show You Ways We Can Overcome It in Our Homes.

Watch out for Synthetic Sweeteners Masquerading as Natural Sweeteners!

YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO KNOW

These Manufacturers Have NO Conscience!

ARTIFICIAL SWEETENERS – SWEET NOTHINGS FOR YOUR HEALTH?

Artificial sweeteners have been considered a solution to the problems caused by sugar intake. They lack calories and are advertised as a healthy alternative to high fructose corn syrup and sugar. However, studies have shown that consuming artificial sweeteners might make you gain weight faster than if you were consuming regular sugar. Artificial sweeteners slow your metabolism and ultimately trigger you to eat more. The three main ingredients in artificial sweeteners — aspartame, saccharin, and acesulfate potassium — have all been linked to cancer as well as Alzheimer’s disease, autism, chronic fatigue syndrome, lupus, multiple sclerosis and Parkinson’s disease.

I used to use them too (not me, the writer) thinking they were better when compared to sugar since it’s what I was taught in school when I was studying to be a dietitian. If dietitians use and recommend them, it is no wonder we believe they’re good for us, right? Well, as research repeatedly shows, there may not be any good reasons to support the notion that artificial sweeteners are beneficial to us.…

Published on 1 Comment on Preservative In Thousands Of Children’s Food Products Found To Damage Immune System

By Ethan Huff - Health Reporter

The Environmental Working Group (EWG) published a paper recently that exposes a common food preservative for damaging the immune system.

Tertiary butylhydroquinone, or TBHQ, is added to more than 1,250 food products, many of them marketed for children. The latest data shows that it suppresses immunity, which is especially concerning during a global “pandemic.”

Published on March 24 in the International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, the study used data from the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) Toxicity Forecaster, also known as ToxCast.

Based on this data, EWG concluded that TBHQ damages immunity both in humans and animals.

“The pandemic has focused public and scientific attention on environmental factors that can impact the immune system,” says Olga Naidenko, PhD, EWG’s vice president for science investigations and lead author of the paper.

“Before the pandemic, chemicals that may harm the immune system’s defense against infection or cancer did not receive sufficient attention from public health agencies. To protect public health, this must change.”

As it turns out, TBHQ has been used in processed foods for decades.…

Today, I’ve been doing more research on Memory Skills and I came across a book by someone who was Dyslexic and managed to generate an interest in reading – he determined he did not want to seem dumb anymore, he went and purchased a few books on memory and that led to other things. His story sounded interesting and a few of his tips very good. So happens, he has read many self-improvement books and learnt different skills. Then there was some mention about NLP on the sales page and instinctively I backed off.…
