I just opened my copy of Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle." On the first page inside the cover, I read this:
"...But Upton Sinclair's fame rests on his muckraking novel The Jungle, a solidly researched expose of Chicago's meat-packing industry. The public furor that followed its publication in 1906 led directly to the passage of the Pure Food and Drug Act later that year..."
In the book, which begins with Lithuanian immigrant Jurgis Rudkus' struggle to support his family working in a meat-packing plant, we see the unscrupulous plant ownership allowing/promoting junk and fillers to be mixed in with the meat.
So in 1906, they were mixing unhealthy junk and fillers into our food.
In 2025, they're mixing unhealthy junk and fillers into our food.
I have this sneaking suspicion that federal bureaucracies sometimes act in their own best interests, rather than ours.
As another observed here after a century of f.d.a. "protection" our food is much more dangerous now than it was before f.d.a. was formed. It obviously is not the answer.
Our FDA is captivated by those economic enterprises that benefit from selling chemicals to the food industry and beyond. About 50 years ago I visited Miles Labs in Indiana that sold one-a-day vitamins. They were at that time a division of Bayer America. Now transformed back to Bayer of Germany. Annual sales of their vitamins at that time was 450 million dollars. Their sister division made food dyes and sold 450 million per year at 16 cents a pound. It is a 1.7 billion dollar business today. A small part of the told dye business. All canned vegetables have food dyes added for disguising any off color vegetables etc. In addition the can linings are plastic coated giving off trace toxins such as Bis Phenyl A. The deep dive into all the negative impacts have no effect on the FDA's activity. Why? Regulatory Capture. Bayer bought Monsanto for 5 Billion and now must pay out 5 Billion for the great harm Round-up has done. Protecting the chemical industry is on going over the protection of humanity. If you do a deep dive on Bayer, you will learn about all the RX drugs they marketed that harmed and had to be removed from distribution. The Jungle was a great book, but only the impact on the meat industry was published. Upton also expressed his ideas for social justice which was erased from the published book.
So, apparently Sinclair's attempt to clean up our food had the opposite effect. Further, his attempt to highlight the plight of recent (at the time, primarily Polish if I recall) immigrants wasn't successful either.
OK I'm more dyslexic/ADD these days with a touch of TIA so can you be more concrete, and obviously my brain is not functioning as well these days.
So are you saying written word of the narrative has totally captured everything for their gain and manipulations ,
or,
written words from the front line humanitarians that experience the reality of what's going on words can expose the narratives if humanity can find those words and be able to read them, and/or understand them😬
Do not know about now but germany once had a no adulteration laws for their beer. Why not have similar laws here for food. Manufacturers forced to prove any additive beneficial to customers, not the manufacturer. And proven to be safe obviously.
Absolutely, about no adulteration in beer and in wine. Why does France not need sulfites in wine and the only reason I mentioned this is so many people are allergic to it and they get headaches and inflammation, but when you go to France there's absolutely no problem, and as we know same thing with their grains, and a reporter also mentioned this that he has gluten intolerance but in Europe he had no problem with their breads, and I believe it's because of the GMO's and the decreased or zero use of glycol phosphates? You know what I mean. If there's any good ideas in all of our rants and suggestions I'm sure Malone can summarize and utilize it hopefully, or give it to somebody that our government considers user-friendly🤨. I really am grateful for all of the input and the increased awareness, as well as the camaraderie. And if I feel somebody is just spreading miss information and or looking to stir things up, I just hit delete/block, we have better things to do with our time?
I understand that but I also think it's regulated, but my point is France gets along just buying without it. And our bodies like their wine a lot better, not that I can afford any of their wine these days, and regardless I cut incredibly back on all alcohol consumption it just makes sense, and I really need all the brain cells I can muster.❤️ thanks for sharing
Yup, or cardboard, raw diets help profoundly with weight Control, lol. It also helps with some animals being so food driven because they crave the carbs. I could be wrong but people think they're doing a service with the expensive food with chickpeas and rice and etc. but cats truly need a more meat driven diet and the chickpeas and even sometimes the rice have glycol phosphates in them and I causes a lot of problems with our pets and dry foods possibly these days along with the synthetic vitamins. Why are things so complicated. I can afford .5 cats I now have five inside and 7 to 10 outside . I have to say since I've been feeding wet can with 1/10 mix kibble and broth, And Raw inside the kittens are much larger with bigger bones and healthier in general?
James, what a coincidence! I was just thinkin' tha same thing... Maybe, just maybe, the public's best interests aren't always put first...sounds crazy, I know...
Thank you for helping to try to calm the MAHA doubters as to the process needed to make any headway on these poisons. One step at a time. The list of foods that are contaminated with these dyes is overwhelming and even tho I have eaten organic for many years, I fell through the cracks of discernment. These days I am so much more careful, and even then I continue to need to pay attention. For the people that don't know or perhaps care, if they live to an elderly age the problems will mount up, let alone the young! What an eye-opener!
Hygiene! Worked in a well known hosp. in the Tex. Med. Center where employees from china and other locales demonstrated a fundamental lack of knowledge re indoor plumbing--particularly flushing and hand washing. Hard to believe this problem does not exist in ag. fields.
Rather than developing better testing, why not ask why in the pleuperfect hell are there 200-300000. chemicals added to food anyway? And simply quit using them. It will be impossible to perform synergy studies on anywhere near this number of compounds and as this article pointed out powerful synergistic interactions can be expected
and it will save a lot of money in studies that are, in fact, unnecessary if they follow your advice! stop using colorants. stop using chemicals. they are in meds, for Gods sake! I recently bought a D3 vitamin and noticed there is soy oil in it. Why do they put garbage in something that is aimed at making you better???
They and the public majority won't be be convinced at the beginning to simply do that. There is a strategy. Bobby understands that from his reading and education.
Again, education. The populace hears "take Vit D3 for health". The companies comply to make the moola. The catch is they want top $$ and majority don't pay any attention, so they get away with cheap oils while pretending they are selling well being. Gotta check those labels. I'm known to mess up too. I bought what I though would be a great low sugar wafer (sweet). Got them home, treated myself to a couple. Bam, terrible gastric pain. Low and behold, wheat was in there and I missed it. We learn quickly from those boo boos!
Been there done that, and I wonder if when you order on Amazon they don't switch out what you have ordered for something else that is similar, but has all the toxic shit in it. I tried to take pictures of what I buy but then I can't find them. Hmmnnn.
they even do it with other items as well. Last year I ordered 2 packs of jigsaw puzzles. I knew very well which ones. The first ones arrived, and the next package contained a double (which was already included in the first). When I looked at my order form, they had exchanged the (probably no longer available) puzzle with one I already had. They won't sell me another one! Only order from amazon if there is absolutely no other way to get things.
Thanks, maybe I'm not as crazy as I thought. I do it because of the pricing and I know that it would be better if I go out into the community, but I don't have the money nor the means really to do that these days. It's all good, and thanks for sharing. But I'll also say I have gotten so much free stuff like canned cat food because it arrives damaged consistently because of their total stupid stupid way of packing with white cardboard and no padding so it's like a rock Tumblr, and the Amazon rep say we will address this issue and it will never happen again, well it's gone on for a couple years but, I get cat food that I can't afford otherwise because it's free, along with other items for the same reason😬. ❤️
Me too I cannot believe I bought a buffered sodium ascorbic vitamin C and it on Amazon and had tons of additives in it I could've sworn I checked it before I bought it??? I know I never would've bought it if I would've seen the additives and especially the last one which was a doozy🫤
Cooking is good, however a lot of people have been cognitively damaged and it takes higher functioning to find the ingredients, to get the ingredients, to put the ingredients in the recipes together, and that's just way too much overload for so many people these days. So be tolerant to others That no longer have the time, money, skills to do what you do which I think is fantastic❤️
Keto and carnivore is really easy for me you fry the steak/hamburger/egg you eat it. And I can even handle making real butter without the way and milk salad in it (sorry can't remember the name) That is help profoundly also❤️
Keep sharing to support other people and give them ideas and how to help humanity and their health ❤️
I was thinking more in terms of chefs, wives and in restaurants. I'm personally a sorry story when it comes to cooking. But the folks who deliver raveworthy offerings seem to add well beyond raw materials. Some could contain culprits
when you bake your own bread it has 5 ingredients. when you buy that sponge in the store it contains 30 or so, most with unpronounceable names. No wonder everyone gets sick of that.
Yep been there done that, but these days there's glycol phosphate in our grains, and many of our grains are genetically modified and or polluted whether we know it or not. I also believe Kennedy will help solve the problem on real labeling so we can make real choices And what they put in our bodies period when it says organic, those companies that get those certifications have money for sometimes extraneous things that other organic farmers can't afford to buy in order to qualify to get that organic label, and there's absolutely something fishy there, but it might be better than nothing Bye-bye and organic. We gotta eat something, especially for us that just don't have the means and are the energy to grow or raise our livestock anymore😥😥😥❤️
All fine and dandy but why does a ban today not take effect until 2026 or later? The recipes for these foods already exist as these foods go to Europe where these dyes are already banned. It’s very frustrating that companies are allowed to poison us for even more time while any country but us stays healthy. Damn shame.
There is a slow marching solution for the government to resolve these issues. We have been dealing with it for decades but the government produced covid virus that China intentionally spread throughout the world was the acceleration many billionaire globalists rubbed their hands together and were sickly aroused by. Take away peoples individual rights and make them property of the state. This solves most all of the American governments problems. There are many trials of this in states now with despicable Democrat Communists bringing bills to the floor of additional states to vote on by their Communist legislatures.
The other day I mentioned the Rivera family who refused to vaccinate their 9 month old child and subsequently fled to Texas where the state of Massachusetts found them and had the child protection services from Texas take the children and have both parents thrown in jail. The father is serving a 12 month jail sentence in Texas last I heard. Well now the state of Massachusetts is trying to pass a few bills eliminating religious exemptions from parents and families all together, forcing these vaccines onto children or else they cannot go to public or private school period. This also ties into parents rights, if their child shows any sign of transgender tendencies the school can give the child puberty blocking drugs etc. without the parents consent or knowledge. Can I ask why do we have to use religious exemptions, can’t we be conscientious objectors? You know my body my choice! This goes far, FAR beyond any tyrannical action committed by King George in the 1700’s. These same laws are already in effect in several states and are up for votes in many more. This is pure communism. Communism, Socialism, Marxism, Fascism by a government all are similar in their quest for total control over their subjects life. Just so you know illegal immigrants are exempt from the Massachusetts bill. I thought America was “The land of the Free”. How is it possible these Communist’s are running state after state and imposing their tyrannical rule over the people. The governor and mayor here in Massachusetts should be pulled out of their offices and tarred and feathered to say the least! They have been poisoning me now for my whole life, maybe it’s time for a change. J.Goodrich
It seems to me many of the laws you mention are to impact the citizens. The illegal aliens aren't effected. In fact the laws get designed to require the citizens to support the ias.
Sorry for my sarcasm, I wasn’t in a great mood today. Massachusetts knows exactly what it’s doing. They are making citizens sick, while illegal aliens stay healthy. If these vaccines are so safe and effective, if a child’s family decides to not sicken their child with 70 autism causing vaccines aren’t the other children that are all jabbed up safe?? I don’t get it….
And like I said in a post further down, if they can make up rules, why can't we make up rules to actually help humanity, we are the ones paying for all the extra testing(why can't we just use Europe's testing), and definitely not profiting from it, and ? ❤️🙏❤️
How far?? Close to California ?? Even here in Colorado things are bad. I've heard our illustrious Senator Bennett is working out a deal to swap places with our fabulous Governor Polis. Bennett, I guess figures he'll be a shoe in for the governor's slot and then he will campaign the heck out of getting Polis to the Federal Senate seat.
This is a very well organized and written article. As one who no longer writes regularly, I appreciate the effort it takes to write simply, and yet convey not so simple messages. (At least it did me. There were drafts, and more drafts. Now, I don't even try. LOL.) Your article also explains why HHS's strategy of addressing food dyes first makes sense in the long term.. I wish your explanation could be shared further.
I have started reading the labels looking for various things including dyes. What I found is that all the snack items from Europe use natural dye, mostly from vegetables and fruits. They are way ahead of us in this regard!
At first I had to purchase these at specialty stores but I find them now making their way into my local supermarket.
Yes, Aldi's has a section of European brands, as well as cheeses at an affordable price. Still check the labels. And I don't see why we can't use Europe's test and rationale for making changes here in the US, versus wasting our money and the testing as well as time. Sorry I know I'm repeating myself again😬
Is what I'm suggesting called common sense. I think Malone as well as Kennedy are using that word a lot more these days. I'm gonna repeat this again if all the other agencies can bend the rules and ignore them, it's time they get a dose of their own medicine and the only differences it's helping humanity and not bankrupting them. I'm tired of double standards and bureaucratic red tape and delays that only serve to harm humanity and make Us more ill and stressed because of intentional delays, because they can.
It’s because they can and they make a lot of money doing it. Petroleum products are a lot cheaper than fruits and vegetables for creating food dye. It’s the same thing with fluoride, an industrial waste product that is very expensive to dispose of. Industry found a use for that poison and convinced water companies to use it.
Yes and that's why they use synthetic vitamins. And also to make the studies fail they use synthetic vitamins versus the real forms. And one more thing😆,
Butter oil? Used in candy and other processed foods, is actually canola oil. Just like high fructose corn syrup, it sure does taste good. As we know seed oil really aren't good for us, and high fructose corn syrup is now on the top 10 for causing cancer? in HOPE/Merrick MARIK studies along with sucralose I think. I could not believe things that I trusted like Atkins products as well as keto chow shakes and tons of pop/soda, ice cream, dog food have sucralose in it? Please never hesitate to correct me if I'm wrong, as I truly would not want to spread misinformation, but I know I'm totally right that aspartame being in so many of our sodas and trusted brands of drinks that have been bought out by big business, is on the top of the list as a cancer-causing agent and that's why Europe doesn't use it ? So sad.
I pray the reason the business is continuing to use all those products is because it's cheaper for them, and they are being very very naughty if they're doing it because they want to keep us sick, or make us sick😮💨😢🤨.
I do believe that business is using these solely for profits. I would hope that they have no evil intent.
As far as sweeteners go, I think it was Dr. Berg who showed what they fool us with by showing the many types of sugar by other names. Some low sugar shakes I was drinking because of diabetes actually had quite high sugar levels but only the one with the actual name sugar made it into their advertisements.
I never thought I would have to be educated in so many ways just to eat safely!
Sweet, yes I don't follow Marcola and McCullough anymore because of that? And I'm curious what DOCTORS you're talking about. Because I have found miss information out there and AI generated news that it appears like it's from the people I follow but when I check up on it it's not. When they come alone COMMENT ON MALONE THAT HE IS HEAD OF something Cabal, yes I did check and his current posts are still spot on for what's going on in our world with him trying to help humanity to understand it better. lol and it just reinforced my belief in who he is and what he does❤️
so what you're doing is working for you, fantastic and you're just one more person that is validating what others have told me with their first-hand experience and through articles. I gave my opinion to a gentleman that could really stand to hear what you just shared, but all I could do was refer him to Resources to validate what you're doing. I have to share with you if you didn't see it in one of my dissertation posts🫤. I went for an annual because it's the only doctor that is paid for by Insurance, he knew better than to ask me about a jabs any tests.
finally, finally my heart rate and blood pressures are coming down after 3 to 4 years, because I'm doing DMSO and he had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to go on Statens now. I said hell no,
and at least he laughed. But he prescribed me an antifungal because I have mild scalpringworm for over six months now that he says was a bacterial infection, Because I work with a lot of feral cats, to do all of the Ferrel cats. Then when I read all of the side effects and precautions there's no way I would take it because the benefits way outweigh the risks and I'm even at higher risk because I'm taking a medication that is listed as a no no if you plan on taking the medication for the antifungal for a month or two months. So I'm gonna beef up the chlorine dioxide, for me and the inside kitties.
And one more thing 🤗
I noticed in the inserts they are cutting out a lot of information and telling you to refer to a website and etc., for more side effects safety data, thus there were a lot of blank pages in the information that the pharmacist usually gives you. I hope Kennedy nails that quickly as it all should be in the package inserts, just like it should've been in the COVID-19 vaccine information sheets that were blank initially, and they didn't want us to see it for 70 some years, we got to get a clue here. Nothing surprises me these days. Sorry just venting❤️ keep sharing what's working for you so other people can make better decisions, thank you for taking the time to share❤️
Both red dies are very prevalent in our animal kibble and even wet foods. Sometime cost is such a factor that I just have to rotate their foods, and pray for the best
Sometimes there’s even worse stuff in dog food. After 3 high grade mast cell tumors requiring surgery and chemo, we switched our pit to limited ingredient foods and started giving him turmeric. He’s had 4 more tumors since, all low grade, no chemo needed. I suspect that the sugars in dog food might be the culprit but I don’t know for sure.
So sorry, studies are also showing that vaccine injection sites have higher probabilities of tumors, and holistic vets are suggesting giving injections in different places and minimizing vaccines of possible. I have followed quite a few vets that feel this way. If there's anyway you can go to Raw feeding or even just doing toppers That can help a lot. I realize it takes a lot more time and effort. My animals eat better than I do these days, and we kind of share food. Lol, I've even resorted to doing beans a little bit, as keto and carnivore is just too expensive for me❤️
A chemical is a chemical is a chemical. Pesticides, biocides and antibiotics are the only purposive contaminants in the modern economy. Bruce Ames did astonishing work with toxins and risk, and he's virtually unknown in the environmental and safe foods movements.
The dose makes the poison; from military and weather radars to canola oil, to inert nanoparticulates and the color temperature of light. That we humans are omnivores is a hard-earned and ancestral adaptive competency. Even the cosmos bears down upon our physiology with gamma and other exotic forms of penetrating radiation.
Toxicology is an essential profession and art of practice. We need more of them. There is so much more to do, especially in pediatric toxicology.
We know a lot. Most of it's fastidiously ignored and seldom spoken of in the modern commons.
There is so very much more to learn, and so much more yet to be done with what we already know. How sad so much money has been wasted on absurdities and obtusity in the operation of creative graft and racketeering pursuit of diversion and conversion of public wealth; so much time wasted; so much avoidable suffering and so many years of life lost.
We are entrusted with something so precious. It deserves better than sloth and indolence.
For those who have not seen it; the new movie CONCLAVE is a photographic masterpiece capturing the immutability of human nature. The lead character gives a homily to open the conclave. It's just a movie, but these words slowly spoken transcended the moment:
"In my life, I have known many sins, and among them I have come to believe the very worst of all, is certainty."
The Greeks called it Hubris. It's to die for. Nothing kills quite like it.
Not to mention the synthetics/vitamins they're a lot cheaper to produce in mass production but they are nowhere near as bio available and I won't even stand on my soapbox for a poor animals with AFCO which is no different from FDA and just a rubber stamp. And I say this because many articles that I've read by veterinarians and yes those crazy holistic ones and integrated ones etc., but I totally agree with them as our animals are in the same boat as humanity is due to the over vaccinations and the kibble that is fed for convenience, but they're finding a lot of glycol phosphates in it because of the peas and chickpeas and plastics because of the fish as well as heavy metals, and the synthetic vitamins have caused problems in the past because they're sourced a lot of times from the same place because 90%? Of all of the kibble is produced by just four companies that have bought out all of our companies that we used to trust in the past. I'm kind of going bankrupt feeding Raw, but the animals are incredibly healthy, much larger bone structure, and their feces does not smell hardly at all👏👏👏. It comes in handy when you live in a small environment with a lot of animals❤️
Truth-in-Labelling. Full disclosure. Requirements for 3rd party analytic certifications, metrology, chain of custody, certification of origins. Criminal penalties for corporate officers who knew or should have known of fraud or adulteration.
Say what you do. Do what you say. Demonstrate object evidence of what occurred.
First principle after "Do no harm" ... stop digging the pit deeper.
Many years ago, in the early 80’s when my mother was dying of breast cancer, I read a book called “Nontoxic and Natural.” I no longer possess it and don’t know if it can be found but it talked about food dyes, particularly Red Dye #40. So we stopped eating it. That was more than 40 years ago. The risk has been known.
Thank you for this discussion. It helps in understanding the many complexities of effective evaluations of risks.
Have to admit to being bemused, as residents of our county are just informed our water has high levels of carcinogens. So it goes.
Another thought arises as we are adapting to new realities. Loper - Bright. As I understand it laws are now the province of the Congress and the Courts. Do we legally need to develop special accommodations to address the regulatory responsibilities for these complex issues? Does the Congress need its own contingent to develop law as relates to significant new findings?
Its a brave new world out here. Bright and promising possibilities. But how to effectively emerge from where we are is likely to be pretty challenging.
Your points about citizen participation and lobbying are to be well taken. No small part is likely encouraging more informed groups willing and able to promote needed causes. There are presently a few. Are more needed? I remember voting and thinking my responsibilities were satisfied. That our elected officials were taking over to get needed things done. Dumb! Are our youth adequately prepared to understand their necessary roles in pushing us forward?
Is a simple answer chlorine dioxide added to our water to help with a carcinogens? I know a lot of our front line doctors have requested taking off the band of doing more tests for human consumption and treatment of many, many, many conditions and supposedly uncurable diseases and viral conditions❤️???
I understand taking a synthetic medication, but under no circumstances do I want any synthetic product part of my food. This is why we garden extensively and raise most of our own meat.
It's wonderful that so many are willing, able and in a place to be raise their own food. I think we must try to broaden the horizons for all tho. You are lucky to have what you have, so many of the population doesn't. I watch with much hope of inner cities starting gardens in empty lots or on rooftops. I've seen a lady who, in exchange for using someone else's open field, she provides them with produce. There are brilliant ideas, and people who can bring them to fruition, but the majority of the populace needs greater education in this so badly.
It's bad enough that there are 140,000-300,000 chemical candidates out there. The idea that one must look at interactions among these is nearly a mathematical impossibility. Wow, where to start? Has anyone else noticed that gasoline doesn't taste nearly as good as it used to?
After reading some of the comments, it becomes even more clear that the burden of health Really lies with Us. No excuses, no rational lies-ing,; get with the program. Health begins with us and our knowledge and choices, not the FDA, CDC. We have been lazy in our discernment of the intentions of the government , and now is the time to wake up!
I just opened my copy of Upton Sinclair's "The Jungle." On the first page inside the cover, I read this:

This shows the power of the written word, by the way.
OK I'm more dyslexic/ADD these days with a touch of TIA so can you be more concrete, and obviously my brain is not functioning as well these days.
So are you saying written word of the narrative has totally captured everything for their gain and manipulations ,
or,
written words from the front line humanitarians that experience the reality of what's going on words can expose the narratives if humanity can find those words and be able to read them, and/or understand them😬

If there's any good ideas in all of our rants and suggestions I'm sure Malone can summarize and utilize it hopefully, or give it to somebody that our government considers user-friendly🤨. I really am grateful for all of the input and the increased awareness, as well as the camaraderie. And if I feel somebody is just spreading miss information and or looking to stir things up, I just hit delete/block, we have better things to do with our time?
Sulfites are added to prevent spoilage which would not maximize harvest and profitability.
I understand that but I also think it's regulated, but my point is France gets along just buying without it. And our bodies like their wine a lot better, not that I can afford any of their wine these days, and regardless I cut incredibly back on all alcohol consumption it just makes sense, and I really need all the brain cells I can muster.❤️ thanks for sharing
Like I just saw recently -- "How much sawdust can be added to the food before the it is detected??
Yup, or cardboard, raw diets help profoundly with weight Control, lol. It also helps with some animals being so food driven because they crave the carbs. I could be wrong but people think they're doing a service with the expensive food with chickpeas and rice and etc. but cats truly need a more meat driven diet and the chickpeas and even sometimes the rice have glycol phosphates in them and I causes a lot of problems with our pets and dry foods possibly these days along with the synthetic vitamins. Why are things so complicated. I can afford .5 cats I now have five inside and 7 to 10 outside . I have to say since I've been feeding wet can with 1/10 mix kibble and broth, And Raw inside the kittens are much larger with bigger bones and healthier in general?
Do you think?
The only error I see in your conclusion is that "sometimes" should be changed to "always".
James, what a coincidence! I was just thinkin' tha same thing... Maybe, just maybe, the public's best interests aren't always put first...sounds crazy, I know...
Thank you for helping to try to calm the MAHA doubters as to the process needed to make any headway on these poisons. One step at a time.

For the people that don't know or perhaps care, if they live to an elderly age the problems will mount up, let alone the young! What an eye-opener!
Quite a few organic food recalls are due to E. coli contamination. Which says what?
Poor prep and shipping.
often it can be traced to contaminated fields (manual harvesting) and irrigation water.
Hygiene! Worked in a well known hosp. in the Tex. Med. Center where employees from china and other locales demonstrated a fundamental lack of knowledge re indoor plumbing--particularly flushing and hand washing. Hard to believe this problem does not exist in ag. fields.
May it relate to who are being employed and whether big ag and costs of such diversions are factors?
Rather than developing better testing, why not ask why in the pleuperfect hell are there 200-300000. chemicals added to food anyway? And simply quit using them. It will be impossible to perform synergy studies on anywhere near this number of compounds and as this article pointed out powerful synergistic interactions can be expected
and it will save a lot of money in studies that are, in fact, unnecessary if they follow your advice! stop using colorants. stop using chemicals. they are in meds, for Gods sake! I recently bought a D3 vitamin and noticed there is soy oil in it. Why do they put garbage in something that is aimed at making you better???
They and the public majority won't be be convinced at the beginning to simply do that. There is a strategy. Bobby understands that from his reading and education.
Again, education. The populace hears "take Vit D3 for health". The companies comply to make the moola. The catch is they want top $$ and majority don't pay any attention, so they get away with cheap oils while pretending they are selling well being. Gotta check those labels. I'm known to mess up too. I bought what I though would be a great low sugar wafer (sweet). Got them home, treated myself to a couple. Bam, terrible gastric pain. Low and behold, wheat was in there and I missed it. We learn quickly from those boo boos!
indeed. this was before I had my new glasses. Now I can read the small print again.
Been there done that, and I wonder if when you order on Amazon they don't switch out what you have ordered for something else that is similar, but has all the toxic shit in it. I tried to take pictures of what I buy but then I can't find them. Hmmnnn.
they even do it with other items as well. Last year I ordered 2 packs of jigsaw puzzles. I knew very well which ones. The first ones arrived, and the next package contained a double (which was already included in the first). When I looked at my order form, they had exchanged the (probably no longer available) puzzle with one I already had. They won't sell me another one! Only order from amazon if there is absolutely no other way to get things.
Thanks, maybe I'm not as crazy as I thought. I do it because of the pricing and I know that it would be better if I go out into the community, but I don't have the money nor the means really to do that these days. It's all good, and thanks for sharing. But I'll also say I have gotten so much free stuff like canned cat food because it arrives damaged consistently because of their total stupid stupid way of packing with white cardboard and no padding so it's like a rock Tumblr, and the Amazon rep say we will address this issue and it will never happen again, well it's gone on for a couple years but, I get cat food that I can't afford otherwise because it's free, along with other items for the same reason😬. ❤️
Me too I cannot believe I bought a buffered sodium ascorbic vitamin C and it on Amazon and had tons of additives in it I could've sworn I checked it before I bought it??? I know I never would've bought it if I would've seen the additives and especially the last one which was a doozy🫤
I don't buy them online anymore, I think they don't always mention what all is in them!
So that it doesn't?
Aesthetics/appeal and marketing $$ - that's why adulterants are added.
Are some actually needed to process food (including in the home and restaurants) to make foods eatable?
before they existed people cooked too. without all the chemicals.
Cooking is good, however a lot of people have been cognitively damaged and it takes higher functioning to find the ingredients, to get the ingredients, to put the ingredients in the recipes together, and that's just way too much overload for so many people these days. So be tolerant to others That no longer have the time, money, skills to do what you do which I think is fantastic❤️
Keto and carnivore is really easy for me you fry the steak/hamburger/egg you eat it. And I can even handle making real butter without the way and milk salad in it (sorry can't remember the name) That is help profoundly also❤️
Keep sharing to support other people and give them ideas and how to help humanity and their health ❤️
❤️🙏❤️
All 300:,000? We do not need a diet of processed food
I was thinking more in terms of chefs, wives and in restaurants. I'm personally a sorry story when it comes to cooking. But the folks who deliver raveworthy offerings seem to add well beyond raw materials. Some could contain culprits
Hard to say. Culprits gotta go tho
My sentiments exactly. I seem to ask why can't things be simple a lot these days.
when you bake your own bread it has 5 ingredients. when you buy that sponge in the store it contains 30 or so, most with unpronounceable names. No wonder everyone gets sick of that.
Yep been there done that, but these days there's glycol phosphate in our grains, and many of our grains are genetically modified and or polluted whether we know it or not. I also believe Kennedy will help solve the problem on real labeling so we can make real choices And what they put in our bodies period when it says organic, those companies that get those certifications have money for sometimes extraneous things that other organic farmers can't afford to buy in order to qualify to get that organic label, and there's absolutely something fishy there, but it might be better than nothing Bye-bye and organic. We gotta eat something, especially for us that just don't have the means and are the energy to grow or raise our livestock anymore😥😥😥❤️
❤️🙏❤️
It is so fascinating to compare food labels from the U.S. and Europe or Canada.
Fascinating, but outrageous at the same time. Sigh.
Thanks, Well said❤️
Gates & Klaus are doing they're best to be evil, soulless, selfish creatures...but Rockefeller will always be the worst.
All fine and dandy but why does a ban today not take effect until 2026 or later? The recipes for these foods already exist as these foods go to Europe where these dyes are already banned. It’s very frustrating that companies are allowed to poison us for even more time while any country but us stays healthy. Damn shame.
You make really good points. But I thought I heard 2029 and I don't want to be spreading miss information. 2026 sounds great to a date further off.❤️
There is a slow marching solution for the government to resolve these issues. We have been dealing with it for decades but the government produced covid virus that China intentionally spread throughout the world was the acceleration many billionaire globalists rubbed their hands together and were sickly aroused by. Take away peoples individual rights and make them property of the state. This solves most all of the American governments problems. There are many trials of this in states now with despicable Democrat Communists bringing bills to the floor of additional states to vote on by their Communist legislatures.
The other day I mentioned the Rivera family who refused to vaccinate their 9 month old child and subsequently fled to Texas where the state of Massachusetts found them and had the child protection services from Texas take the children and have both parents thrown in jail. The father is serving a 12 month jail sentence in Texas last I heard. Well now the state of Massachusetts is trying to pass a few bills eliminating religious exemptions from parents and families all together, forcing these vaccines onto children or else they cannot go to public or private school period. This also ties into parents rights, if their child shows any sign of transgender tendencies the school can give the child puberty blocking drugs etc. without the parents consent or knowledge. Can I ask why do we have to use religious exemptions, can’t we be conscientious objectors? You know my body my choice! This goes far, FAR beyond any tyrannical action committed by King George in the 1700’s. These same laws are already in effect in several states and are up for votes in many more. This is pure communism. Communism, Socialism, Marxism, Fascism by a government all are similar in their quest for total control over their subjects life. Just so you know illegal immigrants are exempt from the Massachusetts bill. I thought America was “The land of the Free”. How is it possible these Communist’s are running state after state and imposing their tyrannical rule over the people. The governor and mayor here in Massachusetts should be pulled out of their offices and tarred and feathered to say the least! They have been poisoning me now for my whole life, maybe it’s time for a change. J.Goodrich
It seems to me many of the laws you mention are to impact the citizens. The illegal aliens aren't effected. In fact the laws get designed to require the citizens to support the ias.
Sorry for my sarcasm, I wasn’t in a great mood today. Massachusetts knows exactly what it’s doing. They are making citizens sick, while illegal aliens stay healthy. If these vaccines are so safe and effective, if a child’s family decides to not sicken their child with 70 autism causing vaccines aren’t the other children that are all jabbed up safe?? I don’t get it….
And like I said in a post further down, if they can make up rules, why can't we make up rules to actually help humanity, we are the ones paying for all the extra testing(why can't we just use Europe's testing), and definitely not profiting from it, and ? ❤️🙏❤️
Your question needs to be heard at a level where it can be authoritatively considered and acted upon!
That state ought to pick itself up and move west
How far?? Close to California ?? Even here in Colorado things are bad. I've heard our illustrious Senator Bennett is working out a deal to swap places with our fabulous Governor Polis. Bennett, I guess figures he'll be a shoe in for the governor's slot and then he will campaign the heck out of getting Polis to the Federal Senate seat.
Sick, sick, sick.

This is a very well organized and written article. As one who no longer writes regularly, I appreciate the effort it takes to write simply, and yet convey not so simple messages. (At least it did me. There were drafts, and more drafts. Now, I don't even try. LOL.) Your article also explains why HHS's strategy of addressing food dyes first makes sense in the long term.. I wish your explanation could be shared further.
I have started reading the labels looking for various things including dyes. What I found is that all the snack items from Europe use natural dye, mostly from vegetables and fruits. They are way ahead of us in this regard!
At first I had to purchase these at specialty stores but I find them now making their way into my local supermarket.
Yes, Aldi's has a section of European brands, as well as cheeses at an affordable price. Still check the labels. And I don't see why we can't use Europe's test and rationale for making changes here in the US, versus wasting our money and the testing as well as time. Sorry I know I'm repeating myself again😬
It’s worth repeating, again and again and again!
Is what I'm suggesting called common sense. I think Malone as well as Kennedy are using that word a lot more these days. I'm gonna repeat this again if all the other agencies can bend the rules and ignore them, it's time they get a dose of their own medicine and the only differences it's helping humanity and not bankrupting them. I'm tired of double standards and bureaucratic red tape and delays that only serve to harm humanity and make Us more ill and stressed because of intentional delays, because they can.
’
It’s because they can and they make a lot of money doing it. Petroleum products are a lot cheaper than fruits and vegetables for creating food dye. It’s the same thing with fluoride, an industrial waste product that is very expensive to dispose of. Industry found a use for that poison and convinced water companies to use it.
Yes and that's why they use synthetic vitamins. And also to make the studies fail they use synthetic vitamins versus the real forms. And one more thing😆,
Butter oil? Used in candy and other processed foods, is actually canola oil. Just like high fructose corn syrup, it sure does taste good. As we know seed oil really aren't good for us, and high fructose corn syrup is now on the top 10 for causing cancer? in HOPE/Merrick MARIK studies along with sucralose I think. I could not believe things that I trusted like Atkins products as well as keto chow shakes and tons of pop/soda, ice cream, dog food have sucralose in it? Please never hesitate to correct me if I'm wrong, as I truly would not want to spread misinformation, but I know I'm totally right that aspartame being in so many of our sodas and trusted brands of drinks that have been bought out by big business, is on the top of the list as a cancer-causing agent and that's why Europe doesn't use it ? So sad.
I pray the reason the business is continuing to use all those products is because it's cheaper for them, and they are being very very naughty if they're doing it because they want to keep us sick, or make us sick😮💨😢🤨.
I do believe that business is using these solely for profits. I would hope that they have no evil intent.
As far as sweeteners go, I think it was Dr. Berg who showed what they fool us with by showing the many types of sugar by other names. Some low sugar shakes I was drinking because of diabetes actually had quite high sugar levels but only the one with the actual name sugar made it into their advertisements.
I never thought I would have to be educated in so many ways just to eat safely!
☺️
Sweet, yes I don't follow Marcola and McCullough anymore because of that? And I'm curious what DOCTORS you're talking about. Because I have found miss information out there and AI generated news that it appears like it's from the people I follow but when I check up on it it's not. When they come alone COMMENT ON MALONE THAT HE IS HEAD OF something Cabal, yes I did check and his current posts are still spot on for what's going on in our world with him trying to help humanity to understand it better. lol and it just reinforced my belief in who he is and what he does❤️
so what you're doing is working for you, fantastic and you're just one more person that is validating what others have told me with their first-hand experience and through articles. I gave my opinion to a gentleman that could really stand to hear what you just shared, but all I could do was refer him to Resources to validate what you're doing. I have to share with you if you didn't see it in one of my dissertation posts🫤. I went for an annual because it's the only doctor that is paid for by Insurance, he knew better than to ask me about a jabs any tests.
finally, finally my heart rate and blood pressures are coming down after 3 to 4 years, because I'm doing DMSO and he had the nerve to ask me if I wanted to go on Statens now. I said hell no,
and at least he laughed. But he prescribed me an antifungal because I have mild scalpringworm for over six months now that he says was a bacterial infection, Because I work with a lot of feral cats, to do all of the Ferrel cats. Then when I read all of the side effects and precautions there's no way I would take it because the benefits way outweigh the risks and I'm even at higher risk because I'm taking a medication that is listed as a no no if you plan on taking the medication for the antifungal for a month or two months. So I'm gonna beef up the chlorine dioxide, for me and the inside kitties.
And one more thing 🤗
I noticed in the inserts they are cutting out a lot of information and telling you to refer to a website and etc., for more side effects safety data, thus there were a lot of blank pages in the information that the pharmacist usually gives you. I hope Kennedy nails that quickly as it all should be in the package inserts, just like it should've been in the COVID-19 vaccine information sheets that were blank initially, and they didn't want us to see it for 70 some years, we got to get a clue here. Nothing surprises me these days. Sorry just venting❤️ keep sharing what's working for you so other people can make better decisions, thank you for taking the time to share❤️
Both red dies are very prevalent in our animal kibble and even wet foods. Sometime cost is such a factor that I just have to rotate their foods, and pray for the best
Sometimes there’s even worse stuff in dog food. After 3 high grade mast cell tumors requiring surgery and chemo, we switched our pit to limited ingredient foods and started giving him turmeric. He’s had 4 more tumors since, all low grade, no chemo needed. I suspect that the sugars in dog food might be the culprit but I don’t know for sure.
So sorry, studies are also showing that vaccine injection sites have higher probabilities of tumors, and holistic vets are suggesting giving injections in different places and minimizing vaccines of possible. I have followed quite a few vets that feel this way. If there's anyway you can go to Raw feeding or even just doing toppers That can help a lot. I realize it takes a lot more time and effort. My animals eat better than I do these days, and we kind of share food. Lol, I've even resorted to doing beans a little bit, as keto and carnivore is just too expensive for me❤️
A chemical is a chemical is a chemical. Pesticides, biocides and antibiotics are the only purposive contaminants in the modern economy. Bruce Ames did astonishing work with toxins and risk, and he's virtually unknown in the environmental and safe foods movements.
The dose makes the poison; from military and weather radars to canola oil, to inert nanoparticulates and the color temperature of light. That we humans are omnivores is a hard-earned and ancestral adaptive competency. Even the cosmos bears down upon our physiology with gamma and other exotic forms of penetrating radiation.
Toxicology is an essential profession and art of practice. We need more of them. There is so much more to do, especially in pediatric toxicology.
We know a lot. Most of it's fastidiously ignored and seldom spoken of in the modern commons.
There is so very much more to learn, and so much more yet to be done with what we already know. How sad so much money has been wasted on absurdities and obtusity in the operation of creative graft and racketeering pursuit of diversion and conversion of public wealth; so much time wasted; so much avoidable suffering and so many years of life lost.
We are entrusted with something so precious. It deserves better than sloth and indolence.
For those who have not seen it; the new movie CONCLAVE is a photographic masterpiece capturing the immutability of human nature. The lead character gives a homily to open the conclave. It's just a movie, but these words slowly spoken transcended the moment:
"In my life, I have known many sins, and among them I have come to believe the very worst of all, is certainty."
The Greeks called it Hubris. It's to die for. Nothing kills quite like it.
Not to mention the synthetics/vitamins they're a lot cheaper to produce in mass production but they are nowhere near as bio available and I won't even stand on my soapbox for a poor animals with AFCO which is no different from FDA and just a rubber stamp. And I say this because many articles that I've read by veterinarians and yes those crazy holistic ones and integrated ones etc., but I totally agree with them as our animals are in the same boat as humanity is due to the over vaccinations and the kibble that is fed for convenience, but they're finding a lot of glycol phosphates in it because of the peas and chickpeas and plastics because of the fish as well as heavy metals, and the synthetic vitamins have caused problems in the past because they're sourced a lot of times from the same place because 90%? Of all of the kibble is produced by just four companies that have bought out all of our companies that we used to trust in the past. I'm kind of going bankrupt feeding Raw, but the animals are incredibly healthy, much larger bone structure, and their feces does not smell hardly at all👏👏👏. It comes in handy when you live in a small environment with a lot of animals❤️
Don't we all live in a small environment with a lot of animals?
😮💨😥😥😥❤️

Guillotine is the only answer !
Many years ago, in the early 80’s when my mother was dying of breast cancer, I read a book called “Nontoxic and Natural.” I no longer possess it and don’t know if it can be found but it talked about food dyes, particularly Red Dye #40. So we stopped eating it. That was more than 40 years ago. The risk has been known.
In the '70's = Red Dye #2 was condemned.
Thank you for this discussion. It helps in understanding the many complexities of effective evaluations of risks.
Have to admit to being bemused, as residents of our county are just informed our water has high levels of carcinogens. So it goes.
Another thought arises as we are adapting to new realities. Loper - Bright. As I understand it laws are now the province of the Congress and the Courts. Do we legally need to develop special accommodations to address the regulatory responsibilities for these complex issues? Does the Congress need its own contingent to develop law as relates to significant new findings?
Its a brave new world out here. Bright and promising possibilities. But how to effectively emerge from where we are is likely to be pretty challenging.
Your points about citizen participation and lobbying are to be well taken. No small part is likely encouraging more informed groups willing and able to promote needed causes. There are presently a few. Are more needed? I remember voting and thinking my responsibilities were satisfied. That our elected officials were taking over to get needed things done. Dumb! Are our youth adequately prepared to understand their necessary roles in pushing us forward?
You are so appreciated keeping us on board!
Is a simple answer chlorine dioxide added to our water to help with a carcinogens? I know a lot of our front line doctors have requested taking off the band of doing more tests for human consumption and treatment of many, many, many conditions and supposedly uncurable diseases and viral conditions❤️???
They are doing all they can to push the envelope and get action or at least consideration.k
I understand taking a synthetic medication, but under no circumstances do I want any synthetic product part of my food. This is why we garden extensively and raise most of our own meat.
It's wonderful that so many are willing, able and in a place to be raise their own food. I think we must try to broaden the horizons for all tho. You are lucky to have what you have, so many of the population doesn't. I watch with much hope of inner cities starting gardens in empty lots or on rooftops. I've seen a lady who, in exchange for using someone else's open field, she provides them with produce. There are brilliant ideas, and people who can bring them to fruition, but the majority of the populace needs greater education in this so badly.
It's bad enough that there are 140,000-300,000 chemical candidates out there. The idea that one must look at interactions among these is nearly a mathematical impossibility. Wow, where to start? Has anyone else noticed that gasoline doesn't taste nearly as good as it used to?
My husband was just commenting on that very thing!! ; > } I for one never developed the taste for that particular beverage!
After reading some of the comments, it becomes even more clear that the burden of health Really lies with Us. No excuses, no rational lies-ing,; get with the program. Health begins with us and our knowledge and choices, not the FDA, CDC. We have been lazy in our discernment of the intentions of the government , and now is the time to wake up!
