It has become so common that they are now called, \u201cforever chemicals.\u201d Chemicals that are ingested into our bodies and linger there causing a number of illnesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to another study and more research, \u201cwhite rice, coffee, eggs, and seafood are four major dietary culprits for dangerous <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/news\/scientists-raise-concerns-study-suggests-033000791.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>&#8220;forever chemicals&#8221; known as PFAS entering our bodies.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/a> So why are the FDA, who supposed to monitor these food production corporations, allowing this to happen?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Many countries have banned certain chemicals from their food source, why has the US been negligent in doing so? Of course, the profit motive comes to mind. Major food processing corporations are more concerned with money than the health of the people who consume their products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They do not care about families, children, pregnant women, or anyone but themselves. \u201cScientists have linked PFAS exposure to health problems like cancer, birth defects, liver disease, thyroid disease, lowered sperm counts, and other issues, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/environment\/article\/2024\/jul\/04\/pfas-toxic-forever-chemicals-food\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><em>per the Guardian<\/em><\/strong><\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cPFAS aren&#8217;t the only threat lurking in our food and water, though. Microplastics are another emerging concern and have been linked to dementia, pregnancy complications, and other serious potential health impacts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A number of countries around the world have either banned certain PFAS compounds or imposed restrictions. the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has been working to phase out PFAS since at least 2006, and it is continuing to take action to combat these chemicals.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The healthcare industry, also, is complacent in allowing these chemicals into our food and guess why. Because it profits them also. We all know this, politicians know this, and the rest of the world knows this is happening in America. So, what is the overall goal here?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To weaken the people of the US and make them sloppy, unhealthy, debt-driven peasants enslaved to a corporate oligarchy of wealthy people. Many people have been pushing back against this crime against humanity by cutting back on fast food, eating out, and growing their own foods. But still too many people have fallen victim to this tragedy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every time we turn around, there is a report that certain foods contain harmful and deadly chemicals that make us sick with diseases and ailments.
