FDA Finally Admits Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic

FDA Finally Admits Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing ArseniChicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic
FDA finally revealed the long kept secret that chicken meat contains cancer-causing arsenic, a toxic chemical that it could kill in high doses, according to the Associated Press.
But the problem is where this arsenic actually comes from and what is worse is mixed with chicken feed on purpose and ends up in the chicken meat you eat.
More than 70% of the chicken, sold for human consumption, were given arsenic in order to accelerate their growth and also were given the healthy color of chicken, turkey and hog meat.
About half of the chickens that were tested, contained inorganic arsenic in the lover, the most toxic cancer-causing chemical, FDA founds.Chicken Meat Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic
Therefore, the manufacturer of Roxarsone, an ingredient in chicken feet containing arsenic, was asked to discontinue the sales of that feed additive, although he admits that the amount is too small to be dangerous to the people who consume it.

The Privileges/Advantages of breastfeeding



Breast milk is widely acknowledged as the most complete form of nutrition for infants, with a range of benefits for infants' health, growth, immunity and development. -- Healthy People 2010, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, Atlanta, Georgia

According to NRDC studies have shown that breast milk is a unique combination of nutrients essential to a child's health, and cannot be duplicated by any laboratory formula. It provides a number of health advantages beginning at birth and continuing throughout a child's life. In fact, a large number of the health problems today's children face might be decreased, or even prevented, by breastfeeding the infant exclusively for at least the first six months of life. The longer the mother breast feeds, the more likely her child will get the health benefits of breastfeeding.It is recommended that a child is breast feed for up to a year.

Does processed meat really cause cancer?





On the 26th October WHO released a statement saying that processed meat causes cancer. I can't imagine the back lash from the producers of these foods.

However, the truth is meat not just processed meat, is the cause of digestive cancer e.g colon cancer and so many health related issues. Food and health researchers  like Dr, Sebi, Dr Brown Pfeifer, George Malkmus, Dr James destroy diseases,  Dr.Campbell have understood the cause and the cure of all diseases are in the foods we eat, have long published these findings.

How does cancer occur? Cancer occurs when there is an undesirable change in the nucleus of the cells of the body(DNA). This results in inappropriate growth of cells which are triggered by internal toxins, external toxins, malnutrition and some other factors.

WHO says eating processed meat may cause cancer. Meats such as beacon, ham and sausages

Bacon sarnie

Processed meats - such as bacon, sausages and ham - do cause cancer, according to the World Health Organization (WHO). According to BBC this statement was released on the 26th October 2015
Its report said 50g of processed meat a day - less than two slices of bacon - increased the chance of developing colorectal cancer by 18%.
Meanwhile, it said red meats were "probably carcinogenic" but there was limited evidence.
The WHO did stress that meat also had health benefits. Cancer Research UK said this was a reason to cut down rather than give up red and processed meats and added that an occasional bacon sandwich would do little harm.

What is processed meat?
Processed meat has been modified to either extend its shelf life or change the taste and the main methods are smoking, curing, or adding salt or preservatives.

Magic and the myth of Nature's most powerful antibiotic 'Oil of Oregano' known to kill parasites, bacteria and viruses that plague the body.



Oregano Essential Oil is well known in natural health communities for its antibacterial properties, and it is even being studied by the mainstream medical community for its potential benefits. It is an antibacterial, antiparasitic, antiseptic, antiviral and immune stimulating.“Studies have shown its usefulness against candida albicans, aspergillus mold, staph infections, vaginal infections, pseudomonas and listeria. A study from the US Department of Agriculture showed that oregano essential oils presented antimicrobial activities against Salmonella and E.coli. 

Eating significant volumes of refined sugary foods and carbohydrate causes low blood sugar.






Eating significant volumes of refined carbohydrates and sugary foods contribute much for having low blood sugar. Intake of these food items normally disables organs like the pancreas, the adrenal glands, and the liver to take care of sugars efficiently. Other reasons for low blood sugar could be associated with malfunctions of some organs like the liver or pituitary glands. 

Low blood sugar treatment
 A daily dose of two apples with peels every meal could just help. Molasses also proves to be of big help for low blood sugar. Having low blood sugar which may be the cause of overexertion or under-nutrition could be resolved by raking in a glass of molasses-made sherbet. This would help ease feelings of faintness because it functions just like glucose in the body.

Another natural remedy for low blood sugar is to avoid intake of refined and processed foods like white sugar, white flour and all their by-products as well as carbonated drinks and those containing caffeine. Intake of salt should also be lessened because salt could contribute to low blood sugar.
When it comes to low blood sugar it also pays to avoid being stressed most of the time. You have to take time to relax and have your mind and body at peace.

The Benefits of eating Parsley leaves


7 Surprising Health Benefits of Parsley

Parsley is a pretty little Mediterranean herb that lends a sprinkling of colour to your plate. But let’s not think of it as just a garnish—after all, parsley has been around for more than 2000 years, and boasts some time-tested benefits that you should know about.
  • Parsley is rich in many vital vitamins, including Vitamin C,  B 12, K and A. This means parsley keeps your immune system strong, tones your bones and heals the nervous system, too.
  • It helps flush out excess fluid from the body, thus supporting kidney function. However, the herb contains oxalates, which can cause problems for those with existing kidney and gall bladder problems.
  • Regular use of parsley can help control your blood pressure. The folic acid in this herb is like a tonic for your heart.
  • Parsley essential oil, when massaged into the scalp, may reduce hair loss.
  • Use parsley daily, and you’ll feel relief from joint pain. That’s because the herb has anti-inflammatory properties.
  • Parsley tea relaxes stiff muscles and encourages digestion.
  • Studies indicate that parsley especially its essential oil may have a role in inhibiting cancerous tumours. In fact, scientists have billed it a ‘chemoprotective’ food.

Say no to Soda!

Ever since I stopped taking soda (coke, fanta, sprite, bitter lemon and above all malt drinks) it became easier to drop those pounds. I love malt drinks especially maltina, I had 2 cans of malt a day!. It was very bad for me but I was determined to loose the weight so I made a hard choice to reduce the malt intake to once a day. That was the most difficult decision to make in this health life journey. When I achieved that and observed I could handle it I further reduced it to three times a week then to once a week and now I can go a month without it but I still have it sometimes.

Asides from the fact that soda is dangerous to your health because of the aspartame content, it bloats and expands your stomach plus increases your risk of diabetes.

 Please end your soda addiction

Detox water ready for the day!


This is a mix of apples 'I love apples' 😆, lime, tangerine and cucumber. Let it soak for an hour and drink.

Ice cream or Frozen yogurt ? Don't put that much thought into it there really isn't much difference.

On the alkaline chart sweetened, unsweetened frozen yogurt and ice cream are acidic.We all know that ice cream is sweetened therefore, we tend to be more conscious of our sugar intake but yogurt often contains more sugar and extra chemicals than  ice cream.  

This article was posted on CNN edition onlineNot all "yogurts" are created equal.

Frozen yogurt might remind you of your favorite probiotic-rich morning Chobani — but not all "yogurts" are created equal. The freezing process used to make your dessert may kill some of the healthy gut bacteria found in regular yogurt a . To compensate, some manufacturers of fro-yo (and standard yogurt, too) add extra probiotics after production.
And that subtracts the health point.
But probiotics alone don't make frozen yogurt a health food. "People don't realize that it often has more sugar than ice cream," says Dana Kofsky, a California-based nutritionist. Per each half-cup serving, frozen yogurt contains roughly 17 grams of sugar. Meanwhile, ice cream only has about 14 grams of the sweet stuff for the same serving size. "In order to get rid of the tart taste, [fro-yo companies often] add sugar," says Kofky.
When having a frozen desert, just watch your portions.
