Does your food contain banned, allergenic or even carcinogenic ingredients!?
Have you ever wondered what these ingredients are? Most of these ingredients are chemical additives and may be difficult to pronounce. Most are safe to consume, but some are poorly tested or even dangerous to use!
If you've read an ingredients label lately, youve probably found things like "Acesulfame K, Monosodium Glutamate, Saccharin, Olestra, Partially Hydrogenated Soybean Oil", etc.
Have you ever wondered what these ingredients are? Most of these ingredients are chemical additives and may be difficult to pronounce. Most are safe to consume, but some are poorly tested or even dangerous to use!
For example, research shows that trans fatty acids are very dangerous because they can clog arteries just like saturated fats. The acids raise LDL cholesterol (the bad cholesterol), and lower the good cholesterol levels. That's a one-two punch! The good news is that the food industry is responding to the danger posed by trans fatty acids but the bad news is that you're still eating trans fatty acids... and hundreds of other chemicals , products and byproducts that are possibly dangerous although you may be unaware of it!
Wouldn't it be nice to know if your food additives are safe, poorly tested, or dangerous to use? Would you also like to keep track of your nutrition values? Now you can, with the "Read That Label!" software.
Read That Label! not only scans your products for ingredients that may contain trans fatty acids as mentioned above... it scans your products for hundreds of other potentially dangerous ingredients as well!
"Now come on! Isn't the food industry regulated so as not to cause me harm?"
It is, but only to an extent. For example, in 1977 the FDA proposed that saccharin be banned because of studies that indicated it causes cancer in laboratory animals. However, Congress intervened and permitted the product to be used, provided that foods show a warning notice. In May of 2000, the U.S. Department of Health removed saccharin from its list of cancer-causing chemicals, despite earlier testing as mentioned above. Now the scary thing is that the WARNING NOTICE IS NO LONGER REQUIRED! And how many other products bare this resemblance? Read That Label! is constantly updated with new information so there's no guess work.
