Why our food is hazardous to our health By Sandy Powers The National Marine Fisheries Service lists China supplies 70 percent of America’s tilapia. China and Thailand are the main suppliers of imported shrimp. After traveling over two thousand miles across the Chinese mainland and spent five days on the Yangtze River, I was appalled at the condition of our imported seafood from Asia. The waterways of China and Hong Kong are so polluted with industrial chemicals, agricultural waste and human waste that seafood exporters must rely on antibiotic treatment, at just about the fish life. I witnessed several bloated and decomposing body, human and animal, floating down the Yangtze. The emptiness of the Yangtze River in the waterway, from which a large proportion of the exported seafood is fished. Fish from fish farms in Asia is not healthier than fish caught in the wild. Thai and Chinese ponds are notoriously dirty and full of antibiotics. The FDA discovered the presence of the powerful antibiotic chloramphenicol, shrimp imported from Asia. Studies link between chloramphenicol, a carcinogen, anemia and leukemia, especially in children. In a recent article, CBS News Correspondent Wyatt Andrews food safety expert Caroline Smith DEWAAL “Chloramphenciol quotes is a serious problem in the supply of food,” she said. ” It’s like a drug that n is not required. “ Catfish imports from China are another serious problem for the presence of antibiotics. Flouoroquinolone antibiotics, has the FDA banned for use in foods, its presence in the tests conducted on catfish imported from China. “In addition to health hazards, and imports were a threat to the economy of the Mississippi Delta, which offers more than three-quarters of the catfish eaten in the United States, a report said on National Public Radio broadcast. An influx of cheap imports from Asia is U.S. catfish farmers business. Since only about one percent of our seafood is from the FDA, which imported the most contaminated seafood can be monitored to be found on our table. Our imported fruits and vegetables are not fairing better. According to an Associated Press analysis of FDA documents, border inspectors consistently reject Mexican peppers and chilies. Ten percent of the peppers and chilies were rejected infected with salmonella. Since the FDA inspects less than one percent of all food in the country, ten percent of one percent is alarming. Mexican imports interference affect not only Salmonella and E. coli, but also the heavy use of pesticides in agriculture in the Mexican industrial products more. It’s called “Circle of Poison.” Mexican chemical company to sell that pesticides are banned AGRIFARM in this county. There is no regulation in the United States on the export of pesticides banned or not. Few, if any, controls exist for the use of pesticides in fruits and vegetables grown from farmers in Mexico. With fifty percent of imported fruits and vegetables from the United States from Mexico, we have an intolerable problem of contaminated food. Since the FDA is underfunded and short of it to change for the consumer power. First, do not buy fresh seafood and frozen foods from Asia. Support your local fisheries and fishermen. Fish farms in the United States usually use clean water, no antibiotics and no chemicals. If your local grocery store only leads Asian imports, fish and seafood demand of the United States, or safer imports from Canada, Australia and New Zealand, for example. World trade will not disappear. Make sure to buy the imports safer. Second, to limit fruit and vegetables from Mexico to reduce intake of pesticides. Buy Locally, if possible. Shop your local farmers and agricultural markets. Buy fruit and vegetables. Plant your own garden. You are the author’s own health. Protect your health with healthy eating habits. to leave the source of a food are a danger to your health. Sandy Powers www. organicforhealthsite. com
