Are there Dangerous Ingredients in the Food We Eat Every Day?

Unfortunately, the answer to that question is yes.

Do you suffer from health problems like cancer or heart disease? Does your child have ADD or learning disabilities? Are you struggling with weight problems?

Here are 10 Ingredients found in our food that might be causing your health problems:

* Hormones, steroids and antibiotics found in animal products – Even if you don't eat meat, you could still be getting these dangerous ingredients in your diet-if the vegetables you eat are treated with the manure of animals with these in their system.

* Toxins and pollutants - these come from contaminated water and in the air. Even some banned years ago are still in our soil, such as DDT.

* Pesticides, fertilizers and fumigants – Unless you eat only organic produce, your food has been sprayed or dusted with these dangerous ingredients.

* MSG (Monosodium Glutamate) – this is a chemical ingredient which is used to stimulate tastebuds. It may not even be listed on the food label if it were mixed with another chemical prior to being put into our food.

* Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oils – These oils give food a longer shelf life. The by-product of this, trans fats are created and trans fats clog your arteries and increase your LDL or bad cholesterol.
