“Of the five additives that would be included in the ban, three — brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate and titanium dioxide — are banned in the EU. One, the dye Red 3, is banned from use in cosmetic products in America.”

If the bill becomes law, foods that include them will either have to change their formula or not be allowed for sale in America's most populous state.

Foods that could be affected include other treats such as jelly beans, PEZ candy, Trident sugar-free gum, Campbell's soup and smaller bread brands from around America.“

“That's just what the latest research from the non-profit group Environmental Working Group (EWG) showed: more than 75% of non-organic fresh produce sold in the U.S. contains residues of pesticides. That's an even higher percentage than the results of a similar EWG study last year. The report is based on federal data collected from thousands of samples of 46 different conventionally grown fruits and vegetables.”

“Since 2004, the EWG has compiled its "Dirty Dozen" and "Clean Fifteen" lists, based on information from the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Pesticide Data Program.

"The USDA collects thousands of samples of produce every year that are bound for supermarket shelves in the U.S.," explained Alexis Temkin, Ph.D., EWG toxicologist. "Our analysis of data from more than 46,000 samples found that 75% of non-organic fresh produce samples were contaminated with pesticide residues from 251 different pesticides."“

“A common and widely used chemical may be fueling the rise of the world’s fastest-growing brain condition – Parkinson’s disease. For the past 100 years, trichloroethylene (TCE) has been used to decaffeinate coffee, degrease metal, and dry clean clothes. It contaminates the Marine Corps base Camp Lejeune, 15 toxic Superfund sites in Silicon Valley, and up to one-third of groundwater in the U.S. TCE causes cancer, is linked to miscarriages and congenital heart disease, and is associated with a 500% increased risk of Parkinson’s disease.“

A neighbor of mine worked in a water treatment facility and told me years ago that they only can remove the solid materials. They were finding chemotherapy drugs, and pharmaceuticals in,”treated water” that was being released into the nearby rivers. But no one says anything because of the outrage it might cause.
There are regulations on what heavy industries can release into a sewage system, but medical drugs get a bye and a blind eye it seems

“Laughing gas can inactivate vitamin B12 in the body”

“When Oliveri first took the drug, he attached a silver lipstick-sized capsule containing 0.2 ounces of nitrous oxide to a whipped cream dispenser and filled up a balloon that he inhaled the gas from. He liked it right away.

Oliveri said that while the "little crackers" can taste bad, the bigger cylinders are more convenient, tasteless, and produce stronger euphoric effects.

Laughing gas can inactivate vitamin B12 in the body

Nitrous oxide can paralyze people because it destroys nerve cells within the spinal cord by inactivating vitamin B12, which is essential for maintaining the lining of the nerves, Alistair Noyce, a consultant neurologist working in a London hospital in the UK, told Insider.

That nerve damage can also cause tingling and numbness of the affected body part, with the severity of symptoms depending on how extensive the damage is, according to Noyce, who is also a professor at the Preventive Neurology Unit at the Wilson Institute of Population Health, Queen Mary, University of London.

People can also lose their balance because signals that tell the brain where body parts are positioned don't get transmitted properly, Noyce.

Oliveri, who has trouble balancing from the nerve damage caused by nitrous oxide, falls over when his dogs jump on him or pull their leash. He now sends two of his dogs — a chocolate Labrador and German Shepherd — to doggy daycare once a week so they get enough exercise.

Oliveri shared his story to raise awareness of the dangers of using nitrous oxide.

"There's a warning on alcohol bottles, there's a warning on cigarettes that tell you what's going to happen but for nitrous oxide, there's nothing," Oliveri said.“

A man woke up unable to walk. It turned out vitamin B12 was inactivated in his body after he took laughing gas.

A neurologist told Insider he's seeing people in their teens and twenties disabled by nitrous oxide. The Netherlands banned it, and the UK may follow.

Dr Mercola just did an interview with Children's Health Defence on this as well. @Peatress one note he makes is that there are no long term safety data on consumption of these products, also lots of soy and PUFA in the beyond meat products.

This is disturbing, I thought nitrous oxide was only used by dentists, obstetricians, and drag racers. I never thought people would use is as a recreational drug. Good to see that these young people are recovering, hopefully they can make a full recovery and stay clean. Thanks for posting @Rinse & rePeat

I only have hope left, positive outcomes for the betterment of the people when dealing with the courts in Canada is almost a fools errand nowadays. In America there are still glimmers of positive outcomes.

It is not just the 'hidden' nasties. It is practically the entire diet. Drastically reducing PUFA is a very achievable first step in the journey.

Reducing PUFA. It is very much an achievable first step, but as with all first steps it tends to be the most difficult. Learning to cook for yourself is a big help, but it requires time and effort, and in a world of fast and convenient the simple pleasure of preparing a meal and sharing it with those you care about most is unfortunately fast becoming a rarity as well.
