Microwave containers leaching toxins into food at alarming rates

(NaturalNews) Microwaving food inside containers made of plastic, cellophane, cardboard and styrofoam may leach toxins into the food and increases the levels of carcinogens being consumed. Since most containers do not visibly melt or get hot, consumers have the false notion that the synthetic boxes and wrappers are not releasing toxins, but new research shows they are, and at levels that are alarming. Consumers are guaranteeing a triple dose of poison when they buy processed food (which contains synthetic ingredients), “nuke” them in a microwave, and then consume the radiated chemicals and vapors from the packaging. The FDA claims that if it’s labeled microwave safe, then it’s fine, but there are several major gray areas being exploited . The FDA also says that microwave-safe plastic wrap should never directly touch the food. The labels on many plastic wraps recommend a one inch space between the plastic and the food, but it’s all locked in the oven with your food anyway. For starters, chemical migration from packaging material to a food does not require direct contact . Excessive heat applied to the container drives off the chemical gases from the container. It is now proven that chemicals like BPA, Bisphenol-A, seep out of the container and affect humans, causing hormonal imbalances, lowered sperm count, and various other forms of cancer. Watch out for rubber lids and their containers. Also put on the caution list freezer bags which can emit phthalates and BPA. The amount of toxins released from the synthetic depends on how long you freeze or cook them for, and also the strength of each particular microwave oven. Meat trays, foam containers, coated cardboard, and most soup and noodle cups top the danger list. It is very common to cover a plate of food with Saran wrap . These “methods” are not safe at all. The FDA claims that leached substances pose no threat to a person’s health . They say to use containers and materials that are specifically labeled as microwave-safe, but not to microwave margarine tubs and carryout containers from restaurants. That brings us to research the difference between margarine tubs and all other plastic containers. Some plastics marked with recycle codes 3 or 7 can actually be made with BPA. Yogurt, butter, margarine, cottage cheese, sour cream, and many more similar foods are all sold in plastic containers, many of which are made from Polypropylene (plastic # 5), one of the least-recyclable plastics. Most city recycling centers won’t even accept it! How can the FDA allow toxic chemicals in food containers that are not recyclable? Understanding this is important to realizing the true betrayal we face with the FDA. In other words, it is not acceptable to incur the expense of sorting, collecting, cleaning and reprocessing containers, but it is acceptable that we treat millions of Americans with chemotherapy after “eating” cancer . Radiation is the result of nuclear decay. In simplest terms, a microwave oven decays the molecular structure of the food and packaging by using radiation. Had the manufacturers named them radiation ovens, it’s very doubtful they would be popular today. Solution: Get rid of the microwave oven right now, and just deal with cleaning your own safe pot or stainless steel pan. Then drastically reduce your use of plastic. Look for natural alternatives like textiles, solid wood, bamboo, and glass.

Using smart phones, tablet computers can lead to ‘text neck,’ claim doctors

(NaturalNews) All that hunching over to look at your mobile phone or table computer screen can take a heavy toll on the joints and bones in your neck, claim doctors who have seen a massive increase in the number of patients coming to them with “text neck” symptoms. In some cases, the condition can become so severe that an individuals natural neck curvatures become reversed, which can lead to chronic headaches and even neurological problems. A person’s normal neck curvature is marked by a natural “C” curve, which indicates that the spinal cord and its corresponding nerves are in a relaxed, tensionless position. But when a person bends his or her neck to look down at a screen, for instance, these tissues and nerves become stretched — and routine, prolonged stretching can stress neck tissue so badly that the entire bone structure of the spine becomes altered. “Text neck is caused by the neck being flexed for a prolonged period of time,” said Rachael Lancaster from Freedom Back Clinics in Leeds, England, to the UK’s Telegraph . “Sufferers are increasing as the use of smart phones and tablet computers become more popular.” Maintaining a healthy posture is crucial for preventing back, neck and other skeletal problems in general. And particularly as it pertains to the critical head and shoulders area, remembering to take breaks from work by looking up, relaxing the neck, and keeping one’s shoulders back instead of hunched forward, can make all the difference in preventing further problems down the road. “Imagine sitting on your ankle sideways for ten minutes. It would feel stiff and sore when you returned it to its natural position,” added Lancaster. “This is exactly what people are doing with their necks. If people continue to put their necks in these positions, the body will gradually adapt to the stresses.” Besides simply remembering to shift positions every once in a while, smart phone and tablet computer users (as well as anyone else that hunches over to write or read) can remember also to hold their devices up in front of their face, rather than down in their lap. By adjusting how they sit and at what angle they view such devices, users can help to prevent the onset of back, joint, and neurological problems.

US Constitution not applicable to veterans: Those unable to pay child support can end up jailed without trial

(NaturalNews) Delinquent U.S. parents who fail to pay court-ordered child support, regardless of their circumstances, are not subject to the same constitutional protections as those charged with violating other laws. Even war veterans who have faithfully fulfilled their child support obligations for many years, but have suddenly lost their jobs or have otherwise come upon legitimate hard times, can be jailed without a trial — and in some states, they can even be thrown in prison arbitrarily without any sort of legal representation. MSNBC reports that while most cases of child support delinquency are presumably due to parents simply not wanting to pay, some cases involve a legitimate inability to pay. But as far as many court judges are concerned, the simple act of not paying is enough to warrant prison time, regardless of the situation. And for some down-and-out veterans, this has made their already difficult lives even worse. “I felt that with my payment history and that I had just started working, maybe I would be able to convince the judge to give me another month and a half to start making the payments again,” said 39-year-old Randy Miller, and Iraqi war veteran, to MSNBC . Miller had faithfully paid child support for more than ten years, but unexpectedly lost his job in 2009. Miller was recently hired in a new position, and had made this fact aware to the Floyd County, Ga., judge that presided over his recent court appearance, noting that he would soon be able to start making payments again. But the judge apparently did not care much for Miller’s situation, and “went ahead and decided to lock [him] up,” where he remained for three months. A similar situation occurred to 58-year-old Thomas Ball, a father and military veteran from New Hampshire, who had also faithfully paid child support for years, but lost his job unexpectedly. But in Ball’s case the situation ended in tragedy when, out of desperation, he doused himself in gasoline and lit himself on fire in front of the Cheshire County Court House where he was to be sentenced to prison for his inability to pay. These and many other cases of unconstitutional, not to mention compassionless, acts of supposed justice in enforcing child support laws are an affront to honest, hard-working individuals — many of whom are veterans — that come upon difficult times outside of their control. Rather than be treated like guilty criminals, the law must be modified to recognize the difference between inability and indifference.

Vitamin D levels low in African-Americans with multiple sclerosis

African-Americans who have multiple sclerosis (MS) have lower vitamin D levels than African-Americans who don’t have the disease, according to a new study. However, most of the difference in vitamin D levels was due to differences in climate and geography.
