Dangerous Ingredients Lurking in our Whole Food Supply
Here are examples of what is in many of our foods today-unknown and unseen by the general public.
• Hormones, steroids, antibiotics found in animal products
Research shows these compounds can be absorbed by fruits and vegetables grown in soil treated with manure from animals fed antibiotics.
• Toxins and pollutants from contaminated soil and water
These can stay in our environment years after they've been banned, such as DDT.
• Pesticides, fertilizers and fumigants
These are unnatural compounds.
• MSG (Monosodium Glutamate}
MSG is a neurotoxic flavor enhancer that's hidden in many foods.
• Partially hydrogenated oil
Gives baked goods and snacks longer shelf life but contains high levels of trans fat.
• High fructose corn syrup-With a high glycemic index, it converts to fat more than any other sugar. Usually made with genetically modified corn and genetically modified
enzymes.
• Genes from bacteria, viruses, plants, animals and even humans inserted into plants like soybeans, corn, canola and cotton
Unlike traditional breeding, genetic engineering can create life forms that would normally never exist in nature.
•Artificial colors and flavorings
, Artificial colors are chemical compounds made mainly from coal-tar; artificial flavors are cheaply produced chemical mixtures that mimic natural flavors.
• Artificial sweeteners
Despite claims that these are "safe" food additives, remember they are not natural. For example, aspartame is made up of three chemicals.
• Benzoate preservatives-These are phenolic compounds often added to food to preserve fats and prevent fats from becoming rancid; these preservatives produce low levels of hormones.
The result? Food that has been denatured - stripped of much of its nutritional value and integrity. Food that could potentially cause health issues.
• But with Nuriche LiVE, you can get REAL whole food nutrition. Pure, concentrated, unadulterated, whole live food-based nutrition.
For example, Genetically Modified (GM) crops are designed to withstand herbicides...so farmers growing GM soybeans are using two to five times more herbicides than growers of natural varieties.(1)
GM crops easily pollinate with related weeds, creating "super weeds" that are resistant to top-selling herbicides...forcing farmers to use more toxic herbicides.
Unfortunately, U.S. food manufacturers are not required to put "genetically modified" on any food labels! This leaves the consumer in the dark. In fact, according to the International Food Information Council, 62 percent of Americans surveyed said they knew "a little or nothing at all" about genetic engineering of foods.(2)
As you'll see, Nuriche LiVE gives you REAL whole food-based nutrition from organic and naturally grown fruits, berries, greens, vegetables, seeds, nuts and sprouts, just as Nature intended-free of the possible dangers of biotech engineering and genetic modification.
Another reason why today's common fruits and vegetables are nowhere near the quality of your grandmother's is since the late 1950s, the nutritional content of America's conventionally grown fruits and vegetables has declined, often significantly.
Dr. Donald Davis, a biochemist at the University of Texas, noted that the USDA tracked 13 major nutrients in garden crops from 1950 to 1999 and found six with noticeable declines. Of these, a 38 percent drop in riboflavin...a 15 percent drop in iron...and a 20 percent drop in vitamin C stand out.(3)
Nutritionist Alex Jack found even more shocking evidence when he compared USDA Side food tables from 1963 to those of 2000, as reported in Life Extension.(4)
He found...
50 percent less calcium in broccoli and carrots...
88 percent less iron in watercress...
45.09 percent less vitamin C in spinach...
51.5 percent less potassium in collard greens...
66 percent less iron in apples, oranges and apricots
Why such poor nutritional content in our produce today?
The main culprit is "modern agriculture." Today, most farmers and big food conglomerates use any means to squeeze as much produce out of an acre of land as they can. Chemical fertilizers. Manipulation of soil and seeds. Genetic engineering. Pesticides. And they've violated time-honored holistic farming methods such as crop rotation and natural pest control and fertilization.
So, over time, our soil gets stripped of nutrients, minerals and living organisms. No wonder most fruits and vegetables in America are nutritionally deficient.
Nuriche LiVE addresses this problem head on. How? With a proprietary drying system that locks in the nutritional content of organic and naturally-grown fruits and vegetables without synthetic vitamins, pasteurization and preservatives.
The result? You get a vast spectrum of naturally occurring live whole food based vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and antioxidants your body needs and deserves.
Still there is another reason why you cannot rely on today’s common fruits and vegetables to give you real nutrition like you could in the past.
Some of our most trusted food sources may be tainted.
Today, our typical food sources, especially fruits and vegetables are sprayed with synthetic pesticides, herbicides and chemicals on a regular basis.
Just consider these eye-opening facts...
Pesticide use in agriculture and for home and industrial purposes has increased a whopping 50 percent within the past three decades(5).
Vegetables such as corn, lettuce and potatoes absorb antibiotics when they're grown in soil spread with manure containing antibiotics.(6)
Since WWII, more than 80,000 synthetic chemicals have been created and released into the environment, as many as 1,500 new ones each year! These chemicals, even after they're banned, can last a long time in the environment. For example, DDT was banned over 30 years ago, but it can still be found in the breast milk of women all over the world.(7) And DDT can make its way back into our food supply through foods imported from countries where this pesticide is still used.
High levels of nutrient pollution used in farming and ranching activities are found in our lakes and streams. Is it any wonder there are populations of frogs living in these waters with deformities?(8)
Is it any wonder that according to a recent survey, 70 percent of consumers buy organic foods to avoid pesticides.(9)
Nuriche LiVE''' takes all the worry out of the quality and purity of fruits and vegetables. You get the finest quality organic and naturally grown produce free of pesticides and toxins-in a unique, easy to take, delicious form that you'll love.
