Consumer genocide - emulsifiers change our genes and make us fat - Detox with the experts - Second Nature Care

Bet you would rather have the one on your left.  The right looks gross, but it might be healthier. Find out why.

Are you reading labels?  I hope so because many foods contain emulsifiers that derrange our intestinal microbiome and make us fat. Even this beautiful ice cream sundae has common emulsifiers.  If they calories don't get you; the emulsifiers will.  

If the calories don't get you; the emulsifiers will - Consumer genocide - Stop it with Environmental Detox - Second Nature Care

Polysorbate 80, lecithin, polyglycerols, xanthan gum and carrageenan all change your gut bacteria.  And not for the good.  These are emulsifiers that keep oils and fats from separating.  They extend the shelf-life of foods NOT humans. Type II diabetes, heart attacks and strokes are also associated with altered gut bacteria. 

Anything that extends the shelf-life of foods should be suspect and a new study is suggesting that emulsifiers are linked to obesity, metabolic syndrome and inflammatory bowel disease. 

Once again, our FDA approved the use of emulsifiers and you'll find them in organic, gluten-free, non-GMO "healthy foods."  Emulsiers are listed as GRAS generally regarded as safe. In 2013, a study found that over 80% of allowed food chemicals were not tested. There is no safety information on amounts or levels allowed.  This is important because emulsifiers are in everything. 

Eating emulsifiers caused chronic inflammation and in mice with impaired immune systems and they developed chronic colitis. Mice with normal working immune systems developed intestinal inflammation and a metabolic disorder to eat more.  They became obese, hyperglycemic and insulin resistant.  Sound familiar?

We are the mice only we are paying for our own genocide. 

We offer comprehensive stool profile testing so we can find out why you feel the way you do.  We can make dietary corrections, do I.V. ozone and rectal ozone insufflation therapy.

Scientists found that emulsifiers distubed the gut bacteria, the intestinal mucosal layer and brain chemistry. Eating emulsifiers made mice eat more because they did not feel saiety and the emulsifiers changed how the bacteria interacted with the intestines.  All fertile ground for igniting inflammation.  

You want to get healthy so you go and buy reduced fat, dairy-free, gluten-free products, but you are getting hidden emulsifiers that cause metabolic and digestive problems. That explains why when some people who make a radical dietary change to transitional health foods don't lose weight or feel worse.  

You have to stick with real whole foods - nothing prepackaged.  Take a cooking class with Rebecca Meyerson at SimplyHealthyLiving. www.simplyhealthyliving.net
