How much can we trust any big company with our food supply or health products?

in #minnowtowhale7 years ago (edited)


We live in a time where it is becoming very difficult to hide something from the public.
Especially for big companies with huge profits! They are becoming more and more
exposed for what their real concerns are, and it ain’t our health, that’s for sure!

For example The Whole foods Market claims to sell locally grown, pesticide-free, non-gmo
food, but undercover sting operations with hidden camera show otherwise.
Let’s take a look at the sting operation.


It is sad to see we can’t trust big companies with supplying good quality food to us.

Health companies selling dietary supplements and other health products, sometimes use misleading advertising, they try to get your attention with science ,but fail to give you the complete picture.
Be careful with dietary supplements! Find real scientific research, independent studies, not sponsored by companies that sell supplements or pharmaceuticals.
Don’t belief sites that use scientific claims to sell their products! Always look for the real deal.

Be very careful with health products like spirulina and chlorella, because a lot of companies buy it from china, and the regulations for organic food labeling are very weak in china.
You can have an organic farm in china, located
next to a dump or an air polluting factory nearby, and still get a label for organically
grown, while your soil is polluted with heavy metals and chemicals.

The problem with the algae is that they act like a filter, they clean the water from heavy
metals.
So when the air is heavily polluted, these heavy metals and chemicals
end up in the water, and the algae absorb the toxins, so you end up with highly concentrated heavy metals in the end product!
Do some good research before you buy health foods! If necessary you can call the company to ask where’d they buy the product, if they don’t want to give you a clear answer, be suspicious!

I think more and more people begin to wake up to this reality and start to take the responsibility back. Don’t let big companies take care of your food supply or medicine, you can clearly see this is a bad idea!

If you have the space for it, grow your own medicine and food! If you can’t like me, then try
to look for local farmers markets. Most of the time you will find very good quality food there, even for better prices. And you support the local economy!
The big companies with huge profits are those who have destroyed the little man, the local farmers, local grocery store,
local bakeries, local butchers,... the list goes on and on…
They are the BIG reason why it has become so hard to start a little business!

But we can make them go obsolete if we want, if we are not to lazy!

I have got to admit after a hard day of slaving for one of these big companies the laziness is bound to kick in!

If we take our responsibility back for taking care of yourself, they won't have clients anymore to sell their polluted products to.
Bye bye huge profits, bye bye big business!
I think we are slowly waking up to this, and in a few generations we will be much better off then now!
Don’t wait for the future, start with the little things! The first thing I did was, stop buying processed food! Buy fresh, buy local, make your own pesto, make your own mayonnaise, ketchup,... you can go really far with this, as far as you want to go…

It is fun to do, plus you stop supporting these evil corporations!

P.S. start to support and learn about blockchain so the government and bankers lose complete control over our money supply! We will thrive!

Michael, I must say I am really enjoying your posts! I think you are going to do really well! I know it's difficult in the beginning when your posts are not earning, but I've learnt that this is all about what you put in.

I'm resteeming this because I think you deserve more followers!! Xxx

Wow, thank you so much! This really means a lot to me!! I like to do this stuff I found a new hobby 😆

You are doing well!

Would love to read some of your recipes! I do a lot of dishes from scratch, i.e. Making my own sauces and mayos etc, but like you say in your post, this takes time, and sometimes it's easier to just buy from the shop - and most of the time you don't know what you are buying.

My husbands family used to have a chicken farm, and We learnt a lot about organic food. The classification that determines whether a chicken house is organic or not is determined by a few mere centimeters!

I heard about it too. It's an ugly game they are playing, they are so powerful these big corporations that they can make the rules for what is organic and what's not, but I believe they are slowly losing the battle... 😊

Nice work, i hope you grow fast on steemit ;)
