Guest guest Posted November 7, 2008 Report Share Posted November 7, 2008 Forwarding........... Arsenic is being used as a pesticide in chickens and pigs. It is also used for growth. Farmers were lead to believe that the all arsenic passed out in the urine. Not so. So animal waste used as a fertilizer can be a problem also. You really need to buy organic chicken to escape an accumulation of arsenic in your brain, bones and tissue. Here is a study on pigs. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18574196?ordinalpos=1 & itool=EntrezSystem2.PEn\ trez.Pubmed.Pubmed_ResultsPanel.Pubmed_DefaultReportPanel.Pubmed_RVDocSum Rice has been a problem for a long time. It used to be believed that rice from Bangladesh and countries well known for arsenic poisoning needed to be avoided. Studies in the last years have shown that American rice is sometimes even worse for arsenic. In the last year it has been discovered that the bran of the rice accumulates the most arsenic so while we thought brown rice was a healthy choice it is not so because of this. Baby cereals are a huge problem with the levels of arsenic in them being high. You can find various news items here on my website as well as links to studies. http://www.noccawood.ca/cgi-scripts/csNewsPro/csNews.cgi?command=viewnews & databa\ se=Arsenic%20Articles%20Concerning%20Food.db Looking through the arsenic in the news section which is divided up in years will show other articles as well. http://www.noccawood.ca/cgi-scripts/csNewsPro/csNews.cgi Bonita Poulin Canadian Coordinator GLOBAL RECOGNITION CAMPAIGN Multiple Chemical Sensitivity and other Chemically Induced Illnesses, Diseases & Injury affecting civilians and military personnel www.mcs-global.org More coordinators needed!
