🍔 Additives, Preservatives & Colors 🍔
Additives & MSG
🍬 Additives are used to stimulate flavor.
🧂 Additives such as MSG enter the brain and cause hyperactivity and death of cells.
🔖 Companies get around labelling foods as containing MSG by labelling it as 'yeast extract' and 'natural flavors'.
Preservatives
🍞 Preservatives are used to slow down spoilage by killing bacteria.
🥫 Preservatives can also be harmful to humans.
🍋 Preservatives like citric acid are harsh on the stomach.
🧂 Salt is dehydrating.
Artificial Colors
🍭 Artificial colors can cause cancer and neurological problems.
🍇 Natural coloring agents are much safer alternatives.
What You Can Do
🥗 Choose fresh, whole foods and avoid processed foods with additives and preservatives.
🍎 Opt for natural colorings in your food, such as beet juice or turmeric for a healthier alternative.
🥒 Read food labels carefully and avoid foods with long lists of artificial ingredients.
