Food Forensics: The Hidden Toxins Lurking in Your Food and How You Can Avoid Them for Lifelong Health

A good resource, and very interesting. I haven't read the entire book yet, just certain sections. But I have glanced through most of it and it looks to be a good resource for information on toxic substances, and the specific foods, vitamins and supplements they are used on and in, and how they adversely affect our bodies. It also exposes supplement manufacturers who lie about the effectiveness and healthfulness of their products. I am impressed that Mike Adams (The Health Ranger) did this research and put together the laboratory necessary for testing off-the-shelf supplements and foods (if "food" is what you want to call much of it). I truly hope this book is a huge best seller, as was Kevin Trudeau's "NATURAL CURES They Don't Want You to Know About," which I also highly recommend reading. If it is a huge best seller, Mike Adams may be able to recoup some of the money he has spent on the state-of-the-art laboratory and equipment in order to write this book. I’m confident it will be as instrumental in helping people with their health challenges as was Trudeau’s “Natural Cures” book. If it weren't for Trudeau's book, I would still be a stupid idiot believing in my government, and that it was doing the job of helping to protect my health from unscrupulous corporate entities. Kevin Trudeau was a life saver for me, because before reading his book, I was beginning to develop debilitating, chronic illness from the foods, liquids and substances I put on and in my body, which included showering in unfiltered water and using soaps made from man-made chemicals. I did only one thing Trudeau suggested in his book, and that was to be aware what I was putting in and on my body. He suggested I stop eating canned, boxed, and prepared foods, including artificial sweeteners and replaced them with organic and whole foods as well as drinking and bathing in purified water. Within a matter of weeks, I was free of pain in my shoulder and hip and was no longer lethargic and too tired to do anything. In fact, I had more energy than I knew what to do with. I remember also that for many years, I had no initiative to learn anything, and I now know that was caused from artificial sweeteners. That was 10-15 years ago and from that time until now, I have suffered NO pain or lethargy, or any other debilitating diseases, like arthritis, fibromyalgia, or the like, that so many people my age, and even younger, suffer from. I learned from Kevin Trudeau that so much of the food and meats sold in the supermarkets are poisoning and debilitating for us. Thanks to the primarily whole foods, organic meats, fruits and vegetables that I consume, I am a healthy, energetic, pain-free and young-looking 65 year-old woman. That seems pretty old, even to me, and I hardly can believe it’s true. I know most people are shocked when I tell them. I believe this book, “Food Forensics,” will go a long way to further our knowledge about what is sickening us and how to prevent it.

I have wanted this book for a long time, and now wish I had bought it years ago when it was first published. Mike Adams has done extensive research with his ISO-accredited food laboratory using ICP-MS analyses. In this book are his finding.This book is an in-depth discussion of Mr. Adams findings, and in part 3 of the book are 70 pages of charts that show the quantity of heavy metals in hundreds of common foods as well as menu items in common fast food restaurants. His work is nothing short of impressive, and even that is an understatement. Part 1 of the book is "Everything You Need to Know about Toxic Elements", and believe me after reading this section it will give you an entirely different mindset with regard to food. This author discusses adverse health effects of the heavy metals and also discusses chelation and how to avoid or remove some of the heavy metals. Mike Adams also has a section of artificial colors, chemical preservatives, food alteration, animal feed contaminants and more. The author then include a guide to natural detoxification in Part 2 of the book.If you really care about your body and really want to know what's in the foods in grocery stores and restaurants, buy this book! It will change your mindset about the food you eat.

It's a great gift idea for anyone willing to look into what's really being put into our foods! I have one and have shard your Amazon site to another who is dealing with Diabetes but is hesitant to believe that our food source is all that bad! Well worth the buy!

If you ever wondered just how toxic our environment is and how it affects us at a basic level of health, this is a must read. After reading it, I can understand why Big Food & others who profit from the poor health of people world wide don’t want you to read this book. I also understand why the attacks on the author and his reputation are as hot as they are. If the truth of what he speaks in regard to all the toxic elements to be found in our environment and it’s impact on our food supply is to continue unchecked, we are truly in for much more than a simple discomfort to our daily living. It leaves us open to our own biological self destruction gradually over time. This book wants us to take heed of where we are and in what direction we should go if we want to avoid falling prey to those toxic elements that surround us daily.

Food Forensics is an encyclopedic display of how private and official enterprises can be so easily corrupted and exploited concurrent with environmental and public health degradation.Perhaps apocalyptic best describes humanity's future as we wade through our daily dishes of vegetables, meats, fruits and farmed fish that typically also may include inherent measurable levels of arsenic, lead, mercury, aluminum, pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, drugs, hormones, and pathogens, many of which could have been courtesy of the feedlots where cattle, swine and poultry farms punctuate incremental filth and diseased food sources.The most enlightening segments of the author's book may be found on the fewest pages where complicit private and government conspirators participate in deliberate deceptions as profits, bribes and greed expose the politics of commerce. Some of the names include the U.S.D.A., the F.D.A. The National Dairy Council, The American Dental Association,The Environmental Protection Agency....Author Mike Adams exposes himself as a masterful writer, a relentless truth seeker, and one of the too few sentinels the public needs as societies become ever more challenging.

Detailed expose of the contaminants in our food supply.

Excelente leitura, vale a pena! Todos deveriam ler, todos deveriam melhorar a qualidade dos produtos consumidos, buscando uma linha mais orgânica e funcional.

Mike Adams, aka The Health Ranger, has the equipment and the know how to identify the contaminants in your food. Now, how many times have you been told to buy organic whenever you can to avoid pesticides and herbicides? Mike will introduce you to the heavy metals that are in even your organic foods, and in the supplements we buy. He does help you to avoid them too. The book is written by an American and I have not tried yet to establish if all of it applies equally to the EU; I am sure however that the level of dishonesty is equal, and I look forward to the day when enough of us come together to demand that high standards exist and that they are adhered to.

Awesome work Mike

Mike Adams does not pull his punches...no surprise there! This book will shock you. All that remains is whether you end up making drastic changes to your dietary habits or stick your head in the sand.....It is very easy to read, despite the scientific references. I even checked out his data from time to time. The Health Ranger has offered those who care what they eat (and what is routinely sold in shops), the opportunity to take charge of their own health, and contribute to good in the world.A must-have for the conscious adult-human....that rare creature is bound to be about somewhere...!
