 It reveals the deadly truth about hydrogenated oils. Inside, you'll learn:
The disturbing truth of how hydrogenated oils cause cancer, birth defects, heart disease, diabetes, liver disease and much more.
The inside story of corruption, and how Big Business has conspired with our government to keep this deadly ingredient 100% legal to use in the human food supply.
How hydrogenated oils alter the structure and flexibility of cell membranes throughout your body, causing cell-by-cell disintegration of your health. |
| What ingredient am I talking about? hydrogenated oils, of course. For decades, food companies (and even our own government regulators) have lied to use about hydrogenated oils, telling us this disease-causing substance was not merely safe, but actually better for your health than other sources of fat like butter. But today, we know this was nothing more than a global deception, a hijacking of science by the food manufacturers in a blatant attempt to get people to buy their high-profit products like margarine, shortening and snack crackers. |

 Hydrogenated oils (an unsaturated oil that has been made into a saturated fat) should be avoided for cardiovascular health. hydrogenated oil raises LDL, lowers the protective effects of HDL, and can in fact increase the incidence of heart disease. Foods such as margarine, cakes, cookies, candies, and doughnuts often contain partially or totally hydrogenated oils. This is also true of many oils sold in supermarkets; in order to prolong their shelf life, hydrogenated fats are used in many so-called cooking oils. |

 I would buy vitamin E soft-gel products that have hydrogenated soybean oil as filler, so that I could be absolutely sure that this study would come out showing an increase of heart attacks. Then, I could write a headline that says, "Vitamin E Kills People!"
Following that study, if I were associated with the right school or university or the right medical group, I could send out a press release to all the newspapers around the country or around the world and they would blindly print that headline. People would be all over TV and radio talking about how vitamin E kills you. |
| I just choose a soft gel container with hydrogenated oils as the toxic filler ingredients because I, as an evil researcher, know that these journalists are not going to ask questions. No one's going to look at this study and see what the other filler ingredients were. No one's going to do anything other than reprint whatever I fax them. Why? Because I'm associated with a medical school or a university, that's why. That's how it works out there. That's the real world of nutritional supplements "research. |
| No wonder you feel worse; you're just eating hydrogenated oils. You're actually taking them as a supplement. What a foolish thing to do, but people do it every single day in this country.
Lawmakers deserve a lot of blame and shame for allowing this to go on, in my view. The fact that food manufacturers and vitamin supplement manufacturers can put highly toxic, death-promoting, disease-causing ingredients into your foods, products and supplements and sell them to you without warning labels is absolutely unconscionable. It's near criminal that they allow this to happen. |

 Cooked in partially hydrogenated vegetable oils (may contain partially hydrogenated soybean oil and/or partially hydrogenated corn oil and/or partially hydrogenated canola oil and/or cottonseed oil and/or corn oil). TBHQ and citric acid added to help preserve freshness. Dimethylpolysiloxane added as an anti-foaming agent.6
Because consumers are often left in the dark, resulting in potential untoward consequences, the court system provides a way to shine a light on hidden corporate practices while compensating victims. |

 It is my hope that companies that continue using hydrogenated oils will ultimately be held legally and financially responsible for the harm their products are causing consumers.
I believe there is justification for a global class action lawsuit against food companies that insist on using this ingredient even after scientific proof leaves no doubt that it causes harm, and even death, when consumed over a long period of time. This is not simply a question of consumer choice, as the food industry attempts to claim. |
| For decades, food manufacturers have known about the dangers to the health of consumers caused by hydrogenated oils, and yet, until recently, food manufacturers were able to claim innocence by saying that their ingredient was not really proven to be dangerous, or that it is perfectly legal to use. |

 Margarines are made with hydrogenated oils as well. Unless they say, "no hydrogenated oils" right on the label, they contain it. Vegetable shortening, by the way, is pure hydrogenated oil. It is probably one of the single most toxic grocery products you can put in your body. And yet people are out there buying vegetable shortening by the bucket loads and baking cookies with it -- something I find absolutely appalling.
By far, the most powerful thing you can do to restore healthy cholesterol levels is to stop eating hydrogenated oils. |

| Using hydrogenated oils in foods is a strategy used by manufacturing companies to enhance the taste of their foods, add calories to their foods and extend the shelf life and shelf stability of those foods. This all adds up to higher profits for food companies. The real costs of using this ingredient, however, are shifted to consumers (a process called externalizing costs). |
| Except in this case, there's no disease named, but let's be honest: Eating hydrogenated oil promotes cancer, birth defects, cardiovascular disease and many other diseases that ultimately kill people. Even if it doesn't kill a particular person, it can put them on prescription drugs for the rest of their life. It is my hope that consumers will now recognize the dangers of these oils and boycott all food companies that continue to use them.
Food companies that knowingly put this poison into foods should be heavily fined. |
| You will discover an impressive collection of disease-promoting chemicals and substances listed right on the label: hydrogenated oils, sodium nitrite, monosodium glutamate, sugar, artificial chemical sweeteners, artificial colors, homogenized fats and many more. It's like walking into a chemical factory... but it's triple coupon day! |
| It should never be allowed in the food supply, and companies that use the ingredient should have their inventory confiscated by the Food and Drug Administration, which occasionally confiscates so-called "dangerous herbs" when they post a threat to public safety, but never confiscates dangerous foods due to their hydrogenated oil content. On this issue, the FDA routinely caves to the pressures from private industry and has taken absolutely no action to ban this toxic ingredient, despite the undeniable evidence of its harm. |

| LOOK FOR HYDROGENATED'
To protect yourself from unknowingly consuming too many trans fats, Heller suggests,
"If you see a food with 0 trans fat, check the ingredient list. Look for the words, 'partially hydro-genated.' If you see partially hydrogenated, that means the product contains some trans fats."
The FDA adds that products that have shortening or hydrogenated oils in their ingredient lists also contain some trans fats, and if they appear at the beginning of the ingredient list, the product contains more trans fats than if they are further down on the list. |

| Don't you deserve healthy supplements, rather than supplements packaged with hydrogenated oils and other poisons that are legalized by our system of corrupt government and private industry? Shouldn't you deserve the very best? I think so. Get the best and put that in your body. Be healthy. Thanks for reading. This is Mike Adams, the Health Ranger, for Truth Publishing. |
| Today, anyone who follows nutrition knows that hydrogenated oils are extremely toxic. We know that, long-term, they will lead to cardiovascular disease and heart attacks. They can even encourage strokes. We know that they cause harm, sometimes irreparable, to the nervous system. We know that they interfere with the absorption of the essential fatty acids you need to maintain healthy cells, a healthy nervous system, healthy blood sugar regulation and many other functions. |
| It could be soybean oil, hydrogenated oils or some other form of filler. It could be something that's actually dangerous to your health, so you'd better read the ingredients labels on those vitamins, minerals and supplements, in addition to reading the ingredients labels on foods, as I've always recommended. Watch out! Just because you buy something that looks good on the label – something that claims to have flax oil, salmon oil or vitamin B in it – it doesn't mean it's actually good for you. |

Ever wonder why Greeks seem so happy and mil of life?
Tempting though it may be to attribute robust good health to any one factor, the truth is that it's always a combination of things. Unlike lab rats and college sophomores, "free-living" humans always do a bunch of things together, making "cause and effect" statements much more difficult. |

 Refused to ban a poisonous artificial fat from the food supply (hydrogenated oils) for decades, even though the World Health Organization urged member nations to outlaw the substance in 1978. hydrogenated oils continue to harm infants, children, and adults today.
It is clearly time to reform not merely the FDA, but the entire medical industry. Drug companies are running amok, and this new Consumer Reports survey reveals that consumers are finally fed up with it.

 To be safe, stay away from foods like chips, crackers, and packaged baked goods, all of which are likely to contain some amount of hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated vegetable oils—trans fats.
Eggs contain omega-3 fatty acids as well. They've been demonized because their yolks are high in cholesterol, but studies show that eating an egg or two a day won't raise your cholesterol counts. You can buy eggs from organically raised chickens that have eaten feed enriched with the omega-3 fat docosahexanoic acid (DHA) to boost your omega-3 intake by about 200 mg per egg. |
| Avoid hydrogenated and partially hydrogenated fats, and reduce your intake of saturated fats from meat, dairy products, and junk food.
• Choose low-GI/GL complex carbohydrates such as whole grains, vegetables, and fruits, and avoid sugar and refined foods.
• Eat fish three times a week, or take fish oil supplements.
• Use cold-pressed seed oils in salad dressings.
• Drink at least two quarts (64 ounces) of water a day, either pure or in diluted juices, and herbal or fruit teas.
• Minimize your intake of tea, coffee, and alcohol. |
