-(Natural News) The dangers of endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDC) found in plenty of everyday products like plastic, perfume, and even some foods are not something a lot of people are aware of. These chemicals share similar structures with natural hormones like estrogen and androgen. This factor allows them to interfere with reproduction, development, and immune system […]

-(Natural News) More than 96 percent of all animals killed in the United States are used for food. Most of those animals are shot up with hormones and antibiotics while suffering from consuming only genetically modified “feed.” The meat, egg and dairy industries are infested with antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genetically modified virus strains that have […]

-(Natural News) The amount of livestock in the U.S. has spiked in recent years, yet the number of farms has gotten smaller. In 2015, only four companies were responsible for 85 percent of the country’s beef-packing industry.

Even infant formula is considered to be […]

-(Natural News) People think that parasites are only a concern if you eat raw meat, but that’s only the tip of the “big worm.” Parasites are organisms that live on or inside other organisms and multiply, while depending on the host for survival, and that’s why parasites rarely kill the host. Yet, you’re not “off […]

-(Natural News) The majority of “farm” animals in America are not raised in pastures, wandering around out in the sunshine and fresh air, as the meat and dairy industries hope all the carnivores (and vegetarians) would believe. Even most fish harvested for mass consumption are not “wild caught,” but rather bred in crowded lakes or […]

-(Natural News) The meat and poultry industry processes about 9 billion chickens per year, the bulk of which contain hormones, antibiotics and dangerous bacteria that’s bred and spread in confined animal feeding operations (CAFOs).

-(Natural News) Start double-thinking that pulled pork barbecue sandwich, that BLT, and that slow-cooked ham.
