Food safety Legislation, which attracted public attention. April 20, the draft law on food safety published in full to the community and solicit opinions. NPC Standing Committee to promote scientific and democratic legislation of this important measure has caused strong repercussions in society. As at 3 p.m. on the on April 29, the NPC Standing Committee received the views of 4838. For food safety draft law, which the community is most concerned about the problem? To the country’s top legislature, the public made comments and suggestions which? NPC Standing Committee on these observations and recommendations in a timely manner the comb…… Health Products, Drinking water Law applicable to?Although the draft law on food safety, the scope of this Act made provision, but many people draft proposal should be further defined Food materials, Health food, New resources of food, functional fortified foods, genetically modified food, drinking water, Cooking oil, Beverage, wine, etc. applicable to this Act. Some people believe that the relevant provisions of the draft should first clearly define the meaning of food, and suggested that “food” should also include drinking water, food and water, edible oil, beverages, edible plants and animals etc. Some have suggested the draft law should define the difference between food and edible agricultural products, agricultural products in order to solve this Law and the relationship between quality and safety law. long outstanding regulatory issues Collected from the draft law on food safety advice to see the masses of the food safety regulatory system is most concerned about the views of relevant observations accounted for nearly one fifth of the total. To the opinions collected, the majority were opposed by many sectors of food production, distribution, food and beverage spending is monitored. Most people suggested that the draft law on food safety should be a department specifically for the food control subjects, and to clarify its regulatory responsibilities, powers and responsibilities to achieve a united, from the place of production, circulation and consumption monitoring system links the entire process. Many people think that regulation by the health department to implement more appropriate. strengthen the risk assessment of genetically modified foodsComments, the food safety risk monitoring and evaluation system will also be given due attention. It was suggested that countries should strengthen their related products, genetically modified foods food safety risk assessment, and establish regular information release system. Was suggested that food safety risk assessment experts, the Commission should explicitly include the nutritional, microbiological, medical and other experts. It was also suggested that there should potential risks of food danger zone and the delineation and distribution of the unknown, to guide the public on scientific and rational choice. For innovative food should be promptly reported by the department of food safety risk assessment of the organizational assessment. proposed unified food safety standards Some people think that the draft law on food safety, food safety standards should clearly define the concept, scope, clearly define the existing food safety standards and food hygiene standards and other relevant standards, or else lead to confusion in implementation. Some suggest that only in the food safety risk assessment, based on various foods for the development, revision of the national uniform food safety standards and food standards for test methods to effectively ensure the safety of food. They suggested that the draft clearly stipulates: Food safety standards and food standards inspection methods for the development of national unity, modified; can only be developed around the revised food hygiene business process specifications, or develop Local Specialty Foods Standards do not involve food safety indicators. Strengthening supervision of food additives Food safety draft law on food additives in the production and use of provisions made. Most suggested that the draft should be expressly prohibited in food production enterprises in the food to add any Preservative, Food flavors, food coloring and other harmful additives.

The cost factor is certainly an understandable reason given the current state of the world economies and everyone’s need to tighten up on their spending. But even this is really no excuse to be pumping the tons of toxic chemicals and “dead” food into you or your families’ bodies.

Nearly all books and documentaries that have come out in recent years showing how bad fast food is mostly focuses on it’s high fat/ high sodium content. Very few of them truly reveal the real dangers of consuming fast food and just why it is totally unfit for human consumption.

Hopefully this article will help you to truly begin to understand why it’s not just a “less healthy” food, but something so terrible, so disgusting, and so horrible that you are far better off eating nothing at all than to consume fast food. If most people truly knew what it is that they’re putting into their bodies when they go up to that drive through window and place their order, surely the vast majority would rarely if ever consume it again.

Certainly anyone who is interested in overcoming illness and disease and attaining higher levels of health and internal purity must vastly limit or completely eliminate their consumption of these so called foods.

So just what is in fast foods today and why is it really that bad for you? Come along as we cover some main reasons for such a strong stance against fast foods and just why they are to be avoided at all cost. Be warned that some of this information may be quite disturbing to some readers.

Fast Food Nation

In 2002, author Eric Schlosser, a correspondent for the Atlantic Herald, came out with a ground breaking book called “Fast Food Nation” which takes us through a sordid maze of deception, cover up, lies, fraud and both animal and human cruelty that has unfortunately become all too common in the meat packing industry today. This was even turned into a 2006 movie release of the same name.

If you only saw the movie, then you missed virtually all of the “meat and potatoes” of this story because the movie was but a pale shadow of the mind blowing information contained in the book.

The movie mostly focused on the plight of the immigrant laborers who work in the meat packing plants. These plants are the main suppliers of the meat, chicken and other foodstuffs sold in the fast food industry.

The book covers every aspect of the fast food industry. From the truly horrible and inhumane conditions of the animals themselves from birth till death, to the often slave like conditions of the plants where the mostly immigrant and poor workers toil in 12 hour shifts or longer each day and more.

Fast Food nation is a thoroughly well researched book that has won worldwide praise for its author Eric Shlosser. Eric was able to gain access to feed lots, slaughter houses and even the J.R. Simplot plant in Aberdeen, Idaho where millions upon millions of French fries are made on a daily basis. The majority of which are mostly destined for area McDonald`s restaurants.

The fast food industry came out in strong protest against his book saying that they don’t agree with his conclusions. At the same time when asked if there were any errors in the book the same industry said “no” that they could not find any errors in his facts or figures at all.

The Processing Line

Twenty years ago the standard number of cattle processed per hour in a typical meat packing plant was 175. The older meatpacking plants in Chicago slaughtered about 50 per hour. Today the workers at many plants are required to kill up to 400 cattle per hour. At the rate worker injuries are all too common as the workers stand close together in one spot for hours a day performing the same task over and over again. Mostly this involves swinging a large sharp knife over and over again to carve up the animal into smaller pieces for processing. Mistakes and injuries to other workers are common as they struggle to keep up with the fast pace of the line in constant fear of falling behind or being fired.

The pace of the line that these workers are forced to work at is a major cause of many serious injuries to workers and has even led to several deaths. How do these workers die exactly…well this is where the story gets downright grizzly. Many times these workers are near the meat grinders when some get limbs caught in them or simply fall into the larger machines completely. By the time the machine can be shut down, there is nothing of the worker left to recover.

That means that along with the meat from the cattle, there is at times, human meat mixed in with the animal meat itself. Fortunately it doesn’t occur all that often, but the author is surely not taking any chances on putting such meat into his body or that of his family and I strongly suggest that you don’t either. There are other things mixed into with the meat as well which we’ll cover shortly.

The speed of the cattle line not only producers a danger to the workers themselves, but it causes them to make a much higher percentage of mistakes in the cutting of the meat itself. What this means is that, because these workers are being forced to do the same motion up to 10,000 times per day, they can and do make mistakes and end up cutting the wrong part of the animals.

Instead of cutting the meat parts that are to be sold, they can end up hitting the bowels which often causes a “mixing” of the animals waste to be mixed in with the meat that is eventually sold to restaurants and the public. This is a main source of various E-coli outbreaks that we hear about on the news from time to time. How many more people get sick from such “food” but never report it?

Animal Cruelty

With the terrible and inhumane way in which the animals themselves are treated which causes the meat to lose any of it’s health benefits, coupled with the contamination of the meat itself during processing, you now have a situation where this meat is not only providing very little nutrition or bio-energy, but it can be quite dangerous and deadly.

“Every day in the United States, roughly 200,000 people are sickened by a food borne disease, 900 are hospitalized and fourteen die. According to the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), more than a quarter of the American population suffers a bout of food poisoning each year. Most of these cases are never reported to authorities or properly diagnosed” – Fast Food Nation, page 195

Not only are these animals often killed while they’re in poor health, as a recent investigative film by the human society showed that even animals that are too sick or weak to walk are being picked up by forklifts and led to the slaughter anyway. This is against current animal welfare policies but is rarely enforced due to a loophole in the laws.

Aside from the obvious reasons for animals to be sick and weak such as hormone injections and cramped feedlots which stresses animals out just as it does humans, there are other more stomach churning reasons for their ill health.

The animals are not only unhealthy due to how they’re treated in terms of actual abuse or crowded and stressed conditions, but what they’re being fed is absolutely disgusting a crime against nature itself. These cattle are ruminants, meaning that they’re designed to eat grass and perhaps some grain. They have four stomachs because they’re meant to eats things with high cellulose content.

So what is it that these animals are being fed that further contributes to their being in such ill health and overweight? Until 1997, about 75% of the cattle in the US were being fed livestock wastes, the rendered remains of dead sheep and cattle. They were also fed millions of dead pets from animal shelters. The FDA banned such practices after evidence from Great Britain suggested that this might be responsible for a widespread outbreak of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) also known as “mad cow disease”

However, current FDA regulations do allow dead pigs and horses to be turned into cattle feed, along with dead poultry too. They also allow the poultry to be fed to dead cattle. Other constituents of cattle feed include cattle blood, metal fragments and sawdust.

Is it any wonder then that these poor animals are sick and weak and some are unable to even walk to their own slaughter?

Many such animals go to the slaughter with their bodies wracked with tumors, viruses, infections and some reports indicate that a majority of them have cancer throughout their bodies. Meat packers are taught how to cut around the cancers and tumors to avoid infecting the meat itself. But this means that even the “uninfected” parts are so weakened of nutrients, oxygen, energy and life force that it is still unfit for human consumption.

Because of their low nutrient content, higher levels of diseased tissues, bacteria, weak and impure electromagnetic and life force energies along with little to no exercise and not being allowed to eat the grasses that they are designed to eat and other reasons constitute why these animals are unfit for human consumption and a horrible choice of food to be putting into your body.

The Chicken is No Better

If you think the chickens that are sold at fast food places are treated any better, then please take a look at this 48 minute video recently featured on a major health website that is available free at the authors website below.

What Color is the Food?

Aroma is not the only tweaking that goes into fast foods. The color of food also has a lot to do with it’s perception of flavor. This is by design because we know that color often indicates whether a food is ripe or rancid. In the early 1970′s an experiment was done where people were given an “oddly tinted” meal of steak and French fries that appeared normal under the

“Pure” event dust not lean falls, “dyeing steamed bread,” “beef paste”, “veterinary medicine bean sprouts come again. Frequent food safety accidents, overwhelming. What kind of food is safe? People ask the probes, and recently reported source of food safety standards “inside and outside the news of different”.What is foreign food safety standards too strict, or national standard is too wide, provides an opportunity for enterprise?

Safety standards “inside and outside has”? According to reports, the data from the Swedish study institution, said part of the brand production such as nestle baby food contains arsenic, lead poisoned heavy metals, such as unsafe. In Sweden, the product quantity of arsenic 1.7 microgram/kg will be seen as “contain carcinogenic heavy metal”, and our country health ministry released in 2010, two or three hundred micrograms of standard is “belong to safety range.” China’s center for disease control then bulletin, these brands in China products detected the heavy metal content such as arsenic, lead, all did not exceed China standards.

This isn’t peculiar. McDonald’s in 2010 in the U.S. was found chicken mallard containing two chemical composition, “inception” and methyl poly two “special butyl hydroquinone”, and McDonald’s China, says that in response to the two substances content are consistent with current China hygiene standards for use of food additives.

Clearly the same products abroad, and detect unqualified in domestic is usually “safe”. “Different” standards, and has always been the confusion of consumer food safety of one.

China agricultural university school of engineering in food science and nutrition associate professor lee then your reporters, this is true existence. For instance, in dairy and other food industries existed inspection standard, the standards are different, and the developed countries in other countries part index below.

For example, in raw milk per milliliter our standard provisions shall not exceed 200 million bacteria content, but this is a standard in the world aren’t recognized; Be like again, international standards of somatic “cow” test items, this is the important judge whether healthy cattle, and China has no standards and relevant regulations. “And multinational companies as long as satisfy multiple national local standard went throughout the monitoring indicators are not uniform, therefore, this kind of circumstance also is normal.” Lee then your said. State food and drug administration, said SangLiWei training center lecturer every food safety standards are different, but have one thing in common is China’s domestic current food safety standards set each value is not high. In this itself is not high food safety standards, domestic food production are not in accordance with standard to execute, and export food standards but most can do according to the exporter requirements.Data shows, years since China’s food exports all maintained in qualified 99.8 percent above, and domestic food in “years under the background of shake-up, percent of pass is only 90 percent or so. Although only nine percentage points, but the gap expose food safety standards “inside and outside the embarrassment of different”.

Safety standards produces just the bottom line The same arsenic levels, the conclusion are given two countries are totally different. Have unified standards?

According to expert introduction, “food safety law is promulgated after carrying out, China’s current food standards have 3 kinds, one is the national standard, 2 it is local standards, three is the enterprise standard. Among them, the enterprise standard have two kinds of cases, one kind is when product without gb and local standards, the enterprise must make food safety enterprise standards, as its organization production basis; Another kind is products already have national standards or local standards, the state shall encourage enterprises to formulate strict in “gb” or “landmark” food safety enterprise standards to severely product quality.”In fact, safety standards just produce basic line, some overseas enterprise will produce according to standards. The European Union is almost international recognized for food safety requirements of the most stringent region, China’s production of dairy products hard to enter the European Union and the United States, and standard strict market.” Lee then your said.

An inescapable fact is, frequent food safety accidents in China, often exposed behind food safety management system standard quality is not high, lag problem. The regulations for the implementation of standardization method specified: standard after carrying out, the formulation of standards department shall, according to the development of science and technology and economic construction need timely re-examination. Standard review cycles are usually not more than five years. But in China the standardization method in 1989, the situation has started to implement changes the revision work, standardization method in the recent ten years, now the new law is still not come.

It is undeniable that the present stage of development level adapt, standard also has a gradual improvement and improve the process. But, “some standard long-term ‘piaffe’, even twenty or thirty years changeless, not only give some fraud enterprise drill LouZi provides may, also affect the vital interests of the people and even national image.” Well-known lawyer QiuBaoChang said. National authorities also pointed, although our country has set a lot of food, food additives products standards or testing standards, but for some more sensitive, attention high standards work also cannot improve adapt to the need of supervisory work. Such as: our country allowed “agriculture residual” than the European Union and the United States amount to several times higher; Margarines, by exposure in China is harmful, but no mandatory limited standards… QiuBaoChang explained, our country were tens of thousands of a standard, when developing criteria is generally low. On the other hand, make a standard, need a lot of data collection and argumentation, cost is higher, and this subsidy is limited, many state spending is often corporate sponsors, one is the “update” slow, 2 it is blended with enterprise’s “will”, some enterprise became low standard beneficiaries. Correspondingly, developed countries are often the food standard “dynamic” update, the government supervision department, third-party research institutions and enterprises has good linkage mechanism between.How should the formulation of standards? According to introducing, in Japan, has a complete testing system according to their food and food imports of food safety, it also makes many Chinese manufacturers buyers. In the United States, production babies and infants dairy access enterprise less than 10 home, and Chinese baby formula milk powder enterprise up to 145 home.

“As far as I know, Japan only 100 kinds of food safety standards, and our country have thousands of different departments, and formulated the standard is’ fight ‘.” Lee said, some departments to your region, out of self-interest standards, mutual fight not rare, make law enforcement departments and enterprise disoriented.

2009 September to November, the National People’s Congress standing committee of the food safety act law-enforcement inspection group checked implementation of food safety standards, find domestic quantity, less time early, index coarse, some index lack of risk assessment basis, standard exists between the cross, repeat even contradictory.

Due to agriculture, health and quality inspection regulators from respective needs for food safety standards work on the same food, which usually leads to a different safety standards, the same test items have different requirements of limited value for the country, because the phenomenon are compulsive standard, food enterprise often disoriented. For example, dumplings with dumplings formulated by the ministry of health standards of hygiene standards, flour by national bureau, both are formulated national standards, but because the dumplings standard is higher, often happen “qualified flour bag not qualified jiaozi”.

China food standard system for defects, since in 2010, relevant departments have started a cleanup work. However, the standard system integration, and clean thoroughly revised based standards such as short-term work is difficult to complete.

“Since is food safety standards, can’t ‘different’ internal and external to the international standard, should emulate, possibly to strictly.” QiuBaoChang said, raise the standard, is the life and health of the people responsible for participation in the world, China is the need of economic division.

SangLiWei said, in addition to standard, food safety monitoring the biggest vulnerability is protectionism. Some food production enterprise is the local large taxpayer, when these enterprise a problem, even if regulators have the heart to tube, but likely will directly find problems enterprise higher level of leadership, cause regulators cannot really regulation in place. What is more, out of local protectionism, regulators will enterprise protected directly, does not undertake supervisory duties.

“China’s export food safety than domestic food safety coefficient is much higher. This is because export food management a bamboo pole tube exactly, from sales have been tube to the farm source, regulation strictly; on the other hand, the export enterprise also to produce strictly according to western standards.” Lee said, “so you again, sheet relies on a standard affirmation won’t solve the food safety problems, check 30 item, 50 of when is an end? Food problems most important are moral bottom line, abolish the department interests.”

About the

Food has grown to be a brand new American passion.

The best method to minimize hunger and therefore overeating is to pick foods and beverages that prevent hunger and avoid foods that cause hunger. I suggest picking foods based on the following three techniques that require only a food label: Food Label Tells Us Characteristics of Foods Producing Fullness:

1. Low Energy density2. High protein (> 10grams/portion)3. Low sugar (< 10 grams/portion)4. High fiber (> 2.5 g grams/portion)

1. Foods with Low Energy Density Produce Fullness Energy density (ED) is the quantity of energy or calories in food related to its weight (and its volume). It is usually presented as the calories per gram of foods. Foods with low energy density provide large portions with few calories–foods with a lot of water or air. Foods with high density have smaller portions containing more calories.

Foods with Low, Medium and High Energy Densities Energy Density(ED) = calories in food divided by weight in oz. or grams

Very Low ED foods: 0- 0.6 calories per gram include lettuce, tomatoes, strawberries, cantaloupe, apples, low fat milk, carrots, soups.

Low ED foods: 0.6 to 1.5 calories per gram include whole milk, grapes, bean, peas, bananas, cheerios, baked potato, ham, and tuna

Medium ED foods: 1.5 to 4.0 include rice, eggs, beef, fish, skim milk cheeses, air popped popcorn Eating foods with low ED permits eating larger portions which results in more fullness, satisfaction and fewer feelings of deprivation. Incorporating low ED foods like non-creamed based soups, fruits and vegetables into a meal reduces subsequent calorie consumption in that meal. Dr Barbara Rolls noted that the participants eating an appetizer before lunch– either a soup or a salad were much less hungry than those that did not eat the appetizer and ended up eating one third less food in the subsequent meal. Satiety is related to both the weight and the volume of food. Even the visual cues of seeing a large portion on one’s p

Tips on Picking Foods with the Lowest Energy Density:

Breads, cereals, pasta, riceSelect those with the highest fiber, such as whole wheat or brown rice. White breads are slightly higher. High fiber breakfast cereals are often the best. You need to watch the portions here.

Vegetables: Most vegetables are great, including green vegetables, tomatoes, green beans and squash. Starchy vegetables like potatoes, corn, peas, lentils are little higher. Fried vegetables like French fries (3.2) and onion rings (4.1) are among the worst choices.

Fruits: Almost all fruits are good; watch the canned or dried fruits. Watch out for fruit juices they have low energy densities, but lots of calories and sugar.

Foods with multiple ingredients: soups stand out as having some of the lowest energy densities, less than 1.0.

2. Some Food Groups Increase Fullness, Others Cause More Hunger

Some foods are better than others in producing fullness. Of all the food groups, proteins are the most filling, satisfying, and protective against hunger. Low-carb diets often succeed because of this. Foods high in protein digest slowly emptying from the stomach at 4 calories per minutes. Of all of the carbs, simple sugars offer the least fullness emptying from the stomach at 10 calories per minute. Less processed carbs such as whole wheat, brown rice and other whole grain products are processed slower and less tendency to produce hunger. Foods high in fiber are also more satisfying because they too are processed more slowly. The third food group-fat is different than the other two. Fat produces satiety because of its slow stomach emptying time of just 2 calories a minute. The problem with fat is the high calories of the foods and the fact that it takes a longer period of time for the satiety signal to reach the brain.

Foods High in Protein Produce Fullness Proteins are responsible for a long list and wide variety of essential functions in the body including the growth and maintenance of muscle, bones, cartilage, hair, skin, and nails. Proteins are also needed to make certain enzymes, hormones, and blood elements. The benefit of dietary protein is that it increases the feeling of fullness (satiety) when compared to equal amounts of carbohydrates and fats. The result is that one eats less calories from protein. More about the roles and need for proteins in the appendix. .Foods with Less than 10 Grams of Sugar Do Not Increase Hunger, Foods with Sugar More than 10 Grams Produce Hunger Sugars are rapidly absorbed by the stomach, turn into fat, and produce hunger. Avoid foods and beverages with more than 10 grams of sugar per portion. Most fruits, vegetables, and many whole-grain bread products, cereals, and even pasta can reduce hunger. The sugars in these foods are surrounded or encased in fibers that dissolve slowly in the stomach, resulting in a much slower release of sugar into the bloodstream. When sugar is released slowly–over hours instead of in seconds–the body is able to utilize the sugar for metabolism and activities. Foods High in Fiber Promote Satiety

A high-fiber food has 5 grams or more of fiber per serving and a good source of fiber is one that provides 2.5 to 4.9 grams per serving.

Fibers, the parts of plants that our bodies cannot digest, will promote fullness and feelings of satisfaction. The suggested fiber intake is 25 grams per day for adults. Some researchers suggest that increasing fiber actually absorbs calories from our foods. Children and teens need fiber just as much as adults. Foods with fiber are beneficial because they’re filling and, therefore, discourage overeating — even though fiber itself adds no calories. The natural tendency is for children to like sweet, salty and sugary foods and avoid eating fiber rich fresh fruits and vegetables. Fiber, the indigestible portion of plant food is not found in dairy or meat. Fiber comes in two forms soluble and insoluble –both important and with different functions. Soluble fiber slows down the absorption of sugar from the stomach so that there are fewer spikes in sugar and insulin. This reduces hunger and episodes of low blood sugar. Soluble fiber also helps to remove cholesterol and fats in the blood. Insoluble fiber is important for maintaining bowel regularity and preventing constipation.
