Irish pork meat contaminated with dioxins The sale of a consignment of Irish food products derived from processing of pork meat has been blocked because of a contamination probably caused by oil containing dioxin that was added to the feed for the animals. Appears to have been found in some foods a "presence of dioxin from 80 to 200 times" the upper limits of law, but even if has been activated the early warning food security the real risk must be really quite low, or should in theory eat these contaminated products for forty years.. Most of the production withdrawn from the market was distributed in England and Italy is on the list of countries which received a small quota of these foods. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Dec 08, 2008 ![]() Varied safety food Try to vary as much as possible the nutrition is one way to limit toxic contaminants in the production chain, may sometimes be useful supplement your diet with foods prepared by hand from ingredients undoubtedly genuine, to touch and smell to analyze the aromas and then see how a food takes consistency and saving on the same time the pocket, since the food industry especially for goods very cheap sometimes it seems tends to recycle expired or unsold aliments (it's happened with eggs, cheese and other animal products). Before to touch any food should be washing our hands and then baked at high temperature the meats for avoid the risk of contamination with salmonella.., moreover is appropriate to consider that some "foreign chemical" can contaminate the food chain and accumulate in the body. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Oct 28, 2008 n°: 812 Food adulterated and security The incident of the adulterated milk happened in China and has resulted in the compromise of vital functions in three children and over 1300 hospitalized in serious condition seems we are extending to other major countries (Bangladesh, Yemen, Myanmar, Burundi, Gabon) where they tripped the controls on the product from the first analyses carried out would be added melamine, a substance used to increase the protein content of the milk perhaps watered down. To note also shifting the attention to the field of the food safety in Europe and more specifically on the use of pesticides for crops, which would increase the permitted level of pesticides in agriculture with consequences on the immune system and hormonal especially in children, and the risk that potentially harmful substances are added if present on a massive scale in a not sufficiently varied and rich liquids nutrition. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Sep 18, 2008 n°: 778 Expensive food and to control In Italy are estimated that the vegetables also suffer a rise of 200% in transition from field to the shop, in a chain that sees particularly disadvantaged farmers against other passages and seems especially one with wholesale markets, but at the end the most penalized are the consumers forced to save on having healthy fruit and vegetables of season. In France is taking a monitoring program on the proper conservation of foods (deadlines, temperature in refrigerators, general hygiene..) in restaurants and food markets, all with a "summer plan" that last year seems to have been quite effective. Worth noting some studies that show a possible interference between drink grapefruit juice or other (yet to be verified for orange and apple) with some medicines, while the European Union denounces the abuse of salutary slogans for products without a real effect (type slimming extracts etc.). e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Aug 26, 2008 n°: 759 Dough of cheese and fast snacks A few years ago had cause a sensation in Italy the story of the so-called "egg product" seems derived from industrial rotten eggs recovered with chemicals and used for many types of cakes, now albeit with limited scope think the story is repeated with dough cheese melted without too many scruples from expired products (transported with prohibitive hygienic conditions or rot) and after appropriate treatments of cooking, filtering, packaging.. put back on the market for example as subtle slice, stracchino or cheese grating. Regarding the new little healthy styles is reported the spread of the habit of a quick snack for lunch, in practice reduced to a sandwich or an ice cream and salad for the more attentive to the health, but that they will not guarantee a sufficient nutritional balance, with the risk of introducing too many calories in the dinner and the kids end up to follow these stressful rhythms that often lead to the obesity. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jul 05, 2008 n°: 725 Healthy wine if little and good After the mozzarella of buffalo now is discussed on the adulterations of an other extraordinary precious Italian production as it can be that one of the quality wine coming from valuable grapes selected that in some cases it would seem turned out a few lengthened with other types of grapes or water and sugar, but the news more alarming is that one regards of the lower-middle cost "wine" produced also with uses of fertilizers and several acids, sure little healthy. Drink modest wine amount during the meal in kind would have to contribute to supply goddesses above all benefits anti-oxidants on the credit side organism (that red one), but in the case of obese individuals will have to calculate that every gram of alcohol develops approximately seven kcal; in fact, thanks to the alcoholic fermentation the simple sugars presents in the grape are transformed losing carbon dioxide in alcohol molecules, and this partial demolition is rendered possible from microbes that they produce enzymes able to provoke this useful "chemical decomposition". e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Apr 05, 2008 n°: 657 Polluted Parkinson Some studies have found a correlation between the Parkinson disease and pesticides, in particular insecticides and herbicides with consequent danger for who it ingests the polluting of being hit from the disease advanced 1.6 times to who is not exposed to this type of chemical compounds. It is estimated that the subjects hit from the Parkinson disease in Europe are now approximately a 1.200.000, but they would be in continuous increase and they could half be hit also a million and half of individuals in the turn of four years. Although one does not know which still well are the causes of the disease, seems that the pesticides (to times uses also in the garden domestic) provoke in the time a loss of neurons that control the fluidity of the muscular movements thanks to the transmission of neurochemicals signals; to notice that also subject relatively young they could be hit from this debilitating disease that nearly sure has in part one genetic cause. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 31, 2008 n°: 652 Unblocked mozzarella and pollution Continues the controls on the pollution from diossin on the mozzarella of "bufala Campana DOP", after that South Korea had blocked the imports and other great orients nations seems are intentioned to adopt the same provision, but from the analyses carried out in Italy would seem that only a limited number of champions has of the slightly advanced levels to the law limits and some breedings contaminate had been already characterize. The diossin that is formed from organic policlorured compounds many toxics potentially is insoluble and stable in the water; moreover, it resists to the heat and can contaminate generally fat feeds, milk and derives (often for cause of fires do not control of plastics). To signal also that by now they exist given that compared the levels of pollution with the probability of being hit from tumorals diseases and other pathologies (fertility decrease, allergies..) often provoked from the contamination of the water-bearing stratums with residual of the industrial and agricultural workings (pesticides, residual of medicines, heavy metals..) - Lately the mozzarella hs been unblocked (28/03), but some countries requires further controls. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Mar 26, 2008 n°: 647 Good and less good water In Italy the quality of the water of "aqueduct or of tap" is generally rather good and this concurs to save on the expensive and polluting plastic water bottles, than for being they paradoxically need in the working to leave from the oil just of a great water amount, resource that in all the planet is becoming more and more precious and in some case source of quarrels between populations, without to consider the pollution that derives from the difficult getting over of "mountains" of several plastic (bottles, bags.). Little lucky people as far as the natural sources to how much seem are the Chinese people for cause of the often uncontrolled process of industrialization; in fact, it would seem that a percentage higher to the 40% of the drinkable water in the rural areas is unhealthy and can cause intestinal pathologies, and the pollution risks to contaminate great part of the water resources (as of the other hand some denounce are happening also in India). e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Feb 19, 2008 n°: 621 Aliments coming from clonation In America seems will be possible to consume meat and milk coming from cloned animals, opening new interrogatives on the security of the aliments fruit of the "biotechnological" experimentation; in fact, the famous sheep (Dolly) cloned from Ian Whilmut in 1997 seems has suffered from varied pathologies and is deceased prematurely, a lot that the new discipline of the "Bioethics" is just taken care to examine the consequences from the ethical point of view of the processes legacies to the clonation. In the meantime the technology has completed of the progresses and the techniques have been refined even if at least in Italy seems lack studies in the long term regard to the complete tranquillity in the consumption of these aliments, without to consider that as far as the meat even if coming from "natural" breedings by now it places sustenance climatic problems not indifferent. e-mail: info@salutary.eu Tel: +39 338 1809310 Date: Jan 16, 2008 n°: 594 Aliments and security * The author doesn't assume some kind of responsibility for the bad use of the articles councils (all rights are reserved) |
