Big PHARMA wants us to eat their poison so they can sell us more poisonous PHARMAceuticals. It is very short sighted. Dead people make poor consumers.

There are many insidious products. I have stopped buying any product with corn, soy, canola, sunflower and cottonseed; unless it is non-GMO or organically grown. Even dried beans and wheat are sprayed with RoundUp to dry them for threshing. Potato fields are sprayed with herbicides (phyto-pharmakeia, in Greek) to make the plants die back before the harvesting of the tubers.

Another key word in any ingredients list to avoid, is "fragrance". Fragrance ingredients are protected under Trade Secret laws and contain many hazardous chemicals that do not have to be disclosed. They are not government regulated and are linked to birth defects, cancers and hormone disruption.
Don't make fear based decisions.
