8 Foods Made in China You Should No Longer Eat

 

China is the world’s leading exporter of food products. The country uses innovative methods and technologies to get these products to global markets as quickly and cost-effectively as possible. Not surprisingly, many foods suffer from this. Here is a list of eight Chinese foods that contain dangerous substances that we should avoid.

1 – SOY SAUCE
The World Health Organization has announced that this product is classified as carcinogenic. Soy sauce contains 4-methylimidazole (carcinogenic in mice and rats).

2 – GINGER

A 2013 study found that the pesticide Aldicarb, which is only approved for use on cotton, peanuts, roses and sweet potatoes, was also used on ginger. Farmers applied it three to six times the recommended level.
3 – INDUSTRIAL SALT
Industrial salt is unfit for human consumption, but industrial salt has been sold as table salt for 13 years! Industrial salt can cause mental and physical problems, hypothyroidism and reproductive system disorders.

4 – MUSHROOMS
Chlorinating agents, anhydrous calcium chloride, sodium sulfite and other dangerous preservatives are used in mushroom spraying.

5 – TILAPIA FISH

Tilapia is a common farmed fish in China. These fish are some of the worst, most poisonous and most unhealthy fish you can come across. A tilapia eats everything, comparable to a cleaner fish, and the fish farm is a small pool of water with waste where the fish live. This is one of the worst fish purchases you can make, and it is well known that seafood producers in China do not even let their children eat the seafood they produce, which should raise alarm bells. 80% of Tilapia comes from China.
6 – SHRIMP
To ensure the survival of the shrimp, farmers used unauthorized antibiotics and chemicals. 30 samples of shrimp purchased in China were sent to a laboratory at the Institute for Environment and Human Health at Texas Tech University. Results: Antibiotics (enrofloxacin, chloramphenicol and nitrofuranzone) that are banned in the US and other countries due to their carcinogenic effects were used in shrimp farming. 7 – APPLE JUICE

In 2011, Dr. Mehmet Oz reported that apple juice from China contained very high levels of arsenic. Another study published by Consumer Reports magazine found that 10% of apple juices tested exceeded the arsenic levels required by standards. The arsenic found in the products was not organic; instead, it was toxic and dangerous.
8 – CHINESE GARLIC
Inspectors have also found contaminated garlic from China. Chinese garlic is heavily sprayed with chemicals, and this garlic leaves an unpleasant aftertaste, that of a chemical mixture.
