I have long maintained and often stated that one of the major challenges to overcome when working to maintain our health is that we are being poisoned and malnourished.
I saw a social media post that I thought worth sharing with you:

Ever wonder why you can eat bread, pasta, and cheese every day in Europe — and still feel better than you do in America?
It’s not about eating less.
It’s about eating food that isn’t poisoned.
Here are 11 American foods banned in other countries:
1. Bread (made with Azodicarbonamide)
You eat bread in Europe — no problem.
You eat it in the U.S. — and feel bloated, foggy, off.
Made with azodicarbonamide — a chemical also used in yoga mats
Linked to asthma, hormone disruption, and cancer.
Banned in 30+ countries for a reason.
It’s not the bread. it’s what’s baked into it.
2. Tap Water (Fluoride & Chlorine)
You drink it to hydrate. They add it to medicate.
The U.S. adds fluoride to drinking water to “prevent cavities”
Linked to thyroid issues, lower IQ in children, and developmental toxicity
Banned in 10+ countries…
When clean water needs a chemical justification, it stops being clean.
3. Milk (rBGH / rBST hormones)
What’s in the glass isn’t what came from the cow.
American cows are pumped with synthetic hormones to boost milk production
Linked to cancer, hormone disruption, and antibiotic resistance
Banned in 25+ countries — for a reason.
America? Served it in school cafeterias.
4. Chicken (Chlorine-Washed)
Raised in filth. Rinsed in chemicals. Served for dinner.
Washed in chlorine to kill bacteria from factory farming
Covers up contamination — doesn’t prevent it
Banned in 20+ countries, including the UK, Germany, and Spain.
Other countries cleaned up their farms. America just bleached the meat.
5. American Apples (Diphenylamine)
They look perfect — for months.
Coated in DPA to prevent browning during long-term storage
Breaks down into cancer-linked compounds over time
Banned in 20+ countries.
‘Fresh’ isn’t supposed to last a year…
6. Cereals (BHT & BHA)
That nostalgic bowl of cereal? Preserved with chemicals banned around the world.
BHT & BHA are preservatives linked to cancer and hormone disruption
Still found in cereals, chips, and snack mixes across the U.S.
In 25 countries, this isn’t breakfast — it’s a warning label.
7. Skittles (Artificial Dyes)
Taste the rainbow… of petroleum-based chemicals.
Red 40, Yellow 5 & 6 linked to hyperactivity, allergic reactions, possible cancer
Banned or replaced with natural dyes in many countries
Even Switzerland — world-famous for candy— banned them.
America? Still feeding them to kids by the bag.
8. US Pork (Ractopamine)
Lean, cheap, and drugged to the limit.
Ractopamine is a growth drug fed to pigs to build muscle fast
Linked to heart issues, hyperactivity, and animal aggression
Its BANNED in more countries than it’s allowed in…
9. Mountain Dew (Brominated Vegetable Oil)
This one literally contains a flame retardant.
BVO is used to stabilize citrus flavor
Linked to memory loss, hormone disruption, and fertility issues
Banned in over 100 countries. That should tell you enough.
10. Pre-Packaged Ground Beef (Ammonia-Treated)
Ground beef — minus the beef, plus the chemical bath.
Made from leftover scraps, treated with ammonia gas to kill bacteria
Labeled “lean finely textured beef” — better known as pink slime
Banned where food safety comes first. Served where profit does.
11. American Cheese (Food Dyes & Emulsifiers)
Engineered to melt. Colored to glow. Marketed as cheese.
Colored with petroleum-based dyes like Yellow 6
Emulsifiers linked to kidney issues and chronic inflammation
Banned in Norway, Australia, and Austria.
Real cheese doesn’t glow in the dark.
