Thanks to irrational hysteria during the '60s and '70s, most Americans now have a strong phobia of all things radioactive.
Irradiated food is EEEEEEeeeeeeeevvvviiiiiillllllllll!
Ah, I see that it’s a capsule that you take like a food supplement. Where’s it made? A friend of mine’s brother took something that was made in India and it almost killed him.
The problem is all of those antibiotics and hormones enter your system when you eat them , I believe leading to earlier puberty for girls and bugs that are resistant to the antibiotics.
The FDA has done little to protect us here in this country from this, preferring to look the other way.
Tyson has announced they are going to offer an antibiotic free line of chicken because people seem to want it.
But most Americans are too dumb to realize the risk of having chicken nuggets or that roast Sunday chicken so they will probably stick with the regular chicken raised on the crap.
The only way you can know what you are getting is to buy certified organic beef and chicken at the higher price.
However that does not totally protect your family because the way bugs become immune to the antibiotics is frequent exposure to it but not enough to kill them off. Those that remain are immune to the drugs.
That is where the strain of TB came from that that lawyer had. Someone did not finish their round of treatment and then shared air space with other people.
This is not a China problem, but it is my guess they do it too and are less cautious than our farmers

Ever heard of aflatoxin?
It was an awful way to die.
