After years of sweeping the issue under the rug and hoping no one would notice, the FDA has now finally admitted that chicken meat sold in the USA contains arsenic, a cancer-causing toxic chemical that's fatal in high doses. But the real story is where this arsenic comes from:It's added to the chicken feed on purpose!
Even worse, the FDA says its own research shows that the arsenic added to the chicken feed ends up in the chicken meat where it is consumed by humans. So for the last sixty years, American consumers who eat conventional chicken have been swallowing arsenic, a known cancer-causing chemical

Whoope!

Hate to tell you, but many plants also contain trace amounts of arsenic. It's no big deal, the body excretes it.

I would remind people that world wide life expectancies are higher than they ave ever been in history. Of course, lets go back to the 19th century practices, and watch about half of the worlds people die!

The standards in the US are not as strict as Canada's for one thing.
Yes for years there has been arsenic in blood thinners, but there are
new products out there like Pradax in Canada and Pradaxa in America
These products do not have arsenic in them period.

what blood thinners....... warfrin/coumidin does not have arsenic in it. So what blood thinners do, besides arsenic itself.
