Is the Peanut Butter You Are Eating Carcinogenic?

Though there's no immediate need to turn your PB&J's into jelly-only sandwiches, there is a chance that peanut butter may contain the carcinogen aflatoxin. The soft and porous shell that encases peanuts can allow fungus with aflatoxin to penetrate into the nut, explains Organic Authority.

Although aflatoxin has yet to be proven to cause cancer in the United States, it has been documented as causing liver cancer in developing countries where corn, peanuts and grains are grown without strict soil quality regulation. Currently, all commercially-produced peanut butters must be tested for aflatoxin, but grind-your-own peanut butter may actually be at a higher risk because the peanuts sit around the longest without refrigeration, allowing more mold to develop, according to Organic Authority. Planet Green also adds that natural peanut butters may be more susceptible since "they are less processed and have a shorter shelf life, therefore the mold is more likely to thrive."

This alarm bell has been sounded before. In an informative write-up, Celeb doc Andrew Weil explains that the Consumers Union found the exact same results about a decade ago, when it was discovered that supermarket brands like Peter Pan, Jif and Skippy contained the less afloxtin than natural brands. Consumer Reports has researched aflatoxins since 1972, but still says peanuts are worth eating for their health benefits.

There's a simple precaution if you're concerned. Refrigerate your peanut butter -- it'll keep out the mold.

The Truth About What's Really In Flu Shots


iHealthTube.com - Flu Shots Are Made From WHAT?

So... You want to know what Flu shots are made of ? Besides the 7.2 billion in funding from the government - Flu shots are made in eggs - they used to inject the virus's in the egg and grow the anti bodies for about 11 days - but now they are using a new "cell-line" technology that can be harvesting every 6 to 8 weeks - But this technique sometimes uses Dog DNA - insect cells - and all sorts of other new untested chemicals for long term health effects.

Feel free to look at this list of chemicals found in Flu shots:

FEEL FREE TO LOOK UP THOSE CHEMICALS - 

We took the liberty to give you some information about the first chemical:
Formaldehyde: In view of its widespread use, toxicity and volatility, exposure to formaldehyde is a significant consideration for human health. In 2011, the US National Toxicology Program described formaldehyde as "known to be a human carcinogen" - WIKIPEDIA -
