PRAISE FOR FOOD FORENSICS

Food Forensics definitely is a must-have book for serious-minded researchers, healthcare practitioners, and consumers, plus everyone who eats! I highly recommend it! Its a virtual encyclopedia about toxins we dont know about in our foods.

Activist Post

I emphatically agree that this book is an important public record of scientific truth. An amazing job on so many levels and an absolute must-read.

Michael T. Murray, ND, coauthor of The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine

Food Forensics is an incredible, groundbreaking book. Just buy it. And read it. You wont be sorry. It might be the best decision of your life.

Ty Bollinger, author and documentary film producer, TheTruthAboutCancer.com

Mike Adams has done a great service for all those who are concerned about the quality of what goes into their body. Food Forensics is an essential reality guide to food and water in the 21st century. Mike reveals why relying on federal bureaucrats to protect us from toxic additives and contaminants is a dangerous proposition. While the FDA and EPA are derelict in their duty even with multibillion-dollar budgets, the Health Ranger references and democratizes food safety science for the people so that practical strategies for clean living and safe detoxification are available to us all, right now!

Robert Scott Bell, D.A. Hom.

Radical, irreverent, always provocative. Mike Adamss new book, Food Forensics, should be required reading for all the Big Food, Big Biotech apologists who continue to poison and mislead us, as well as for activists and concerned consumers.

Ronnie Cummins, cofounder and international director of the Organic Consumers Association

Its unfortunate, that just as Americans are beginning to wake up to the importance of natural health approaches and a clean diet, Big Food and others are trying to capitalize on this new market by deceiving consumers into buying expensive, heavily contaminated health foods. Mike Adams has done a real public service by exposing the deceit and arming consumers with the knowledge to make informed decisions about the food they eat. Food Forensics is a must read for anyone wanting not only to avoid disease, but also to achieve optimal health and wellbeing.

Gretchen DuBeau, executive and legal director of the Alliance for Natural Health

Its not enough to just read the labels these days. In this book, Mike exposes some of the most prevalent, hidden dangers in your food that hes identified through years of research and scientific testingyou wont find any of these listed in the ingredients. But he doesnt just expose these toxic chemicals, he gives you a roadmap to help you and your family avoid them to confidently live a healthy and happy life.

Kevin Gianni, author of Kale and Coffee: A Renegades Approach to Health, Happiness, and Longevity

CONTENTS

T o pursue scientific research into food forensics, I oversaw the construction of a food forensics laboratory in central Texas. The labs central feature was an inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry instrument, called ICP-MS for short. It has the unique ability to detect metals and elements including nickel, lead, mercury, or magnesium at very low concentrationsin almost any sample you might want tested. I call it Star Trek technology because it seems to function almost as if by magic. But it isnt magic. Its just sufficiently advanced technology, as Arthur C. Clarke once explained.

In the months after its installation and calibration by expert chemists and instrumentation engineers, the ICP-MS instrument began to lift the veil on what was really present in all sorts of foods: junk foods, fast foods, super-foods, herbal supplements, vitamins, and more.

Thats when things began to get weird.

When the instrument identified very high levels of lead and cadmium in popular vegan protein products, I contacted the manufacturers of these products to suggest they pursue a voluntary recall of their products. A recall wasnt an option, I was informed, and I was urged to be careful about releasing anything publicly that would impact sales revenues of these companies.

When I discovered that popular ginkgo herbs grown in China contained a whopping 5 parts per million (ppm) of toxic leadan element proven to cause cancer and brain damageI was told that the lead contamination was naturally occurring and therefore didnt matter. Yet when I tested ginkgo herbs grown on U.S. soil, they tested remarkably clean, showing near-zero levels of heavy metals. It turns out that when ginkgo is grown in contaminated soils, it accumulates heavy metals in the herb. (This should not be surprising to anyone.)

When I found very high levels of tungsten (greater than 10,000 parts per billion, or ppb) in superfoods imported from China and Southeast Asia, I was told that tungsten was of no concern because the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has no limits on tungsten, and that therefore everyone should ignore the presence of this heavy metal in popular superfood products.

When I discovered an astonishing 11 ppm of lead in mangosteen superfood powder imported from Thailand, I went public with the finding and warned people not to eat mangosteen powder unless it had been tested. In response, I was blacklisted from several importers and not allowed to purchase their raw materials anymore. (My company purchases raw materials to manufacture certified organic foods and superfoods in Texas, and we meticulously test each material before purchasing it in volume for manufacturing.)
