Chicken and arsenic. That’s a horrible thought to chew on. As global population grows, with larger parts of earth becoming uncultivable thanks to climate change and as more ocean water gets polluted with plastic, humans have no alternative but to increase food supply artificially, at any health cost to themselves.
Twenty years ago in North America, 1 out of every 3 people were at risk of cancer, stroke and heart attack in their lifetime. Now the ratio has worsened. Let’s become vegans or vegetarians you might say. That is no solution. Even in the plant world, things are not want they seem. I got a good laugh from a vegetable farmer who comes weekly to sell his produce in my neighbourhood, when I asked him for organic stuff. He went into a long explanation of how organic vegetables and fruits grown by his area’s ‘organic’ farmers were anything but organic and for almost half the price more. So what can we realistically do to take care of our health? Note and implement the little bits of information that come from credible sources like this. In the case of chicken, eat a little less of it and don’t hesitate to pay more when you come across labels that contain what you are looking for, out of reputed and regulated farms. After all you cannot go through life completely abstaining from chicken and the several other food sources that make our table an attractive place to sit on. https://www.webmd.com/food-recipes/ss/slideshow-the-truth-about-chicken Roland.
