Have you gone into a grocery store pharmacy to buy something for a cold, pain relief, stomachache, and then start to read each product to see which one is close to the symptoms you are feeling only to feel frustrated because you have to buy at least half the shelf just to cover all your needs?
I know I’m exaggerating, but it feel like that at times, or you can’t find what you need and that is worse yet.
Have you ever questioned what they put in the medications that we casually buy off the shelves? What those big words mean?
I bought a soothing gel with aloe. It said refreshing relief for sunburns moisturizes and cools. So I decide to read the the ingredient on the back, the only thing in it that was good for me was the aloe and there was not enough of that in the bottle because everything else they added needed room in the to bottle along with it. Some of the ingredients that they put in it, if you use it for long periods of time dries your skin and causes wrinkles, irritates the skin, and cause rashes, even cancer! But they don’t tell you that.
The only way to find out is to take the time to check out what in the world these ingredients are. They are hoping you don’t take time out of your busy life to read what is being put in your meds, lotions, shampoos, or conditioners. Sadly, even the food we eat.
What has happened with our high quality standards?
Today’s technology has us thinking we are doing great in our quality of life, only to be seeing more obesity and illness in life then ever before.
What has changed? Everything. Some good and a lot more bad. Our food is over-processed and made to grow faster. Our animals are feed some kind of steroids to grow faster and bigger, produce more, and least of all they forget that we consume all that which is put on our plates for us to devourer, without thinking of what its doing to our bodies.
Are we as blind to this as the animals that they do this to?
We really need to open everyone’s eyes to the reality of what is going on and make the right decisions and choices. All our lives depend on this in order to save the life of our children because they are being poisoned right under our noses, and we are letting them get away with it.
If each one of us as a parent were to poison our child, we would be convicted of murder and put in prison! Yet, many companies that make our cereals for our family are putting chemicals in our foods and telling you its healthy for you, or worse “its organic!” Wow! How greedy is that?
Bowing down to the almighty dollar.
We as consumers need to put a stop to this. Its already gotten out of hand. We need to get involved more and not let them have that much control over our food preparation.
