This is something i got in the mail... dunno whether true or not... but no harm reading....
PORK AWARENESS
Try this and see whether the pork you bought has worms. There goes with
your "Bak Kut Teh" for those who love it. Most men love to eat this so watch
out before it's too late.
If you pours Coke (yes, the soda) on a slab of pork, wait a little
while, you will SEE WORMS crawl out of it.
A message from the Health Corporation of Singapore about the Bad
effects of pork consumption. Pig's bodies contain MANY TOXINS, WORMS and LATENT
DISEASES.
Although some of these infestations are harboured in other animals,
modern veterinarians say that pigs are far MORE PREDISPOSED to these illnesses
than other animals. This could be because PIGS like to SCAVENGE and will eat
ANY kind of food, INCLUDING dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses, excreta
including their own, garbage, and other pigs. INFLUENZA (flu) is one of
the MOST famous illnesses which pigs share with humans. This illness is
haboured in the LUNGS of pigs during the summer months and tends to affect pigs
and human in the cooler months.
Sausage contains bits of pigs' lungs, so those who EAT pork sausage
tend to SUFFER MORE during EPIDEMICS of INFLUENZA. Pig meat contains EXCESSIVE
quantities of HISTAMINE and IMIDAZOLE compounds, which can lead to
ITCHING and INFLAMMATION; GROWTH HORMONE which PROMOTES INFLAMMATION and
growth; sulphur containing mesenchymal mucus which leads to SWELLING and
deposits of MUCUS in tendons and cartilage, resulting in ATHRITIS, RHEUMATISM, etc.
Sulphur helps cause FIRM human tendons and ligaments to be replaced by
the pig's soft mesenchymal tissues, and degeneration of human cartilage.
Eating pork can also lead to GALLSTONES and OBESITY, probably due to
its HIGH CHOLESTEROL and SATURATED FAT content. The pig is the MAIN CARRIER
of the TAENIE SOLIUM WORM, which is found in its flesh. These tapeworms
are found in human intestines with greater frequency in nations where pigs
are eaten. This type of tapeworm can pass through the intestines and affect
many other organs, and is incurable once it reaches beyond a certain stage.
One in six people in the US and Canada has RICHINOSIS from eating trichina
worms, which are found in pork.
Many people have NO SYMPTOMS to warm them of this, and when they do,
they resemble symptoms of many other illnesses. These worms are NOT noticed
during meat inspections.
SHAMPOO
Cancer-causing substance in Shampoo. Go home and check your shampoo.
Change before it's too late... Check the ingredients listed on your
shampoo bottle, and see they have a substance by the name of Sodium Laureth
Sulfate, or simply SLS. This substance is found in most shampoos; manufacturers
use it because it produces a lot of foam and it is cheap.
BUT the fact is, SLS is used to scrub garage floors, and it is very
strong!!! It is also proven that it can cause cancer in the long run,
and this is no joke. Shampoos that contains SLS : Vo5, Palmolive, Paul
Mitchell, L'Oreal, the new Hemp Shampoo from Body Shop etc contain this
substance.
The first ingredient listed (which means it is the single most
prevalent ingredient) in Clairol's Herbal Essences is Sodium Laureth Sulfate.
Therefore, I called one company, and I told them their product contains
a substance that will cause people to have cancer. They said, Yeah we
knew about it but there is nothing we can do about it because we need that
substance to produce foam.
