Can it possibly be true that human fetal tissue is now in some
foods, personal care products and vaccines? Surely it would have to say
so on any label or informed consent form, right?
Ah, no.
Amazingly,
both the number and type of products are increasing which contain human
fetal tissue or contain ingredients made from them. Naturally, most
don't include 'human fetal tissue' in their ingredient list, and you'd
certainly not expect to find them in some of the places where they're
actually used.
For example, some processed food companies use
flavor enhancers made from them; some vaccines, particularly those
against viruses, are grown using fetal cell tissue; some medications and
some personal care products are also involved.
To raise your
awareness further, you can check some online resources, including
endalldisease.com, ewg.org, healthfreedomalliance.org, mercola.com and
nvic.org. Meanwhile, here is a description of the type of products that
may contain it:
1. Some soft drinks, various bottled beverages
including coffee, bottled water, flavored bottled water, some juices,
bottled teas, energy beverages.
2. Coffee creamers, particular brands of instant soups, bouillon cubes, catsups, sauces, seasoning, instant noodles.
3. Ten different brands of chewing gum, bubble gum.
4. At least twelve brands of candies and cough drops.
5. Beauty products, especially anti-wrinkle creams, restorative creams.
6.
Vaccines from at least four different companies; fetal cells are
present in a measles/mumps/rubella; measles/mumps/rubella/chickenpox;
chickenpox; polio; hepatitis-A; hepatitis A & B combination;
shingles; rabies.
7. Medications, including those for cystic fibrosis and rheumatoid arthritis.
There
are a number of concerns people hold about consuming fetal tissue. One
is the possibility of setting up auto-immune responses. These are
reactions in the vaccinated person's own immune system when it gets
confused in carrying out its job: to determine what is 'me' (my own
tissue) and what is 'not me' and therefore should be attacked and
eliminated.
Other objections to consuming human fetal tissue
include moral and/or ethical grounds. Still others simply think it's a
bad idea.
If your response fits into any of those categories, your best bet is to follow up with your own research.
Last,
if you don't want to consume fetal tissue, don't rely on this list
only, as it is by no means complete. Also, manufacturers change
ingredients frequently. If you want to avoid consuming human fetal
tissue, your best bet is to research any product you purchase that you
think might qualify for this list..
Meanwhile, at least if you avoid purchasing processed food altogether, you will avoid consuming it in food.
