Farmers who milk cows are well aware that udders are
caked with mud and fecal material. In order to sanitize a cow’s
under-regions, dairymen bathe those udders with a cleaning fluid consisting
of iodine and a caustic chemical called NPE or NOPE (for long).
Iodine and NPE then drip into the milk we drink. NPE is an abbreviation for
nonylphenol
ethoxylates.
"If you drink much from a bottle marked 'poison,' it is
almost certain to disagree with you, sooner or later."
- Lewis Carroll
Dairymen do not use Ivory when udders get filthy. They use poison. Ivory
is 99 percent pure. Poison is 99 percent pu.
Give them credit for meaning well. Farmers who milk cows are well aware that
udders are caked with mud and fecal material. In order to sanitize a cow’s
under-regions, dairymen bathe those udders with a cleaning fluid consisting
of iodine and a caustic chemical called NPE or NOPE (for long).
Iodine and NPE then drip into the milk we drink. NPE is an abbreviation for
nonylphenol
ethoxylates.
The December, 2014 issue of Experimental And Toxicologic Pathology contains
a study in which scientists at the University of Calabria observed extensive
liver damage in amphibins (newts) from nonyphenol ethoxylates.
In September of 2014, the journal Food Chemistry reported the widespread
presence of these chemicals in beehives and honey reserved for commercial
use. NPE is in the environment, and we have dairy farmers and their cows to
thank.
Just when you debated that your pizza and ice cream contained growth
hormones, allergy-causing proteins, and female steroid hormones, but
continued to enjoy it because it tasted so damned good, comes the news that
a man-made chemical could creating endocrine disorders.
Will you continue to be a duped dope by ingesting NPE?
Earlier this year, the Chinese people rejected American dairy products for
high levels of nonylphenol ethoxylates. Scientists have identified
nonylphenol ethoxylates as xenoestrogens responsible for causing
endocrine disorders.
"We must pay greater attention to keeping our bodies and
minds healthy and able to heal. Yet we are making it difficult for our
defenses to work. We allow things to be sold that should not be called food.
Many have no nutritive value and lead to obesity, salt imbalance, and
allergies."
- David Suzuki
