Hey friends! Happy Thursday!
I’m about to be a buzzkill… but I’m so sorry/not sorry. I can’t sit by and ignore these things when I read articles that need to be shared.
Toxic additives in ice cream & popsicles
This article in the link above is from one of my favorite sources—The Environmental Working Group. I can’t stress enough how much you should follow them for all kinds of information about foods and agricultural practices and the big fight they’re fighting in Congress to help eliminate as many of these toxins as possible.
If you don’t do anything else (like make homemade ice cream and popsicles, which isn’t as hard as you’d think), AT LEAST READ THE LABELS! As the article states, Titanium Dioxide has been banned in Europe. They conducted studies showing that even NANOPARTICLES of this substance causes chromosomal damage. Are you kidding me? How about the kids in neighborhoods getting their favorite Bomb Pops from the ice cream man all summer long? NANOPARTICLES! And this is ok with our government?!
Then the Red #3 that is STILL in our foods—even I remember the dye that made all the news in 1990 as proven to cause cancer BY OUR FDA! So they responded by eliminating them from cosmetics and other topicals, but it’s perfectly fine to put them in sweets we give the kids, or enjoy ourselves. Also, not mentioned in this article, but this is also one of the red dyes that have been linked to the drastic rise in ADHD in our kids! Yet, they just keep throwing pills at our babies instead of encouraging parents to STOP FEEDING THEM POISON!
Y’all, I’m mad. ESPECIALLY when something so blatantly affects our kids. Stop thinking this stuff is insignificant. There is a reason why our youngins who were born 2015 and later are amongst the first generation in this modern era who are expecting to have a shorter lifespan than their parents. And the FDA calls all of this garbage “GRAS” (generally recognized as safe) when clearly other countries are attempting to protect their citizens.
All I can say is I hope you get mad too & make changes in your home. I’d like to say write your congressman or do all of the things us good American citizens should do… absolutely… do those things. BUT PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE TO LIVE THINKING YOU ARE BEING PROTECTED BY THE FDA OR OTHER GOVERNMENT AGENCIES OR THAT POLITICIANS ARE LISTENING! You MUST do your own due diligence in your home and eliminate these ingredients that are harming your family. I was once the one feeding my family so much poison in the form of processed foods, and THOUGHT I was feeding them well. Once my eyes were opened, I could never go back.
Client Spotlight:
I love my clients’ NSV celebration day every Thursday! Non Scale Victories (NSV’s) are what I prefer to measure rather than weight, and we treat the weight loss (when necessary) as an added bonus.
Last week one of my clients who had only been working with me for two weeks so far noticed an improvement of cracked knuckles she was told a year ago was due to gut inflammation.
Another said her husband is now eating what she’s eating and his blood sugar isn’t all over the place anymore. He’s had to cut way back on his meds! (I LOVE WHEN SPOUSES BENEFIT!!!)

Weekly Scripture:
“She equips herself with strength [spiritual, mental, and physical fitness for her God-given task] And makes her arms strong. She sees that her gain is good; Her lamp does not go out, but it burns continually through the night [she is prepared for whatever lies ahead].” Proverbs 31:17-18 AMP
Have an amazing week, friends!
