FORMALIN: THE PROBLEM WITH FROZEN CHICKEN,TURKEY,FISH AND OTHER FROZEN FOODS

The Guardian newspaper in Lagos did a very good report on formalin in frozen foods some months ago. They have actually being publishing reports on the dangers of formalin in frozen foods and have been calling on Government officials to do something about it. Most of the frozen foods that come into Nigeria from Cotonou, Togo and other countries have a high concentration of formalin in them. In fact, according to The Guardian newspaper, most of these frozen foods stay in warehouses outside the country for two years before they enter Nigeria.

What is formalin?

The widespread use of formalin, in preservation of fish, fruit and other food items is posing a threat to public health. The chemical used as a solution in water keeps fish fresh and makes fruits attractive. This chemical, usually used to keep dead bodies from rotting, is now being used to preserve edible items.

Formalin is a colorless strong-smelling chemical substance usually used in industry of textiles, plastics, papers, paint, construction, and well known to preserve human corpse. It is derived from formaldehyde gas dissolved in water.Exposure from its gas or vapor can cause irritation to the eyes, nose and respiratory tract, causing sneezing, sore throat, larynx constriction, bronchitis and pneumonia. Multiple exposures can lead to asthma. It can also affect the skin, causing dermatitis or allergic reaction.

Serious inhalation or ingestion can cause severe pain with inflammation ulceration and necrosis of the mucous membranes, which line almost every internal organ. This may show as symptoms of nausea, vomiting blood, and diarrhea with bloody stool, blood from the urine, acidosis, vertigo, and circulation failure, then death. 30ml is the suggested lethal dose of formalin. The limit allowed in air that is still safe for human is less than 2 ppm.

Kpomo: Sellers Arrested In Sapele For Using Mortuary Embalming Fluid To Fatten Kpomo Meat

Even though this is old news, I have brought it here for emphasis. I have been speaking out against the consumption of kpomo not because of formalin but the singular fact that it causes colon cancer due to the way it is prepared. Used car tires are used to burn the meat. Used car tires when burnt are cancerous agents.

Kpomo Sellers in Sapele confessed to using mortuary embalming fluid to fatten their kpomo meat so as to make it increase in size and look more attractive to buyer. This confession was made to health officers in Sapele in Sapele local government area of Delta State.According to some of the sellers involved in this act, they said embalming fluid (Formaldehyde) from mortuary is injected into the cow skin meat after which they soak the Kpomo in water for a period of time. This process fattens the kpomo and makes it look delicious.

Formaldehyde is a chemical compound that is widely used in industrial manufacturing and a number of other industries. Many people are familiar with it in the form of formalin, an aqueous solution of formaldehyde that is used as an embalming preservative.

According to experts, Formaldehyde is toxic, known to cause cancer and a variety of other health problems, and for this reason, most people make an effort to avoid it.High levels of exposure can lead to cancer in the long term, and respiratory problems, skin conditions, and inflammation of the mucus membranes in the short term. Formaldehyde   causes serious health problems. This chemical is especially dangerous for children.

The unfortunate thing is that we are consuming this chemical in large doses in the frozen foods we eat especially frozen chicken, frozen turkey etc.

HOW , WHEN AND WHERE DOES CANCER OCCUR?

Cancer occurs when there is an undesirable change in the nucleus of the cells of the body, specifically the DNA. This results in accelerated cell growth - uncontrollable, inappropriate cell growth. The cancerous cell is the most toxic type of cell there is in the living body. It is believed that we all have these cancer cells so we must do whatever is necessary to enable the body to keep them where they are before they can become active cancer. 

As reported by the U.S. government and Center for Disease Control (CDC), cancers of the colon, breast, prostate and lung are the top four deadliest cancers in the modern world.

Fatty foods – meats, dairy products, and fried foods tend to causes the hormones in a Man’s (testosterone) or woman’s (estrogen) body to increase. When we eat fattier foods, these hormonal surges will occur and make cancer likely to occur.Accumulating evidence indicates that high consumption of red meat, kpomo and processed meats increases the risk of colon cancer.

Red meats are not the only cancer-causing animal products. Excess consumption of eggs and poultry with skin has been shown to increase the risk of recurrence of prostate cancer after initial diagnosis. 

Animal products contain no fiber. There is nothing to help carry that animal product through the digestive tract so it moves very sluggishly. When you eat raw fruits or vegetables, it will digest in 30 – 60 minutes and will be cleared out of your body in 16 – 20 hours (less than a day) whereas the animal product will remain in your body for up to 4 days before it is cleared out. The temperature inside your body is 98.6 degrees so when you hold meat in that hot environment for that long period, it decays. It rots! During this period the meat now becomes toxic and most times the toxins are absorbed into the body. This toxic environment is what the cancer cells need to thrive and multiply. It’s like a housefly laying eggs in a rotten environment. The larva needs that rotten environment to thrive.

Your goal is to gradually reduce the animal products in your diet until you're only consuming them two to three times per week or less and increase your intakes of vegetable, whole foods and fruits.

CANCER, YOU HAVE NOT WON: R.I.P Mum

The message of health and nutrition came upon me through adversity. I lost my Mum to cancer (Breast cancer) after a late battle. Yes, late because we didn't even know early enough that she had Cancer. By the time she was operated upon, her right breast removed and she started chemo therapy, her vital organs (liver, kidney etc) had been taken over.

Losing my Mum to cancer is one of the painful experiences I have had to go through in my life because I spent the last two weeks with her and saw her virtually  go through pains every night and day. This prompted me into research and studies and series of training on Nutrition, health and degenerative diseases. The truths I discovered were shocking.
