Subway Ingredient Also Found In Yoga Mats: Azodicarbonamide

Do not eat here!

Thanks to Food Babe's article, millions of USA consumers are now aware that their favorite fast food gluten based bread products use an all-american common unpronounceable ingredient that is banned in most of the world, 
azodicarbonamide


What the Heck is "Azodicarbonamide"



BANNED IN EUROPE, AUSTRALIA & SINGAPORE 
BUT PERMITTED THROUGHOUT USA

WHAT THE HECK IS IT?
Azodicarbonamid is commonly used as a flour bleaching agent in common gluten and dough conditioners according to the the FDA. It's also the same ingredient used in yoga mats, shoe soles, floor mats, and window gaskets.  It's linked to asthma and other possible allergies for works involved in plants... Further, those who work with this ingredient wear masks far more urgently than just to protect their face, but to protect their entire health! Who at the FDA approved this and why is the FDA to be trusted after yet another ridiculous global issue?

Here Comes Lovely Candy Co Gluten-Free Product Review

Ahhh, finally a gluten-free alternative to artificially flavored Starburst that is comparably delicious! If you're like me than you just can't have one gluten free candy, so when I need my sweets I eat these Lovely Candies because I can trust them to be gluten-free and non-GMO with mouthwatering flavor burst!


Lovely Candy Co 
These are individually wrapped squares, shaped similar to a Starburst but tastier, more variety, sticks less to your teeth and sourced from the best ingredients on the planet. Shwiiing! They source brown rice syrup instead of corn and add legitimate real fruit ingredients (blackberries, blueberries cherries, apples, cranberry, etc) without artificial and numbered food ingredients, lol.

Antibacterial Soap Reported By FDA As "Dangerous"



Okay here I go, STOP using antibacterial soaps, seriously. Go with all-natural soaps that are just as good if not better for you, your family, and the environment as the ingredient, triclosan (sounds lovely doesn't it) in these products are finally publically reportedly very bad.

Thanks to the FDA (who approves anything if you pay them) announcement to the mainstream, we're now at risk if we use anti-bacterial soaps. Almost every corporation and home in the USA, perhaps in the world, maybe at some point, used a product with triclosan, the chemical found in all anti-bacterial soaps. It's a claim that says very clearly that you're cleaning yourself to remove possible bacteria from your face, body, hands, etc which in theory is good, but actually with deeper analysis is not good at all.  What confuses me the most is this claim has been in the market for a VERY long time without research and studies in the mainstream to educate, typical actually, since the FDA is very late to the party very often. Is it their fault or someone else's about this late breaking finding?

FDA Gluten-Free Regulation - Welcome To The Real World

It's time to get a tad more excited for the FDA gluten-free regulation in August 2014, but not pat FDA on the back, oh no. Although it's not crystal clear and the policing of restaurants and brands is as grey as a 21 shot at your 21st bday party, we must get happier than the alternative, nothing.

FDA Urges Restaurants To Comply With Gluten-Free Regulations






ARE WE EXCITED, EH?
      
WHAT'S THIS MEAN?  
    
WHAT WILL ACTUALLY HAPPEN?

The FDA follow up announcement was shared with me via Celiac.com and I am very excited about this update, albeit FDA has passed no laws! This additional clarification puts a well needed pressure on the restaurant industry to be completely accountable for their gluten-free menus options. I've lived in NY, NJ and Colorado and have visited dozens of states in search for restaurants with legitimate, safe gluten-free options finding a 99.9% failure rate. Have you given in to the typical, irresponsible gluten-free menus before?
