What is chlorpropham? Oh nothing but a toxic plant growth regulator that causes many toxicological effects like retardation, irritation of skin ( linked to eczema) and eyes, difficulty ( linked to asthma and allergies) breathing, and tumors. Once again our FDA allows such toxic pesticides in our foods like blueberries, carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, garlic, onions, spinach, and more! This lovely little toxin is used as a product called Bud Nip. To prevent any sprouting off of our foods... So this being used results in laziness and careless farming that is approved for Americans to use and consume. It's pathetic!!!
Im only ranting this becasue of my previous blog about if pesticides is linked to obesity. I did some further research and found that the toxic chemical Chlorpropham is put on our foods. That is why main stream grocery stores can sell produce and we the consumer buy them the "so called" fresh produce is preserved and lasts up to a week longer than organic.
I know Organic can with some foods be more expensive but if you buy what you need and will eat in a few days not very much difference.
I'm still doing research on this and am finding more interesting facts. Just astonishing how little regulation on toxins there are.
