Choosing organic foods or, even better, shopping at the local farmers market will cut down on the chemical exposure and processing of your food.

Read product labels. Spend time reading labels when choosing foods, household cleaners, shampoos, soaps and cosmetics. Avoid products with a lengthy chemical list and be on the lookout for the most common culprits of bodily harm, like parabens, ingredients ending in “-eth,” sodium lauryl or laureth sulfate, triclosan and triethanolamine (TEA).

 Exercise. Physical activity can help your child with weight management and further reduce exposure to hormones."

He exposed the issues in hopes for a change which soon was accomplished when Congress passed the Pure Food and Drug Act as well as the Meat Inspection Act. This was one of the first times the government had become involved with the production of food. This relates to modern day because it's not only the government's' job to provide safe and clean food but also our job to make sure the food we eat is vital for a healthy, stable lifestyle. ]]> 2019-02-04 16:55:47 UTC https://padlet.com/riljen0434/6n4oe6z9r948/wish/327404782 Works Cited riljen0434 https://padlet.com/riljen0434/6n4oe6z9r948/wish/327413543 https://www.delish.com/food/g3654/toxic-american-foods-that-have-been-banned-around-the-world/
