government agency would put a stop to it. wrong this perception is carefully crafted by stan to make a financial gain. to these companies you are a projection a demographic. a potential purchaser or revenue generator there's nothing more to the story don't let tony the tiger. i received a phone call from stephen joseph he told me about a high school teacher when. she was teaching advanced health class at a specialty high school in new york city her students were doing research about the use of trans fats in our food so we met up with them to talk about the project. how many people trans fats foods. really. keep your hands up. i mean i like what you said over here you had

a great comment obviously if these words aren't good for you i mean nobody goes and it's a twinkie or big mac thinking it's helpful you know it's not good but this is amazing because this is the thing that really got me was that foods that i thought were healthy foods that i was feeding my two and a half year old daughter at home and that's what really got me upset. over. time to me to buy all these amounts of. products and also the hydrogenated oils and where it's heading which is the right that's the worst of it so if. i think i need any guns all the time when i'm babysitting and i looked in the back and said they were. and i was surprised to see that i've gotten a divorce i think it's the spring stops on all those part of the street spread it would be a lot harder. you would think to look out for it because it's. a

labeling law it is really confusing it's been an important step forward to require the transcripts be on the food label sort of gives consumers some awareness about the amount of transfer out there but it's very confusing because it's legal to own up to half a gram of transfer out you know product and still have a zero there in a line for transfer it's. everybody knows when zero means except in washington zero does not mean zero zero means up to half a grand when we're talking about trans fats hydrogenated vegetable oil the optimal safe amount is zero. they only have to label half a gram per serving so you still need to read your ingredient label. so that the chance has become. like that which.

is why there are more there see transfer transferred to the major scientific equipment to determine whether or not this translates into probably what he was supposed to do take the equipment to a restaurant with you and test the food to see if it's got transferred and if zero doesn't mean zero that food companies might be lying when they put zero grams of trans person serving on the front of packages. i had to spend a weekend at the university of maryland biochemistry allowed to find out. i have been presented with these five samples of. rebel films and they asked me to analyze them or transfer content. first one is the tallest margarine and it has zero trans on the label and the new christo has zero trans on the label.

so will take a sample and how modernize it. and that's what will be analyzed for the trans fatty acids. and. every food sample that we had tested was labeled as having zero grams of trans fat person. unfortunately all of these foods contain the deadly grade in the most surprising promise margarine which contains zero point four six grams of trans fat

per serving. and so if the savvy consumer looks at the ingredients partially hydrogenated vegetable all of that means trance fats so how can it say zero and still be contained partially hydrogenated vegetable oils confusion is not a good thing i think we really probably should not be allowing zero there unless there is no partially hydrogenated vegetable oil in a product after i started really reading labels i notice some truly disturbing processed foods. bars are designed specifically for people with diabetes. you know those two harvard researchers just told us how transplant them hydrogenated oils excel or a insulin resistance and lead to diabetes. why would any companies partially hydrogenated oil in a product made exclusively for diabetics. what about slim fast if trans

fats are causing obesity why on earth are they putting these oils in the diet products that is crazy. this really got me thinking about the foods i've been feeding my daughter. food companies using other dangerous ingredients in these foods. during my research on the effects of trans fat i was surprised by some other corporate ingredients that i found. bleached wheat flour this is the first ingredient on so many product labels. during processing the wheat is sprayed with chlorine gas the same thing as your household bleach but in gas form. that bleach bottle in your laundry room has a warning against consumption written on it for a reason. why are they putting this in our food. why are we eating foods that are manufactured like this. by processing wheat flour with bleach these corporations

are doing more than adding a potentially poisonous ingredient they're stripping the wheat of its nutritional value and creating a need for enriched vitamins. when you think of vitamins what do you visualize is it a picture of an orange pill form. if so you have the wrong image. right right and the abridged vitamins they put cereals breads and other food products do not come from natural sources like an orange. to be vitamins and in rich flour come from chemicals petroleum bacteria and rocks. modern dike less right at the last part of the trans fat puzzle. safire's use replace expensive ingredients like butter cream and eggs because they have a longer shelf life if you bake your cakes in home you don't get all if you do whatever make your own home hollandaise sauce or some people you know you don't so

it's all part of the. i don't have time to cook give me something quick there are thousands of them on the market but the only way to examine the ingredients in modern ones like most rides is by reading the patent application on file at the u.s. patent office. the documents many contain partially hydrogenated oils as the base for their formula since there is less than half a gram per serving of companies using these ingredients have no legal obligation to tell you that trans fats are present. the only way to eliminate this poison from your diet is to read the label on everything you eat if we stop buying it they will stop making it. the majority of the food that you consume comes from somewhere just like this. and the stuff that doesn't come from here well you get it from a place like this or even some place like this or in a place like american more than any other country but what you're here.

for. everybody. to the trans fat epidemic. in the restaurant industry has skyrocketed from one nine hundred fifty. back then restaurant sales were about fourteen billion dollars a year in two thousand and eight sales in the restaurant industry reached over five hundred fifty billion dollars that's five hundred fifty thousand million dollars. in comprehensible number the fast food industry claimed over one hundred seventy

billion dollars and mcdonald's the undisputed champion of fast food captured two billion dollars in one year. the food industry uses the cheapest ingredients and food to sell their goods and affordable price to the consumer. this results in the most gradients and processes to deliver the cheapest possible product. in the meantime as we keep these adulterated foods they're waging. speeding the disease process. into. irresponsible health care system.

most people think the f.d.a. will protect them from these harmful practices. from the truth right now the f.d.a. is doing more to protect the manufacturers. now that you have entered the health care machine you get to deal with all the paperwork and red tape that come with any insurance company but now it applies to. the emotional burden of being processed and given the standard package solution usually drugs. more drugs means more money you spend your money on treatment you can afford is more cheap.

it can be pretty tricky for consumers to navigate the treacherous waters of food choices and honestly transplants are just the tip of the iceberg. did you know that the f.d.a. allows over fourteen thousand chemical food additives in our food supply and nobody nobody is testing the interactions of these chemicals inside your body. not the people making them not the people selling them and not even the people regulating them. there's a lot of lawyers in washington d.c. some good some bad bending going as one of the good ones for eighteen years he was a researcher investigator and legal counsel at the food and drug administration he explained how the regulatory agency does its job. i've case primary mission is to

protect the public. their job is to to both try to prevent unsafe products from getting on the market that could could affect consumers their jurisdiction is actually quite broad they have jurisdiction over over foods and pharmaceuticals a whole lot of responsibility and a wide jurisdiction so it's easy to get confused about how they actually operate what does the f.d.a. do. you have to help me with my diet out there presumably. to make sure that. i work for the f.d.a. . regulated. and we regulate about a third of the nation's economy third of the nation's economy they're trying their best but we're overwhelmed by all the products that are out there right now and it makes for scary. head of the public is losing confidence in the food supply the

safety of the food supply and that's bad news for the food industry if people don't trust that its products are safe enough to protect. the f.d.a. doesn't have the authority to recall foods he relies on food companies in a sense the industry. is kind of regulating itself and has been for probably twenty years and so you end up with the agency trying to balance the interests and this is where i think they're one of the political conflict because many people would argue that they're the only injuries they should be balancing is the risk for the consumer that's what they should be focusing on for many years the food and drug administration has considered partially hydrogenated oil to be generally recognized to say and for many years who was but in the last twenty years it's been generally

recognized as dangerous and the f.d.a. is derelict in not getting it out of our food supply. we tried to set up an interview with someone from the f.d.a. and we even stopped by the headquarters for a visit and staying outside. they denied it and only had one question. you want. food represents one third of our economy why isn't the food and drug administration doing a thorough job of regulating it all thanks to some early security people in films not. we came we saw. and they conquered i know a lot of people who are having difficult times reaching the agency and some of them are in the press and some of them are consumers and some of them are consumer advocates and some of them are attorneys trying to represent their clients there's a lot of work there for the f.d.a. to do to protect the public's health it doesn't have the funding to do it in all too often it doesn't have the will to do it either thanks to wealthy corporations

and a dysfunctional government the f.d.a. lacks the funding and staff to protect the food supply that has been left to private citizens i'm a former lobbyist i used to lobby in washington d.c. i look at this for years and testified in congress i never bothered trying to get anything done in washington d.c. because i knew immediately i was going to be coming up against congressman services who would be. on the receiving end of campaign contributions from food companies and a part of it is the media we have so much media hype today call it media nutrition media supplements and individuals today are really being told by magazines and newspapers what's healthy and what's not healthy term and here's something very significant you are being told what the food manufacturers want you to hear.

all in favor. of those. parents thank you very much a unanimous vote by the new york city board of health means by july of two thousand and eight to serve at all of new york city's twenty six thousand restaurants will be free of trans fat. it is up to the state law to make sure of the food supply they focus on the account of wanting to know the deli component in our food supply in the cooking oil we should take it out to make sure that the health and well being of california are of most importance to all of those awful years especially here in california for example we've gotten the use of lead paint so we know the lead of that for public health but we know the trash that is that a lot alike and we just found that of the.

doctor first or told us earlier that modern medicine has failed in preventing the diseases that are affecting us most he says it's because our focus has been on treatments and the treatments are far too expensive. so what we should do it now we have to focus our attention we should search why we fail. is greed is created that's what. you talk about dream it dream it. and getting paid are directly correlated. i believe the reason that people not associated food with the disease is because a part of it is they don't understand that what you eat becomes you transfer that in some ways really like ionizing radiation we know that it's very dangerous a million doses of high doses and it's really impossible to say that there's any safe level so i think the sensible thing is really to have no transfer from partially hydrogenated oils in our diets people forget the major impact the diet

has on the public's health it's easy to forget when the food tastes so good kind of foods we're reading are a major cause of obesity heart disease cancer diabetes are still pro-science too thick a in our in fact one of the great challenges we have today is how we promote health or how we prevent strokes and heart attacks so what is the. the answer is not me telling you these the answer is you because the american public knows very well they would take a mention see that it is more king's bad blood pressure back lack of a spot but they all know that so these she's not to have to tell you the issues are you ready in your life to put health as

a priority or you are not. health should be everyone's priority and the bottom line is that trans fats and processed foods do not contribute to healthy living i wasn't suing because trust makes you fat i was certain because transfer rich. foods that contain these harmful fats are not part of the nutritional diet and if you're eating trans fat i urge you to stop. learning more and more about how what we need facts are one term health and well being refined over processing our food as having many severe consequences. eliminating them from your diet can be a first step on the road to healthy living killing ourselves and we killing ourselves are we didn't are all graves with our teeth. personal responsibility is the cornerstone of any diet change the other is good information you have to look past the food companies and the media because their sales german

enterprises they're not concerned with your health. their main concern is the shelf life of the product an army concerns the shelf life of the individual . all markets are sales driven. if we start buying healthier foods in these companies will be forced to sell us healthier foods. you have to take responsibility for yourself you can't wait for your government or these corporations to regulate the safety of our food the f.d.a. is is is expecting virtually nothing when it comes into the united states market. i think the problem is very green we're still in the private rivalry. grannie.

a very warm welcome to you this is all seen live from moscow now is the phone high . king scandal in britain continues to unfold on a daily basis storm clouds gather over prime minister david cameron his close connection to the embattled rupert murdock's and movie or empire has seen him facing some difficult questions and paloma today along with a new mori poll giving cameron his lowest popularity rating coming to power rumors circulating a story. down meanwhile article and it takes a look at an aspect of the case for example seem so accidental. another political scandal erupts another whistleblower diaries sean hoare was the first former news of the world journalists to go on the record to allege that phone hacking was endemic at the paper and that its editor andy colson actively encouraged it paul was found dead in his house on monday setting the blogosphere

into a frenzy of comparisons with the case of dr david kelly why isn't the sean hoare story bigger reminds me of how dr david kelly was bumped off eerily similar tragedies of seem who are in david kelly all this madness toward the end david kelly shawn who are those what i'm thinking something's not trying to talk to kelly was the u.n. weapons inspector who first cause doubt on the government's claim that iraq could deploy weapons of mass destruction within forty five minutes it led to scrutiny of tony blair's decision to invade iraq by extraordinary coincidence kelly's body was discovered exactly eight years before that of sean hordes on the eighteenth of july two thousand and three it was british journalist andrew gilligan who david kelly had spoken to to publicize his belief that the forty five minute claim had been exaggerated gilligan believes there are similarities between.
