Hi Lloyd ,
Since you pass on so much to so many people, thought I would
send this your way*
much love & light

Note that this
comes from Walter Reed Medical Center---
I did this every day but will stop after reading this!!!
It is especially important that parents take time to read
this information.
It is being currently circulated at Walter Reed Army Medical
Center.
Dioxin Carcinogens are a documented cause of cancer. Especially
breast cancer. Don't freeze your plastic water bottles
with water as freezing
releases dioxin in the plastic. Dr. Edward Fujimoto
from Castle hospital
was recently interviewed on a TV program explaining this health
hazard. (He is the manager of the Wellness Program at the
hospital.) He was talking about Dioxin Carcinogens and
how bad they are for us.
He also said that we should not be heating our food in the
microwave using
plastic containers. This applies to foods that contain
fat. He said that the combination of fat, high heat
and plastics releases dioxin into the food and ultimately
into the cells of the body. Dioxin are carcinogens and
highly toxic to the cells of our bodies.
Instead, he recommends using glass, Corning Ware, or ceramic
containers for heating food. You get the same results...without
the dioxin.
So such things as TV dinners, instant ramen and soups, etc.,
should be removed from the container and heated in something
else.
Pure paper isn't bad but you never know what else is in the
paper. It is
safer to use tempered glass, Corning Ware, etc.
He said we might remember when some of the fast food restaurants
moved
away from the foam containers to paper. The dioxin problem
is one of the
reasons.
In addition: Saran wrap placed
over foods as they are nuked, with the high heat, actually
drips poisonous toxins into the food,
use paper towels.
