People are out there in the health realm screaming about Apeel on fruits and vegetables. While everyone should have every right to be concerned about what goes on their food for many reasons, the truth and reality of what the food supply is laced with goes way beyond Apeel. What people really need to know is that this has been occurring for decades. Toxic synthetic waxes, toxic applications of ammonia, toxic mold inhibitors, toxic fungicides, toxic preservative agents and more are sprayed, laced, dipped and coated on produce and animal products. This has no connection to pesticides and herbicides sprayed on conventional and organic produce, instead, these are separate industrial entities for the most part. The question is, why are these industries doing this? The answer is, to try to keep produce and meat fresh for as long as possible so that growers, middle men, and grocery store chains feel warm, safe and fuzzy and not worried about the food quickly going bad.

In this episode you will learn about this food wastage and what’s being placed on our food that makes Apeel look like an Appetizer compared to all of the food crimes occurring.
