wine industry victimized
cheap Canada Goose (NaturalNews) Four residents in California are reportedly suing wine makers for selling products that contain what the lawsuit claims is Canada Goose Parka a “dangerous” level of arsenic. The lawsuit lists 28 California wineries Canada Goose sale as https://www.canadagoose-jackets-online.com defendants, including companies like Franzia, Mogen David and Almaden. cheap Canada Goose
buy canada goose outlet canada goose jacket “According to Canada Goose online the lawsuit,” reports the New York Daily News, “tests by three independent laboratories found that in some cases arsenic levels were 500% higher than what’s considered safe.” buy canada goose jacket
The scientifically illiterate mainstream media jumped on the news, widely repeating the scare story even though it has no uk canada goose outlet basis in actual scientific fact, as I explain in detail below. Here are canada goose coats just some of the scary sounding headlines and statements found across the media, where journalists have absolutely no clue about the relative toxicity vs. safety of elements such as arsenic or mercury:
canada goose store CBS News: “Very high levels of arsenic” in top selling wines canada goose store
Canada Goose online A totally false statement! There aren’t very high levels of arsenic in these wines. CBS is quoting the guy who runs the lab that stands to profit from the fearmongering. Canada Goose online
canada goose clearance San Francisco Gate: “Of those wines, 83 showed presumably toxic levels canada goose store of arsenic, above the 10 parts per billion that s considered safe for drinking water.” canada goose clearance
Utter nonsense. “Presumably toxic?” The levels tested were extremely low and nowhere near “toxic.”
Canada Goose Jackets NY Daily News: “Dangerous arsenic levels found in California wine from 28 producers, suit claims” Canada Goose Jackets
You can file a lawsuit that claims anything. The NY Daily News should have known enough to canada goose uk outlet realize the claims were bogus.
canada goose coats USA Today: “A class action lawsuit cheap canada goose uk claims dozens of California wineries produced wine with dangerously high levels of arsenic.” canada goose coats
Canada Goose Outlet Once again, USA Today seems to be unable to tell truth from fiction. It is repeating an canada goose uk black friday outright fiction claimed in the lawsuit which seeks damages from wine makers. If I filed a lawsuit claiming canada goose coats on sale Pepsi contained high levels of Adamantium (the stuff Wolverine’s claws are made from, didn’t ya know?), would USA Today also print that story and give it credence?

canada goose deals The California buy canada goose jacket wine arsenic Canada Goose Outlet story is all a junk science HOAX!While the media headlines shown above may sound convincing, the truth is that the accusations are part of an outlandish hoax. The lawsuit’s claims are blatantly false, and the California wine industry is being unfairly victimized by what I see as a highly irresponsible attempt to extort money from wine makers through a junk science lawsuit that suffers from fatal errors I will explain here. canada goose deals
The group that put out the original press release, it seems, is trying to drum up lab testing business from other wine and beer manufacturers. The mainstream media played right into the hoax, providing them with enormous free publicity even as they conducted what I have to call really BAD science.
As you read this, keep in mind that I’m well known for sounding the alarm over lead in organic brown rice proteins, cadmium in cacao powder and mercury in flu shots. I’m acutely aware of the toxicity of certain elements in food and beverages, yet even I Canada Goose Jackets look at this arsenic in wine story and shake my head in bewilderment at how canadian goose jacket the mainstream media has run with this without having any real understanding of the scientific principles which would easily reject the claim that California wines are dangerous due to high arsenic levels.
canada goose coats on sale In truth, the arsenic levels are extremely LOW. Far lower than you’ll find in many other foods such as seaweeds (see below), and nowhere near the level that would justify the irrational alarm being demonstrated by the mainstream media. This is all very important to understand so that consumers, court judges and the news media don’t continue to get hoodwinked by unsubstantiated claims of heavy metals contamination. We must learn canada goose uk shop to tell the difference between real, legitimate warnings vs. false warnings over food and beverage safety. canada goose coats on sale
buy canada goose jacket cheap First, here’s why I know more than most about heavy metals in food and beveragesMy qualifications: As Natural News readers know, I’m the science lab director of the Natural News Forensic Food Lab, where we run an Agilent 7700x ICP MS instrument capable of detecting heavy metals down to parts per billion Canada Goose Coats On Sale concentrations. uk canada goose I was the first researcher in the world to buy canada goose jacket cheap document the heavy metals capturing potential of common foods, and the first to document the heavy metal tungsten in rice protein products. I am the developer and patent holder of canada goose Cesium Eliminator, a canada goose black friday sale dietary supplement that binds with radioactive isotopes, and Heavy Metals Defense, a dietary supplement that binds with toxic heavy metals during digestion. I am also the creator of the Low Heavy Metals Verified standard that we use to validate the cleanliness of all the products sold at the Natural News Store. The Natural News Forensic Food Lab operates under ISO 17025 quality rules, with international accreditation pending. You can see the results in this Natural News article. I’m the inventor of the Food Rising 3D printable food production system, and my next invention to canada goose clearance sale be released is a device that removes cheap Canada Goose arsenic from contaminated well water. (You’ll be able to print this device on any 3D printer.) In summary, I know a thing or two about arsenic and other toxic Canada Goose Online elements. I know how to detect them, how to bind them and how to remove them. I’m extremely comfortable in an ICP MS laboratory, spanning all phases of sample collection, preparation, digestion, normalization, analysis and calibration. buy canada goose jacket cheap
canadian goose jacket My laboratory is in the process of achieving ISO 17025 accreditation, and we are already operating under ISO 17025 procedures and quality protocols. (The accreditation process can take up to two years.) canadian goose jacket
Why the lawsuit is based on bogus scienceNow, getting to the substance of the lawsuit, it claims that independent laboratories found 500% more arsenic in California wine than is allowed by the EPA in drinking water.
The EPA sets a maximum level of 10 ppb of arsenic in drinking water. But as the Wine Institute of California correctly points out, “there is no scientific basis for applying the EPA drinking water standard to wine.”
Canada Goose Parka Indeed, that’s true. People don’t drink wine in the same quantities they consume water. And if they did, they would likely die from alcohol induced liver disease long before arsenic became a problem. Canada Goose Parka
The lawsuit claims canada goose clearance some labs found 500% higher levels in some wines. That’s 50 ppb. “PPB” means parts per billion, or 1/1000th of a part per million. So the real question here is this: Is 50 ppb of arsenic in wine “dangerous” like the lawsuit says?
The science hoax revealedTo answer this question, let me share with you a few of my own findings. Using my private ICP MS laboratory, I’ve documented 50,000 ppb of mercury in flu shots (which is typically 0.5mL in volume, delivering approximately 25 micrograms of mercury into body tissues per dose).
Canada Goose sale Predictably, the mainstream media took no interest whatsoever in that finding, as flu shots are the “sacred cows” of modern medicine, and they are automatically declared safe regardless of what toxic heavy metals they contain. It makes you wonder why the media would sound an hysterical, irrational alarm over 50 ppb of arsenic in wine but remain totally silent about 50,000 ppb of mercury in flu shots which are INJECTED into the body (which is far more toxic than merely swallowing something). It turns out that if you’re concerned about arsenic in wine, you should be at least 100 times more concerned about mercury in flu shots. Canada Goose sale
canada goose clearance sale Similarly, I appeared on the Dr. Oz show last year to share findings about 5,000 ppb of lead found in Ginkgo Biloba herbs, and over 5,000 ppb of cadmium in cacao. I’ve documented over 10,000 ppb of lead in mangosteen superfruit powder, and I’ve found that Whole Foods routinely sells organic brown rice protein powder containing anywhere from 1,000 ppb to nearly 2,500 ppb of toxic lead. Whole Foods was even caught misleading customers about these heavy metals in products they sell. canada goose clearance sale
canada goose black friday sale Lead, mercury and cadmium are significantly more toxic than arsenic, gram per gram. Out of the four, in other words, arsenic is the least toxic to humans, especially in its organic form which is more commonly represented in foods than the inorganic form. canada goose black friday sale
canada goose At that website, you’ll see that arsenic under 0.62 ppm is rated A+++. Converting the units, canada goose factory sale that’s the same as 620 ppb canada goose.
