Toxic chemicals

I’ve been following with interest the blog posts and comments that have recently sprung up since the “Food Babe” gave her recent interview to some American Newspaper.

Actually from her picture she looks quite tasty, but wait….. is she not just a bag of skin, full of toxic chemicals? Think about all those nasty amino acids, lipids, carbohydrates, vitamins not to mention peptides, proteins, enzymes, hormones and neurotransmitters (if she has any). Even more worrying is the toxic heavy metal content of her skin bag, iron, zinc, copper, phosphorus, and selenium to mention a few. For God’s sake I wonder how she survives especially carrying around all those calcium contaminated bones all mixed up with hydrochloric acid within the bag of skin. I wonder what her carbon footprint is?

So for those who wish to read more about the Skin Bag see here for an excellent summary, and here for a really great commentary, well worth a read (thanks to Chemjobber for the links) and more recently here.

So this is some entertaining weekly reading for you all.
