当心 全美国70%的鸡肉含致癌物砷
2015-01-31 | 来源: 美国中文网
美国联邦食品药品管理局表示，该局科学家发现与那些作为对照组的未用3-Nitro®饲养过的鸡相比，使用3-Nitro®饲养过的鸡的肝脏中含有的无机砷水平是有所增加的。
据美国联邦食品药品管理局网站和MSN报道，美国辉瑞公司的子公司Alpharma已自愿决定在全美暂停销售3-Nitro®，并启动相关程序暂停在全美使用3-Nitro®。
美国销售的鸡肉中含有的无机砷是一种有毒的致癌化学物，如果剂量过高就会让人丧命。如果鸡肉中使用了无机砷，则会让这种鸡肉看起来漂亮健康，令人感到震惊的是，全美销售的鸡肉中有超过70%含有这种无机砷。
据《华尔街日报》报道，美国联邦食品药品监督管理局已要求辉瑞公司停止生产含有砷的药物洛克沙胂，经过检测有一半的鸡肉肝脏中含有这种砷。
消费者如果下次不得不购买鸡肉时，得注意些什么呢？
1、如果鸡肉的颜色看起来是不自然的亮粉色，那么请一定要避开不买。
2、确保鸡肉的脂肪是从白色到深黄色，而非灰色或苍白色。
3、检查鸡肉的包装日期。
4、最后，可以考虑选择“有机认证”的鸡肉制品，也许这是对您和您的家人最具安全性的选择。
美国辉瑞制药有限公司（Pfizer, Inc.）是美国一家跨国制药公司，其总部设于纽约。畅销产品包括降胆固醇药立普妥、口服抗真菌药大扶康、抗生素希舒美，以及治阳痿药万艾可等。目前辉瑞药厂是世界上最大的医药企业。尼日利亚卡洛州政府于2007年5月控告辉瑞集团，指控该集团在小孩子身上试验脑膜炎药物“Trovan”，但在过程中出了问题，导致十一名小童死亡，另有数十人变成残障。要求辉瑞赔偿二十亿美元。2009年，辉瑞与尼日利亚达成和解协议，把赔偿金额大幅减至七千五百万美元。
Fowl Play: The FDA Admits That 70% Of U.S. Chicken Contains Cancer-Causing Arsenic

Hungry? Well pull up a chair, the FDA wants to tell you something.
Nearly 70 percent of chicken in the U.S. is plumped up with cancer-causing arsenic. Doesn’t sound very appetizing. There’s good news though, the FDA wants the chemicals removed.
The FDA has asked Pfizer to stop manufacturing the arsenic-containing drug, Roxarsone, that was found in the livers of nearly half of all chicken tested.
According to the Wall Street Journal, “The agency said it recently conducted a study of 100 broiler chickens that detected inorganic arsenic at higher levels in the livers of chickens treated with 3-Nitro compared with untreated chickens … Pfizer said sale of 3-Nitro would be stopped by early July in order to allow animal producers to transition to other treatments.”
This urgent request by the FDA is surprising in itself as the agency has always maintained that the arsenic in chickens is at such low levels that it is safe for consumption, when meanwhile it has been clinically proven to be extremely toxic to human health, causing an array of neurological defects in developing fetuses and young children…Looks like the FDA finally got the memo, and not a moment too soon!
Food transparency is becoming more and more popular. Last year, Subway removed a rubber found in yoga mats from its bread (after a food blogger put the company on blast), and McDonald’s recently revealed the 19 different ingredients in their french fries.

Finally! The FDA Admits That Nearly Over 70% of U.S. Chickens Contain Cancer-Causing Arsenic
Lauren DeCuir2015-01-15
I don’t know about the rest of you, but lately my poultry purchases at my local market have become more and more of a ‘hit-and-miss’ situation, with more ‘misses’ if I’m being honest. As I bite into my homemade chicken nuggets or Coq au Vin (when I’m feeling fancy) I can’t help but feel that the chicken just tastes weird, stringy, just…funny. So a few days ago when I turned on the tube and saw the news headlines stating that the FDA has finally confirmed that chicken meat sold in the USA contains arsenic, my head, and stomach, nearly hit the roof. This cancer-causing toxic chemical, that in high doses could kill you, is actually being added to chicken feed on purpose, giving store-bought chicken the illusion of healthy coloring and plump appearance. Shockingly, this is the case with more than 70 percent of all U.S. chickens! That is just awful!

So, the next time you’re out buying chicken (if you’re not totally put off by it at this point) make sure you look out for the following:
-If the chicken meat is bright pink in color, like in an unnatural way, avoid it at all costs.
-Make sure that the fat content on the chicken is white to deep yellow, not gray or pasty.
-Check the date on the package.
-And finally, aim for “Certified Organic” meat products. It’s probably safest choice for you and your family.
