PRAISE FOR FOOD FORENSICS
“Food Forensics definitely is a must-have book for serious-minded researchers, healthcare practitioners, and consumers, plus everyone who eats! I highly recommend it! It’s a virtual ‘encyclopedia’ about toxins we don’t know about in our foods.”
—Activist Post
“I emphatically agree that this book is an important public record of scientific truth. An amazing job on so many levels and an absolute must-read.”
—Michael T. Murray, ND, coauthor of The Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine
“Food Forensics is an incredible, groundbreaking book. Just buy it. And read it. You won’t be sorry. It might be the best decision of your life.”
—Ty Bollinger, author and documentary film producer, TheTruthAboutCancer.com
“Mike Adams has done a great service for all those who are concerned about the quality of what goes into their body. Food Forensics is an essential reality guide to food and water in the 21st century. Mike reveals why relying on federal bureaucrats to protect us from toxic additives and contaminants is a dangerous proposition. While the FDA and EPA are derelict in their duty even with multibillion-dollar budgets, the Health Ranger references and democratizes food safety science for the people so that practical strategies for clean living and safe detoxification are available to us all, right now!”
—Robert Scott Bell, D.A. Hom.
“Radical, irreverent, always provocative. Mike Adams’s new book, Food Forensics, should be required reading for all the Big Food, Big Biotech apologists who continue to poison and mislead us, as well as for activists and concerned consumers.”
—Ronnie Cummins, cofounder and international director of the Organic Consumers Association
“It’s unfortunate, that just as Americans are beginning to wake up to the importance of natural health approaches and a clean diet, Big Food and others are trying to capitalize on this new market by deceiving consumers into buying expensive, heavily contaminated ‘health’ foods. Mike Adams has done a real public service by exposing the deceit and arming consumers with the knowledge to make informed decisions about the food they eat. Food Forensics is a must read for anyone wanting not only to avoid disease, but also to achieve optimal health and wellbeing.”
—Gretchen DuBeau, executive and legal director of the Alliance for Natural Health
“It’s not enough to just read the labels these days. In this book, Mike exposes some of the most prevalent, hidden dangers in your food that he’s identified through years of research and scientific testing—you won’t find any of these listed in the ingredients. But he doesn’t just expose these toxic chemicals, he gives you a roadmap to help you and your family avoid them to confidently live a healthy and happy life.”
—Kevin Gianni, author of Kale and Coffee: A Renegade’s Approach to Health, Happiness, and Longevity
