Food Safety and Irradiation: The radura label

[MaximusDEmentis]

Astronauts haven't starved and they have been eating irradiated foods for years. I would rather eat irradiated food than get E. coli poisoning, a most unpleasant way to die. The vague, irrational fear of new techonology, or the sure unjpleasant sickness and possible death from pathogens which HAVE killed and quickly. I choose irratiation.

No talk of enzymes!! DUMB OMISSION. Listen it's dead food. Your body will punish you for eating food with no enzymes.

THANK YOU!!!! Finally someone telling the truth, and not BS to try to scare people into buying some crap.

This video is just propaganda for the irradiation industry.

Food irradiation is unsafe destroying nutrients (as it destroys pathogens) and kills live foods(bananas won't ripen, onions stop growing shoots, potatoes won't grow eyes, seeds will be dead),

Irradiation also creates radiolytic compunds that have never been in our food before and long term testing is not being done. This method of processing has never been proved safe.

Those favoring irradiation are ignorant or shills.

The author claims that irradiation will be electronic or using Cobalt 60. He leaves out Cesium 123, the waste product of nuclear reactors.

This will be the mainstay of the irradiation industry and it is the most destructive way in which foods can be irradiated.

The nuclear industry will be happy to PAY the food irradiation industry to take the Cesium 123off of its hands. No electricity is used, more savings.

Radioactivity's small bullets destroy molecular bonds of nutrients.

hmmmm... I wonder why the author marked this as spam? I looked up the information michael0156 left here and verified all of it.

If the author has an issue with anything michael0156 has said then he should so state those issues and not hide the information from view.

Food irradiation is safe? Ha, I don't think so. It increases shelf life because all the microbes won't touch irradiated food because there aren't any nutrients left!!

[michael0156]

This is not an accurate comment. Shelf life is increased, which is why the big food industry pushes it.

All nutrients are not destroyed, but a large number of them are. The folks in charge won't tell us how much of the nutrients are altered or destroyed, but they do say it is similar to the damage caused by cooking or pasteurization.

Microbes will touch irradiated food and it can become recontaminated after it has been nuked.

Irradiation creates radiolytic compounds, needs research.

Agree. Our stomaches will be full yet we can still starve to death. Watch for meats that state COLOR IS NOT AN INDICATOR OF FRESHNESS. Of course color is always an indicator for freshness of meat. They place this meat in the organic meat section. Please alert all.
