6 – SHRIMP
To ensure the shrimp’s survival, farmers used unapproved antibiotics and chemicals. 30 shrimp samples purchased in China were sent to a laboratory at the Institute of Environmental and Human Health at Texas Tech University. Result: Shrimp farming used antibiotics (enrofloxacin, chloramphenicol and nitrofuranzone) that were banned in the US and other countries because of their carcinogenic effects.<!–nextpage–>
7 – APPLE JUICE
In 2011, Dr. Mehmet Oz reported that apple juice from China contained very high levels of arsenic. Another study published by Consumer Reports magazine found that 10% of the apple juices examined had arsenic levels that exceeded the standard equivalent. The arsenic contained in the products was not organic, but rather toxic and dangerous.
8 – CHINESE GARLIC
The inspectors also found contaminated garlic from China. Chinese garlic is sprayed liberally with chemicals and this garlic leaves an unpleasant aftertaste, that of a chemical preparation.
