Rain, Rain: Deja Vu All Over Again

Here’s and interesting rainy day article for you, Maybe this is whats wrong with the anti hunting anti other humans, wolf hugging tree hugging cult;

” Soy-based foodstuffs like veggie burgers and nutrition bars are a go-to source of protein and generally considered “health foods.” We eat them because we believe they are a healthy alternative to meat and because soy foods have a reputation for being produced in a more environmentally friendly or sustainable fashion than animal sources of protein.”

“But the benefits of highly processed forms of soy protein—to people or the environment— was called into question by a November 2010 report from the Cornucopia Institute, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit which claims that non-organic soy protein is commonly extracted from the soybeans by literally bathing the beans in n-hexane, a chemical byproduct of petroleum refining.”

The Hazards of Hexane

” The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency classifies hexane as a neurotoxin affecting the nervous system of humans and lab animals, based on effects of chronic inhalation. Chronic workplace exposure increases risk for polyneuropathy, a neurological disorder characterized by muscle weakness, nerve damage and visual impairment. The agency cites no studies that have yet looked into the effect of oral exposure, and studies are also lacking to determine hexane’s carcinogenic potential except for one which linked brain tumors to workers exposed to hexane and other chemicals at a petrochemical plant.”

” Hexane is also regarded as a hazardous air pollutant because it contributes to ground-level ozone, a component of smog. According to Cornucopia, 19 million pounds were released into the air in 2009 from the processing of soybeans and other grains. Furthermore, hexane is highly explosive and has injured or killed both plant workers and tanker truck drivers.”

” The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has not set any restriction on the maximum level of hexane allowed in soyfoods, nor are manufacturers required to measure residues in foods, so how much hexane humans could be exposed to through consumption of processed soyfoods is unknown. The European Union, however, adopted a directive in 2009 targeting residues of solvents used in food processing and set a hexane limit of 10 ppm (parts per million) for foods containing defatted soy protein products.”

We’ll have to inject HEXANE into these hotwolf sandwiches me thinks, keep em stupid I say.

Well, if we end up in the stone age pounding one another on the head with clubs, over a small food supply, thats pretty stupid, or wait, thats re-wild – erness.. You know, evolved.
