CHINA MADE FOOD:
CHOCOLATES : WARNING: IMPORTANT
Everything you
need to know about MELAMINE
Make
sure you read to the very
end - very interesting -
perhaps the best way to tell
where things are made....
China milk poisoning
incidents make everyone afraid to
look at the daily news report.
Everyday, the reports are
changing. No one can clearly tell us what to eat and what not
to eat.
1.What
really is poisoned milk?
It is milk powder
mixed with 'MELAMINE'
What is Melamine used for?
It
is an industrial chemical used in the production of
melawares.
It is also used in
home decoration. ' US resistant
board'
We
all MUST understand that Melamine is used in INDUSTRIAL
PRODUCTION
-
- - - - it CANNOT be eaten.
2.Why is Melamine added
to milk powder?
The
most important nutrient in milk is protein.
And, Melamine
has this same protein that contains
'NITROGEN'
Adding
Melamine into milk reduces the actual milk content required,
and therefore it is cheaper than all milk. So it lowers
the capital required in the production of milk products.
Therefore it earns the business man more profit!
Below
is Melamine; doesn't it look like milk / milk powder?
It
doesn't have any smell, so cannot be
detected.
3.When
was it discovered that it had been added to milk products.
In 2007, US cats
and dogs died suddenly, they found that pet food from
China contained
Melamine.
Early in 2008, in China , an abnormal
increase in infant cases of kidney stones was
reported.
In August
2008, China Sanlu Milk Powder tested for Melamine
Sept. 2008,
the New
Zealand government asked
China to
investigate this problem
Sept. 21, 2008, they found that
many food products in Taiwan tested for
Melamine
4.What
happens when Melamine ingested and
digested?
Melamine remains
inside the kidneys. It forms into stones blocking the tubes.
Pain will be imminent and the person cannot urinate.
Kidney(s) will then swell.
Although
surgery can remove the stones, it causes irreversible kidney
damage.
It can lead to the loss of kidney function and
will require kidney dialysis or lead to death
because of
uremia.
What is dialysis? In fact, it should be called
'blood washing'; it is filtering all of the body's blood into
a machine and then returning the blood back to the
body.
The whole
process takes 4 hours; and it is necessary to have dialysis
once every 3 days for the rest of your life.

dialysis center
A small hole is
required in the arm to insert the sub-dialysis
catheter.
Why is it much
more serious in babies?
A baby's kidneys are so very small
and they drink a
lot of milk powder.
Below: A baby undergoing
dialysis.
China currenty has
13,000 infants hospitalized
It does not
matter how much Melamine a human being ingested (ate) (took).
The important point is: 'MELAMINE CANNOT BE
EATEN!'
5.What
foods are to be avoided?
Foods from
China that contain
dairy products should be avoided.
Remember:
Foods with cream or milk should be avoided.
6.Which
companies are affected?
Hereunder
are the companies affected with Melamine.
7.What
do we do next?
Avoid
the above foods for at least six months.
If you own or
operate a snack bar, a restaurant, or a coffee shops, etc.,
stop selling dairy
products for the meantime.
If you have
infants at home, change to mother's milk or find other
substitutes.
The whole world
is very afraid of "Made In China" 'black-hearted' goods.
Do you know how to differentiate which products are
made in
the USA , or in the
Philippines
, in Taiwan
, or in China ?
Here's How:
The first 3 digits of
the barcode identify the country code
wherein the product was made.
For
Example: ALL barcodes that start
with 690, 691, 692,
etc., . .
up to and including 695 are all MADE IN CHINA
.
Barcodes
starting with 471 are printed on
products Made in Taiwan .
You have a
right to know. But the government and related departments
never inform or educate the public. Therefore we must
educate ourselves,
be vigilant, and RESCUE ourselves.
Today,
Chinese businessmen know that consumers will not select
products
'Made in China '. So, they
make every effort not to show or state the country
of
origin on their products. However,
you can now refer to the
barcode.
DO remember if the first 3 digits are
one of those between 690 and 695 inclusive then it is a
product Made in
China
.
