Dive Summary:
- A list found in the new book "Rich Food, Poor Food," by Dr. Jayson Calton and Certified Nutritionist Mira Calton, names eight food ingredients used in the U.S. that are banned in other countries, including England, the European Union, Japan, China, Australia, Canada and New Zealand.
- That list includes artificial food dye, olestra, brominated vegetable oil, potassium bromate, azodicarbonamide, preservatives BHA and BHT, growth hormones rBGH and rBST, and arsenic--several of which are already concerns of "natural food" consumers.
- Some of the listed ingredients are found in so many foods, they're almost impossible to avoid, and they have been linked to everything from leaky bowels to brain cancer.
