Cancerous Food Products
I logged in to my mail today and I found something that made me scream. Thing is, I eat instant noodles every night just before I go to sleep. As a matter of fact, I just burped thanks to that "ready in 2 minute dough" that we all know very well. What you call that? Maggi Mee or something? Anyways, according to recent research, it seems that maggi mee causes cancer. I don't know how far it's true but, for once, I actually paid attention to this forwarded mail sent to me. And I don't really consider this a forwarded email. Reason being that it didn't contain the sentence "Please send it to million others and spoil their happiness. If not your grandmother will die of dengue fever." So I'll just consider this an email sent out of good will since it came from a very trustworthy source. Have a read for yourself. My remarks in italics.
INSTANT NOODLES
Make sure you break for at least 3 days after one session of instant noodles before you eat your next packet! Please read the info shared to me by a doctor: My family stopped eating instant noodles more than 5 years ago after hearing about wax coating the noodles. The wax is not just found in the Styrofoam containers but it coats the noodles. This is why the instant noodles do not stick to each other when cooking. If one were to examine the ordinary Chinese yellow noodles in the market, one will notice that in their uncooked state, the noodles are oily. This layer of oil prevents the noodles from sticking together. Wanton noodles in their uncooked state have been dusted with flour to prevent them sticking together. When the hawker cooks the noodles, notice he cooks them in hot water and then rinses them in cold water before cooking them in hot water again. This process is repeated several times before the noodles are ready to be served. The cooking and rinsing process prevents noodles from sticking together. The hawker then lowers the noodles in oil and sauce to prevent the noodles from sticking if they are to be served dry. [I is keeping a close eye on that hawker who does my laksa the next time round. Fucker must have known that mee causes cancer. Gimme so much mee and very little cockles and chili not even spicy enough to make my nipples erect. CCB]
Cooking instructions for spaghetti require oil or butter to be added in the water when boiling the spaghetti to prevent the pasta from sticking together. Otherwise, one gets a big clump of spaghetti! There was an SBC (now TCS) actor some years ago, who at a busy time of his career had no time to cook, resorted to eating instant noodles everyday. He got cancer later on. His doctor told him about the wax in instant noodles. The doctor told him that our body will need up to 2 days to clear the wax. There was also an SIA steward who, after moving out from his mother's house and into his own house, did not cook but ate instant noodles almost every meal. He had cancer, and has since died from it. Nowadays the instant noodles are referred as "Cancer Noodles" [Fucking hell, I bombard 2-3 packets of noodles per day and now only they think of telling me all this? Which wax they use? The Gatsby one that comes in the red, green, blue or the black tube?? And how come no women die one? All talk about men only leh??]
SATAY LOVERS (BARBECUE)
If you all eat satay, don't ever forget to eat the cucumber, because eating Satay together with carbon after barbequing [Got such word in england meh?] can cause cancer. But we have a cure for that. Cucumber should be eaten after we eat the Satay because Satay has carcinogen (a cancer causing element) but cucumber is anti-carcinogenic. So don't forget to eat the cucumber the next time you have satay. Prawns & vitamin C do not get along. Do not eat shrimp/prawn if you have just taken vitamin C pills. This will cause you to die in arsenic intoxication within hours!! [See, this is a good news for someone who doesn't take vitamin C pills and is allergic to prawns.]
Pork awareness: Try this and see whether the pork you bought has worms. This goes with your "Bak Kut Teh" for those who love it. Most men [Again men?] love to eat this so watch out before it's too late. If you pour Coke on a slab of pork, wait a little while. You will see worms crawl out of it. A message from the Health Corporation of Singapore about the bad effects of pork consumption. [I am so gonna try this tomorrow morning.]
Pig's bodies contain many toxins, worms and latent diseases. Although some of these infestations are harbored in other animals, modern veterinarians say that pigs are far more predisposed to these illnesses than other animals. This could be because pigs like to scavenge and will eat any kind of food. Including dead insects, worms, rotting carcasses, excreta including their own, garbage, and other pigs. Influenza [This means flu, the 'cheem' version] is one of the most famous illnesses which pigs share with humans. These illnesses are harbored in the lungs of pigs during the summer month and tend to affect pigs and human in the cooler months.
Sausage contains bits of pigs' lungs, so those who eat pork sausage tend to suffer more during epidemics of influenza. Pig meat contains excessive quantities of histamine and imidazole compounds, which can lead to itching and inflammation, growth hormone which promotes inflammation and growth, Sulphur containing mesenchymal mucus which leads to swelling and deposits of mucus in tendons and cartilage resulting in arthritis and rheumatism. For example, Sulphur helps cause firm human tendons and ligaments to be replaced by the pig's soft mesenchymal tissues and degeneration of human cartilage.
Eating pork can also lead to Gallstones and Obesity, probably due to its high cholesterol and saturated fat content. The pig is the main carrier of the Taenie Solium worm, which is found in its flesh. These tapeworms are found in human intestines with greater frequency in nations where pigs are eaten. This type of tapeworm can pass through the intestines and affect many other organs, and is incurable once it reaches beyond a certain stage.
One in six people in the US and Canada has richinosis from eating trichina worms, which are found in pork. Many people have no symptoms to warm them of this, and when they do, they resemble symptoms of many other illnesses. These worms are NOT noticed during meat inspections. [Now I have a reason to laugh at my chinkies who make fun of how small my calves are and about how good pork is for the calf. Laugh la laugh. We'll see who'll panic tomorrow.]
SHAMPOO
Cancer-causing substances were found in shampoos. Go home and check your shampoo. Change before it's too late. Check the ingredients listed on your shampoo bottle, and see they have a substance by the name of Sodium Laureth Sulfate, or simply SLS. This substance is found in most shampoos. Manufacturers use it because it produces a lot of foam and is cheap. But, the fact is, SLS is used to scrub garage floors and it is very strong! It is also proven that it can cause cancer in the long run. This is no joke. [So from hereafter, I is breaking my own record. I is not gonna bathe for a month. Better not take the risk. Wait next month someone will tell me soap contains leukemia.]
Shampoos like Vo5, Palmolive, Paul Mitchell, L'Oreal, the new Hemp Shampoo from Body Shop contains the SLS substance. The first ingredient listed [which means it is the single most prevalent ingredient] in Clairol's Herbal Essences is Sodium Laureth Sulfate. Therefore, I called one company, and I told them their product contains a substance that will cause people to have cancer. They said "Yeah we knew about it but there is nothing we can do about it because we need that substance to produce foam." [I is safe. I use Pantene]
By the way, Colgate toothpaste also contains the same substance to produce the "bubbles". They said they are going to send me some information. Research has shown that in the 1980s, the chance of getting cancer is 1 out of 8000. Now, in the 1990s, the chances of getting cancer is 1 out of 3,which is very serious. Therefore, I hope that you will take this seriously and pass this on to all the people you know and hopefully we can stop giving ourselves cancer-causing agents. [Roger that, Sir]
