超市的各種果汁都不要喝
美國消費者報導給果汁製造商一個打擊,他們研究發現25個知名的果汁製造廠牌,有45種果汁將近一半是重金屬過量。
這是Dickson博士所作的研究報告,他們長期研究蘋果、葡萄、梨及果汁混合物等中的鎘、鉛、汞、無機砷等重金屬含量。從2011年開始他們就開始發現重金屬如鉛、汞在葡萄等裡被發現,像是鎘、鉛、鈣與無機砷的重金屬含量都在不斷增加。
另外,美國一項最近的集體訴訟稱,美國超市中最受歡迎的一款飲料——可口可樂公司 的Simply Tropical果汁,宣傳賣點中號稱是全天然健康產品,實則欺騙顧客,其中有毒PFA污染含量比聯邦飲用水建議限制高出數百倍。
可口可樂公司一位發言人表示:「我們知道這起訴訟,主要針對的是我們的Simply Tropical產品。」
如果你購買了Simple Tropical牌子的飲料的,建議先別喝了。
目前這家公司,正在接受調查,等後續結果出來。

The plaintiff, Joseph Lurenz, alleges in his complaint that “in order to capitalize on (this) consumer demand, Simply Orange juice beverages are aggressively marketed to health-focused consumers with the products’ pervasive ‘all natural’ representations prominently displayed across the products’ packaging” despite containing synthetic chemicals that are, by definition, not natural.
