Yesterday, foreign and Hong Kong media reported that the Center for Science in the American public (CSPI) released a research report, said the Coca-Cola and Pepsi and other beverages are widely used in food should be strictly prohibit the use of caramel, because these substances is very may be carcinogenic. In response, Coca-Cola said its caramel color used by the company and does not cause cancer.
According to yesterday, the British "Daily Mail", Hong Kong, "Lianhe Zaobao" and other reports, CSPI noted that Coca-Cola and Pepsi contained in a component may lead to cancer risk, should be "disabled." They raised concerns about the ingredient is a synthetic pigment --- caramel brown. The researchers pointed out that this pigment can lead to thousands of people suffering from cancer.
CSPI noted that this artificial caramel coloring, and use at home to cook a pan melt the sugar into caramel different, it is made of sugar, ammonia and nitrite in the chemical reaction under high pressure and temperature from the process, will produce 2-MI, and 4-MI of two chemicals. U.S. researchers found that 2-MI, and 4-MI in mice caused lung cancer, liver cancer, thyroid cancer or leukemia. CSPI urged the Food and Drug Administration, should be prohibited in the dark drink the use of ammonia caramel, soft drinks obesity is a major health threat to patients. Sugar and ammonia will produce a chemical reaction caused by carcinogens, and lead to cancer-causing thousands of Americans.
In response, this response to yesterday's Coca-Cola China, said: "Our drinks are completely safe."
"CSPI is irresponsible drinks in a statement questioned our use of caramel in the security, and no reason to provoke consumer concern about cancer. In fact studies have shown that our products will not be used in caramel cause cancer. "side said Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola contains only a reference to the compound by CSPI quality, the quality of this compound occurs in the cooking" browning reaction "(a common food discoloration), which substances in many foods and beverages contain.

A. deep-fried foods: cardiovascular disease culprit (fried starch); containing carcinogenic substances; destruction of vitamins, protein denaturation.
B. pickled foods: high blood pressure, kidney burden is too heavy, leading to nasopharyngeal carcinoma; of mucosal system (harmful to the stomach); easy to get ulcers and inflammation.
C. Processing of meat products (meat, meat floss, sausages, etc.): one containing the three carcinogens nitrite (preservative and color effects); contains a lot of preservatives, increased burden on the liver.
D. biscuits (excluding low-temperature baking and whole wheat crackers): food flavor and color too much burden on the liver function; serious damage to vitamins; too many calories, low nutrients.
E. cola soft drinks categories of food: containing phosphoric acid, carbonic acid, the body will take away a lot of calcium; sugar content is too high, a sense of fullness after drinking, affect the normal appetite.
F. convenience foods (instant noodles and puffed food): high salt, preservatives, flavors (liver damage); only calories and no nutrition.
G. canned food (including fish and fruit): destruction of vitamins, protein denaturation; too many calories, low nutrients.
H. plum preserves food (preserved): with one of the three carcinogens nitrite (preservative and color effects); salt is too high, containing preservatives, flavors (liver damage).
I. frozen dessert foods (ice cream, popsicles, and various ice cream): creamy easily cause obesity; high sugar content, of meals.
J. grilled food: with a large number of "Triphenyl Sibing Beep" (the three major cancer-causing substances); a grilled chicken = 60 cigarettes toxicity; lead to charring of protein denaturation (increased kidney and liver burden.)

Carcinogens in the House of Flying Daggers
Bright and clean office, it could be perilous. All kinds of modern equipment is enclosed to this crowded space with a variety of pollutants continuously sown, of which some notorious for hidden carcinogens. The face of these threats we may not choose this environment, but we can change some details of the work, so that our body is exposed to the least. Attention to health care, health never came back head.
First, you should use a variety of desk altered agent, scavenger ink, print, modify the solution, all containing benzene, mercury and carcinogenic chemicals are chemicals. Usually at work among these changes should minimize the use of liquid, even though they often disguise fragrant.
Second, you are tireless work of the fountain next to it is another source of cancer. Studies have shown repeatedly boiling water will produce carcinogenic nitrite. The few public drinking fountains will switch off the heating was dedicated. Drink water every day in this state, to cause any potential problems. Should cultivate the habit of drinking fountains carry off.
Third, the beautiful colorful ceramic glass which is often joined in the firing of many heavy metals, which are lurking in the beaker of heavy metals to become the nearest carcinogens. Experts suggest that the best choice as a daily glass enamel cup, so as not to bring "a cup." Also note that some of the high quality disposable paper cups and other substances in the ink are also carcinogenic.
Fourth, gentle printer, copier is actually dangerous elements. Among these machines need toner, carbon black may be used as raw material, which contains more carbon containing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and dimethyl nitramine series of other substances, which are carcinogenic famous standings Henjiao Se. Therefore, the time should try and copy machines to distance, and do not arrange station next to the printer or copier.
Fifth, in the office are often dealing with the paper, all kinds of printing paper, writing paper and even toilet paper in the bathroom, if not from the proper channels to enter the branded goods, are likely to join a large amount of fluorescent brightener, so that the white paper more brighter, and these brighteners have some carcinogenic.
Sixth, actually, you need not envy the boss's office that looks posh, in fact, the more luxurious decoration, the materials used may be the more carcinogens, such as a variety of stone, fabrics, etc.; and in which we live normal office environment which will also emit benzene, formaldehyde and other harmful substances, we can only make the office as ventilation, dilution of the concentration of these toxic substances.
