The FDA has proposed banning a popular food product used in MANY consumer foods.
It’s called BVO, and it’s in more American-made products than you might think!
Brominated Vegetable Oil (BVO) is a food additive that is used to help emulsify citrus-flavored soft drinks, preventing the flavoring ingredients from separating during distribution. BVO contains bromine atoms which are bonded to the triglycerides that are derived from vegetable oil.
The concern with BVO stems from the presence of bromine, which is an element found in brominated flame retardants. Some research has suggested that excessive consumption of BVO can lead to bromine accumulation in the body, potentially causing toxic effects. These effects may include neurological disorders, altered thyroid hormones, and fertility issues. The risk is particularly associated with high or prolonged intake of beverages containing BVO.
Due to these health concerns, BVO has been subject to scrutiny and regulatory action in various parts of the world:
- European Union: BVO is banned as a food additive in the EU. Products containing BVO cannot be sold legally within its member countries.
- India: India has also banned the use of BVO in food products.
- Japan: Japan does not approve BVO for use in food products.
Meanwhile, the United States has known it is dangerous since the 1970s but has “allowed its conditional use”.
Unreal:
- United States: The FDA has BVO listed as an interim food additive, which means it is permitted on a conditional basis pending additional study, since the 1970s. However, due to consumer concerns, some beverage manufacturers have voluntarily phased out the use of BVO in their products.
What is "BVO"? Here's why the FDA is considering a ban on an additive in certain soft drinks: https://t.co/z6XyyyHnS3

Here’s more from Breitbart:
Federal officials on Thursday proposed banning the use of a certain vegetable oil in foods due to safety concerns.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said it wants to “revoke the regulation authorizing the use of brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food.”
Officials concluded the use of the oil in food is no longer considered safe, as studies found it could possibly cause adverse effects in people.
The FDA’s announcement continued:
BVO is a vegetable oil that is modified with bromine. It is authorized by the FDA for use in small amounts to keep the citrus flavoring from separating and floating to the top of some beverages. In 1970, the FDA determined BVO was no longer “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) and began overseeing its use under our food additive regulations. Over the years many beverage makers reformulated their products to replace BVO with an alternative ingredient, and today, few beverages in the U.S. contain BVO.
…
Recent toxicology studies conducted in collaboration with the NIH have now given us conclusive scientific evidence to support our proposal to remove the FDA’s food additive authorization for BVO.
According to Middlesex Health, there has been controversy regarding the use of the oil for many years, and some other countries have already banned it from being used in food.
The site’s article said the ingredient bromine can irritate a person’s skin and their mucous membranes.
“Long-term exposure can cause neurologic symptoms such as headache, memory loss, and impaired balance or coordination,” the site reads.
Anyone else tired of being served poison?
Makes me furious!

Way to go FDA….only about 60 years too late!
Here is the full FDA Press Release:
Today, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration proposed to revoke the regulation authorizing the use of brominated vegetable oil (BVO) in food. The agency concluded that the intended use of BVO in food is no longer considered safe after the results of studiesExternal Link Disclaimer conducted in collaboration with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) found the potential for adverse health effects in humans.

Over the years many beverage makers reformulated their products to replace BVO with an alternative ingredient, and today, few beverages in the U.S. contain BVO.
The FDA prioritizes its review of chemicals in food based on risk, science, and regulatory authority. Although BVO has a long history of use in foods and was at one time considered GRAS, we have continued to study it to understand any potential health impacts. Recent toxicology studiesExternal Link Disclaimer conducted in collaboration with the NIH have now given us conclusive scientific evidence to support our proposal to remove the FDA’s food additive authorization for BVO. The proposed action is an example of how the agency monitors emerging evidence and, as needed, conducts scientific research to investigate safety related questions, and takes regulatory action when the science does not support the continued safe use of additives in foods.
We recognize that California recently took steps to ban the use of four food ingredients, including BVO, in that state. The agency is continuously reviewing and reassessing the safety of a variety of chemicals in food to ensure the science and the law support their safe use in food, including all four ingredients that are part of the recent California law. In fact, the FDA is currently reviewing the color additive regulations authorizing the use of FD&C Red No. 3 in ingested drugs and foods (including dietary supplements) under the Delaney Clause of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act, which, in relevant part, prohibits the FDA from approving a color additive that is ingested if it causes cancer in animals or humans when ingested. A decision from the FDA is forthcoming.
While these reviews take time, one of the key reasons for the proposed Human Foods Program (HFP) transformation currently underway is to enhance our review of food chemical safety. The proposed HFP would include the creation of the Office of Food Chemical Safety, Dietary Supplements and Innovation where we intend to develop a faster and more nimble process for evaluating chemicals in the food supply.
YOU KNEW IT WAS #UNSAFE IN 1970 YET YOU HEARTLESS #MOFOS😡#FDA🤬CONTINUED TO SUBJECT US TO IT FOR 53YRS🤑💰https://t.co/kqkcUz7Aug#Brominatedvegetableoil, or #BVO, an additive found in some sodas and sports drinks, will be banned in the US under an FDA proposal issued Thursday

How many different ways can they find to poison us?
This reminds me of:
Nationwide Recall Of Dry Shampoo — Cancer Causing Ingredient Found!
Are any of you all tired of being poisoned by Big Business?
How is it that they keep accidentally incorporating a bunch of cancer-causing ingredients into everything they sell?
And then they act like they don’t know how this keeps happening!
They do it to what you eat…
They do it to what you put on your skin…
And they even do it to what you spray on your hair and breath in!
Yup, that’s the latest.
Poisoning you by all 5 of your physical senses it seems.
I’m sick of it — and I have a solution for you down below in this article, so keep reading if you are sick of it too and you’d like to break the cycle.
But first, here’s the news:
BREAKING: Nationwide recall of 20 dry shampoo products!

Oh 20 brands you say!
Wow, so that’s a lot.
Just 20 “oopsies” huh?
How did that cancer-causing stuff get in here…we just can’t figure it out!
So which brands are offenders?

From Glamour, you gotta love the part I bolded below — we just can’t figure out how that carcinogen got in there!
Last week the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announced a nationwide dry shampoo recall due to “elevated levels of benzene” in dozens of aerosol products. Recalled items included Dove, Nexxus, Suave, Rockaholic, Bed Head, and Tresemmé dry shampoo canisters produced before October 2021.
This isn’t the first time benzene contamination prompted a cosmetics recall in recent history. In December 2021, Procter & Gamble recalled aerosol dry shampoo and conditioner spray products from Pantene, Aussie, and Herbal Essences due to detected benzene.
Is benzene dangerous?
Benzene is a chemical carcinogen. However, context is key: People breathe in low levels of the compound every day. “Products like cigarettes, gasoline, glues, paints, and certain plastics contain benzene,” Reid Maclellan, MD, director of Proactive Dermatology Group and founder and CEO of artificial intelligence health care company Cortina, tells Glamour. And it’s true: From car emissions to gasoline while filling your lawnmower, there are countless opportunities to expose oneself to benzene on a day-to-day basis. Even Banana smoothies have been found to be contaminated with it, adds Hans Plugge, a principal who specializes in toxicology at Safer Chemical Analytics LLC.
Relatively consistent exposure does not mean benzene is risk-free, however. According to Dr. Maclellan, short-term symptoms to high benzene exposure can include dizziness, confusion, drowsiness, vomiting, stomach irritation, or headache, and long-term effects could lead to cancer, anemia, and low blood cell counts as benzene kills white blood cells. He also says that if you have experienced any symptoms stated above, to seek medical attention. However, Plugge clarifies that it’s benzene only in high concentrations that is known to be carcinogenic and cause anemia.
“The level of exposure determines the risk,” he says. “The levels in the product described in these studies are very low and exposure is even lower.”
Is the amount of benzene in the dry shampoo canisters cause for concern?
How and why did benzene end up in the dry shampoo?
The source of the contamination remains unclear. “The spray cans’ propellant has been identified as the source of benzene in the dry shampoo, and they are working with the manufacturer to get to the bottom of this,” Dr. Maclellan says, though he clarifies that companies are not putting benzene into their products on purpose, since the harmful effects of these chemicals are universally recognized.
Now, as I promised….let’s talk solutions.
I NEVER leave you with just the problem.
You know I’ve got the solution!
Can I give you a much better option?
How about an American-made and manufactured company that has been in business for over 37 years and has NEVER paid one single dollar over a product liability claim?
Why?
Because they’re products are SAFE.
Gee, imagine that….what a novel concept!
In fact, this is EXACTLY why I started my new Mission back in February.
The new mission is simply this: to help build out the Parallel-Economy.
Because here’s what I realized…
You THINK you have a choice between all these companies listed below in the circle, but what most people don’t realize is they’re all owned by only 11 companies.
11.
Interesting number.
Will probably be even less than that in the future when these merge even further.
It’s an ILLUSION of choice.
The same goes for all your media…
It’s just an ILLUSION of different choices, but owned by these 6 companies:
Now back to my Mission and my solution.
I figured I would eventually need to build a Parallel-Economy from the ground up.
I knew that would be a ton of work.
So it was on my back-burner.
In fact, it had been there on my back-burner since about 2016.
Until suddenly, in January of 2023, I connected with a company I had never heard of before….but they’re MASSIVE.
They’ve been in business for over 35 years and they’re a VERY pro-American, pro-Liberty, pro-Conservative values company!
They’re an American based, Made-In-America, warehoused-in-America, shipped-from-America company!
In fact, they’re the last private, family-owned, pro-American consumer goods company left in America NOT owned by those 11 companies I showed you above.
Oh, and what if I told you the products are BETTER and often CHEAPER than what you get from those 11 companies above?
Yes, for real.
And their founder was once placed on Barack Hussein Obama’s list of the Top 10 most “Dangerous Conservatives” in America?
(a list I one day hope to make myself!)
Once I learned all of that, I knew I no longer had to build this from the ground-up by myself, I simply needed to partner with this awesome company to help them get the word out.
So on top of being the last Family-owned major consumer goods manufacturer not part of the Big-11, comparable or often lower prices, supporting American jobs and families, here’s the part that ties in to the main point of this article”.
Non-toxic products!
That means no Arsenic, Cadmium, and Lead in their Spices!
Which really, if we’re being honest, should be the bare minimum for everyone, right?
Stunning I even have to tell you that, but I guess I do!
But it also means no Red Dye 40 or flouride in the toothpaste or chemicals in the cleaning products, or Deet in the mosquito repellant.
What novel concepts, right?
Oh, and Black Angus beef, pasture raised on hundreds of thousands of acres.
Free roaming with plenty of open air between all the cattle.
Grass fed.
No hormones and no antibiotics. Never!
Oh, and it’s CHEAPER than Omaha Steaks!
But that’s a whole other topic!
Sound good to anyone else?
Me too!
The reason you’ve never heard of them is because it’s Invite Only.
I can get you in, but you can’t just go sign up.
They only want people on the same mission to join and they’re happy to say “no” to the Far-Left Libs!
They’ve been doing it for 37 years and it’s been working great.
Everyone gets a personal, white glove, concierge customer service support to get you access to everything they have.
Imagine that!
No call centers from India.
Just real, friendly, helpful and NICE Americans helping Americans!
Wow, like going back in a time-machine.
So it is Invite only…and good thing you know someone that has the invites….(me!).
If you’d like to find out more and get a FREE personal invite, just go here and tell them Noah sent you: https://SwitchWithNoah.com
It’s the real deal, and because they don’t raise the Black Angus like the big companies do, they may have the SHUT OFF invites if they grow too fast.
So if you want in, let me know soon.
There’s only one pro-American, American made and manufactured, chemical free, toxin free, hormone free, company left….and I’m teaming up with them to FIGHT BACK!
Who’s with me?
Watch this:
As I said, it’s Invite Only and the invite is completely free!
In fact, I’ve assembled a team of patriots who will personally get you invited and signed up….if you want in.
Americans Helping Americans.
Patriots Helping Patriots.
It’s called “Patriot Switch” and I think the name says it all.
Folks, we don’t have many strongholds left.
This is one.
And I’m all in.
If you’d like to find out more and get a FREE personal invite, just go here: https://SwitchWithNoah.com
Tell them Noah sent you and I promise you will get a personal call, text or email.
Don’t freak out when you do.
And make sure you tell them you are interested in the Black Angus beef too!
I know I tend to get concerned when I get messages from numbers I don’t recognize, but if you request a Free Invite (Link here: https://SwitchWithNoah.com) you WILL have someone from my Inner Circle reach out to you….so be ready!
These are awesome people and I think you’ll love getting a chance to talk with them.
And they’ll help get you all set up.
Who’s with me and who’s ready to stop eating Arsenic, Cadmium, and Lead?
Your friend,
– Noah
p.s. Since everyone gets personal attention, we will take these in the order in which they come in. So if you are excited, ask for your invite now or you might be far down on the list. I have a great team, but they can only do so much and they’ll work on a first-come, first-served basis.
