People who reported eating fast food in the last 24 hours had elevated levels of some industrial chemicals in their bodies, according to a new analysis of data from federal nutrition surveys.
>Though the health consequences of encountering these substances aren’t fully known, scientists have increasingly focused on their effects on health and development, particularly for pregnant women and children. Research in rats has shown that they can disrupt the male reproductive system, and there’s evidence for similar effects in humans.
>The latest research suggests that fast food is a significant source of the chemicals, which may leach into food from machinery used in processing or packaging, or from gloves worn by workers.

Everything is a chemical, what kind of chemical are they talking about? Any known carcinogens? mutagens? Potential reactive oxygen species inducers? enzyme inhibitors? Anything at all? Just vaguely mentioning chemicals is not going to do it.

>Zota and colleagues from GW analyzed data from almost 9,000 people who participated in federal nutrition surveys between 2003 and 2010. Participants answered detailed questions about what they ate in the last 24 hours and gave urine samples that were analyzed for byproducts that indicated the presence of three chemicals. The study was published in the journal Environmental Health Perspectives, which is supported by the National Institutes of Health.
>For two of the three substances Zota examined—phthalates designated as DEHP and DiNP—there was a significant relationship between fast-food intake and exposure. People who ate more fast food had more evidence of phthalates in their urine. The third chemical they measured was Bisphenol A, or BPA, which is commonly used to line aluminum cans. That wasn't significantly correlated with fast-food intake.

Give me a break. Self-reported food studies should always be thrown in the trash and this "study" is confirmation-bias clickbait. How about they prove that there is something actually in fast food instead of just saying "the boogeymonster".

>Results: We observed evidence of a positive, dose-response relationship between fast food intake and exposure to phthalates (p-trend<0.0001) but not BPA; participants with high consumption (≥34.9% TEI from fast food) had 23.8% (95% CI: 11.9%, 36.9%) and 39.0% (95% CI: 21.9%, 58.5%) higher levels of ΣDEHPm and DiNPm, respectively, than non-consumers. Fast food-derived fat intake was also positively associated with ΣDEHPm and DiNPm (p-trend <0.0001).

are you vegan?

thank you anon :3 me in the middle.
>>70845858
Probably because people who eat more fast food are more likely to be poor, and people who are poor are more likely to be exposed to industrial chemicals. It's very unlikely that "da jooz" are putting industrial chemicals in fast food.

Yeah, only stupid people would deny the effects of fast food stop at it's fat and sugar content. We all know. Only human garbage still eats that stuff, nowadays. That's why we're so vehemently against universal healthcare.

>>70848149
Again, it's fucking "self-reported" food intake. There's nothing scientific about it. You could make any number of misleading statistics for any number of politically motivated conclusions using their method of study.
It's like saying vegans are more healthy than the average person while ignoring the average person doesn't exercise and the average vegan does but insinuating its their food choices. Give me a break.

I've lost 7kg in the last 8 weeks and I haven't had fast food or drank any soft drinks in that time
I no longer feel any desire to drink coke.
I do feel a craving for a burger or a pizza or a souvlaki every now and then
The craving isn't hunger, it's psychological
I believe in time it will go away like the soft drinks
I've got another 8-10kg to go

Burgers with cognitive dissonance that are butthurt about the fact that the food they eat is literally killing them slowly.
You guys are as pathetic as a Swede that defends multiculturalism. Just accept that fast food is not food, its like candy that you can treat yourself with on rare occasions.
The reason why your country is so fucking obese and disgusting is because you have guns and couldn't be broken the conventional way so they decided to destroy you with food instead.

If leftist hippie faggots H A T E fast food so much why do they want to raise the minimum wage for fast food workers? Is it because they know it would destroy the businesses if the companies had to increase wages for workers that much? Then you can really only describe Bernie's army of ZOMBIE SUPPORTERS as a group of deranged socialist fruit-juice drinkers and nothing else.
Me? I'm gonna go buy a good, delicious Double Steakhouse from Burger King now because I support free enterprise capitalists and fast food restaurants.

How did you turn this into left vs right?
ITT a bunch of retards who think heavily processed foods are completely harmless. These niggers can't even pronounce half the shit that's in their "food" yet they ingest it on a regular basis. They'd still eat their shitty hot pockets and pop tarts even if you showed them each individual ingredient and the workers who are required to wear hazmat suits when cleaning the equipment that makes the "food".
The actual study: http://ehp.niehs.nih.gov/wp-content/uploads/advpub/2016/4/ehp.1510803.acco.pdf
