The truth about the harm of white flour. Than bleached flour?

 

It would seem that there is nothing easier, milled grain, there's your flour. But, such a poorly stored flour. Therefore, manufacturers cleanse it from the most useful substances to humans. A huge number of vitamins, minerals and much needed fiber, it all goes to waste. Remains almost one starch. But that's not all. In order flour was quite white, it is bleached with substances, which will be discussed in more detail.

Note that these same substances are used in washing powders and household chemicals for disinfection and bleaching. Fact, makes you wonder about whether or not to buy bread in the shops, or better to cook it yourself, at home.

POTASSIUM BROMATE is an inorganic compound, potassium salt, highly soluble in water. In the classification of food additives is denoted as Е924.

Animal studies have shown the possibility of occurrence of a cancer of a thyroid gland and kidneys in rats and mice. At high temperatures, what happens when baking, potassium bromate is transferred to the potassium bromide, which is harmless. Bread from "flour bronirovanii" is lush and unnaturally white.

Potassium bromate is banned for food industry in Russia, the EU, China, Brazil, Canada. Licensed in the United States.

 



CHLORINE DIOXIDE is a gaseous substance that has a characteristic odor, inorganic compound of oxygen and chlorine, a powerful antimicrobial agent. Explosive. In the classification of food additives is denoted as Е926.

After treatment of flour with chlorine dioxide completely removed Tocopherols (vitamin E), essential fatty acids. Studies in mice showed that when fed bread made from flour treated with chlorine dioxide, the animals experienced E-avitaminosis.

Supplement Е926 allowed in Russia, is used for disinfection and purification of drinking water.

BENZOYL PEROXIDE – an organic compound of the aromatic series, a white powdery substance. In the classification of food additives is denoted as Е928.

Used for bleaching flour and as an improver in the bakery. Treated with benzoyl peroxide flour more crumbly and white. Е928 often used in the production of oils for deodorization and in the manufacture of cheese and for the treatment of acne in the form of creams and ointments. In its pure form is a potent carcinogen (a substance that provokes the appearance of malignant tumors).

Permitted in Russia for use in the baking industry.

AMMONIUM PERSULFATE – organically active compound, ammonium salt. In the classification of food additives is denoted as Е923.

Has the third class of danger. Inhalation can cause severe asthmatic attack that are dangerous to skin and eyes.

Ammonium persulfate is banned in food production in all countries of the world, including in Russia. But sometimes used as a baking powder for bleaching of flour, in the manufacture of soft drinks and confectionery, as poziruuschie substance.

ALLOXAN – a compound that is produced by the oxidation of uric acid.

Alloxan inhibits the action of many enzymes. Causes necrosis of the islets of Langerhans (clusters of special cells of the pancreas), necrosis of the renal tubules and other, less striking changes in the pituitary, thymus, adrenals and thyroid in experimental animals. It is used to produce experimental diabetes in animals further study of various drugs.

It is believed that the alloxan is not so much toxic to humans as to animals.

It turns out that white flour is essentially starch, which at best would be useless to the person, at worst even dangerous. Of course, it is best to use whole grain flour. Or at least to reduce the use of products made with white flour.

Take, please, common sense!
