DESCRIPTION: The official National Cancer Institute report on the "unacceptable" burden of cancer stemming from industrial chemical pollutants is strongly worded, but lacks sufficient dietary guidance. How contaminated is the American public with chemical pollutants? See yesterday's NutritionFacts.org video-of-the-day, CDC Report on Environmental Chemical Exposure (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/cdc-report-on-environmental-chemical-exposure/). My previous videos on organic foods include Can Pesticides Be Rinsed Off? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/can-pesticides-be-rinsed-off/) and Cancer Fighting Berries (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/cancer-fighting-berries-2/). I also have videos on livestock growth hormones (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/anabolic-steroids-in-meat/) and feed additives (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/drug-residues-in-meat/). For more on processed meat, check out any of my 25 videos on the subject (http://nutritionfacts.org/?s=processed+meat) including When Nitrites Go Bad (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/when-nitrites-go-bad/), Bacon and Botulism (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/bacon-and-botulism/) and Prevention is Better than Cured Meat (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/prevention-is-better-than-cured-meat/). Tomorrow I'll start detailing some foods that may be particularly contaminated. In the meanwhile, please feel free to check out any of the other thousand topics covered on the site (http://nutritionfacts.org/topics/).

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at http://nutritionfacts.org/video/presidents-cancer-panel-report-on-environmental-risk/ and he'll try to answer it!
