The European Commission on Endocrine Disruption has also listed BHA as a Category 1 priority substance, based on evidence that it interferes with hormone function [3]. Long-term exposure to high doses of BHT is toxic in mice and rats, causing liver, thyroid and kidney problems and affecting lung function and blood coagulation [4].
BHT can act as a tumour promoter in certain situations [5]. Some people need to believe the family environment that a restaurant brags about. They need somewhere to take them. They want to take Mama to a nice restaurant once in a while.
Well, You have no idea what they buy or the ins and outs of preparation everywhere you've eaten. I saw a video once of a lady screaming at a FF employee because she asked for fresh food. To me, nothing they could do to it would make it fresh. It came in on a truck from a warehouse after sitting somewhere else for however long.
But her thoughts on the subject were obviously different. I could blame her parents, but they probably had to compete with what her friends wanted to do and eat as she grew older. It's a large web. If you understand where I am coming from. That was one ingredient in one product. Which is a milestone. But it is one of several milestones in an industry that donates in order to atone. Like so many others.
I just don't like when children are the targets. Nancy June 29, AM. Jessica I am sure exercise is great. But there are children who eat cereal everyday for breakfast. In their little bodies that are growing it can't be good in any amount. Now every cereal you pick up on the shelf is has genetic engineering. Check it out. Mark March 3, PM. Danielle W. June 13, PM. Brenda January 4, AM. A lot of us are scared of it and a lot of other chemicals but wouldn't know about it if people weren't informing us.
Glad to hear you did your research and it is your choice to eat it. None of the chemicals we are eating will do any harm in small doses by themselves but several of them together over decades may.
If you look at increases in dementia type diseases, cancer and Autism in relation to the increased use of chemicals you have to know there are some that are dangerous to our health. We need information to make intelligent choices. Mark February 17, AM. I dont think ypu should be eating foods with artificial lab manumactured componemts on a regular basis, thats where i agree you might have problems in the future.
Jeff January 19, AM. Mark: I find it interesting that you claim that there are people who want to eat "bht", after all, it's an additive to preserve freshness and if there is any empirically validated scientific evidence that BHT has the potential to harm one's health, which in case there is, then, we must take that into consideration, as our medical health profession is based on scientific evidence.
What would make sense is that if there are those who want to "eat bht" as you put it, then perhaps they can sell BHT to those people in its synthetic form. That might be perhaps more logical than suggesting that there would be any significant majority of persons who would choose to have BHT as the preservative in the cereal when others would work as well: they are purchasing the cereal for its taste and not its choice of a preservative. It shouldn't matter one way or antoher right?
Out of curiosity why do you want it in your cereal? I never said people "want" to eat bht. Selling bht would not be practical in my opinion, mostly because that's where there really might become a problem in over consumption leading to health problems. It's up to a consumer to be aware of their own personal preferences whether they care about bht or not. I'm not trying to say that any people who want bht free options have a bad opinion at all, I really just think that there is a fine line between worrying about being healthy me , and worrying too much about preservatives in general.
James Bosso July 13, PM. There are people who would choose to 'eat' BHT. A book from the late 70's or early 80's was written by some masters level students called "life extension". I think they sold the rights to the name to a store chain. You may have seen one of their stores. This young couple promoted consumption of BHT.
They thought that we did not get enough of it in our food supply. They thought that this and other synthetic chemicals would assist the body and extend our lives. They noted that BHT was an alternative treatment for herpes and that the suspected mechanism was exposing the underlying structure of the virus to the body's defenses by stripping off the outer coating.

I'd rather see activism on whole, green, organic foods A to Z at prices everyone can afford. I'd rather see activism on cleaning up and stopping the damage of our oceans as they, the oceans, suck a lot of CO2 out of the atmosphere cleansing what we breathe, make it so we have water on land so we can eat, farm, and drink, and keep the weather "normal" which hasn't been the case for years, and finally, helps to keep temperatures normal for whatever area including desert, the arctics, temperate, sub-tropical, and tropical.
Sylvia Earle said, "Without the blue there will be no green. Without the green there will be no us". We are extremely tied to the oceans. The water and salt content in our bodies is almost equivalent to that of the oceans. Sharks are our one greatest hope of finding a cure for cancer though few know about it. Now, that reason alone should be enough incentive to be an activist for the oceans especially when approximately 75 million shark are caught, have their fins removed, and dumped back into the ocean alive to painfully drown or bleed out Plus because of that, sharks are apex predators which means they help keep the ocean balanced.
An unbalanced ocean is an ocean in deep trouble and therefore, so are we. So after knowing how important oceans are to our well being and there are few activists saying anything about that what do you think is more important- BHT or getting our oceans back to a healthy state?
Eating clean green food, breathing clean air, having clean water, having a healthy land with normal weather and temperatures, and the medicines we need or BHT? In my opinion, if someone wants to be an activist or something why not that and green, organic foods? After all, we get a lot of foods and medicines from the ocean. Give me a break. That's nit picking in my book. Why not go for something that's really important? Like really jumping on the band wagon to save our world and our people.
Thanks for reading. David May 4, PM. Tara June 18, PM. Wouldn't that be a fear of chemotherapy? Because I'll tell you, as a cancer patient that has endured brain surgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy to combat a malignant brain tumour, while I don't have a fear of chemotherapy, I do have a fear of ingesting carcinogenic foods and chemicals.
CroSel August 31, PM. Thank you Tara for your well supported comment. It's enlightening to know that BHT causes cancer in Hamsters. Bare in mind, studies such as: Will BHT cause cancer in human beings most likely is not condoned due to ethical and legal reasons of experimenting on humans.
Therefore, I would not take this research lightly and I think it's fair to extrapolate it to human beings since we're organisms as well. Isabella Kerr September 16, PM. I have been shocked with some opinions. I guess some people do not do a research. I am going to switch to other low sugar brands. Simply I do not like sweet food. Unfortunately I have had a skin cancer that showed that I am prone to have a cancer.
I am sorry I did not do my research earlier. Although there were only limited studies that evaluated the effect of BHT on the skin, the available studies, along with the case literature, demonstrate no significant irritation, sensitization, or photosensitization. Recognizing the low concentration at which this ingredient is currently used in cosmetic formulations, it was concluded that BHT is safe as used in cosmetic formulations.
