SODIUM NITRITE,HOT DOGS , WILD PIGS. AND YOUR HEALTH.
The chemical, known as sodium nitrite, is a cancer-causing "color fixer" and meat preservative added to processed meat products to give them a pink hue that consumers mistake for being "fresh." When sodium nitrite combines with the hydrochloric acid (HCl) found in stomach acid, it forms cancer-causing nitrosamines.
These nitrosamines go on to directly promote pancreatic cancer, colo-rectal cancer, leukemia, brain tumors and other cancers throughout the body Sodium nitrite is the reason why processed meats drastically raise the risks of cancer, heart disease and diabetes.
Eating sodium nitrite, in other words, is a lot like eating a slow death in the form of cancer while in feral pigs, the same chemical kills quite rapidly. A paper posted online by the USDA states, " The toxin, sodium nitrite, a common meat preservative that prevents botulism, had previously been shown to be a quick-acting and low-residue toxicant for feral pigs in Australia and has since been patented."
A preservative chemical that's routinely added to hot dogs, beef jerky, bacon and breakfast sausage is now being deployed by government researchers as a fatal bait to poison wild hogs to death. Development of the deadly hog poison is being pursued by none other than the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the same agency that legalizes the same toxic chemical to be used in processed meat products approved for human consumption.
