In this episode of The Martin Memo, host Martin uncovers the stark double standards in food ingredients between the U.S. and Europe.
He highlights additives like titanium dioxide, potassium bromate, BHA/BHT, Red Dye No. 3, and others, banned abroad for potential links to cancer, DNA damage, and endocrine disruption, yet still common in American snacks, breads, and sodas.
Next, he exposes the “silent killers” lurking in the U.S. diet, including ultra-processed foods, high-fructose corn syrup, inflammatory seed oils, and estrogen-mimicking compounds that may contribute to hormonal imbalances.
Drawing inspiration from the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) movement, Martin shares practical steps to take control: read labels diligently, choose whole and organic foods, avoid plastics and heavily processed soy, cook at home, and advocate for better regulations.
The episode ends with an answer to a listeners question and a special share of Martin’s ceremonial speech from his public speaking class.
