Protect Yourself from Unhealthy Chemicals

In his devastating expose, The Hundred-Year Lie: How to Protect Yourself from the Chemicals That Are Destroying Your Health, investigative journalist Randall Fitzgerald warns how thousands of man-made chemicals in our food, water medicine, and environment are making humans the most polluted species on the planet.  The Hundred-Year Lie began in 1906, when the U.S. Congress enacted the Pure Food and Drug Act, a law that gave Americans the illusion of food and drug safety.

The reason for this difference is unknown, but the Indian diet may very well have something to do with it. Curry dishes, of course, are a staple of the Indian diet.
