Natural flavorings are used in a wide variety of foods and are sourced from edible elements found in nature. While they’re certainly safe to consume, simply listing “natural flavors” on an ingredients list doesn’t mean the food product is healthier than foods made with artificial flavors or no added flavors.What Are Natural Flavors? Spices. Fruit or fruit juice.
Vegetables or vegetable juice. Edible yeast, herbs, bark, buds, root leaves or plant material. Dairy products, including fermented products. Meat, poultry or seafood. Eggs.
Chemists make natural flavors by extracting chemicals from natural ingredients, while artificial flavors are made by creating the same chemicals synthetically. Both types of flavors are included in.Reason #1: natural flavors are 90 percent chemical junk As you learned above, 80 to 90 percent of the ingredients that make up natural flavors contain chemical solvents and preservatives.
These include the cancer-causing chemical BH.But it’s a great thing for food manufacturers because artificial flavors are much cheaper than using real food (or even natural flavors). Natural Flavors. Natural Flavor is practically the exact same thing as Artificial Fl avor, but it’s derived from substances found in nature (plants.
Meet the chemical flavorists who readily admit these “natural flavors” (really MSG-forming compounds) ARE addictive. Profit-driven, they want us to come back to buy MORE! Mind you, more than 3,000 food additives — preservatives, flavoring.They can replace flavors that food processing and pasteurizing removed (probably the case with the orange juice he spotted); they help food taste fresh even when it is not (again, perhaps the case.Flavorings are used as food additives for altering and/or enhancing the flavors of natural food products.
Sometimes, food flavorings are also used to create flavor for food products that do not have desired flavors such as candies and other snacks.Also many ‘natural flavors’ are made from artificial ingredients, but as long as the chemical compound of the end product is same as the natural counter parts, it can be labeled as natural. The best way to avoid these risks is unless they are specified and you know what they are, if it says artificial or natural flavors, you should avoid them all.“The largest difference is that natural flavors are coming from natural sources — the original ingredient is found in nature and then purified and extracted and added back into the food.” Artificial and natural add-ins might trick you into expecting.”Natural flavors” and “artificial flavors” aren’t always as different as you might think.
We explain the difference and what means for your health.While food processors must list all of the ingredients on a food label, flavor manufacturers do not have to disclose their ingredients. They can add synthetic solvents, preservatives, emulsifier.Indirect food additives, 21 CFR Parts 175, 176, 177, & Part 178 (except that sanitizing agents for food processing equipment as listed in 178.1010 are included in the Food Additives list.).In his article entitled ‘Recognition of food additives as a cause of symptoms of allergy’, he included the 1610 synthetic flavours and 502 natural flavours listed at that time.
In 1985, a comprehensive analysis of the salicylate contents of foods showed that there were salicylates in even more foods than Dr Feingold realised (see box).MX2052 Mexico Approves Additives for Food and Beverages Page 3 ANNEX X: Processing Aids and ANNEX XI: Flavors. Additional Information There may be food and supplement additives still in use today that are not listed in the new agreement but that are listed in the previous agreement, as published in the Diario Oficial on July 17, 2006 (as.

guess whats in impossible burgers those plant based foods? synthethic chemicals and heme that has been taken from stem cells. its all soylent green
Nice Video clip! Forgive me for butting in, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you considered Millawdon Enemy Foods Trick (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is a smashing one off product for learning how to detox the body from toxins minus the headache. Ive heard some super things about it and my cooworker after a lifetime of fighting got cool success with it.
The FDA is compromised! I’m sick of it. our taxes pay for that organization to protect our health and our family’s health. but they and all the other outlets of health control are funded by and do business with the same people pumping out this toxic pollution food. Come on people let’s do something
she gets a lot of things right and has part of the truth but this rabbit hole goes a lot deeper.
It’s so revealing that about 5 or so years ago, tons of celebs who had recently had children ( so their babies were grown enough to chew) were putting out photos of their children either eating or pictured with a bag of Pirate’s Booty. And the celeb would also endorse it by saying they loved eating them as well! Now the latest trend for celebs and social media personalities is to be shown buying and/or preparing Annie’s instant mac’n’cheese and expressing they’re love of it (Jaclyn Hill was the latest, cooking an instant Mac’n’cheese by Annie’s, saying how it was her go-to comfort food!) Can you say agenda?
I’m setting here eating a bag of chewy Spree candy. It has blue 1 blue 2 lake, whatever lake is? It also has red 40 more lake, yellow 5 yellow 5 lake, & yellow 6. However there is no green and green is the worst flavor! I’m already getting a temper tantrum over the abnormal amount of green candy!!!
You got it! Reading labels is not enough!
Go on the “FUCK-MONSANTO-DIET”
The FMD is ; A plant based diet, organic (mostly) NO SUGAR, WHEAT, SOY, CORN, ALCOHOL, PROCESSED FOODS.”
I lost weight, I gained muscle, every ailment I had is now gone. I feel fantastic. No more fatty liver disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high blood sugar, GERD, obesity, back ache, and a list of other symptoms that are gone which I keep forgetting about, Oh yes, asthma and allergies. I am 60, I am on 0 medications, I can outwork, outrun and out think anybody half my age. They are killing us with the additives to the food. I think the meat is especially bad. When I ate a lot of meat and worked out I did not develop much muscle, how is it that now that I am on a plant based diet my muscles are growing so fast?
Great video and super important information. thanks.
I worked on a project to discuss between organic vanilla and artificial. C14. Is the determinator. Artificial compounds are not identical.
Thank you Doc for sharing this very important topic. I never knew the food we eat everyday is/ are not safe. I hope you could visit Philipines and educate us with you very informative discussion about food we eat. Filipinos love to eat their food with MSG. My late grandmother eat organic foods she grown in the backyard., the problem is she put an Msg to the soup that she cooked. I guess thats the number one reason she experienced Alzheimers before she died. From now on, ill be careful choosing my foods to eat. Even if its not delicious, the important thing is its organic. God Bless You and the owner of this uploaded youtube video.
ProblemVanilla is more complex than just a single flavour compound.
Very informative but I left early because of the long pauses, constant lip smacking, exaggerated swallowing, the “uhmmms” between sentences, giggling at pictures from her own presentation, etc. This lady needs to take a public speaking course.
BHT butylated hydroxy toluene is sold in the US as an antioxidant health supplement. Apparently because its molecular structure means it mimics vitamin e. This does not mean it’s safe.
Toluene is an industrial drying agent. Its used to strip seals from fuel tanks for example. Sound like something we should be consuming..?
Well if u like me eat more plant foods or real food then u don’t have to worry about it. Or make or bake your own foods n drinks I guess
I typically like most of the speakers but this one seems to have brought along some either very biased or just plain BS data and her emotional tactics are annoying. Even when she has a valid point she uses a BS argument which makes her appear to lack credibility.
thanks man, I have been avoiding natural flavor products for the past 2 years, and I have always wonder if it was a group of chemicals categorized under “natural”. The other comment here is funny “Fruits and ………..other ingredients.” Yeah a few might have derived from fruits, but the “other ingredients” are obviously not “natural”. Avoid Kraft foods all of their products are straight up chemicals.
This video: debunks the bad reputation of artificial flavorings
Karens: confused screaming
Why mention the two banned flavors since 1950 if not to give reasons why?
I’ll eat anything NOT labeled organic. Organic is over priced and overrated
Iv been drinking Amp Organic for the last three years, it only has four ingredients including Natural Flavor. Seriously WTF, iv been paying $2 each for a single 12Oz can, this is rediculous. Now I find out I could be drinking MSG, all I can say is you cant trust anything you don’t grow your self, including the water used to grow
” it’s all the same chemical” I say to my meth dealer as hes mixing sudafed in battery acid
A motto I’ve kept in the back of my mind whenever nature vs science is involved: “Nature is not your friend”.
Nature can harm you just as much as science can.
MSG occurs naturally in tomatoes. Cheese, mushrooms and all kinds of “natural foods” your welcome
No Wonder countries using more artificial flavour or processed food have highest number of cancers per capita.
So nice to see a nuanced discussion about natural vs artificial. It’s amazing to me how many people just blindly think if its natural its healthy. In order to save our planet we really need to look at things from all angles to find the best solution
This man must lack taste buds because there is a huge difference between pure vanilla extract and artificial vanilla flavoring
“Natural sounds like its better”
Idk….orange juice gets it flavor from ground up orange peels, orange tree leaves, and sugar….I wouldn’t really call that appetizing…lol
Edit: just finished the video. Funny that they pointed out orange juice. Hahah
I just realized what’s so endearing about Hank Green… he’s comfortable in his own skin.
Bobby, after watching some of your videos, my head is spinning! How about this… You come to my house, I tell you what I like and give you cash, then you go shopping for me!
Epic and critical insights, thanks so much for sharing! Cleaned out my fridge and revised my thinking on my channel. It you’re into fitness and Hong Kong food check it out
Because of this topic, i was reminded aboue the dumbasses who thought that raw cashews could be edible
It means either way that it’s not gonna taste like what they claim. I’ve never had anything say, strawberry flavored, actually taste like strawberry. It’s weird or my taste buds are off. I dunno.
On one hand, the natural stuff usually has small, nuanced flavour (such as the mentioned vanilla) that can’t be reproduced exactly in the lab (as there are more enzymes and the like than that ONE chemical).
On the second hand, have to remember where some of the “natural” stuff comes from/how it’s obtained, as well as if any of those slightly different tastes are “burned” away in the pasteurization/cooking/packaging/etc…. Process.
Please have a video on supplement for brain! Also please review foucus factor for brain supplement.
This video is exactly what i need when i have to be awake in less than 2 hours
Just remember vanilla flavor from a beaver’s ass is all natural.
How about a video on the best filters for your tap water and testing kits.Your spin on clean drinking water a must!
Awesome great job you guys. Thanks for all the information it’s just fantastic learning something new things from you every time.
Thanks
The molecules may be the same but their creation and quality do in fact have an impact on the human body at a level that most people can’t sense until the effects have compounded much later. This video is informative but comes across as very bias in its discourse. The reality is also that their are biological phenomenon that can never be accurately measured by a machine. This video would have served the public well to disclose more of the information on the food industry at large and why these avenues have been taken (cheep, easy, addictive).
I’ll go one step further, HEK 293 (Human Embryonic Kidney Cells).
It’s sickening what they are doing to our foods. The name of the company is Senomyx.
God bless.
Oh, yes, my favorite ice cream flavor, bever butt and petroilum.
Her information is nice, but I wish she was a better speaker.
Look at kettle and fire bone broth. It’s all clean pure bone broth.
I’ve always been confused by the words “natural” and “artificial”. Humans evolved naturally, so everything we do is natural, So space probes and nuclear reactors are a natural process of our planet.
Orange juice tastes disgusting when bought from the store but when you make the freshly squeezed one at home HFS OH MY GOD it tastes good.
HEK 293, is “human embryonic kidneys” ti.e. aborted fetuses, this also listed as “natural flavor” thank you for this video, I will share it.
Hey thanks for the informative videos! Such a pity I cannot get your recommended brands in Australia!!
Caught myself drinking a 0-calorie can of tea with organic natural flavors on a fast. Instantly knew it was too good to be true.
The the supermarket in the US are simply amazing and flooded with amazing products…
This reminds me of inorganic dirt. Consider dirt as a generic word for… well… dirt. Yep, there’s dirt, potting soil generally, marketed as organic and it’s much more expensive than the ordinary stuff. The organic basically means it was all a plant before, now all composted into dirt. Meanwhile the inorganic stuff, cheap, is a mix of humus and sand or clay. There are those afraid to grow their kale in inorganic soil. Sand and clay are rock, just not large solid pieces, completely natural, you know it as dirt, and suitable for growing but perhaps having less plant nutrition. So maybe stuff grows better in the high price dirt, maybe not. Maybe the soil is easier to work, maybe not. But it certainly isn’t healthier.
Flavor is just chemicals that can be made in a lab, or programmed…. Y’all we might be in the Matrix
Look up Senomyx, a company who sells baby parts to food and drugs we consume.
Why does artificially sweetened soda taste completely different from sugared soda?
If you want to be healthy, do not eat any animal products. Eat a whole food plant based diet and make your own distilled water. Eat plant based (quality, non-synthetic) vitamins and plant based minerals.
I don’t eat artificial flavors as much as possible because they’re often tested on animals.
Despite all of that conversation in this video all of the discussion about artificial is not true. If you really look at it everything came from the earth it wasn’t developed out of some outer worldly planet. The ingredients used in the chemical lab did not come from some other worldly place it came from earth. I don’t care what they say it may appear to be artificial but there is no such thing as artificial because everything comes from earth. Thus everything is natural. nuff said
huh, i once bet with an old engineer about the material of a 3d print in front of a couple of classmates,
he said it was ABS
i knew it was PLA
i ate the print, was tasteless (by the way if oil is natural then both were natural)
i got 2000 and a date
I only select artificial flavorings. Some natural flavorings have triggers for my allergies (i cook it so I know the ingredients well). Excited for genetic engineered flavors.
wait…people actually think that the bottles juice is fresher than concentrate?!
huh…the more you know…
When your gf says you need to eat beaver more so you dodge to the freezer and get that Baskin Robbins.
Me: Please be Hank. Please be Hank. Please be Hank. Oh, thank God!
Makes sense because they did the same thing with tobacco! Adding addictive and cancer causing ingredients that keeps you hooked!
So u are telling me if I lick a beaver butt, it would taste like vanilla?
Ok so with vanilla, if someone is allergic to vanilla, could they eat artificial vanilla???
Wow I never thought pesticides were injected into roots of plants. Organic all the way from now onwards. Thank you for the insight and the truth. ❤️
hello i want to get my spice rub in bottles with labels can u please lead me in the right direction?
I’ll continue avoiding the guess work by sticking to whole foods that don’t require an ingredient list.
Nobody-
Random guyhey, that castor ass smells good….we should eat it.
I like how 1080p means blurry mode now. Is proper HD reserved for brilliant.org, Skillshare subscribers and Patreons? lol
Natural flavors in mayonnaise?? Mayonnaise doesn’t need to taste more like mayonnaise!
Dont buy anything that’s more than 1 ingredient….that solves the problem.
Artificial strawberry flavor is extremely fake and disgusting
I landed here today because I have noticed that every single thing I eat and drink contains this Natural Flavors stuff. I thought is was very odd to list this sort of thing on every single all natural product I purchased, first it was on my wife’s La Croix drinks, then I saw it everywhere, and now La Croix has changed it to naturally essensed I think to be a step ahead of those concerned about natural flavors, watch, next everything will be natural essensed
vanillin isnt sweet tasting, but when its mixed with glucose it is. Youre a science channel take what you say literally. Thanks. Concerned citizen.
If it wasn’t for Bobby I would never have known this.
This makes me wonder why the FDA slows this?
Your speech was great.. Dr. Monteith who died a few years ago said aspartame was hid in ingredients as natural flavors
Lol who cares where it comes from if it is exactly chemically the same? If we didnt say where food came from no one would say anything…
Plants and animals. Hmmmm…. People are animals. Technically speaking, this allows for humans to be part of your diet.
yeah if you have ever had actual freshly squeezed orange juice you can def tell the difference
What about cyclamates? My mom told me they were banned in the ’60’s because they caused cancer. What’s the scoop?
can you please tell if dextrin is safe or good to consume for Keto?
Do you want to know what the flavoring is just look up and see what Pepsi does they put aborted fetal liver cells in there f**** Pepsi craft does it Nestle does it and a few others do it look up the Pepsi thing and you’ll see who they work with starts with an s then punch that company up and see what list of companies work with them and you can read all about it natural flavors artificial flavors that’s exactly what it is aborted fetus liver cells I just found out myself I’ve been drinking water since then. They call aborted fetus liver cells hex 293
5 weeks of following your food recommendations and I am officially off pain medication. Autoimmune diseases are affected by foods more than I wanted to realize. Also 10 lbs down.
After removing artificial flavorings I find myself enjoying veggies and fruits more than ever
I love you guys. Keep doing what you do!!!
Thank thank you thank you for opening my eyes! This is so scary what have I been eating omg
wow….ive been buying really sweet not much bitter liquid organic stevia…almost $5.00, has organic alchohal and natural flavorings…bummer….
How are you guys able to film at Walmart?? They always kick vloggers out.
I just bought stonyfield vanilla low fat yogurt today and it has organic natural flavor. So I guess its cool♀️
I am so frustrated!!!! The food industry is poisoning us by lies and deception. It is so hard trying to find clean ingredients in our foods since l don’t live near a whole foods. I’m trying to cook more but even a lot of basic ingredients are contaminated with these chemicals. But thank you Bobby, you really opened my eyes.
The US is really F-ed up when it comes to food. No wonder you have so many sick obese people.
Thank you for this eye opening video! I really wish eating healthy was not expensive
OMG I was having the WORST and most discouraging time trying to find broth I just decided to figure out how to make my own
My cooking/baking advice is to just add the thing.
If you want your food to taste like orange, for example, just add orange instead of orange flavor regardless of where it came.
For buying stuff, they’re almost the same so do as you please.
Your mushroom “that can kill you” isn’t deadly there bud. Fly Amanita isn’t deadly. Next time you make a “science” video, try doing a little scientific research. Derp
So natural flavors in itself aren’t unhealthy? They just could potentially get you addicted to junk food?
Stonybroke doesn’t have natural flavorings in vanilla, right?
Can you make a video of approved foods to buy at dollar tree? Please I’m on low income. I only shop at Walmart or dollar tree
Isn’t there a food dye that comes from crushed up insects?
I’d honestly way rather have the same thing made in the lab.
Watch Paul Saladino, Sally K Norton and Ken Berry. Very educational YouTube videos.
N I thought I was a healthy woman
Wow wow wow!!!!
Thanks guys I learned so much since I discovered you on YouTube.
U r educating me n I truly enjoy all your videos.
Thank you.
The small marshmallows in rocky road cookies/ icecream and granola bars cause cancer if you inhale the dust from them but 100% safe to eat, or so i was told.
Natural flavors consist of aborted baby cells to add flavor to food..castinate is dried out ottter balls.
Please do one on Gluten so that everyone can shut up and stop acting like it’s killing us.
I looked up many of the things Bobbie promotes. There are many pros and cons. He may pick something for his opinion. I’m not putting him down. I have followed some of his facts. It is good that he cares for us. But like I recommended, look up things for yourself.
I ♥️epic, I put it in quinoa and it tastes good and know epic has out a bar with natural meat ♥️ it
The Other Guys! Great film! And great YouTube video! Thanks for the help!
Everytime I eat anything with maltodextrin and with natural flavor I felt so sick that’s why I’m avoiding those
That’s the hidden name for wheat flour…so for those gluten free person be careful if theres ingredient of natural flavor
6:00 oh sure because we all drink gatorade from 1997 (look at the copyright date above the barcode. Also note the bottle is glass, I haven’t seen a glass bottle of gatorade in decades, if not ever). Most gatorade produced now uses plain sugar, which is better than that high fructose corn syrup crap.
I’m not standing up for gatorade btw, and I rarely have it now because I try to avoid sugary drinks. Just if you’re trying to prove a point, use a more recent picture. Thanks.
Radioactive radium would count as a natural substance. Lead is also natural
I’ve seen others ask you to create an app with all of this wonderful information, I’d subscribe and I have a feeling many more people would love it too
the USDA is also compromised. Everyone look online and find out who are the biggest supporters of the USDA as far as donations. You will find all the big Monopoly companies. most of which everyone knows to have very low quality foods. it’s evident that the FDA and also USDA is being paid off in order to let things like this slip through the cracks. It’s so obvious when you read the ingredients in almost every kind of food nowadays that the USDA and FDA is not making regulations strict enough to protect the lives of the American people. usda are the people who come out with the food pyramid every year telling all Americans the healthy daily diet plan. It’s all profit ran
Is plant based Vega protein and Energy with MCT oil is Babby Parrish proof?
Super helpful video! For broth I did find one at Costco called culinary treasures. It’s organic and contains organic chicken stock and organic chicken flavor as it’s only 2 ingredients. Yay or nay?
Question about the Annie’s “cheesy snacks”… Earlier in the video, you said pre-shredded cheese is bad, partly because of the anti-caking agents used. The Annie’s product also contains an anti-caking agent..Silicone Dioxide. What makes the Annie’s one better?
I can’t find a single ice cream on the shelf organic or not that does not contain natural flavours.
Ok well.. I did. The screamin brothers brand and coconut bliss. That’s it.
The reason why they add carrageenan is because there’s often msg combined with carrageenan, so it’s a way to sneak msg into there product and enhance the vanilla flavour.
So buying organic wont protect you? Why does buying food have to be so complicated?
I can’t help but feel smug as I knew most of this, except the one about orange juice, but I’ve never really liked the stuff from the carton. It’s always too sour or sweet. It’s OK when it’s diluted with water, but I generally prefer to just eat the fruit. I don’t believe juice from concentrate is any more unhealthy than not from concentrate and personally can’t tell any difference between the two. It’s just a marketing claim.
Natural flavors are the bane of those with Celiac Disease. They are in everything, are proprietary, and may contain gluten.
Consider this: when researchers need 100 rats to experiment with they take a chemical, any chemical, and shoot it into the rats. They now have 100 rats with cancer or some other decease to experiment with. Chemicals are very dangerous. They do not belong in your mouth. Is Natural flavors a coverup for chemicals? Just wondering…… are we the rats?
You can make the difference between fake and real vanilla, one way is the colour if its white its not vanilla… like McDonald’s ice cream
Can you do a video about how corn is hidden in everything? Citric avid, ascorbic acid, natural flavors, maltodextrin etc….there’s a huge list and it’s nearly impossible to find a corn free packaged product for our son who is allergic to corn.
I learn at least one new nugget of info when I watch your videos. I believe each of us can contribute to better food choices through higher awareness. Taking an inspired action step to write companies is one way I can create that positive change. I just received an email from Trapper’s Creek who makes smoked fish & salmon. They updated me in that they no longer are using corn syrup solids & that their natural flavoring is also not a chemical, but rather a proprietary ingredient that they use to set their product apart from others.
3:20 But paper pulp comes from plants, right?
Wouldn’t the plant/animal definition mean that sea salt is an artificial flavour?
Can someone explain to me how artificial grape, strawberry, watermelon, cherry, banana, and pineapple taste like the real fruits in America? I lived in Japan for a year, and if they say something tastes like something, it most certainly does. But in 3rd-world countries like the US, it’s like drinking urine with the courtesy of it being called water.
they make coconut flavour out of some tree bark and not just well idk…a coconut perhaps
I myself have made artificial banana flavour artificial cherry in chem class in college…all nasty and disgusting…the small amount you use is still toxic
this is great, it’s bad enough we have “Franken” foods, now they’re “Franken” flavored, too and BTW, strawberry and orange flavorings have always made me nauseous
What the hell? I live in Shanghai and the Ben and Jerry’s that I get from the small little supermarkets that sell foreign food items do not have that super long list of ‘ingredients’? Is the Ben and Jerry’s that is sold overseas actually better than the domestic American Ben and Jerry’s?
Natural flavors is the new way of saying MSG!
https://foodsthathealyou.com/over-34-hidden-names-for-msg/
Hi there…I love your videos but, I’m a bit confused. In another video…you said Zevia was “bobby approved.”
All that stuff didnt have natural flavors when it came out. This is a recently thing the last 3 years and I know because I read ALL the ingredients of everything i buy
This is sick! Thank God for wisdom and for this man calling these things out!
Nearly all scientific studies on animals go from what they think is harmless to better see what lethal doses are by killing the animals. Usually its 5000% higher dose that one would consume. But some crafty “researcher” latches onto the danger words in abstracts, not the real scientific papers, just the press release versions.
Many food additives are banned in Europe, but legal in the states.
https://www.advisory.com/daily-briefing/2019/01/03/banned-foods
Bobby, I found you recently. I am reading labels like I never did before. In the past I was afraid to read the labels because I didn’t understand them but you have given me the ability to be knowledgeable for the first time. I don’t think I could live without your reviews I hope you never stop!
Hank, love the work you’re doing. Good subject and well explained.
Lol you finally got me to subscribe. Been watching you for 3 weeks now. I was on YouTube watch Keto recipes and some of you recipes videos popped up. I LOVE YOUR CLOUD BREAD. I came for the Keto videos, but I’m staying for a healthy way to live. ❤❤❤❤
Great video Bobby! Thanks to you and Art for all of the enlightening content.
Maple Hill yogurt has cane sugar in it. I think you made a blooper, Bobby, but thanks for the invaluable info about “natural flavors.”
Maybe you can answer this question in another video. Why is Soy added to so many foods? I mean its really tough finding foods that DON”T contain Soy, if you’re sensitive to this food…
Shouldn’t natural flavours in organic products be completely natural?
I feel so lucky to find your channel. It may take a couple days to watch all your videos. They are very helpful! You couple are great! I am also in the windy city I will share your videos with my Chinese friends. You deserve millions followers!
But natural flavors are in almost every product. This is how they are killing us. I wonder if the rich get their foods from a different source.
How’s about a review of how clean you can get extract and drops
It all sounds horrible, and I avoid it as much as possible. But I think the actual studies are all pretty skimp on this subject. You shouldn’t be a slave constantly avoiding things and reading labels, assuming you eat a mostly clean diet. Healthy mind is what’s going to keep you alive anyway. You can eat clean as possible and if you are constantly stressed and angry and worried and ruminating…that will kill you and invite disease and imbalance. But now that doesn’t market well, does it. Healthy mind, healthy life.
I remember making bana and mint flavorings in college chem lab.
Another interesting twist is artificial maple syrup is usually naturally flavored with fenugreek extract
Before you just buy a guys word, read into what msg really is and whether it’s bad to consume. I just read over a dozen different articles on msg to learn more myself only to find that msg isn’t unhealthy to be consumed, certainly shouldn’t be a concern for anyone who eats it in moderation.
does a beaver butt taste like vanilla??? eho fitst tasted thatt?
Thanks for sharing this information, sharing knowledge is going to be key to survival when things get more shitty. New sub.
Peace to you
Dr. Monteith who died a few years ago said natural flavors was aspartame. I believe Pepsi and Coke have aspartame just like diet coke because the don’t taste good anymore. The only reason to drink it is addiction. There’s nothing else like it available. No competition.
Every package foods and drink has natural flavor but natural flavor from what
Something is wrong
Also, artificial diamonds are free from conflict and child labour. Artificial is sometimes better.
I would like to see you go shopping up in Canada I hear they have a different food code.
Do same general rules apply to artificial and natural preservatives?
I would totally label something flavored with flavors coming from biotech as, y’know, using biotech flavors. B/c that just. Sounds cooler to me.
There are plenty of toxic chemicals in Organic grocery stores.
Chicken nuggets are no better then artificial processed foods. Animal products are arguably worse.
George if they were essential oils it would say on the label. We are not STUPID.
Bobby thank you so much for what you do. I have been watching you and Art’s video’s for awhile now. I know you do alot of repeating yourself but it’s very necessary. So THANK YOU for that it really does help. Keep doing what your doing. I share your videos with my friends and family and we appreciate you guys.
I’m allergic to MSG. It’s in almost everything. Judging by what it does to me, it can’t not be killing us, BUT! I eat foods with “natural flavoring” all the time, if I didn’t I couldn’t eat anything, it does not effect me in the least. Foods that effect me that don’t directly say there is msg in them is Hawaiian bread, anything Pillsbury, soy sauce alternatives you find in health food stores, salmon and/or tuna belly fat. Idk what the correlation is but that’s what will put me in bed for 3 days with a raging headaches that feels like an aneurysm is coming with every heartbeat. And FYI everything we eat is GMO. There is no such thing as a wild orange, apple, celery, lettuce, nothing. If we were to find one it would taste like hell and nobody would eat it
this was so shallow of an investigation. if your reading this don’t trust anything with “natural flavors” in it.
Like the difference between Driving and Traveling…BIG difference but know one cares..
A compound is not a compound is not a compound… you are wrong sir. That’s why they are called different things. It does not taste the same it does not smell the same your body will not process it the same and it’s missing everything else that comes with it naturally that the body has become a custom to eat. Stop with your fake science pushing poison on the people! Naturalistic fallacy ummm no explain why we have a sick and dying population and the biggest factor everyone shares is food. You don’t know what your talking about your pushing propaganda for big marketing. You have shown no prof it does no harm
when i watch your vid. Only one ear phone works funny only your vid.
Why isn’t anyone talking about acetaldehyde? It’s like it has disappeared from the internet somehow.
How can they legally say “natural flavoring” and has no one accosted them on this♀️♀️thank you♀️
Excellent Thankyou! I just noticed my Non GMO almond milk has natural flavors. Also MSG is in baby formulas and that’s how they make the infant rats/ mice fat. That’s why are kids are so fat its all the MSG they eat. Put the puzzle together and get the truth out there.
Don’t assume b/c the produce code doesn’t have 8xxxx that it’s not GMO. That program is voluntary. The only way to know for sure is to buy 9xxxx for certified organic or buy from a farmer you trust.
vanilla is not sweet AT ALL. It needs sugar to be edible -it’s super bitter otherwise. Ever get a lick while making cookies
great vid. people also don’t realize that there are both “natural” and chemical versions of just about everything. Only plant based can be assimilated in our bodies properly. They other is created with synthetics typically or crud forms which are hard on the body. I’ve researched greatly, and you are correct. They use “word” trickery to profit.

Caprisun juices suck now because they are made from real fruit. They were better when the liquid was clear and artificial.
Natural flavors are basically essential oils extracted by destination process (from fruits or other ingredients), msg is one of the most abundant naturally occurring non-essential amino acids. So basically natural flavors are natural, you shouldn’t be worried about that. Don’t spread fear based on ignorance.
What about a study on how you all could be this dumb and unethical?
Labeling can be tricky what is your biggest challenge in labeling
