After a report by the very successful program “Striscia la Notizia”, some really interesting and horrifying data emerged regarding different types of Italian pasta considered to be worse. Throughout our life we eat a lot of things all the time but not always, if not almost never, we do it in a maximum of security and we do not make sure if what we eat is really authentic. Unfortunately, this is linked to the fact that, too often, the foods we cook and eat are treated with pesticides and other substances that are harmful to our health and detract from their goodness.
The worst thing is that most of the time, however, we are not even aware of it and we have to accept the fact that it is quite a serious thing. In order to inform the consumer and be able to preserve their good health, it would be important for everyone to know which foods are good and healthy to eat and which ones are rather those to avoid, in this case we want to pay attention to the much appreciated pasta Italian: the most consumed food in our country and certainly the one that has made us famous all over the world. Some time ago, in the aforementioned transmission, some truly scary and horrifying data regarding pasta was released.
This data was used by a magazine to establish a ranking of the worst pasta brands and we are obviously talking about well-known and widely consumed brands. Unfortunately, from this classification it emerged that in many brands of Italian pasta it was found to use a type of flour that contains a certain amount of pesticides and glyphosate. More worryingly, not only glyphosate was found, but also traces of deoxynivalenol micro-toxins, substances that are very dangerous for human physical health, especially when it comes to children.
The values of the substances are fortunately below the maximum threshold established by law but in any case it is not at all reassuring, even less positive, for our health since there is the presence of two or more pesticides for each type. of pasta. . Substances such as glyphosate and chlorpyrifos (an insecticide that is most toxic to the brain when it is developing) can cause serious damage to the body.
