Don't Worry it's 'China-Free'.

Those 3 little words that strike fear into the hearts of many consumers ‘Made In China’ are now being challenged by 2 little words.......... ‘China-Free’. Capitalizing on the recent concerns about food products from China, a whole food nutritional supplement company is the first to start adding 'China-Free' labels to all of its products and actively promote that its ingredients and products are NOT made in China. ‘Food for health International’ have always used organic and natural ingredients in their vitamin and health shake products but President Frank Davis wants to ensure that the world knows that absolutely none of these ingredients come from China. Of course this is all a direct result of the recent headlines which have listed more than 100 brands of Chinese pet products and fruits and vegetables which have dangerous ingredients in them, including dodgy chemicals which have caused illness and some deaths. Chinese-made tires were recently found to be made by eliminating essential gum strips for tread integrity and toothpastes have been discovered containing chemicals more common to antifreeze than the harmless glycerines that are usually expected in a toothpaste. Get ready for the ‘Asian’ section at your supermarket to become a whole lot smaller than it was!
