Hello Linda Grassie,

    Thank you for taking the time to respopnd to my letter questioning how much of the toxin Hexane remains in animal feeds and more importantly, in human foods.

I do not know how to answer your question of noting the studies that were named in the letter. Both studies that I referred to and quoted I provided sufficient documentation so that they could be found using a simple web search.

The third study, that of the effects of hexane causing underdevelopment on rats in uterus is on the internet, as are many studies of various toxins that have been studied to determine what adverse effects the toxin has on the developing fetus.

Though i cannot cite the specific study who found that Hexane causes rear end muscular underdevelopment on rats in uterus, I hold it as a standard common sense that toxins ingested at high levels cause damage to living animals, and cause even more damage to developing fetuses.

    i encourage everyone to discover the answer to my questions by seeking the answers for themselves, and by doing their own research.

The reason that Hexane is in food products is because people have voted with their dollars and told the producers that the consumer cares more about the copper coin than they care about their health.

  It is not a startlingly broad leap to associate the ingestion of immuno-suppressants over long terms with the onset of auto-immune maladies, hiv, lupus, arthritis, etc etc, but is following the way of what ought to come to a person who eats a petroleum product that overburdens the immune system and makes it weak.

  I have had some responses to my questions that I posed in email, yours, and a handful of others. But none have posed any explanations or any answers as to the amount of Hexane remaining in eggs, milk, cheese, butter, and chicken and beef meat.

Thank You,

Dale Baney
