Iso 22000 And Your Industry

Over the last few decades, there has been significant progress in the development of international food safety standards. Many companies refer to the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points (HACCP) guidelines in ensuring food safety and quality at the manufacturing plant level. However, many retailers and buyers in the food industry supply chain have slightly differing requirements, depending on their particular circumstances. For example, US retailers must comply with onerous and very specific food safety requirements laid down by the FDA, and they pass these on to their overseas suppliers, making supplying the US market sometimes costly for suppliers.

The impact of ISO 22000

Given worries about food safety and the emerging standards, ISO, the international body responsible for standardization, decided to produce a food safety standard covering the entire food supply chain. The ISO 22000 was launched in 2005 in order to meet this requirement. ISO 22000 has become one of the most recognized global food safety standards. It lists over 60 codes of practice and guideline documents associated with the food sector.
An informal survey on the impact of ISO 22000 on various sectors was conducted in 2008.

Category Number of certificates
Catering 164
Food processor 149
Dairy processor 116
Beverage manufacturer/winery 90
Meat/poultry processor72
Ingredients 66
Packaging 54
Confectionery 51
Fruit and vegetable processor46
Distributors and Handlers45
Feed manufacturer 32

As the table above shows, ISO 22000 has yet to be adopted widely in the retail sector, but a significant number of catering establishments from small restaurants to large hotels, and school cafeterias have found the standard to be a useful tool.

Industrial Supplies – What Are Industrial Supplies

Industrial Supplies are the result of the world turning to Industrialization and it seems that every year there are additions in leaps and bounds as professionals and apprentices come up with novel ways to improve the industry and environment in which we live, work and play.

There are many industries that require the supply of these industrial materials on a regular and daily basis as they go about creating, repairing maintaining and developing machinery and products for consumption by all of us.

Most of the labor force in the entire world is in some way or another linked to the manufacture of a good or product.

So, if you consider that there are specific industries out in the world that carry the responsibility for industry in general, they will need to obtain their supplies from somewhere and this is what we call industrial supplies.

Industries like that of engineering, manufacturing, robotics, scientists and laboratories, janitorial and sanitation will all need to remain at their most productive by having the correct tools and materials available for the job at hand.

Engineering supplies take the form of various metal sheets, metal piping, lathes and other metalworking equipment in order for these engineering firms to continue productively.

The manufacturing industry will rely on vast quantities of raw materials in order for molds to be pressed into products, parts to be made for end products and even timber for household products like beds and furniture.

Robotics is a specialized industry that fortunately is improving our lives on a daily basis as those little gadgets like cellular telephones and televisions are created smaller and smaller every year with more and more functions and capabilities.

These goods and products could not be possible without research and development into fields such as robotics, science and industrial development.

Scientists and laboratories consume large amounts of raw chemicals on a daily basis as they try, test and receive approval from the FDA to go into production of pharmaceuticals.

These labs all require machines and technology to operate which are possible with the help of the engineering, mechanical, electronic and a stack more of expertise in order to have the equipment and tools that they do.

This is why it is extremely important to the sustainability of the economy and gross domestic production in general to ensure a sound supply of industrial materials and industrial supplies in general.

Vitaminwater taken to court. Vitamin Water industry ready for a takeover.

Herbally Pure Is Seeking Investors For The New Vitamin Water Concept. A vitamin packed, cost effective, very logical, Vitamin Water Kit.

Vitamin water is one of the largest and strongest sales categories in the market place. As we know, Coca Cola allegedly paid over 4 Billion Dollars for Glacau and rap artist Mr. Curtis Jackson made over 400 million on the deal. Numbers like that do not happen in a weak category. Potential for unlimited growth is obvious. Coca Cola spending over 4 billion to enter the vitamin water market is testimony in itself to the potential future of this very strong and ever growing market.

Lately this fast track growth has hit a big bump in the road which is leaving the entire industry open and susceptible to a complete take over and change in direction.

As more and more people are becoming health conscious they are questioning the validity of the vitamin water claim that, vitamin water is actually good for you. There are many educated consumers questioning if vitamin water actually has any real benefits at all and many say that the ingredients in it may actually be bad for you.

At present there is a consumer protection organization that is taking Coca Cola to court over misrepresentation of their vitamin water having any health benefits at all. This is after Coca Cola paid out the 4 billion to enter the vitamin water market. This is only one story of many class action lawsuits that have started to surface and have the capability to cripple the industry.

What It Means For VitaminWater:This could be the end of the brand and I do not say that lightly. The court upheld claims that go to the very heart of its marketing strategy: Its name is no good; its formula is illegally fortified and its health claims are misleading. They must do something quickly to save the brand and its reputation, otherwise if this case continues, the ugly truth about its product will be learned of far and wide. What this means is that the vitamin water industry is heading in an incredible new direction and they do not even know it is coming, yet. They are still floundering while trying figure out how to deal with and address these issues. Well we did just that!

We believe that our new concept will guide past, present and future vitamin water consumers and companies in a new direction which is going to be a simple, nutritionally packed, cost effective and very logical, Vitamin Water Kit.

We challenge any vitamin water on the market to compare their ingredient list against our Vitamin Water Kit. This one vitamin water kit bottle will make 32 bottles of Great Tasting high potency vitamin water that is actually good for you.

That is only one of the benefits, though the strongest being that we really are a vitamin water. Other issues that will make this an easy sell as the, New Way To Go, is that you also eliminated 32 plastic bottles from going to the landfill. Simply add 1oz of the vitamin water concentrate to your sports water bottle supplied, add cold water and you really do have a vitamin water. This means less weight that has to be shipped and less warehouse space needed by all in the supply chain. One 3 inch by 8 inch box containing the entire vitamin water kit in the shopping cart in the equivalent to 32 bottles in the cart. Retailers will especially like the idea because it opens up all that shelf space taken up by vitamin water at present for other more profitable products.

We strongly believe once consumers find out about this New Concept which address all their issues, they in turn are going to steer the industry into this more ethical direction.

We have addressed all the issues, not only with the educated consumers challenging the validity of and wanting a healthy vitamin water, but also with companies trying to go green and grow profits.

A case of vitamin water holds 24 bottles. Wholesale Warehouse price is about $1.29 each bottle, average grocery store price $1.60 per bottle. One bottle of our vitamin water concentrate makes 32 bottles at about 87 cents each and with a much greater amount of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants.

What The Sugar Industry And Fda Dont Want You To Know! – Miracle Fruit.

Article Written by Mr Steven Havill Sr (SEO Expert and Specialist) A client of the MiracleFruitHut.com

Miraculin or Miracle Fruit has the potential to wipe out sugar related diabetes, not by sweetening food but by changing the way our taste buds interpret food.

Imagine eating the sweetest fruits out of the season, or enjoying healthy unsweetened dark chocolate that tastes like the finest milk chocolate from Holland, and doing it without adding a single calorie or grain of sweetener. Yes, this is possible and has been for decades.

Didn’t you know?

For the last 50 years, our society has been pounded with the evils of

smoking, drinking, eating red meat, and that we should cut as much salt and fat from our diets as possible. Under the guise of healthy living, we are being programmed to replace our intake of butter with margarine or red meat with soy alternatives. This brings me to my point. We are being sold a bill of goods and any questioning is quickly muffled by the industries who control our food. We are told to eat this or that instead of that or this, but only if it is beneficial to the industry promoting it.

One such industry is the sugar industry also known as BIG SUGAR!

There are very few things in life that are as good yet so harmful to you as refined white sugar. Sugar is by far the largest worldwide addiction that is openly protected by the FDA. White refined sugar is not a food. It is a chemical. It is an addictive drug. Yes, that’s right, an addictive drug and when you remove it from your diet you can experience withdrawal symptoms. Refined sugar is used in everything from bread to fruit juice. Fruit juice! No way, they use fructose in fruit juice.

So called “Natural Sweeteners”;

If you consider fructose a safe, natural sugar, think again. You’ve been had by one of the biggest nutritional bait-and-switch ploys in years. Fructose does not come from fruit, it IS refined sugar! High fructose consumption has been fingered as a causative factor in heart disease. It raises blood levels of cholesterol and another type of fat, triglyceride. It makes blood cells more prone to clotting, and it may also accelerate the aging process. So the next time you see a commercial touting the virtues of Fructose as the actor sucks on her popsicle… know that they are lying to you.

Even though there are healthier natural alternatives, BIG SUGAR continues to protect their interests in much the same way big tobacco has for decades. They own both the sugar and sugar replacement markets which meant that getting other, healthier alternatives are slim at best and getting these truths nonexistent.

Artificial Sweeteners;

Artificial replacements are known to have carcinogens. They cause CANCER and the companies making them know it. They have been rebranded constantly to keep consumers from understanding the true hazards of ingesting such products. Imagine renaming a product, changing the color of the box and calling it healthy! Such artificial sweeteners are; Acesulfame potassium Nutrinova, E950 (FDA Approved 1988), Alitame Pfizer (Pending FDA Approval), Aspartame NutraSweet, E951 (FDA Approved 1981), Salt of aspartame-acesulfame Twinsweet, E962, Cyclamate Abbott, E952 (FDA Banned 1969, pending re-approval), Dulcin (FDA Banned 1950) Glucin, Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone E959, Neotame, NutraSweet (FDA Approved 2002), P-4000 (FDA Banned 1950), Saccharin E954 (FDA Approved 1958), Sucralose Kaltame, Splenda, Tate & Lyle, E955 (FDA Approved 1998)

Natural Sweeteners that truly are healthy (honestly!);

Naturalists and foodies are just now starting to expound the virtues of natural sugar alternatives such as stevia, mannitol, glycerol and the primary subject of this article miraculin. Miraculin is a glycoprotein extracted from the miracle berry or miracle fruit plant, a shrub native to West Africa (Synsepalum dulcificum or Richadella dulcifica). Rather than acting as a sweetening agent, miraculin changes the way our taste buds interpret flavors. It makes sour limes and lemons taste like lemon aide. It makes healthy unsweetened dark chocolate taste like fine milk chocolate. And it does all of this without adding a single calorie or grain of sweetener.

The ad read; Are you diabetic? Would you like to eat chocolate cake again? How about a chocolate cake with no sugar that tastes like the most decadent brownie you’ve ever tasted? Are you overweight? Would you like to eat fruit that tastes like candy, instead of candy that is killing you?

YES! Of course I would, while thinking to myself that this has to be a con. After hearing all the hype about Miracle fruit I started researching this so-called miracle plant. I was going to get to the bottom of this thing and find out for myself. I was amazed at what I found out, and it prompted me to purchase a package of miraculin tablets. These are freeze dried miracle fruit berries with a little corn starch added to hold the tablets together. They are all natural and won’t interact with any medicines negatively. I started looking for a place to buy some miraculin and found a site (http://miraclefruithut.com) that offered lightning fast shipping. I placed my order and for $15, I received 10 tablets in about 2 days (yes they shipped lightning fast just as they had promised), and I was ready to give it a try.

Keep in mind that I myself am a sweetaholic and I crave sugar. I drink my coffee sweetened and have become addicted to flavored (artificial) creamers. I do love fruit, however, getting good naturally ripened and sweet fruit is next to impossible these days. With that said, for my test I got a melon that was not very sweet, out of season and the flavor was, well… blah! Imagine biting into a piece of candle wax with a dash of sugar on it.

After chewing on the miracle berry tablet and rolling it around in my mouth for a minute or two (as directed), I took a bite of my blah melon. OH MY GOODNESS! It was like I’d never eaten a cateloupe before. Is this what God intended fruit to taste like? I can’t wait to try a miracle fruit berry now. I’ve read that they are twice as potent as the tablets and are the purest way to really exploit the power of miraculin.

A little about my research on Miracle Fruit;

The Miracle Fruit was first discovered and brought attention to by the western world by explorer Chevalier des Marchais during a 1725 excursion of West Africa
when he became aware that local tribes in West Africa were using this berry to add flavour and appetise their otherwise bland foods. Then In the 60’s
and the 70’s an Entreupreuner Named Robert Harvey who had studied this amazing berry after Des Marchais’s discoveries managed to raise tens of millions of dollars to create an all natural alternative to sugar using the Miracle Fruit.
He sucessfully managed to synthesize the active ingredient inside the berry the natural protein known as Miraculin.

He began making Miracle Fruit Tablets because as like most Tropical Plants the fruits on the plant have a very short shelf life which is the reason many Fruits from the Tropics do not make it to the Western world.

Diabetics were going crazy for them and kids were choosing miracle fruit popsicles over popsicles with artificial sweeteners by an enourmous margin. This is when other Corporations became interested and Robet Harvey was turning down offers for billions of dollars as Miraculin looked like it was poised and ready to become an all natural alternative to Sugar. Just as the berry was about to launch Harveys office was raided by industrial spies, His files and research was stolen, he got into high speed car chases in the middle of the night and people were following him. Not long after In 1974 Robert Harvey Recieved a letter from the FDA saying the miracle berry products are not allowed into the market in any form what soever which led him to shutting down his entire operation.

The Laws from the FDA regarding miracle fruit are quite uncertain and suspicious. Many inquiries have been made regarding miracle fruit. Thier stance is that they consider miracle fruit as a food additive. Miraculin cannot be used as a food additive, effectively locking it out of the food chain. However, the fresh berry itself can be used legally and this is regulated by the USDA. Unfortunately the USDA seems to be stuck in a regulatory limbo.

This amazing berry is great for your health, yet it is not legalised to be in commercial food and drink products although legal to be sold on the internet in its natural forms.

How could anyone at the FDA not promote something so pure, so good and so potentially life changing is beyond me. And worse still is the fact that they are determined to keep anyone from enjoying the benefits of this miracle fruit. Have they actually tried it? I’d have to think not, but then they also want to ban Vitamin C at the request of BIG Pharma! Who BTW, also have a vested interest in BIG SUGAR, reference “Artificial Sweeteners” above.
