I was having abdominal pain, sometimes severe, on and off for months. After one bout and the continued presence of the pain, I found out it was because of carrageenan. It has damaged my body and IT MUST BE REMOVED FROM OUR FOOD!!!

I have severe reactions to carrageenan. If i ingest even just a little, I suffer severe constipation, abdominal cramps, and blood in my bowels (sometimes extreme amounts). I can't imagine why we are not banning this ingredient, and we are also including it in medecine and even baby formula. This is insane!

Strong evidence from inpatients of some types of cancer, including breast from carrageenan.

If people knew what Carrageenan is, where it comes from, and how large molecules of it can be broken into smaller ones that are very toxic, they would be alarmed it is passed of as GWAS.

Had severe stomach pains. Discussed with my doctor who wanted to do expensive tests. Then I found an article on carrageenan and its side effects. Was shocked how many products contained carrageenan. I stopped consuming ice creams, yogurt, whipping creams, sour creams, etc. - anything with carrageenan - and feel much better. If I would not have stumbled upon an article about the bad side effects of this red seaweed, I would have gone through expensive test unnecessarily. Have to get the word out about this ingredient in many food products that causes inflammation, heart disease, cancer, Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease. People have to be made aware of this dangerous ingredient and we have to stop the companies that are poisoning people with this ingredient. The FDA has to ban this in our foods.

I have been deathly sick in my stomach for years. Constant diarrhea!! A nurse friend of mine told to eliminate all carrageenan from my diet. I have, and I can say I am much, much better!! This dangerous food thickener needs to be banned in America. It is a slow killer, causing multiple health problems!! Please get this additive outbid our foods & sign this petition!!!
