After visiting the original McDonalds in California, Keith J. Kramer and his wife’s uncle, Matthew Burns opened their first Insta-Burger King restaurant in Jacksonville, Florida in 1953. 6 years later, the struggling company was bought by two of its franchisees, James McLamore and David R. Edgerton. They changed the name to Burger King and grew the company over the next 8 years to include 250+ locations. In 1967, the two men sold Burger King to the Pillsbury Company.

In 1978, the Pillsbury company hired McDonald’s executive Donald N. Smith who restructured corporate business practices, adjusted franchise agreements and created a broader menu. But sales still declined and the company was sold 4 more times.

3G Capital of Brazil, is the current owners of Burger King. Burger King had a rough start but has survived to compete with the most popular food chains in the world. Unfortunately their food items aren’t as robust as the company has grown to be.

The top menu items like burger king chicken sandwich are full of excessive amounts of calories and other questionable ingredients.

The “Impossible” Burger

Just recently, Burger King added the “Impossible Whopper” to its menu. They present the burger as the healthiest alternative to regular burgers but what they are not disclosing to the public is that is it full of GMOs and chemicals like MSG.

The plant-based “imitation” meat patty is made from heme, which comes from a genetically modified yeast to make the patties taste and look like meet.

The following ingredients are in the majority of the food items on Burger Kings’ menu.

Sugar and corn sugar (high fructose corn syrup).

Rats fed HFCS gained 300% more fat than those being fed (even slightly more amounts of) regular sugar or sugar from fruit. It also fattens your heart with bad cholesterol, causing plaque build up, leading to hypertension, heart disease and even stroke. Liver, gallbladder and kidneys process HFCS. It is highly destructive to the liver and can cause fatty liver. Scarring of the liver diminishes its ability to process out toxins that will make you sick. HFCS is also high in Mercury levels. Exposure (in young, growing children especially) can result in irreversible brain and nervous system damage.

Soy

Soy is higher in phytoestrogen than any other food. Phytoestrogens are plant based estrogen that mimic the estrogen in our body. Consuming high amounts of phytoestrogen, is the leading cause of breast cancer, endometriosis, uterine fibroids, infertility and low libido.

• Soy is also the king of cell Goitrogens (thyroid suppressors).
• Phytlates found in soy block mineral absorption.
• Also found in Soy, Trypsin inhibitors, inhibits proper digestion of protein.
• 93% of Soy is genetically modified.

Partially hydrogenated soybean oil
Is an unnatural man made fat (from one of the most unhealthy oils-soybean oil) that causes cellular dysfunction. This dysfunction can cause cancer, autoimmune disease, diabetes, obesity, asthma, heart disease, bone degeneration, increased levels of “bad” cholesterol and decreased levels of “good” cholesterol, reduces immune function, creates reproductive problems and causes interference with our body’s ability to utilize omega-3 fats.

Hydrogenated Palm kernel oil

The molecules of this new material is one molecule away from being plastic. Eating this product can lead to high cholesterol, Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s, ADHD and other various emotional and physical ailments.

Flour (gluten)

Gluten can cause serious problems in people with Celiac disease and gluten sensitivities. Symptoms could include: stomach upset, asthma-like symptoms, anaphylaxis, rash, localized itching, congestion, itchy eyes and face, abdominal pain, cramps, vomiting, diarrhea, mental confusion or dizziness, weight loss, failure to thrive in young children, depression, irritability, fatigue, chronic constipation, decreased appetite, mouth sores, anemia, seizures and numbing of the hands and feet.

Monosodium Glutamate (MSG), Disodium Guanylate and Disodium Inosinate
These ingredients are used as flavor enhancers.
MSG has been labeled as an excitotoxin because it is thought to have the ability to overstimulate cells to the point of death. Some people link MSG to headaches, flushing, poor concentration and diseases like fibromyalgia. Research has documented effects of MSG causing burning in the mouth, muscle fatigue, stomach upset, obesity and hormonal fluctuations.

Disodium Guanylate is often derived from seaweed or fish. It is mostly harmless on its own. When it is combined with MSG and Inosinate, it is recommended to be avoided by people suffering from gout or uric acid kidney stones.
