We all MUST understand that Melamine is used in INDUSTRIAL PRODUCTION
- - - - - it CANNOT be eaten.
2.Why is Melamine added to milk powder? The most important nutrient in milk is protein. And, Melamine has this same protein that contains 'NITROGEN'
Adding
Melamine into milk reduces the actual milk content required, and
therefore it is cheaper than all milk. So it lowers the capital required
in the production of milk products. Therefore it earns the business man
more profit! Below is Melamine; doesn't it look like milk / milk
powder? It doesn't have any smell, so cannot be detected.
3.When was it discovered that it had been added to milk products. In
2007, US cats and dogs died suddenly, they found that pet food from
China contained Melamine. Early in 2008, in China , an abnormal increase
in infant cases of kidney stones was reported.
In August 2008, China Sanlu Milk Powder tested for Melamine
Sept.
2008, the New Zealand government asked China to investigate this
problem Sept. 21, 2008, they found that many food products in Taiwan
tested for Melamine
4.What happens when Melamine ingested and digested?
Melamine remains inside the kidneys. It forms into stones blocking the
tubes. Pain will be imminent and the person cannot urinate. Kidney(s)
will then swell.
Although
surgery can remove the stones, it causes irreversible kidney damage. It
can lead to the loss of kidney function and will require kidney
dialysis or lead to death because of uremia. What is dialysis? In fact,
it should be called 'blood washing'; it is filtering all of the body's
blood into a machine and then returning the blood back to the body.
The
whole process takes 4 hours; and it is necessary to have dialysis once
every 3 days for the rest of your life. Below: A dialysis center

A small hole is required in the arm to insert the sub-dialysis catheter.
Why is it much more serious in babies? A baby's kidneys are so very small
and they drink a lot of milk powder. Below: A baby undergoing dialysis.
China currenty has 13,000 infants hospitalized
It does not matter how much Melamine a human being ingested (ate) (took). The important point is:
'MELAMINE CANNOT BE EATEN!'
5.What foods are to be avoided? Foods from China that contain dairy products should be avoided.
Remember: Foods with cream or milk should be avoided.
