Amazon.com: The Hundred-Year Lie: How to Protect Yourself from the Chemicals That Are Destroying Your Health (9780452288393): Randall Fitzgerald: Books: "This provocative and frightening look at the synthetic chemicals used by the processed foods, pharmaceutical and chemical industries delivers an excellent, up-to-date summary of 'what is really in our food, water, vitamins, prescription drugs, childhood vaccines, cosmetics, and in our homes.' Former Wall Street Journal investigative journalist Fitzgerald (Mugged by the State) takes aim at the belief that 'lab-created synthetics are as benign as—and more effective than—naturally occurring foods and medicines.' The 'hundred-year lie' dates from 1906, the year Congress enacted the Pure Food and Drug Act."
