Received via email. I don't want to incite you to "wickedness" this July 4th, or any other day, but just in case you are tempted beyond recourse to eat that hotdog, here is some healthful help!

Picture this … you walk into a backyard BBQ and you see sizzling hot dogs, hamburgers, and all the fixings displayed on a red checkered table cloth. You decide to go for one, but don’t dig in without taking this supplement first.

Nitrites and nitrates convert into dangerous nitrosamines in the absence of vitamin C. Back in the late ’80s when my son was small, a big treat was a meatball sandwich at the Subway on the corner. When he wanted to go, we always made sure to give him a chewable vitamin C before he walked out the door.

Putting vitamin C in the stomach within 15 to 20 minutes of eating these meats will greatly reduce or eliminate any conversion into the carcinogenic nitrosamines. We all eat hot dogs, hamburgers, or cured meats on occasion at 4th of July parties
