Breaking news from FDA: Cancer-causing chemicals found in popular heartburn medicine

(NaturalHealth365) There’s something shady about an industry that tells people to pop heartburn medicine – as a “first line of defense” against common ailments like a burning stomach.

Think about it: If the cause of heartburn is mostly lifestyle-related, you’d think heartburn treatments would simply focus on lifestyle – right? Well, not so, says big pharma.

According to the drug industry, all you need to do is take a popular heartburn medicine like ranitidine (brand name Zantac). Ignoring the nasty side effects of ranitidine, T.V. commercials continue to push the product and suggest that somehow you’ll magically feel better by popping some pills and not changing your eating habits.

Unfortunately, nasty side effects aren’t the only thing people taking Zantac should be worried about. Multiple media outlets are now reporting that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has found cancer-causing chemicals in Zantac.
