Preservatives can be avoided by reading labels, researching online, and finding suppliers who sell food and products without them.
BHA in Food
If you eat potato chips, lard, butter, cereal, instant
mashed potatoes, preserved meat, beer, baked goods, dry beverage and dessert
mixes, chewing gum and many other foods, you are eating butylated
hydroxyanisole (BHA) - a preservative that prevents food from going rotten. The latest environmental research reports that "the International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies BHA as a possible human carcinogen, and the European Commission on Endocrine Disruption has listed BHA as a Category 1 priority substance, based on evidence that it interferes with hormone function."
You can avoid BHA by buying fresh food, cooking and baking yourself, and even making your own beer.

BHA in Skin Products
BHA is also in skin products, and is often recommended for
aging skin since it has many of the same effects that estrogen does. On Skin Deep, a cosmetic database, BHA is
rated "highly hazardous" (9-10 out of 10).
