Results: Antibiotics (enrofloxacin, chloramphenicol and nitrofuranzone) that are banned in the US and other countries due to their carcinogenic effects were used in shrimp farming. 7 – APPLE JUICEIn 2011, Dr. Mehmet Oz reported that apple juice from China contained very high levels of arsenic. Another study published by Consumer Reports magazine found that 10% of apple juices tested exceeded the arsenic levels required by standards. The arsenic found in the products was not organic; instead, it was toxic and dangerous.
