General Mills Cereal Brand ‘Loaded’ With Toxins, Report Says

By Danielle

A new report claims the General Mills’ cereal brand called ‘Trix LOADED’ tested for high levels of heavy metals and agrochemicals.

“General Mills, Inc. on Feb. 1 launched ‘LOADED,’ a new cereal line with ‘puffed-up larger-than-life squares’ of General Mills’ Cinnamon Toast Crunch, Trix, and Cocoa Puffs cereals filled with artificially flavored vanilla creme,” The Epoch Times reports.

Moms Across America (MAA), an organization that strives to educate and empower mothers and others with actions and solutions to create healthy communities, reported the testing results.

“Please tell your elected official that we have a physical and mental health crisis in America,” Moms Across America said.

Moms Across America wrote:

  • Levels of toxic heavy metals arsenic and cadmium present in two samples of Loaded Trix flavor were 200-400% higher than EPA allowable levels in drinking water.
  • Aluminum levels were as high as 3500 ppb, making Trix Loaded cereal a toxic way to start the day according to EU standards, if eaten daily. Aluminum levels were 1,365% and 1,650% higher than the EPA maximum allowable level in drinking water
