Did you know that more than 95% of the Roxarsone fed to chickens is excreted unchanged in chicken waste, which is regularly applied as fertilizer in surrounding farm fields and commercial fertilizer? And exposure to inorganic arsenic has been linked to heart disease, cancer, diabetes, and decline in brain function- arsenic is in Roxarsone. In chicken feed they put Roxarsone (an arsenic containing chemical used to promote growth, especially of the breast and to make the meat appear pinker and healthier in the grocery store). In the Roxarsone the arsenic starts out as organic arsenic but inside the chicken it turns into inorganic, which is much more concentrated and toxic!
