Understanding the Hidden Dangers in Your Fresh Produce
In grocery stores worldwide, consumers are drawn to vibrant displays of fresh fruits and vegetables, unaware that what appears fresh may be concealing potentially harmful preservatives. One such preservative, Apeel, has come under scrutiny for its chemical composition and potential health risks. This in-depth investigation explores what Apeel is, its connections to powerful global organizations, and why health advocates are increasingly concerned about its widespread use on fresh produce.
The Evolution of Food Preservation
Food preservation has evolved dramatically over the centuries. Before modern refrigeration, preserving food posed significant challenges. By the early 1900s, companies like Dow and Monsanto had introduced various chemicals to extend food shelf life—formaldehyde, copper sulfate, and other substances entered our food supply to make products appear fresher for longer periods.

The 20th century witnessed food transitioning from natural to heavily processed forms. Even health food stores began acknowledging the use of waxes and preservatives on produce—not merely for aesthetic purposes but to slow deterioration and mask the true age of fruits and vegetables.
What Exactly Is Apeel?
Apeel (sometimes marketed as EdaPeel or OrganiPeel) is a coating applied to fruits and vegetables that significantly extends their shelf life. Marketed as an environmentally friendly alternative to plastic packaging, it creates an invisible barrier that:
- Prevents oxidation
- Slows moisture loss
- Dramatically extends produce freshness
The concerning aspect? This coating cannot be washed off, forcing consumers to ingest it without consent.
According to the documentary evidence, Apeel has been approved for use even on USDA organic produce under the name “OrganiPeel”—a revelation that has alarmed health-conscious consumers who specifically choose organic products to avoid chemical treatments.

The Bill Gates and WEF Connection
Apeel’s creation and expansion have strong ties to influential organizations:
- Founded in 2012 by James Rogers after receiving a $100,000 grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
- Has raised approximately $110 million in financing
- Recognized as a World Economic Forum (WEF) Technology Pioneer
- Part of the WEF Global Innovators Community
- CEO James Rogers is a WEF Young Global Leader
These connections have raised questions about potential ulterior motives beyond food preservation, with some critics suggesting links to broader population control agendas.

The Chemical Composition Raising Red Flags
While Apeel presents itself as plant-based and natural, analyzing its composition reveals concerning ingredients:
- The active ingredient listed is citric acid (0.66%)
- The remaining 99.34% is classified as “other ingredients”
- These other ingredients include mono and diglycerides derived from plant oils
More troubling, Apeel’s patent reveals it’s not just for preservation but also for “sanitizing” produce. The sanitizing agents mentioned include:
- Ethanol
- Methanol
- Acetone
- Isopropyl alcohol
- Propanol
- Ethyl acetate
Health advocates point out that several of these chemicals are known to cause adverse health effects when ingested or absorbed through skin contact.
Heavy Metal Concerns
According to the investigations cited, these diglycerides can contain neutralizing agents to prevent bacterial and fungal growth. These agents potentially include:
- Palladium (highly toxic and carcinogenic)
- Arsenic (harmful to eyes, skin, liver, kidneys, lungs, and lymphatic system)
- Lead (affects multiple body systems, particularly harmful to children)
- Cadmium (linked to kidney disease, bone density loss, and cancer)
- Mercury (a known neurotoxin)
Consumer Experiences with Apeel-Treated Produce
Consumers have reported unusual characteristics in produce believed to be treated with Apeel:
- Avocados that don’t ripen properly
- Rubber-like texture in fruits
- Produce that doesn’t decompose naturally
- Fruits maintaining an unnaturally fresh appearance for extended periods
One consumer testimony described cutting open an avocado to discover it had a rubbery texture that could be twisted without breaking down—completely unlike natural produce.
Other Concerning Preservatives
Apeel isn’t the only questionable preservative being used on fresh produce. The documentary also highlights “SmartFresh,” which:
- Uses methyl cyclopropene (MCP) as its active ingredient
- Is applied by gassing fruits in sealed chambers
- Can extend shelf life so dramatically that fruits may be a year old before being sold
- Is described by manufacturers as a “simple hydrocarbon molecule” (similar to petroleum-based products like butane and propane)
Another concerning practice is the use of “Produce Max,” which contains sodium hypochlorite—essentially bleach—sprayed directly onto fruits and vegetables in some grocery stores.
The Deeper Agenda?
Critics suggest these preservatives serve purposes beyond profit:
- Population control through slow poisoning
- Targeting specific communities with harmful substances
- Intentionally reducing nutritional value of foods
- Creating dependency on industrial food systems
Protecting Yourself and Your Family
In light of these concerning findings, here are steps consumers can take:
- Grow your own food when possible to ensure complete control over what you consume
- Be wary of produce with unnaturally long shelf life or that doesn’t ripen properly
- Question certifications from organizations like WHO, WEF, or Gates Foundation
- Support local farmers who use traditional farming methods
- Ask grocery stores about their preservation methods and whether they use products like Apeel or SmartFresh
Spiritual Perspective
For those with spiritual beliefs, there is comfort in biblical guidance: “These signs will accompany those who believe: in my name they will drive out demons; they will speak in new tongues; and when they drink deadly poison, it will not hurt them at all.” This offers reassurance that faith can provide protection against harmful substances.
Conclusion
The use of Apeel and similar preservatives on our food supply raises significant questions about transparency, consent, and long-term health impacts. While extending shelf life and reducing food waste are worthy goals, they should never come at the expense of public health. As consumers become more aware of these practices, the demand for truly natural, untreated produce will likely grow—forcing the industry to reconsider its reliance on potentially harmful chemical preservatives.
By staying informed and making conscious choices about our food, we can protect ourselves and advocate for a food system that prioritizes health over shelf life.
