New Danger in Flying everyone needs to know about

It seams as though up to 60% of all flights can be a sickening exposure to PCBs. Protect yourself with a personal Air Supply. The Gaiam or Wain look like the best choices on the market that I could find




The Boeing 787 is the only plan I could find that did not use

Something fishy in every store in the US

OK here we go again. Lies Lies Lies. When will the human race get out of this idea that it is acceptable to out right lie in order to sell us things we would not otherwise buy, especially when it comes to our health and well being? This is for our families, friends our children our future and our karma. What we put out into the world will always and inevitably come back to us in some shape or form. Is it really that much more difficult to do things the right way? Are we crocked or lazy, are we lost or delusional, are we naive or just plain stupid? What is wrong with doing things right? Yes perhaps the FDA should be on top of this more but really, come-on. We simply can’t put an inspector on ever box of food that comes into or out of our food supply; that is just impossible and we shouldn’t need to. The focus here on eliminating the problem is in the wrong place. What we need is a worldwide education and awakening of the huge over all affect the food producers have on the world and their omnipotent responsibility. The must feel there place of importance and respect the laws of nature and respect their selves enough to hold grandeur to this position. Yes they are godlike in their power over the people of this planet and should be wanting to do what is best for human kind, not focusing so much on their economic position. As soon as something becomes about money, its true value is lost.

Whole Foods Organics can not be trusted

 A livestock drug banned in 160 nations and responsible for hyperactivity, muscle breakdown
and 10 percent mortality in pigs has been approved by the FDA.

The beta agonist ractopamine, a repartitioning agent that increases protein synthesis, was recruited for livestock use when researchers found the drug, used in asthma, made mice more muscular.

Ractopamine is started as the animal nears slaughter.

How does a drug marked, "Not for use in humans. Individuals with cardiovascular disease should exercise special caution to avoid exposure. Use protective clothing, impervious gloves, protective eye wear, and a NIOSH-approved dust mask" become "safe" in human food? With no washout period?

The drug is banned in Europe, Taiwan and China, and more than 1,700 people have been "poisoned" from eating pigs fed the drug since 1998, but ractopamine is used in 45 percent of U.S. pigs and 30 percent of ration-fed cattle.

So I just got this today from my friend on Facebook Chef Believe, evidently passed on from Vanessa Johansson http://www.meetup.com/slc-rawfood-superheroes-com/members/5900104/

As I never really trusted Sun Food and their over bloated prices this comes to my inbox. Please read and repost as much as possible.

I have been meaning to post this for a month now and finally have found a moment to do so.
As some of you know I have been investigating the raw cacao industry and raw powder and butter in particular. You heard it here first that basically every cacao product on the market today is actually cooked, and as of right now Essential Living Foods, Big Tree Organics and the paste from Ultimate Superfoods (not the powder) is actually a raw product.

Well, I have a grand finale to this story. After many conversations and emails I have discovered some important info about Sunfood, David Wolfes company.

First of all, it is not David Wolfes company.

As of at least 12 months ago, it has been owned by Doug Harbison, a non raw foodist non superhero cooked wonder bread old school business executive. David Wolfe makes no money off of Sunfood and owns no stock in Sunfood. He tried to get Sunfood off of cooked chocolate products and the owners would not listen to him. In fact, they have over 8 lawsuits against David Wolfe. 

I spoke to the current owner of Sunfood...

What are the health benefits of taking xylitol? Studies have shown that xylitol may have health benefits on preventing tooth cavities, ear infections and periodontal diseases

NOTICE: Consumption of xylitol decreases levels of Strptococcus mutans in saliva and plaque and inferentially lowers the risk of caries. Previously, xylitol has been mistakenly stated as a potential anti-cancer agent in this article. In fact, There are no studies showing that Xylitol is "anti-cancer" though, an in vitro
study suggested that xylitol  butyric derivatives may have anti-cancer activities. [A1]

WHERE CAN WE FIND XYLITOL? Plums, strawberries, and raspberries

are the rich sources of xylitol which has been demonstrated to have
benefits on  preventing tooth cavities, plaque formation and ear infection
[1,2] and helping improve skin and bone conditions in rats.

RESEARCH FINDINGS

DENTAL CAVITIES AND PLAGUES

Studies have showed that xylitol gums, toothpastes and candies could
help develop fewer dental cavities than those receiving either placebo or
no treatment [3-9,14-10]. Xylitol may prevent cavities by inhibiting the
growth of the Streptococcus mutans bacteria. [10] A double-blind placebo-
controlled study of 1,677 children showed that xylitol-enriched toothpaste
user developed significantly fewer cavities than those used the floride-
only toothpaste over a three year period. [21] While, a double-blinded
study showed that the effect of xylitol on developing fewer cavities was in
a dose-dependent fashion. [20]

Researchers from Thailand found xylitol chewing gums could effectively
reduce the levels of mutans streptococci in plaque and saliva in a study
of 91 children, aged 10-12. [26] Researchers from Finland discovered
that use of erythritol and xylitol was associated with a statistically
significant reduction in the plaque and saliva levels of mutans
streptococci from a study of 136 teenagers. [27]

Genetically Modified Crops Genetically modified crops are those which have been altered genetically for several reasons. Those reasons might include reducing the maturation time of the plant, increasing nutrients, yields, and stress tolerance, and creating a plant that can withstand diseases, and heavier applications of pesticides and herbicides. The concerns about these genetically modified crops include the potential human health impacts, including cancers, nutritional problems, allergens, and the transfer of antibiotic resistance markers resulting in antibiotic resistant diseases. In addition, there is a great potential for environmental impacts, including the unintended transfer of genetic effects through cross-pollination to native plants, the unknown effects on other organisms (e.g., beneficial insects, soil microbes), and the loss of plant and animal biodiversity. Here's a list of the most common genetically modified crops:

This bill would repeal key sections of the Dietary Supplement Health and
Education Act, which  guarantees consumers the right to purchase dietary
supplements.

Please contact your senators now to tell them not to so-sponsor this Anti-Consumer, Anti-Health Freedom Bill.

McCain's so-called Dietary Supplement Safety Act (DSSA) would repeal key sections of the popular Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA). It would give the FDA unilateral power, with little or no scientific justification, to ban vitamin supplements except for those produced by Big Pharma corporations.

If McCain's bill passes, we can look to Europe for a snapshot of what we may be in for: EFSA, the European Food Safety Authority, has sharply reduced the list of available supplements and is in process of reducing potencies to ridiculous levels, such as less beta carotene than can be found in half of a large carrot. Europeans already look to the US to obtain their dietary supplements. If this bill passes, where will we obtain ours?

Please take action immediately. Tell your senators NOT to co-sponsor the McCain's anti-consumer legislation and to do everything in their power to defeat it. Then forward this to your friends and family and ask them to do the same!

The hoax that didn't fool the internet. This hoax was a fear tactic used buy the government and the medical industry that we caught. What about all the others BS we didn't?

(NaturalNews) The great swine flu hoax of 2009 is now falling apart at the seams as one country after another unloads hundreds of millions of doses of unused swine flu vaccines. No informed person wants the injection anymore, and the entire fear-based campaign to promote the vaccines has now been exposed as outright quackery and propaganda.

Even doctors are now calling the pandemic a complete hoax. As reported on FoxNews, Dr. Wolfgang Wodarg, a leading health authority in Europe, says that drug companies "organized a 'campaign of panic' to put pressure on the World Health Organization (WHO) to declare a pandemic. He believes it is 'one of the greatest medicine scandals of the century,' and he has called for an inquiry." (http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933...)
