Life is a series of choices we make that determine how we will spend our life energy and on what.

Diet Milk with Aspartame, No Label Required, Really? by Anne Gordon, R.N.

Aspartame in Milk

Diet Milk with Aspartame, No Label Required, Really?

by Anne Gordon, R.N.

Green Med Information,  4 March 2013

The dairy industry has lost market share due to perceived healthier drinks such as 'rice', 'soy' or 'almond' milk, etc. So they hatched an idea. Why not create 'diet' milk products, adding aspartame, and selling it to children as a 'healthy' diet drink. That's right. Putting aspartame in milk to 'reduce' caloric intake, for healthier, less obese children.

Tasty flavored milk could be created to win back some of the market share, and since many want to reduce obesity, while adding professed nutrition, this could work to increase profits. Sounds good, doesn't it? Instead of sodas, people could consume an entire line of exotic new sweet milks, sour creams, made for less money.

However, there's just one more thing that is chilling here. Very chilling. Today, the FDA allows the dairy industry to use what is termed 'nutritive sweeteners' such as high fructose corn syrup or sugar. These are usually placed on labels for consumers to determine for themselves if they want to consume those.

Yet, the dairy industry is now petitioning the FDA to allow, 'non nutritive sweeteners' (chemicals) such as aspartame, without letting you know. What? At least the FDA has opened public comments until May 21 for anyone interested in 'submitting comments,' however, this short 'comment' period is not well advertised. Have you heard about it?

Aspartame failed FDA testing in the past, because it was shown to be dangerous to the central nervous system.¹ Donald Rumsfeld who had a political career, also worked for Searle, (who sold aspartame) and well, aspartame became okay to consume.  Since then, aspartame has been utilized despite many scientists finding that it is a poison. Maybe a little aspartame is okay? Aspartame is used in a range of products from diet soda's to sauces, and soon, possibly milk, condensed milk, sour cream, etc.

Imagine fake strawberry milk, or chocolate milk and other exotic irradiated pasteurized drinks with aspartame? Ironically, raw milk, is the enemy of the dairy business, because it is thought to create illness. What about sneaking chemicals into your milk? Isn't that potentially a health issue? With all of the negative health information on aspartame, and its potential harm, why would the dairy industry want to hide it? Think about it.

Artificial sweeteners have been allowed in milk for some time, as long as they were properly labeled. So the issue is about 'hiding' what's in your milk, milk products, or other foods. What are we the consumers letting slip by regarding the foods we consume? No labeling of genetically modified foods, and now possibly aspartame in dairy products without a label?  This is not right.

You could still make a difference until the 21^st of May, for public comments. Visit the FDA's Regulations.gov page for directions on how to comment on the issue, listed as Docket No: FDA-2009-P-0147. Do something....or something will be done, and you might never know it until you, or your children suffer from strange ailments.

The time is now.

Press Release: Keshe Foundations Gift To Mankind

 

KESHE FOUNDATION’S UNPARALLELED GIFT TO MANKIND: Signing of the world peace treaty and World peace conference

Food Freedom News,  2 March 2013


The following is a message from:    THE KESHE FOUNDATION

Please Share and Post As Widely As You Possibly Can, Asking Others to Do the Same

Dr. Keshe’s lecture on the new technology already rendering the US’s most advanced weapons, worthless

SIGNING OF THE WORLD PEACE TREATY AND WORLD PEACE CONFERENCE

The Keshe Foundation made a promise that it would release a request and information on its forum …. about the next step in the release of its technologies for bringing peace and equality for Mankind.

The following four PDF documents below in this link are important and need to be understood individually and then collectively as one unified paper.

We have not suggested a place and/or venue in our invitation letter for the peace conference, as we thought that mankind’s choice would be the most appropriate.

This peace conference can be held in Tehran, UN offices in New York, Beijing, Moscow or any another place on earth in a location that is acceptable to all.

The point is not the venue, but to achieve world peace for Mankind.

The date of 21.1.2013 for release of these documents is chosen for its importance and now mankind has 60 days until 21 March 2013 ( see the PDF letters) to set the scene to achieve what his forefathers could not do for thousands of years, by signing himself into accepting peace in its true sense individually and collectively.

As a race man now has the technology in hand to enforce world peace and man collectively has the determination to achieve it.

To be able to achieve world peace and see the process through, the Keshe Foundation is moving its headquarters to a new location and out of its present prison of Belgium, which has been enforced on it by international political pressure for the past nine years.

The Foundation will soon announce where it will make its new home so that we can see this treaty through safely.

In this way all political restrictions and press restriction on the Keshe Foundation will be removed and we will collaborate with all citizens of the world to make sure that the world peace treaty day can be realised.

Please collaborate with the Foundation and let today be the day when man starts a new chapter for humanity. Our goal is for every man on this planet to accept and sign themselves into the world peace treaty with their deeds, their hearts, their soul and in their words.

The Foundation calls upon world citizens to do what they have done in the last twelve months and as individuals to become a MESSENGER OF PEACE for your home, city, nation and mankind, and take the messages in these four letters to all world leaders, world ambassadors, mayors, religious leaders, your neighbour[s], brothers and sisters.

This can be achieved by putting these four letters out everywhere, be it on the net, media, social media, home, work place, palaces and parliaments, and by encouraging your governments, leaders of communities and individuals to sign the treaty and to organise and attend peace conferences organised by you and your nation.

Please do with this message as you did with encouraging your governments to accept the spaceship technology USB key.

I thank you for your support and hope we can achieve together in the near future what has eluded mankind from the beginning of time.

It is time to start a new chapter in the life of man on earth, where peace and serving humanity becomes the centre and focal point of every man and not the false materialistic life of today which has brought about so much misery for man from his inception on this planet.

I cannot imagine that any true man of peace or world leader will refuse to sign and to act upon what he has committed his nation, his faith and himself to by signing this treaty.

PDF An Insight into the Future of Man on Earth

[As you read Dr. Keshe's remarks about extraterrestrial beings in this PDF, please be aware that the United States government's "Embargo of Truth" is over and UFOs and extraterrestrials are now admitted facts, as this press conference discloses in detail, making Dr. Keshe's words all the more meaningful and poignant. 

Watch especially from 19:30 - 20:00, to appreciate that these people have much more advanced technologies and have never harmed us.]

Your Spice Rack as a Medicine Cabinet: 5 Hidden Healers in Your Kitchen

by Elizabeth Renter

Natural Society,  3 March 2013

You don’t have to be a chef to know that some herbs and spices taste good in certain dishes. Likewise, you don’t have to be a professional herbalist to use many of these same spices and herbs to treat and prevent illness and disease. Your kitchen should double as your medicine cabinet, as you’ll often find what you need without having to hit the drug store or the pharmacy.

While we could write a book on healing herbs and spices (many such books have been written), we’ll just give you a brief run-down of some of the more commonly overlooked herbs and spices with healing properties. Here are 5 healers that can be found in your kitchen.

1. Sage

Common sage is often used in meat dishes and in cooking with root vegetables. But sage has many health benefits. Made in a tea, you can use the herb sage for sore throat relief, to soothe digestion, calm a cough, and even boost memory. One study found consuming sage can improve scores on memory recall tests. Maybe best of all, you can grow your own.

 

2. Turmeric

The many benefits of this golden yellow spice are really no secret, unless you haven’t been following natural health news at all in recent months. It’s a powerful antioxidant, can be used to detox the liver, and even relieves pain. There is evidence that turmeric can protect against Alzheimer’s disease and even prevent breast cancer. Perhaps the most documented benefits of turmeric is in its ability to fight cancer cells.

3. Oregano

You might put it on your pizza or in your pasta dishes, but what you probably didn’t realize is how oregano could be benefiting your health. Oregano and the oil derived from it has been shown to encourage weight loss, promote healthy digestion, treat sinus infections and even sooth toothaches. It is an anti-bacterial, antioxidant, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, and anti-histamine herb. And like sage, you can easily grow your own to experience oregano benefits.

 

4. Cinnamon

Everyone should be getting some cinnamon in their daily diet. This spice is great on everything from desserts to teas. And it’s good for managing diabetes, promoting a healthy heart, fighting Alzheimer’s disease, arthritis, cancer, and PMS.

5. Basil

More and more you can find fresh and actually live basil plants in the grocery store produce section. This isn’t only good for your salads and pesto sauce, it’s great for your health. Basil can improve circulation, reduce cholesterol oxidation, reduce inflammation, and boost immunity. It can also treat stomach cramps, nausea, and headaches. Check out some information on sweet basil, one of numerous basil varieties.

There are numerous other herbs and spices in your kitchen right now that are great for your health and can double as medicine. What are your favorite spice-rack healers?

Support A GMO Free New York, USA

Welcome to GMO Free NY! 

 

Our Mission: Mandatory labeling of GMO foods in NYS!

 

If we are what we eat, let us know what we're eating!

GMO Free NY is a grassroots campaign working in conjunction with allies in the nationwide Coalition of States for GMO Labeling to get a mandatory GMO labeling law passed in New York State in 2013.

 

We're not here to tell you about the controversies surrounding GMOs — the human health and environmental risks, the decreased crop yields and increased pesticide/herbicide use farmers are experiencing, the patenting of seeds — there are plenty of other web sites already doing an excellent job of this.

 

We're here because we want to put an end to the secrecy about the presence of GMO ingredients in our food. Because we want to stop being unwitting guinea pigs for the biotech industry. Because the FDA is still turning a deaf ear to the majority of Americans who say they want GMOs labeled. Because we deserve the right to make informed choices when we go food shopping!

We deserve to have the right to know!

It's time to label GMOs!

Join the fight for food justice!

 

We ALL need to be food fighters! That means fighting for food justice across America, and especially in the inner cities where the availability of healthy food is limited (by design).

I can confirm there is an agenda in America right now to keep inner city people diseased, dumbed-down, cognitively impaired and nutritionally deficient. The vector of attack is the food supply and vaccines. The motivation behind this is to make sure people can be easily dominated by the system (corporate fascism conspiring with government). The food is poison, and it kills orders of magnitude more people than guns, or auto accidents or anything else, including pharmaceutical medicine.

There is an epidemic of degenerative disease that's being thrust upon inner city citizens in an almost genocidal stealth attack. This is the thing we need to wake up and recognize if we hope to stand against the "industry of death" that manufactures the food.

I am a food fighter and always will be. The creators of this video are food fighters. Ultimately, we are all spiritual warriors because what we're fighting for is more than mere substance; we are fighting for the soul of humanity.

Will you join us in this fight?

If so, help spread the word on this amazing video.

Lyrics:

That's what the streets them say.
That's what police them say.
That's what the Babylon say.
Put cola upon lips
and get popped the same way now.
That's what The Pentagon say.
That's what the generals say.
That's what the empire say.
Put death down your throat,
you get dropped the same way.

There's a war going on inside,
no man is safe from:
DDTs, PCBs,
every corner in the hood got a KFC
or McD's. It's crack speed like RED
Bull-ish they pulpit -- so caffeine,
Kit Kat like a click-clack holes in your genes
Cuz everything at market ain't all what it seems.
Little Debbie bussing biscuits at sugar-high fiends.
Ain't nothing but a G thing --
GMO, MSG, genocide of street gangs.
Aspartame or street cane.
Monsanto is Rambo.
Round Up with ammo.
Who would have known you can die from a diet
Diabetes and the -itis from the dairy and the dose
of the high fructose
cuz your ribs too close
so you might start a riot.
Might be a FOOD FIGHTER!

Have Faith - A Poem by M.N. Hopkins

Have Faith

An Angel Fell.

An Angel fell into a dark abyss.

A Human stood at the edge of Darkness and Light with clear seeing eyes and said,

"Have faith"

The Angel fell deeper and deeper into the darkness.

Again, the Human said,

"Have faith"

The Angel continued to fall.

Deeper and deeper, closer to the imaginary point of no return.

Once again,  said the Human,

"Have faith"

The Angel paused and looked up toward the Human and said,

"So, it will be"

The Angel began his flight upward and outward of this temporary darkness.

Back to His rightful Home within the Realm of Light.
