Canola Oil a.k.a Rape Seed Oil

For a long time, I have been telling people to avoid canola oil at all costs.

Some people took this advice seriously and others did not.  Some people totally disagreed with my advice while extolling the virtues of canola oil as a very healthy fat which only demonstrated how successful the canola industry has been in selling this poison to the public.

Twenty-five years ago the FDA banned the use of canola oil in infant formulas.  The FDA knew back then that canola was bad for babies and now it is suddenly ok for everyone else.  Why was it banned?  Because canola oil very effectively retards growth!

Animal studies proved that canola oil depleted vitamin E and increased the rigidity of membranes, which is a major factor in causing accelerated aging as well as being a trigger for degenerative disease.  Lipitor™ , many other drugs, as well as phthalates from plastic water bottles, also deplete vitamin E, a critical nutrient.

The depletion of E will cause chronic illnesses such as heart disease, cancer and diabetes since more and more people are ingesting canola oil in processed foods, baked goods, salad dressing, fried foods, and candies.

Almost every place you turn today you will find canola oil, so aggressive and successful is their marketing.

In the U.S. and Canada, no human studies have ever been conducted with canola oil.

Canada does not want these studies as it is their largest export product.  Canola oil is Canada oil.

Is Your Diet Making You Sick?

I have lost count of the times I hear the lament “I always eat healthy — so why am I sick”?

What is distressing is that these people really work at eating healthy, but to no avail.

They don’t drink soda. They do drink lots of water.  They don’t eat cold cuts that contain nitrates or other prepared meats or foods.  They eat lots of fruits and vegetables as they should and as is recommended.

You would think, as they think, that with such a healthy diet, they would be getting all the nutrients they need for a healthy life.

So why are they getting sick?

The answer is—because consuming conventional food, they are not getting the vitamins, minerals and other nutrients they think they are getting.

Their life is being sabotaged by the large conglomerate farms who are the major producers of our conventional fruits, vegetables, grains, milk and cheese.

The same is true for the factory farms that provide us with the major supply of our meat and fish.

The soil of conventional farms is depleted and has been for the last 80 years.

It's Food Care!

It is a given that all life begins at the cellular level.

It is also a given that for your cells to function as healthy cells, they must have the energy level they were designed for, 70 to 90 millivolts.

At that level your cells easily absorb nutrients, convert the nutrients into usable components the body needs, then rids itself of the resultant waste created by this conversion process.

Energy also allows your cells to rid themselves of the toxins they absorb from the nutrients (food) you feed them.

When the nutrients you feed your cells contain high levels of toxins, as do most packaged and conventional foods available to us today, the cell’s energy becomes overtaxed, dissipated, and unable to rid themselves of all the toxins.

This condition causes a lowering of the cells millivolt energy level. This results in cellular dysfunction, inflammation, and the beginnings of disease.

Example: Cancer cells have a measurable energy level of 15 to 20 millivolts. Read the rest of this entry »

Health Reform?

Health Care Reform? – If it wasn’t so tragic, it would be a joke!

What is health care reform anyway?

It would appear to me that health care reform would mean ways to keep people from getting sick. Ways to keep people healthy.

That to me is real health care reform.

Instead we have the whole country battling over drugs and medical care while every year the number of people who develop a chronic disease grows larger and larger.

What is wrong with our Presidents — past, present, and probably future?

What is wrong with our senators and members of congress?  Do they all have their heads buried in the sand or is it all about greed and self-interest?

This is not a Democrat, Republican, or Independent issue— it’s about everyone!

We the people are being Read the rest of this entry »

Hazardous Food Additives

This is a special report from OCA (Organic Consumers Association).

Monosodium glutamate (MSG) is one of the most common and hazardous food additives on the market.

MSG is reportedly more toxic than alcohol, tobacco and many drugs.

MSG is an excitotoxin, so it tricks your brain into wanting to eat more and more foods containing the ingredient, even if you are already full.

Side effects of MSG include: obesity, eye damage, headaches, depression, fatigue and disorientation.

Food manufacturers know that health-conscious consumers try to avoid MSG, so it is oftentimes not listed in a product’s ingredients.

MSG is banned in organic foods.

According to USDA and FDA regulations, if MSG Read the rest of this entry »

Let me ask you a question…how much do you really know about the food you eat that you buy from your local supermarket and are serving to your family?

Are you hungry for change? If so, watch the provocative new film called “Food, Inc.”.

Here’s a short video trailer for you to watch.
NOTE: Video takes a few moments to load before it starts playing.

“In Food, Inc., filmmaker Robert Kenner lifts the veil on our nation’s food industry, exposing the highly mechanized underbelly that has been hidden from the American consumer with the consent of our government’s regulatory agencies, USDA and FDA.

Our nation’s food supply is now controlled by a handful of corporations that often put profit ahead of consumer health, the livelihood of the American farmer, the safety of workers and our own environment.

We have bigger-breasted chickens, the perfect pork chop, herbicide-resistant soybean seeds, even tomatoes that won’t go bad, but we also have new strains of E. coli—the harmful bacteria that causes illness for an estimated 73,000 Americans annually.

We are riddled with widespread obesity, particularly among children, and an epidemic level of diabetes among adults.”

To your good heath & longevity.

It's Your Choice!

Most of the public never gets to hear about the many proven ways to heal ourselves  because our medical profession is an antiquated dinosaur bound to drugs.

Our FDA does not, and will not, recognize “so called” alternative ways.

In fact, the FDA has made it illegal to claim that a nutritional product or alternative way can heal you. If it is not a drug approved by the FDA, your cure claims will subject you to heavy fines and or jail.

Over the past decade it has been made very clear the strong influence Big Pharma has over our FDA.  Sometimes you would think they were running the FDA.

To make our health conserns even worse, our USDA, who should be insuring that we get safe, nutritional food to eat, is highly influenced by giant food processors allowing them, through over processing, to destroy much of the nutrients in the packaged food sold in our food markets.

Most all of these nutrient deficient foods also contain Read the rest of this entry »

Many times we are asked about adding soy to the diet.

The debate has many sides to the conversation, however, there was an interesting article about non-organic soy at the Organic Consumers Association website titled Boycott Non-Organic, GMO, Hexane-Processed Soy Organic vs. Conventional Soy written by Alexis Baden-Mayer, Esq., Organic Consumers Association, July 1, 2009

Here is the article for your review and if you wish to read more please select the article link title listed above.
