Giant Myths you should be concerned about
Shopping guide to find NON GMO foods
When we visited Holland and some of Diana’s old school chums, we were struck by the fresh taste of the foods. This is in no small part due to the fact that foods in Holland are minimally processed, raised organically and non GMO (genetically modified organisms).
One of Diana’s elementary school friends, Jack De Rooij, is a biological engineer and I asked him what his company thought of GMO foods. His answer was enlightening. “We have an issue of conscious since we do not allow GMO food in Holland. So we sold our technology to Monsanto!”
Genetically modified foods pose a huge danger to the wellness of our population and that of the world. While we are lobbying for universal healthcare reform, we are allowing (even promoting) GMO as a way to supply food to the world. Our “friends” at Monsanto keep promoting GMO as a way to increase crop yield and feed the world. The difficulty with this errant “truth” is that GMO crops fail much more often than “standard” crops. (I never thought I would ever have to differentiate between the two).
Fact is, we do not have a food shortage in the world. We have a distribution problem.
Monsanto scientists are so often quoted as saying that genetic modification has been going on for years with plant hybridization but the difference is that GMO actually splices and/or inserts DNA with viruses or bacteria into the plant or animal. It is one thing to breed and/or hybridize a plant or animal and an entirely different thing to create a genetically modified specie that humans and animals cannot digest nor will these species propagate on their own.
In other words, you cannot grow more food from these plants seeds depending entirely upon the industry to provide us with new seed every time we wish to plant. In other words, your food supply is patented, owned and supplied by, for example, Monsanto. Disregard your personal health. If allowed to continue, you will never own your own food supply.
You want healthcare reform? Start with the food supply and what is allowed in the food. Which foods are GMO will surprise you! Fight back by not buying it.
Second myth(s) is perceived diseases “cured” by modern drugs. Heart disease is often touted as a direct result of high cholesterol, The fact is, more people die of heart attacks due to low cholesterol than high cholesterol. In fact, since the advent of statin drugs some two decades ago, heart attacks have tripled!
Statin drugs, for example, represent a huge multi billion dollar market and their sale is based on a 20 year old lie…that cholesterol kills. We’ve heard it so often, we actually believe it. Doctors believe it so much so they, in good conscious, prescribe it all the time.
The United States represents about 1% of the world population. We consume 50% of the world’s pharmaceuticals and we are rated dead last by the World Health Organization in overall health.
The issue is actually dietary. When LDL’s (the so called bad cholesterol) are damaged by free radicals, it converts to homocysteine. This elevates your risk factor of coronary artery disease by a huge percentage. This is why taking good antioxidants like grapeseed or pine bark extract will help protect you from CAD. I emphasize good because this assumes you are taking non GMO extracts and this brings us back to our friends at big Pharma.
Lately, we have heard much from the drug companies promoting the miracle of Resveratrol. This, as I pointed out in a newsletter a few months ago, is nothing more than a substance discovered over 50 years ago and renamed by the drug companies who are now claiming it as their own and promoted by everyone from Dr. Oz on Oprah Winfrey to Barbara Walters and Morley Safer.
You want healthcare reform? Start with our food supply. When was the last time you heard a report from the media about the horrible condition of our food? Can you see where this is all going? Your food is your problem, not your drug supply!
Recently, the danger escalated with treaty disputes following a complaint by Argentina, Canada and the United States, “a WTO panel ruled that an EU moratorium on the authorization of nine GM products between 1999 and 2004 broke world trade rules.”
In other words, your food supply is a matter of treaty and not in your hands.
It’s time to fight back. This one is a pretty simple fight. Just refuse to buy anything that is GMO. Drug companies and chemical giants can beat us in Congress, but they cannot fight an empty pocketbook. Refuse to take drugs unless you have read the Physician’s Desk Reference (PDR) and read it between the lines for side effects. Remember who writes it!
Most so called diseases can be reversed by a good diet (which, according to the FDA, makes your food a drug!). Shop organic. Support your local organic growers. Refuse to buy fast foods laced with God only knows. Do not buy poison.
You can put me out of business with my blessing if you simply eat good food.
OK. I’m done ranting this month.

Disclaimer
Nothing in this newsletter should be construed as medical advice and, as always, you should consult with a physician concerning your health.
The forum is simple. Send us a question and we will endeavor to answer it in as simple a manner as possible in the upcoming issue. I have always believed that simple is usually the answer.
If you are buying into the "let's treat every symptom now" routine, you are probably going to be disappointed. I have seen people leave a "natural care" practitioner's office
with hundreds of dollars of supplements only to have nothing happen except a somewhat lighter bank account. As always, buyer beware and remember that natural healing is a process that can take some time.
There are many factors that lead up to a chronic condition and, without seeing a client, it is often difficult to make hard and fast rules and solutions. So please understand that we will try to give you the answer with the available information you supply.

Thank you
