| GMO FOODS Just because a product is labeled "Natural" does not always mean that it is healthy. Some "natural" products have hydrogenated oils in them. Others contain GMO's (Genetically Modified..see "Interesting Quotes on this page.) Make sure you do your own research to find the best products for you and your family. CAMPAIGN TO BAN GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOODS Next time you go grocery shopping, keep this in mind. If you are not buying organic, you might be buying a freak of nature...who knows? "Genetic engineering (GE) is the transfer of genes from one organism to another through means that do not occur in nature, but through human intervention. This involves isolating and then moving genes within and without different species by recombinant DNA techniques and other manipulation of the genetic construct outside the traditional practices such as sexual and asexual breeding, hybridization, fermentation, in-vitro fertilization and tissue culture. Using genetic engineering techniques, genes can be exchanged between species that would never interbreed in nature. Thus, fish genes can be inserted into a tomato, human genes into rice, and bacteria into corn." ..."A GMO is short for genetically modified organism, also known as genetically engineered organism, or transgenic organism. It carries genetic material that has been altered in the laboratory and transferred into it by genetic engineering. " "A GMO is a plant, animal or microorganism (e.g., bacteria) that is created by means that overcome natural boundaries. Genetic engineering involves crossing species which could not cross in nature. For example, fish genes have been inserted into strawberries. While the Food and Drug Administration insists that foods produced by genetic engineering are the same as foods from traditional breeding, their own scientists reported that, "the processes of genetic engineering and traditional breeding are different and... they lead to different risks." "The most widely grown GE crops are soybeans, corn, canola (rapeseed) and cotton. Nearly all GE crops grown today are one of two varieties: "insect resistant" and "herbicide tolerant" crops." Source: http://www.ccof.org/ccofcertificationservices/ge.php Note: Soy, Corn, Canola...very common ingredients in many processed foods, candy bars, microwavable foods, mayo, desserts, etc. WHAT ABOUT FLUORIDE IN OUR DRINKING WATER?? "Several U.S. cities, as well as Japan, Germany, Austria, Denmark and Sweden, have ended the procedure, often citing a possible link to increased risk of bone cancer. Though the EPA officially supports fluoridation of drinking water, Dr. J. William Hirzy of the EPA professional employees’ union asked Congress for a national moratorium on the process. Hirzy says fluoride doubles the rate of hip fractures and hearing loss in seniors." Source: http://www.emagazine.com/september-october_2003/0903feat1_sb4.html Dare to Think... Toxic properties of fluoride Is Fluoride Safe? Fluoride's effects on the skeletal system (bones and such) Fluoride's effects on the nervous system and lowered IQ Levels in Children Is the ADA Telling the Truth? Fluoride and the Thyroid Explored, With Dr. Peatfield Most of Europe Reject Fluoride in their Drinking Water Read Their Statements "The fluoride chemical added to water is an unprocessed, industrial waste-product from the pollution scrubbers of the phosphate fertilizer industry." This article will shock you. Fluoride Health Effects ... LONG LIST WITH MANY LINKS!!! WHAT ABOUT MEAT? Acts 15:20 "But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood." Things strangled... this is a New Testament teaching. Eating things that are tortured and strangled before death may pose tremendous health risks. That is why God instructed the early church to abstain from things strangled. Did you know that many of the animals consumed in this country are strangled and tortured to death? These poor animals are God's creatures and were never meant to be treated in such a cruel fashion. Some people suggest a better way to kill an animal is Kosher style, which forbids the use of torture. In fact, the Kosher knife used to cut the throat of the animal is so sharp to insure the death of the animal is quick and painless. Read this excellent article on Kosher meat, according to the Bible. "The Washington Post obtained enforcement documents from 28 slaughter plants and exposed horrific acts of cruelty that occur on a daily basis in slaughterhouses throughout the U.S. The Washington Post also interviewed dozens of current and former federal meat inspectors and slaughterhouse workers who admitted to routinely witnessing the strangling, beating, scalding, skinning, and butchering of live, fully conscious animals. " Source: http://www.api4animals.org/192.htm Washington Post Exposes the Torture of these poor animals http://www.cjf.org/pages/kosher1.htm The Humane Farming Association The Case Against Meat "Diets high in fat, especially saturated fat, are associated with increased risk of cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. Diets high in animal protein have been shown to increase the risk of kidney problems, osteoporosis, and some types of cancer. Because fiber is found only in plant foods, and high-protein, high-fat, carbohydrate-restricted diets tend to be low in plant foods, these diets are also typically low in fiber. Low fiber intake is associated with increased risk of colon cancer and other malignancies, heart disease, diabetes, and constipation." Hmmm...Atkins Diet anyone?

| Aloe and Psoriasis: A double-blind placebo-controlled study was undertaken in Sweden in 1996 to evaluate topical application of Aloe vera extract in the treatment of 60 patients with psoriasis. By the end of the study- 16 weeks with 12 months of follow-up on a monthly basis- 83% of the aloe group were cured. No toxic reactions or side effects were noted. The study concluded that Aloe vera can be considered a safe, alternative treatment for psoriasis. - From Healthway Happenings December/January 2002 |

| Green Magma- We absolutely love this green drink, though it takes a bit getting used to the taste. Once you have been on this a month, there is no turning back. You crave the taste and the way it makes you feel. Other name brand green drinks have given us the "shakes" or tremors but this product is absolutely the best, in our opinion. And we are not getting paid to say this. **Disclaimer: Consult your physician before trying any health product. |

| I don't believe that God intended man to smoke hemp...but what are the uses for the Hemp plant?? Click on this interesting link...The Healing Power of Hemp - by Colleen Heraty says that "hemp has 40,000" uses and that our US constitution was written on hemp paper. "For more than 10,000 years hemp has provided food, shelter, paper, fabric, clothing and medicine. It wasn't until the 1930s did it first experience a ban on its growth. Being clean, renewable, cheap, and easy to grow, it quickly became a threat to the natural resource companies, who were expecting to make a fortune in the production of fossil fuels." says Colleen Heraty. |
| THE MICROWAVE AND YOUR HEALTH "A reputed Swiss Scientist, Dr. Hertel, almost 10 years ago, did research on the effects of microwaving on cooking of food. In an experiment, people were fed food cooked conventionally and by using microwave ovens. Blood samples were taken before and after the consumption of these foods and were analysed. It became evident in the course of the study that microwaved food had a definite influence on the blood of the test persons - The hemoglobin level (red blood cells) decreased significantly after consumption of microwaved food."

This was repeatedly observed in several separate experiments. Normal monkeys and undernourished children fed diets containing freshly irradiated wheat showed elevated levels of polyploid [ abnormal ] cells in circulating lymphocytes [white blood cells] . Several months after the irradiated wheat was withdrawn, levels of polyploidy returned to normal. Mice fed freshly irradiated wheat-based diets showed evidence of dominant lethal mutation as indicated by increased numbers of intrauterine [ prenatal ] deaths."

| PROCESSED FOODS AND YOUR TEETH In the 1920's & 30's, dental surgeon, Weston Price travelled the world studying the teeth of "primitive" populations in many different areas. What he found was very disturbing. Those who followed their traditional (whole food) eating patterns, had excellent teeth and excellent general health. Those who changed to a "western" diet of processed foods developed marked dental deformities within two generations. Their general health also deteriorated and chronic illnesses started to become more prevalent. His book Nutrition & Physical Degeneration records his findings. Read more here |
| NATURE'S ANTIBIOTICS Searching for an alternative to prescription antibiotics? If so, talk to an experienced herbalist about usnea and lomatium, two strong-acting herbs with antimicrobial and immuno-modulating activity. Herbal antimicrobials work in much the same way as their drug counterparts do- by destroying or preventing the growth of bacterial micro-organisms. Usnea, a branched lichen also called old man's beard, contains acids that fight gram-positive bacteria such as streptococcus, staphylococcus and mycobacteria. This herb also works against candida, and can be topically applied for ringworm and athlete's foot. Lomatium is sometimes called Indian consumption plant or biscuit root and can be used against a variety of bacterial infections. It contains an oleoresin rich in terpenes that appears responsible for the herb's antiviral effects. Lomatium is also an effective expectorant and is useful for treating pneumonia, infective bronchitis, tuberculosis as well as colds and the flu. Source: Healthway Happenings Dec/Jan 2002 |
