Organic Grains to be Phased Out on Planet Earth

There is a diabolical plan underway which serves to threaten the ability to produce organically grown grains, and it’s even worse than that, as it is a plan within a plan that actually threatens most food crops and most plant species on the planet.

“Plants feed the people, and the animals that people eat; they (plants) clothe us, provide our medicines, building materials, clean our air…”
`

From ‘Jonathan Drori – All of human life, all life depends on plants’

“Just think for a moment. It doesn’t matter whether you live in a small African village or you live in a big city. Everything comes back to plants in the end. Whether it’s the food, the medicine, the fuel, the construction, the clothing–all the obvious things. Or whether it’s the spiritual or recreational things that matter to us so much. Or whether it’s soil formation or the effect on the atmosphere, or primary production. Even the books here are made out of plants. All these things, they come back to plants. And without them we wouldn’t be here.
And they are also under threat because they are sharing a planet with people like us. And people like us want to do things that destroy plants and their habitats [irresponsibly playing God with genes]. And whether that is because of food production or because of the introduction of alien plants into places that they really shouldn’t be, or because of habitats being used for other purposes. All these things are meaning that plants have to adapt or die or move. And plants, sometimes find it rather difficult to move, because of mighty cities and other things in the way. So if all human life depends on plants, doesn’t it make sense that perhaps we should try and save them? I think it does.”

Jonathan Drori: Why we’re storing billions of seeds

It’s very real, the mechanism by which this may take place is quite easy to understand, it can affect crops worldwide and there is no known way to reverse it after full initiation.

No known way to reverse it!

This may sound a bit alarmist to those who haven’t been keeping up with what’s been going on in modern ‘laboratory agriculture’ for the past 15-20 years. Those of us who have been watching, know that the above statement is in reality, an understatement. Read more »

Miracle Berry

Miracle Fruit
Synsepalum dulcificum a.k.a. Miracle Berry

A relatively tasteless berry with an amazing side effect.

After eating one miracle fruit, sour things will instantly taste sweet. Eating even the sourest of lemons, one will taste only sugary sweetness. The effect lasts an hour or two. The miracle fruit is a remarkable natural sweetener that is virtually unknown to much of the world.

Berries are eaten fresh. Africans sometimes use the fruits to improve the taste of stale food. Fruits are being investigated as a possible source for a natural food sweetener.

The miracle fruit cannot be grown outside in the United States except Southern Florida, but it makes an easy houseplant. Fruit is produced throughout the year and hundreds of berries can be harvested from a single plant.

Miracle Fruit is native to tropical West Africa.
Scientific names: Synsepalum dulcificum, Synsepalum subcordatum
Family: Sapotaceae
Common name: Miracle Fruit
Origin: Ghana (Tropical West Africa)

…It is one of the strangest fruits in the world. The most unusual thing about it is the effect it has on one’s taste after this miraculous berry has been consumed. The “miracle” is that if lemon or other sour food is eaten after the miracle fruit, the sour tastes sweet, as if sugar has been added.

Most Chicken Harbors Harmful Bacteria

Most Chicken Harbors Harmful Bacteria

83% of Chickens Tested for Consumer Reports Had 1 of 2 Sickening Bacteria.

Consumer Reports says — that “fresh poultry may [does] carry naturally occurring bacteria and should be properly handled and cooked,”

Dec. 4, 2006 — Even if you go for the more expensive organic or antibiotic-free chicken, the chicken you buy at the grocery store probably contains bacteria that can make you sick.

Careful handling and aggressive cooking can reduce, but not remove the risk!!!

A startling 83% of the chickens tested in the recent Consumer Reports investigation were contaminated with one or both of the leading bacterial causes of food-borne disease — salmonella and campylobacter.

That is way up from the results of 49% in 2003, when the group last reported on contamination in chickens, and similar to the contamination found in 1997, when almost three-fourths of the broilers Consumer Reports tested were positive for salmonella or campylobacter.

In their new report, “Dirty Birds”, investigators with Consumers Union, which publishes Consumer Reports, concluded that paying more for a chicken does not increase your chances of getting one free of illness-causing bacteria.

In fact chickens labeled as organic or raised without antibiotics and costing $3 to $5 per pound were more likely to harbor salmonella than were conventionally produced broilers that cost more like $1 a pound.

Jean Halloran of Consumers Union reports that fewer than one if five birds tested (17%) were free of both pathogens (Not free from all pathogens only those two for which they were tested), that’s the lowest percentage of clean birds recorded since the group began testing chickens eight years ago.

Investigators for the independent consumer group tested 525 whole broiler chickens from leading brands like Perdue, Tyson, Pilgrim’s Pride, and Foster Farms, as well as organic and other brands raised without antibiotics.

The chickens were purchased at supermarkets, mass retailers, gourmet shops, and natural food stores in 23 states in the spring of 06.

Among the findings:

15% of chickens tested were contaminated with salmonella, compared to the 12% reported by Consumers Union in 2003.

81% harbored campylobacter, up from 42% in 2003. This bug is the main identified cause of bacterial diarrhea illness in the world.

13% of chickens were contaminated with both bacteria, up from 5% in 2003.

84% of the salmonella organisms analyzed and 67% of the campylobacter were resistant to one or more antibiotics. In the 2003 report, 34% of the salmonella and 90% of campylobacter were resistant.

“The problem of antibiotic resistance is related to both the widespread use of antibiotics in animal feed to promote growth and the widespread use in humans,” Halloran says.

Major brands tested did not show better results than smaller brands, overall, based on tests of 78 chickens from each brand.

Halloran says it is clear routine testing is needed.

“81% [campylobacter] contamination is intolerable, in our view,” she says.

No Meal is an Island

When you fuel your being with the products of compassion and wholesome-ness, you become a product of compassion and wholesome-ness.

If you fuel yourself with the products of pollution, pain, inefficiency and failure, you are a product of pollution, pain, inefficiency and failure.

There is a lot connected to (Many fingers of association) the production of a food. And all of the embodied, accumulated history of the food’s life becomes part of the body and “Energy” of the consumer.

Koreans Say U.S. MAD COW is Bull

South Koreans took to the streets. Young and old, people from all walks of life protested in huge numbers and in no uncertain terms, the lifting of the ban on proven dangerous U.S. beef. Some in the Korean government have bowed to the unfair and unrelenting pressures from the U.S. and the powerful cattlemen’s lobby.

80,000 Protest US Beef Imports in South Korea

In South Korea, public outcry over the lifting of a ban on US beef continues to bring the country to a standstill.

On Tuesday, more than 80,000 people took to the streets of Seoul to demand the ban be reimposed.

It was the largest rally so far since daily protests began more than a month ago. The entire South Korean cabinet has offered to resign in response to the protests. South Korean lawmaker Kang Gi-gap said the cabinet had been ignoring the people’s wishes.

“Clean” Protein

Posted by on February 16, 2012 No comments

“Clean” Protein

One one-gram tablet provides as much usable protein as 35 grams of animal protein. A 35:1 ratio. And it’s virtual “All Clean”… The “Clean-Burning” protein. Read what this means below.
Each one-gram tablet contains only 1/2 calorie, compared to hundreds of calories in animal protein.

American Nutrition Clinics, Coral Gables, FL 33143, USA.
Results of this multicentric study have shown that by giving Master Amino acid Pattern (MAP) as a sole and total substitute of dietary proteins to 500 overweight participants undergoing the American Nutrition Clinics/Overweight Management Program (ANC/OMP), the participants’ body nitrogen balance could be maintained in equilibrium with essentially no calories (MAP 1 g=0.04 kcal), thereby preserving the body’s structural and functional proteins, eliminating excessive water retention from the interstitial compartment, and preventing the sudden weight increase after study conclusion commonly known as the yo-yo effect. Study results have shown that the use of MAP, in conjunction with the ANC/OMP regimen, has proven to be safe and effective by preventing those adverse effects associated with a negative nitrogen balance, such as oversized or flabby tissue, stretch marks, the sagging of breast tissue, increased hair loss, faded hair color, and fragile or brittle nails. Also prevented were those anomalies commonly associated with weight-loss diets, such as hunger, weakness, headache caused by ketosis, constipation, and decreased libido. The use of MAP in conjunction with the ANC/OMP also allowed for mean weight loss of 2.5 kg (5.5 lb) per week, achieved through reduction of excessive fat tissue and elimination of excessive water retention from the interstitial compartment.

Study results show that a 51-year-old female athlete, while taking the Master Amino acid Pattern (MAP) as a sole and total substitute for dietary protein, and performing physical activity, experienced (1) increased body muscle mass, strength, and endurance; (2) decreased body fat mass; (3) greater increase in performance of the nonprevailing muscles compared to the prevailing muscles; (4) improved cardiorespiratory performance; and (5) increased red blood cells, hemoglobin, and hematocrit parameters. It was concluded, confirming previous findings, that use of MAP as a sole and total substitute for dietary protein, in conjunction with physical activity, provides safer, unprecedented optimization of the body’s protein synthesis, thereby improving anthropometric characteristics and physical and physiologic performance.

Agave Syrup, Not so ‘Sweet’

Posted by on February 14, 2012 No comments

The rapid rise in popularity and the wide acceptance of agave syrup as a healthful food and natural food has concerned me for some time. Agave is heavily promoted as a low glycemic food and target marketed to diabetics and health conscious consumers.

Agave concentrates may actually rank medium to high glycemically, but even if (when) an agave syrup ranks low (good), there is much more about the makeup of a sweetener than just its G.I. (glycemic index) that may relate to the product’s character and quality and its appropriateness/compatibility with the system(s) of the consumer.
Agave can now be found as an ingredient in a host of ‘value added’ and prepared foods typically found in health food stores and can increasingly be found in mainstream brands as well.

Based on reasonable criteria it may not be accurate to refer to agave syrup as a natural food, and it is often not organic.
Fully chemically processed sap from the agave plant is known as hydrolyzed high fructose inulin syrup.

Depending upon where the agave comes from and the amount of heat used to process it, a typical agave syrup can be anywhere from 55 percent to 90 percent fructose! This high percentage of fructose may disqualify the product as a healthful food.

MILK MATH

MILK MATH…

Some revealing milk related numbers

THE ‘WHOLESOME’ PROTEIN MYTH:
87% of milk is water. So milk drinkers are paying, maybe a buck-a-quart for mostly water. But it’s the other 13 percent, no matter what the cost, that is worrisome and even more costly than you can probably imagine. Broken down into its basic groups… WHOLE MILK is: WATER (87%), FAT (3.7%), CARBOHYDRATE / LACTOSE (4.9%), FIBER (0%), CASEIN AND OTHER PROTEIN (3.5) (note: that is 3.7% “milk-fat” which includes the 87% water.)

80% of the protein in milk is casein. Casein is a powerful binder… a polymer used to make plastics. It is an adhesive that is better used to affix labels to mayonnaise jars then eat or drink. It is sneaked into thousands of processed foods as a binder… It appears on the label as “Whatever” caseinate. Casein is a powerful allergen… it activates histamine which creates lots of mucus.

It’s not just about gobs of mucus, indeed, cows’ milk protein may be the single most significant chemical carcinogen to which humans are exposed, to say nothing of its other negative effects on health.

Sound science clearly demonstrates that: animal protein, when consumed in excess of protein requirements, is one of the most toxic nutrients of all. Risk for disease goes up dramatically when even a little animal protein is added to the diet.

Dr. T. Colin Campbell states: “casein as an animal protein promotes cancer, in spades. [ ] casein is the most relevant chemical carcinogen ever discovered”.

T. Colin Campbell, is Professor Emeritus of Nutritional Biochemistry at Cornell University

Many studies demonstrate that diets high in protein (Especially Animal Protein) lower bone density and increase rick of fracture.

CALCIUM, MILK AND BONE DENSITY:
Fact: Around the world, the higher the dairy intake, the higher the osteoporosis rates. Osteoporosis is not a calcium deficiency disease! Bone is composed of at least a dozen minerals, going ape over calcium actually increases the risk and severity of osteoporosis.
Think you’re absorbing usable calcium from cow’s milk? Nutritionists consider the optimum ratio (For calcium absorption) of Calcium to Magnesium to be 1:2. The ratio in milk at 10:1is 20 times to the negative, and would seem to be one of the reasons that; the more milk people drink /eat, the ‘Swiss- cheesy-er’ their bones become. So, as a bone-density promoting agent, cows’ milk fails profoundly when used by humans. Unabsorbed (Cellular- ly) calcium does cause great harm however, accumulating as micro-gravel in joints and becoming part of the cross-linkage ‘plaster’ which is so good at clogging arteries.

BACTERIA:
Cow’s milk is allowed to have feces in it and always does. This is one of the sources of bacteria that milk drinkers drink. Milk is typically pasteurized for only 15 seconds at 162 degrees Fahrenheit. To sanitize water we are told to boil it (190-212 degrees F) for 20 minutes. Curious.
Keep in mind that at room temperature the number of bacteria in milk DOUBLE around every 20 minutes. As you know, milk turns rotten (more rotten) very quickly. While pasteurization lowers the bacterial count (Good bugs and bad bugs) it totally wipes out all the enzymes which would help to digest the milky mess.

PUS:
ONE cubic centimeter (cc) of commercial cow’s milk is allowed to have up to 750,000 somatic cells (“PUS” cells) and 20,000 live bacteria before it is kept off the market.
That amounts to a whopping 20 million live (And rapidly replicating) squiggly bacteria and up to 750 MILLION pus cells per liter / quart.

Or:
1 cup = 236.5882cc 177,441,150 pus cells and 4,731,600 bacteria.

Or:
24 oz (3 glasses) (the “recommended” daily intake) = 532,323,450 pus cells and 14,220,000 bacteria The EU and the Canadians allow for a ‘tangy’ 400,000,000 pus cells per liter.

Based on allowable (And common) counts of white blood cells and bacteria, that famous movie, recording or sports star in the commercials and magazine adds is wearing a white mustache containing 300,000 white blood cells and 25,000 bacteria.
