Over time We specialised (some gathered, some farmed, some hunted) and traded	Division of Labour More Assured Survival Wider Variety of Foods
This developed further Larger and more risky trading required capital and risk sharing so corporations were born	Wider Variety of Foods Profit
Which led to Larger corporations gaining control of seed strains, grazing and farming lands and adopting strategies that maximise yield rather than nutrition	Profit
And we now have Very large corporations in control of food distribution, manufacture, marketing and retailing, growing low nutrient crops with artificail fertilisers, pesticides and herbicides in a way that is destructive to our health, preparing foods with toxins and sugar that destroy our health, promoting destructive additives and ingredients as healthy when they are far from it.	Larger Profits

 

Collectives, specialisation, trading and risk sharing are not necessarily bad developments. If you had ethical people involved all along the line there are advantages to grouping, specialisation, trade and economies of scale. It is when you introduce the prority of profit over the quality of the product produced that you have the problems we have today.

This needs to change. Every dollar you spend props up the current system and degrades your and others’ health or contributes to building a better system.
Please choose wisely.

It doesn’t happen to everyone, but for some people, going out and having drinks results in a deeply flushed face. Why? Because their bodies are not fully able to process the alcohol they consume, so an alcohol-related chemical called acetaldehyde builds up in their bodies. It’s the acetaldehyde that triggers the flushed face.

My new peer-reviewed piece (summarized below) may be the most important article I’ve ever written. It redefines how we think and speak about genetically modified organisms (GMOs), Roundup®, and organic diets. I know it does for me. Survey results reveal that 3,256 people reported improvements in 28 health conditions after reducing their GMO intake. Many conditions were “nearly” or “completely” recovered.

A new report from the U.S. government is likely to create further debate regarding whether or not cellphones and other mobile devices pose a cancer risk to humans. According to a draft report from researchers the United States National Toxicology Program (NTP), male rats exposed to high levels of radiation similar to that emitted by cellphones developed tumors in the tissue surrounding their hearts. The report also found that female rats and mice exposed to the same amount of radiation did not develop tumors. Reuters first reported on the release of the preliminary report.

To be clear, this is not the first time studies examining the dangers of radiofrequency devices such as cellphones and microwaves have caused controversy. Studies in both Australia and India have found that men who use their cellphones most often had lower sperm counts than those who used cellphones less often. In addition, in 2011, the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer classified radiofrequency radiation emitted by cellphones as “possibly carcinogenic to humans.”

Don’t fall for the marketing trick! This “healthy” sugar alternative can actually raise your risk of cancer and more. Here’s what you should do if you’ve become hooked on artificial sweeteners. Try Stevia or Xylitol.
