From a Voice of Eden Newsletter:

Hydrogenated oil was first invented in 1903 for Soap. In 1911 Proctor and Gamble came out with Crisco. No one would buy it so they gave it away. After 1914 big companies became big successes because they found that with hydrogenated oil in their product it could sit on the shelves for months at room temperature, and it was cheap. This meant big profits.
A dramatic increase in disease was apparent during the 30’s and 40’s. First was a new disease that seemed like diabetes but was not caused by a deficiency of insulin. The medical profession did not know what caused the insulin to be resistant. They were perplexed to what was this new disease and labelled it Diabetes II.
The next dramatic increase was heart disease and then cancer.
While hydrogenated oil can’t be blamed for everything it may have been the beginning of the end of food that your body can use. Food is no longer produced for health, it is produced for profits. The trouble is that what is profitable and what is healthy are often 2 different things.
Hydrogenated oils increase free radicals in your body. Free radicals are not a good thing.
When scientist are looking for nuclear radiation in disasters they are measuring the presence of free radicals. Think about it.
Here are some foods you might have in your house right now that are terrible because they are loaded with free radicals.
Boxed mixes: Cake, biscuit, pancake and cornbread
Snacks: Cakes, cookies, crackers, microwave popcorn
Instant food: Mashed potatoes
Dried seasoning mixes
Frostings
Shortening (think Crisco)
Margarines
Taco shells
Frozen meals
French fries
Frozen fast food meat or seafood products (i.e. fish sticks)
Microwave popcorn
Chips
Pasta mix
Breakfast cereals
Low fat ice creams
Think IF IT HAS A LONG SHELF LIFE IT DECREASES MY SELF LIFE.

Canadian Government Cover-Up Threatens Your Health, and the Entire Ecosystem

In British Columbia, pacific salmon are an essential species for the ecosystem. They fill hundreds of streams and rivers, feeding hundreds of species, including humans. Since the early 1990’s, salmon numbers have rapidly dwindled, coinciding with the introduction of farmed salmon pens.
Fish farms breed pathogens that can spread like wildfire and contaminate any wild fish swimming past. Wild salmon that died before spawning have tested positive for a number of salmon viruses, including the highly lethal “salmon influenza”.
Farmed fish, purchased in stores around British Columbia have tested positive for at least three lethal fish viruses, including the dreaded ISA virus (aka salmon flu), salmon alpha viruses, and Piscine reovirus, which causes the salmon to have a heart attack, preventing them from swimming upriver.
Dr Mercola recommends buying locally-grown foods, and wild fish only. Fish farms are a breeding ground for disease and toxic waste, and produce fish of inferior quality. Due to the dramatically increased disease risk—a natural side effect of crowding—these animals are further contaminated with drugs, and in the case of salmon, synthetic astaxanthin, which is made from petrochemicals that are not approved for human consumption.

Poem Written by Crystal Meth Victim

Crystal Meth Victim

“I AM METH”

(This was written by a young Indian girl who was in jail for drug
charges, and was addicted to meth. She wrote this while in jail. As you will
soon read, she fully grasped the horrors of the drug, as she tells in this
simple, yet profound poem. She was released from jail, but, true to her
story, the drug owned her. They found her dead not long after, with the
needle still in her arm.)
Please keep praying for our Children, Teens, Young adults. Understand,
this thing is worse than any of us realize…
My Name: “Is Meth”
I destroy homes, I tear families apart, take your children, and that’s just the start.
I’m more costly than diamonds, more precious than gold,
The sorrow I bring is a sight to behold.
If you need me, remember I’m easily found,
I live all around you – in schools and in town.
I live with the rich; I live with the poor,
I live down the street, and maybe next door.
I’m made in a lab, but not like you think,
I can be made under the kitchen sink.
In your child’s closet, and even in the woods,
If this scares you to death, well it certainly should.
I have many names, but there’s one you know best,
I’m sure you’ve heard of me, my name is crystal meth.
My power is awesome; try me you’ll see,
But if you do, you may never break free.
Just try me once and I might let you go,
But try me twice, and I’ll own your soul.
When I possess you, you’ll steal and you’ll lie,
You do what you have to — just to get high.
The crimes you’ll commit for my narcotic charms
Will be worth the pleasure you’ll feel in your arms,
your lungs your nose.
You’ll lie to your mother; you’ll steal from your dad,
When you see their tears, you should feel sad.
But you’ll forget your morals and how you were raised,
I’ll be your conscience, I’ll teach you my ways.
I take kids from parents, and parents from kids,
I turn people from God, and separate friends.
I’ll take everything from you, your looks and your pride,
I’ll be with you always — right by your side.
You’ll give up everything – your family, your home,
Your friends, your money, then you’ll be alone.
I’ll take and take, till you have nothing more to give,
When I’m finished with you, you’ll be lucky to live.
If you try me be warned – this is no game,
If given the chance, I’ll drive you insane.
I’ll ravish your body, I’ll control your mind,
I’ll own you completely, your soul will be mine.
The nightmares I’ll give you while lying in bed,
The voices you’ll hear, from inside your head.
The sweats, the shakes, the visions you’ll see,
I want you to know, these are all gifts from me.
But then it’s too late, and you’ll know in your heart,
That you are mine, and we shall not part.
You’ll regret that you tried me, they always do,
But you came to me, not I to you.
You knew this would happen, many times you were told,
But you challenged my power, and chose to be bold.
You could have said no, and just walked away,
If you could live that day over, now what would you say?
I’ll be your master, you will be my slave,
I’ll even go with you, when you go to your grave.
Now that you have met me, what will you do?
Will you try me or not? It’s all up to you.
I can bring you more misery than words can tell,
Come take my hand, let me lead you to hell.
If you care enough, please forward this profound poem and
share the deadly outcome of this drug that is killing our young people & even our old.

How to maintain your health by repairing post-exercise free radical damage

Another little piece of the jigsaw puzzle of life fell into place this week while I was drafting a flyer for the upcoming Fitness and Health Expo. It was the body’s three step process of repairing free radical damage and the things I’ve included in my bars and powders to support that. Here’s the text of the flyer. Hopefully you get something from it.
How to maintain your health by repairing post-exercise free radical damage
Let me share some exciting data with you that will have an enormous impact on the power & quality of your post-exercise recovery strategy.
Good food & supplements should provide energy, strength and stamina and aid post-exercise recovery and repair. My nutrition bars and powders do that and a whole lot more. The “whole lot more” is the reason my bars and powders could be the healthiest food you ever eat.
A free radical is one or a group of atoms missing an oxygen electron. Every time you eat or exercise, your body suffers free radical damage.
The more you exercise, the more free radical damage your body suffers.
Free radical damage is one of 5 key factors in degenerative diseases.
The good news is that your body has a 3 stage solution to directly address and reverse free radical damage. The bad news is that until now, nobody has told you about this 3 stage process and how to reinforce it. As a result of not knowing this, most diets are nutrient deficient – they lead to premature aging and early death.
I have specifically researched and included dozens of ingredients in my top bars and powders to speed and improve your body’s 3 stage process of repairing free radical damage.
Here are the three steps your body takes and how my products support and enhance each step…
1. Antioxidants
Antioxidants are the first line of nutritional defense. They supply the missing oxygen electron to revert a free radical. Research shows antioxidants are not additive, they are multiplicative in their effect. Any combination of antioxidants does more good than the sum of each one. Like 1 + 1 = 3. So take your vitamin C & E at the same time.
Now, imagine taking 90 or 156 different antioxidants at the same time!
Every ingredient in my top bars and powders is an antioxidant.
2. Glutathione Boosters
Glutathione is the master antioxidant. It restores antioxidants to active duty after they have donated an electron to a free radical. Researchers found the only two things 100 year olds had in common were a positive mental attitude and high levels of glutathione. Unfortunately, glutathione supplements are not absorbed by the digestive system. (Note: taking a vitamin C tablet does more to boost glutathione levels than taking a glutathione supplement.)
I include over a dozen ingredients to boost your glutathione levels.
(My top bars have 17 and my Nutri-BlastTM nutrition powder has 15.)
3. Stem Cell Release Boosters
Stem cells are made in the bones. They contain the genetic blueprint to become nearly any other type of cell in the body. Stem cells surf the blood stream on a “find and replace damaged cells mission”. When a stem cell finds a damaged cell, the stem cell evolves and replaces it. The damaged cell is then picked up by the liver for recycling.
So the more stem cells you have in your blood, the more damaged cells are replaced before they can do harm. You can imagine how much more important this is to a very active body compared to a sedentary one!
I include in my powders and top bars 7 ingredients that research has shown increases the release of stem cells from your bones.
I have a few other goals for my top bars you can read about on this page: http://www.healthelicious.com.au/eXtreme-Nutrition-Bar.html
To your improved performance, faster recovery AND longer good health,

P.S. The faster you repair cells, the less damage your body suffers!
