Poisoned Food, Poisoned Agriculture: Getting off the Chemical Treadmill

A peer-reviewed study published last year in the British Journal of Nutrition, a leading international journal of nutritional science, showed that organic crops and crop-based foods are between 18 to 69 percent higher in a number of key antioxidants such as polyphenolics than conventionally-grown crops. Numerous studies have linked antioxidants to a reduced risk of chronic diseases, including cardiovascular and neurodegenerative diseases and certain cancers. The research team concluded that a switch to eating organic fruit, vegetable and cereals – and food made from them – would provide additional antioxidants equivalent to eating between one and two extra portions of fruit and vegetables a day.
Moreover, significantly lower levels of a range of toxic heavy metals were found in organic crops. For instance, cadmium is one of only three metal contaminants, along with lead and mercury, for which the European Commission has set maximum permitted contamination levels in food. It was found to be almost 50 percent lower in organic crops. Nitrogen concentrations were also found to be significantly lower in organic crops. Concentrations of total nitrogen were 10 percent, nitrate 30 percent and nitrite 87 percent lower in organic compared to conventional crops. The study also found that pesticide residues were four times more likely to be found in conventional crops than organic ones.
The research was the biggest of its kind ever undertaken. The international team of experts led by Newcastle University in the UK analysed 343 studies into the compositional differences between organic and conventional crops.

GE Soybeans Give Altered Milk and Stunted Offspring, Researchers Find

Pregnant goats fed with genetically engineered (GE) soybeans have offspring who grow more slowly and are shorter, according to a new Italian study (Tudisco et al., 2015)… …The reduced growth of the goat kids was attributed by the researchers to their observation that the milk of the GE-fed mothers was significantly less nutritious and contained less of the IgG antibodies important for early growth.

The Truth About Cancer

The Truth About Cancer
I am listening to this right now. I am learning heaps and having past learning reinforced.
Inflammation and cancer go hand in hand.
“Reduce inflammation and you prevent cancer from forming.” – Dr Russell Blaycock
“If you eat real food you are going to be eating an anti-cancer diet.” – Mike Adams
“Vegetables are our most important food in the fight against cancer.” – Cherie Calbom “The Juice Lady”
“There are two parts to healthy diet- one is avoiding the bad stuff, the other is taking advantage of the good stuff.” – Ocean Robbins CEO Food Revolution Network
Essiac Tea – a blend of herbs given her by an Indian Medicine man.
In an interview with Ty Bolinger for his series on The Truth About Cancer, Dr Mathias Rath says:
“During the first half of the twentieth century no less than 9 Nobel Prizes were awarded for vitamin research for the benefit of vitamins for human health.
“In 1963, the German government, under pressure of Bayer, launched what is called Codex Alimentarius Commission with the goal to make sure that vitamins and the benefits of vitamins for human health are being eliminated world wide.
“So you can see, it is not just you and us talking about cancer, there is a century long tradition of crime against human health.
“And when you follow that trek, a lot of the things we will be talking about today will become easier to understand for the people who watch this interview.:- Dr Mathias Rath
You really should do yourself a favour and what this for free while you can. If your time is limited this week, do yourself the second best favour you can. Buy the series to you can watch it when you have time.

Video: The Massive Nuclear Crisis In The U.S. No One Talks About…

Now semi-decomissioned, radioactive waste continues to leak from its 177 underground tanks containing roughly 55,000,000 gallons of highly radioactive “heavy” water. This is likely the biggest U.S. nuclear crisis you have never heard of.
Admittedly, this Fukushima style facility (of which quite a few exist in the US) has only failed to contain 68 of its 177 tanks. This crisis continues to pollute the Colombia River today, and has gotten worse as whistleblowers continued to be fired.

The Spice That Prevents Fluoride From Destroying Your Brain

Turmeric
Fluoride’s neurotoxicity has been the subject of academic debate for decades, and now a matter of increasingly impassioned controversy among the general public, as well. From ‘conspiracy theories’ about it being first used in drinking water in Russian and Nazi concentration camps to chemically lobotomize captives, to its now well-known IQ lowering properties, to its ability to enhance thecalcification of the pineal gland – the traditional ‘seat of the soul’ – many around the world, and increasingly in the heavily fluoridated regions of the United States, are starting to organize at the local and statewide level to oust this ubiquitous toxicant from municipal drinking water.
