ALERT!

Aspertame now AminoSweet

Aspertame, a potentially cancer-causing artificial sweetener has now been re-named and is being marketed as AminoSweet.  Sounds better but it's the same potentially cancer-causing artificial sweetener it's always been.

This is a mailing that was sent around the web...you may well have seen it...it's so worth repeating!

It's been said that God first separated the salt water from the fresh, made dry land, planted a garden, made animals and fish ... all before making a human. He made and provided what we'd need before we were born. These are best & more powerful when eaten raw. We're such slow learners...

God left us great clues as to what foods help what part of our body!


God's Pharmacy! Amazing!
A sliced Carrot looks like the human eye. The pupil, iris and radiating lines look just like the human eye ... and YES, science now shows carrots greatly enhance blood flow to and function of the eyes.
A Tomato has four chambers and is red. The heart has four chambers and is red.. All of the research shows tomatoes are loaded with linchpin and are indeed pure heart and blood food..
Grapes hang in a cluster that has the shape of the heart. Each grape looks like a blood cell and all of the research today shows grapes are also profound heart and blood vitalizing food.
A Walnut looks like a little brain, a left and right hemisphere, upper cerebrums and lower cerebellums. Even the wrinkles or folds on the nut are just like the neo-cortex. We now know walnuts help develop more than three (3) dozen neuron-transmitters for brain function.
Kidney Beans actually heal and help maintain kidney function and yes, they look exactly like the human kidneys.
Celery, Bok Choy, Rhubarb and many more look just like bones. These foods specifically target bone strength. Bones are 23% sodium and these foods are 23% sodium. If you don't have enough sodium in your diet, the body pulls it from the bones, thus making them weak. These foods replenish the skeletal needs of the body.
Avocados, Eggplant and Pears target the health and function of the womb and cervix of the female - they look just like these organs. Today's research shows that when a woman eats one avocado a week, it balances hormones, sheds unwanted birth weight, and prevents cervical cancers. And how profound is this? It takes exactly nine (9) months to grow an avocado from blossom to ripened fruit. There are over 14,000 photolytic chemical constituents of nutrition in each one of these foods (modern science has only studied and named about 141 of them).
Figs are full of seeds and hang in twos when they grow. Figs increase the mobility of male sperm and increase the numbers of Sperm as well to overcome male sterility.

Olives assist the health and function of the ovaries
Oranges , Grapefruits, and other Citrus fruits look just like the mammary glands of the female and actually assist the health of the breasts and the movement of lymph in and out of the breasts.
Onions look like the body's cells. Today's research shows onions help clear waste materials from all of the body cells. They even produce tears which wash the epithelial layers of the eyes. A working companion, Garlic, also helps eliminate waste materials and dangerous free radicals from the body.

Spices are well-known to be medicine in countries like India, Mexico and all others where indigenous ways are still remembered.  Tumeric, the yellow one, is anti-cancer; it will heal a hot spot on a dog when a dash is added to green clay paste like nothing you've ever seen before!

Add as many veggies to your pasta, rice or noodles as possible.  I sauteed these first, with spices and a bit of salt...then added the cooked pasta into the same pan, folded it in and allowed to cook together a minute~man, is that good!

Keep a wary eye on the produce you use; wash it well...look

 closely...See the frog?

Fresh and washed does not necessarily mean clean!  Mrs Sohn told  me that long ago.  How was it washed and how thoroughly?  Remember; this is a money-making process...not your Grandmother in the kitchen who cares about you personally.

careful what you feed that little one!

OR....eat a balanced diet every day and diminish or obliterate hormonal problems

Pass The Butter .. Please.  

(Thanks Brent, for this reminder)   
       
Margarine was originally manufactured to fatten  turkeys.  When it killed the turkeys, the people who had put  money into the research wanted a pay-back so they put their  heads together to figure out what to do with this product to get their money back. 

It was a white substance with no food appeal so they added the yellow coloring and sold it to people to use in place of butter.  How do you like it?  They have come out with some clever new flavorings...DO YOU KNOW...The difference between margarine and butter? Both have the same amount of calories. Butter is slightly higher in saturated fats at 8 grams; compared to 5 grams for margarine. 
Eating margarine can increase heart disease in women by 53% over eating the same amount of butter, according to a recent Harvard Medical Study. 
Eating butter increases the absorption of many other nutrients in  other foods.  Butter has many nutritional benefits where margarine has a few and only because they are added! (therefore questionable as to absorption)
Butter tastes much better than margarine and it can enhance the flavor of other foods. 
Butter  has been around for centuries where margarine has been around for less than 100 years 

And now, for Margarine.. 

Very High in Trans fatty acids which are outlawed in some countries. (Hello...USA?!) Triples risk of coronary heart disease... Increases total cholesterol and LDL (this is the bad cholesterol) and lowers HDL cholesterol, (the good cholesterol) 
Increases  the risk of cancers up to five times.. 
Lowers  quality of breast milk. 
Decreases immune response. 
Decreases  insulin response. 

And here's the most disturbing fact....
Margarine is but ONE  MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC...and shares 27 ingredients with PAINT

(in case your mind wandered:)
Margarine is but ONE  MOLECULE away from being PLASTIC...and shares 27 ingredients with PAINT

These facts alone were enough to have me avoiding margarine for life (it's been 25-30 years now) and anything else that is hydrogenated (this means hydrogen is added, changing the molecular structure of the substance)...uhhh...hydrogen...is that the stuff they make bombs out of?   

You  can try this yourself: 

Purchase a tub of margarine and leave it open in your garage or shaded area.  Within a couple of days you will notice a couple of things: 
 *  no flies, not even those pesky fruit flies will go near it  (that should tell you something) 
 *  it does not rot or smell differently because it has  no nutritional value (no enzymes either); nothing will grow on it. Even those teeny weeny microorganisms will not a find a home to grow. Why? Because it is nearly plastic.  Would you melt your Tupperware and spread that on your toast?   

Pass the BUTTER PLEASE...
remember, butter is a food, 

margarine is a chemical.

It's Not a Food. It's in Everything...
And Now It's Tainted with Salmonella

FDA announces a recall of an acronym – HVP, or "hydrolyzed vegetable protein" – found in soups, sauces, chilis, stews, hot dogs, gravies, snack foods, dips and dressings. It could lead to the largest food recall in U.S. history.

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has announced a recall of millions of pounds of a product you've never heard of, made by a company you've never heard of, that's in a lot of foods you have not only heard of, but most certainly eaten. It's made by Basic Food Flavors Inc. in Las Vegas, Nevada and it's called HVP. (No, it's not the STD.) HVP is short for hydrolyzed vegetable protein, a ubiquitous food-like substance found in just about every category of processed foods available in American supermarkets.

Already dozens of those processed foods have been recalled, and you can expect many more. The Washington Post and others predict this could lead to the biggest food recall in U.S. history.

Even so, the FDA and other federal agencies are counting the discovery of salmonella – typically found in feces, not food – in the product as a success because they think a customer of Basic Food Flavors blew the whistle on the contamination before it caused anyone to get sick. Salmonella is an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Even healthy people don't have fun consuming it... unless fever, bloody diarrhea, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain are your idea of a good time. The risk of widespread illness from this recall is considered low because both subsequent food makers and consumers typically heat these foods to a high enough temperature that the salmonella is killed.

If the FDA's optimism proves true, then ... Good job, food regulators. But the incident opens a window on the industrialized food system and how easily it can sicken us, rather than nourish us.

HVP is used as a "flavor enhancer" in just about every processed food on the market: soups, sauces, chilis, stews, hot dogs, gravies, seasoned snack foods, dips and dressings.

According to Wikipedia, HVP is:

produced by boiling cereals or legumes, such as soy, corn, or wheat, in hydrochloric acid and then neutralizing the solution with sodium hydroxide. The acid hydrolyzes, or breaks down, the protein in vegetables into their component amino acids. The resulting dark coloured liquid contains, among other amino acids, glutamic acid, which consumers are more familiar with in the form of its sodium salt, monosodium glutamate, or MSG. It is used as a flavor enhancer in many processed foods.

That's what they talk about when they talk about industrialized food. When's the last time you boiled your veggies in hydrochloric acid (also used to make PVC) before cooking up a nice soup? The great thing about using lye (sodium hydroxide) as a finishing agent, is that you can keep extra on hand for making chemical drain cleaner. Yum.

This one company is supplying that product to multiple food manufacturers (just listen to that phrase, "food manufacturers"; it doesn't sound like a farm, does it?). Multiple manufacturers produce foods (or food-like substances, as Michael Pollan calls these processed foods) that are stocked around the country. When contamination in such a base ingredient occurs, the result can easily be contamination of entire shelves' worth of grocery store items. And many people becoming ill.

If hazelnuts are recalled, you can know to avoid hazelnuts. When HVP is recalled, you'd have to avoid just about any processed, packaged food to avoid it. (Which isn't such a bad idea, for your health or the health of the environment.)

"This situation clearly underscores the need for new food safety legislation to equip FDA with the tools we need to prevent contamination," said Dr. Jeff Farrar, associate commissioner for food safety, FDA's Office of Foods.

You know what else it underscores? How weirdly disgusting our food system is.

2.6.1 Changed legal status of Stevia Leaf


Where do you get your stevia? No one here in RI will sell it.

From: Mark D. Gold (mgold.holisticmed.com):

You should suggest to your local natural food stores and herb stores in RI that the legal status of stevia has changed recently. While importation of stevia was banned to protect Monsanto's NutraSweet sales and the future sales of other artificial sweeteners a few years ago, stevia can now be sold as a "dietary supplement." I have a copy of the FDA's new "Import Alert" on my Web page (or I can email it to you). Stevia products can and have been sold over the last few years as skin treatment products. Therefore, your local natural foods store should be able to get stevia skin treatment products and supplements from their distributor (or they should find a distributor who does sell it).

Stevia still cannot be legally sold as a "sweetener" by itself or in another product. This will help protect companies such as Monsanto (selling a dangerous artificial sweetener - aspartame) from having to compete against a safe, natural sweetener on a large-scale basis. But at least individuals can now use stevia as a supplement.

I have a list of stevia resources on my web page which you can use and give to your local natural foods store. Hope this helps.

Agave is food...a natural sweetener...but is what you find on store shelves natural?

The starchy Agave Root Bulb is used for modern "Agave Syrup."  

Traditional use was from the sap of the plant.

Joel Furhman, MD, blog:  he disagrees with Barry Groves and Weston Price.

"Barry Groves doesn't get the idea that I am not defending the American diet or the almost worthless recommendations of the American Heart Association. However, I am claiming that my dietary and nutritional recommendations are dramatically protective and can enable people to heart-attack-proof their bodies."

The air we breathe is food.  The odors in the air are 'food.'  

Our thoughts are 'food.'  

Our experiences are 'food.'  What we hear is 'food.'

Choose carefully.
