The Invisible Nuclear Threat Within Non-Organic Food

'Whether you know it or or not, nuclear waste (cobalt-60) has been used for decades to make your food "safer."

There is a profound misunderstanding in the mass market today about the value of certified organic food. The question is not whether the 50% higher or more you pay at the register for an organic product is really worth the added vitamin, mineral and phytonutrient content you receive. 

 Even though organic food does usually have considerably higher nutrient density, it is not always the positive quality of what it contains that makes it so special. Rather, it is what you know the organic food does not contain, or what has not happened to it on its journey to your table, that makes buying organic a no-brainer to the educated consumer. Let me explain.'

At the plant itself there’s trash on the floor, and flies crawl over baskets of processed shrimp stacked in an unchilled room.'

The history of how wheat became toxic (Long but informative)

'Modern wheat has had a very long history of hybridization, starting with ancestral grasses in the wild and also occurring naturally in farmers’ fields in antiquity. Humans have continued the process chemically in the last century, and especially during the last 50 years in order to increase yields, resist fungal diseases and pest attacks, improve ease of mechanical harvesting and meet rigorous demands of industrial milling and mechanized baking methods.' 

'But even before these latest GMO changes[in the works], it appears that recent forced and accelerated hybridizations have changed wheat nutritionally in ways that no one seems to have considered, while research into the health effects of these transformations has barely begun. It is through the story of modern wheat’s pedigree, some of which is still disputed by archaeobotanists, that some light can be shed upon gluten intolerance and celiac disease.'

The Food Industry Has Planned It Well: Diets High In Refined Sugar and Processed Oils Cause The Brain To Overconsume

'The food industry as planned mass over-consumption very well. They have created an abundance of consumers who can't help but eat themselves into oblivion. Most people don't even realize how much food they're actually consuming. New research indicates that diets that lead to obesity -- specifically diets high in refined sugars -- may cause changes to the brains of obese people that in turn may fuel over-consumption of those same foods and make weight loss more challenging.'

The Corporate Takeover of Science and the Destruction of Freedom

'When rich companies with politically-connected lobbyists fund their own research and distort outcomes for their own ends, we are in serious trouble. Due to the corporate takeover of science, our choices, rights and freedoms are currently in the process of being destroyed.



In a genuine ‘age of reason,’ science would assist in providing clear answers to issues, and the public would be able to engage in open, honest debate over the rights and wrongs of policies. Instead, corporate interests have used their junk science, lobbyists, presence within the heart of governments and PR machines to muddy the waters and sometimes engage in fear-mongering so that public debate has too often become distorted and campaigns of deliberate misinformation have become commonplace.'

Modern Lifestyles And The Devolution Of The Human Species

'The connections between the rising rates of chronic disease and the production and consumption of modern foods can no longer be ignored. Our food supply is not healthy, nor is it sustainable. It has changed so dramatically that we have yet to adapt to the changes. Our food supply has been completely adulterated over the past few decades alone, more drastically than during any other time in history. '

WORLD’S MOST EXOTIC COOKING OILS

'Often touted as one of the pillars of a “healthy” kitchen, olive oil is the most widely used beneficial cooking oil. However, there are a wealth of other wholesome options that shouldn’t be overlooked. Say farewell to trans-fats, hydrogenated shortenings, and heavily saturated fats like palm oil…and make some room for some flavorful, unsaturated options in your pantry.


More and more exotic oils are popping up every day, making it easy to sample terroirs from around the world. Here, five that topped our taste test.'

WHY in the World Are They Spraying? Lifts Veil on Geo-engineering

“WHY in the World are They Spraying?” lifts the veil on a major geo-engineering agenda that is at the forefront of our fight for food sovereignty. There are people who are working full time at controlling the food and thereby, controlling the population while maximizing profit at the expense of those whom they profit from, and like a tick that sucks the blood from its host with no thought whatsoever of the host’s health or well being, these people put profit ahead of life. And it appears that they may be spraying our skies…

I can’t begin to tell you how geo-engineering can change the face of agriculture as we know it.''

Have We All Gone Multigrain Crazy?

'Multigrain snacks have proliferated throughout the food industry, but are these products really healthy as what their labels suggest?

7-grain, 12-grain, whole wheat, all-natural multi-grain, whole grain whole wheat....What, what, what? 

Just take a look at the products on the shelves of your local grocery store. There is a healthy multigrain substitute for everything - be it bread, noodles, biscuits or chips. Most brands are exploiting the multigrain craze that has caught the fancy of people of late. However, are they really healthy as these companies claim?'

Deceptions in the Food Industry: Baked versus Fried

'In this continuing series of Deceptions in the Food Industry, I want to address yet another fallacy the food industry uses to make us think a product they sell is healthy – baked versus fried on labels. I know a lot of people who eat real food would never touch a bag of the above pictured products. But, I still see a lot of people in general eating these foods, and I see them sold in many places.
I frequently see packages of chips, crackers, or other packaged foods that read “baked” or “baked instead of fried” on the label. I also hear people say that when you bake something instead of fry it – even some home-made foods – it’s healthier.'

How to Make Your Own Vitamin Water

'The idea of drinking vitamin water is definitely appealing. I don’t know of anyone who actually enjoys taking vitamin supplements in pill form. I also know that many people don’t like the taste of plain water. However, the type of vitamin water most people are familiar with, the bottled brand Vitaminwater®, owned by Glacéau, a privately owned subsidiary of Coca-Cola company, is unhealthy — to say the least. 

Even Coca-Cola’s attorneys recently admitted that Vitaminwater® is unhealthy in response to a lawsuit filed by the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI). In court briefings, one of the attorneys replied, “No consumer could reasonably be misled into thinking Vitaminwater® was a healthy beverage.”

Yet Coca-Cola has marketed their Vitaminwater® for years as a healthful beverage.

In fact, the company has claimed Vitaminwater® reduces the risk of chronic disease, promotes healthy joints, supports immune function, and may also help reduce the risk of eye disease.'

Is The Food We Eat Killing Us?

Indyposted.com


'Are we digging our own graves with our teeth? Is the food that we eat every day slowly killing us? When I was growing up, I just assumed that everything in the grocery store was perfectly safe and perfectly healthy. I just assumed that the government and the big corporations were watching out for us and that they would never allow something harmful to be sold in the stores.


Boy, was I wrong! Today, the average American diet is extremely unhealthy. Most of the foods that we all love to eat are absolutely packed with things that will damage our health. Many of the ingredients that make our foods "taste good" such as fat, salt and sugar can be extremely damaging in large amounts. On top of that, most processed foods are absolutely loaded with chemicals and preservatives.


The next time you go to the grocery store, just start turning over packages and read the "ingredients" that are being put into our food. If you have never done this before, you will be absolutely amazed. In many of our most common foods there are "ingredients" that I cannot even pronounce. Sadly, most Americans have no idea that eating a steady diet of these processed foods will likely leave them massively overweight, very sick and much closer to death.'

Food Fascism: Mothers Threatened with Criminal Charges for Helping to Provide Fresh Farm Food to Friends and Neighbors

Farmer Charged Criminally for Providing Fresh Food to Mothers
