Is the label right?

I found that labeling is and can be very confusing – for example in order to be able to use the Organic label
dairy and all farmers alike, have to prove that not only do they not use the growth hormone, but they also do not feed the cows GMO corn and GMO feed.  Thus, the only way to ensure one is not consuming a GMO organism, is to look for the
 label.  

Here are a few websites that maybe of interest:



The health challenges begin with the seed since everything that consumes the DNA of changed/modified seed(s), has its DNA changed permanently.  While there has been little studies within the USA, the French conducted a 2 year study https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1FrOI6_rr8

GMOs - Food or Poison?

I do not know who Stephen Durrance of Winter Haven is, but based upon his comments, he appears to be an employee of Monsanto.

For all those who think Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are safe foods, one must first understand that by its own definition, “Modified” means something (the DNA) was CHANGED thus making Organically grown food and GMO grown food to be COMPLETELY different.

DNA is the source of life – it has been scientifically proven that the DNA of organically grown foods are foods that can be used as medicine and promote a healthy life.  In short, it is the DNA of plants and animals that turn on or turn off genes within our own bodies to either promote healthy growth OR to develop unhealthy genes/DNA which produce illness and disease.  

Studies in other Countries have shown animals who consume GMO foods either die, develop cancerous growths, and the now damaged/changed/modified DNA is subsequently passed on to future generations and this is a PERMANENT change (good or bad) to the DNA forever

If in Haiti, when devastated by natural disasters and in desperate need of food rejected, refused and BURNED Monsanto’s seeds, they call them “Seeds of Death”, what does tell you?

19 May 2009 The American Academy Of Environmental Medicine Calls For Immediate Moratorium On Genetically Modified Foods (see http://www.aaemonline.org/gmopressrelease.html)  The AAEM calls for: (DID YOUR Doctor warn you about GMOs?)

 

  • A moratorium on GM food, implementation of immediate long term safety testing and labeling of GM food.
  • Physicians to educate their patients, the medical community and the public to avoid GM foods.  (Did your doctor warn you?)
  • Physicians to consider the role of GM foods in their patients' disease processes.  (Did your doctor warn you?)
  • More independent long term scientific studies to begin gathering data to investigate the role of GM foods on human health.
"Multiple animal studies have shown that GM foods cause damage to various organ systems in the body. With this mounting evidence, it is imperative to have a moratorium on GM foods for the safety of our patients' and the public's health," said Dr. Amy Dean, PR chair and Board Member of AAEM. 

In closing, until we have objective studies (studies NOT conducted by Monsanto, BioTech firms or chemical companies) that prove GMO Foods are Safe for human and animal consumption, the first thing the Consumer can do at this point is to Demand Organically grown food from their grocer and to only consume Organically grown foods.

Stop buying processed foods and GMO foods.  In doing so, the market place will drive these Franken foods from the Marketplace, as it has in other Countries when their residents stood up to protect their families health.

The American Academy Of Environmental Medicine Calls For Immediate Moratorium On Genetically Modified Foods

Has YOUR Doctor informed you about the medical hazards that GMOs present to your health and that you should consume only Organically grown foods?  If not, ask him/her why not.

The American Academy Of Environmental Medicine Calls For
Immediate Moratorium On Genetically Modified Foods



Wichita, KS - The American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) today released its position paper on Genetically Modified foods stating that "GM foods pose a serious health risk" and calling for a moratorium on GM foods. Citing several animal studies, the AAEM concludes "there is more than a casual association between GM foods and adverse health effects" and that "GM foods pose a serious health risk in the areas of toxicology, allergy and immune function, reproductive health, and metabolic, physiologic and genetic health."

The AAEM calls for: 
  • A moratorium on GM food, implementation of immediate long term safety testing and labeling of GM food.

  • Physicians to educate their patients, the medical community and the public to avoid GM foods.

  • Physicians to consider the role of GM foods in their patients' disease processes.

  • More independent long term scientific studies to begin gathering data to investigate the role of GM foods on human health.
"Multiple animal studies have shown that GM foods cause damage to various organ systems in the body. With this mounting evidence, it is imperative to have a moratorium on GM foods for the safety of our patients' and the public's health," said Dr. Amy Dean, PR chair and Board Member of AAEM.

"Physicians are probably seeing the effects in their patients, but need to know how to ask the right questions," said Dr. Jennifer Armstrong, President of AAEM. "The most common foods in North America which are consumed that are GMO are corn, soy, canola, and cottonseed oil."

The AAEM's position paper on Genetically Modified foods can be found athttp:aaemonline.org/gmopost.html.

AAEM is an international association of physicians and other professionals dedicated to addressing the clinical aspects of environmental health. More information is available at www.aaemonline.org.

Is the GOP the party of Death, illness, and lack of Compassion?

Is the GOP the party of Death, illness, and lack of Compassion?

In light of recent Documentaries (FED UP, GMO OMG, The World According to Monsanto) , is the GOP now  the party of Death, illness, and lack of Compassion, since they take money from Big Sugar, Big Pharma and the GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) and Chemical, Bio-Tech industries while protecting the interests of these industries, it does NOTHING to protect its citizens?

As a long standing Republican and 100% Disabled Veteran, I was so disappointed and disheartened by the GOP miss-information campaign about Medical Marijuana, and after watching the documentaries, FED UP, GMO-OMG, The World According to Monsanto, I realize that I can NO LONGER support any politician or political party, that is in bed with these industries.  

With Sugar being 8 times MORE Addictive than Cocaine, why hasn’t the GOP and Grady Judd, campaigned against SUGAR – oh, that’s right, the GOP takes money from Big Sugar/Big Pharma/BioTech industries and they couldn't get money from Medical Marijuana.

 With every breath I have left I am committed in telling everyone I know, regardless of party to do their due their diligence and follow the:
Plan of Action:
1. Education (4 documentaries every home should see NOW) –
a. FED UP,
b. GMO OMG,
c. The World According to Monsanto
d. America Imagine the World without Her
e. and we continue to educate about the medical benefits of Marijuana
2. Eat Organic which will force these industries out of business while
a. making us all healthy
b. help us reclaim the land and water from over fertilization and by removing pesticides from food, soil and water
3. Only vote for candidates that have not taken monies from these industries and who support Medical Marijuana
4. Share these steps with everyone we know – and the People will prevail.

That said, where do you stand on the issue of GMOs and Big Sugar Governor?

Now that 58% of Floridians voted in favor of medical marijuana, are you going to do your job and ensure the peoples voice is heard and make sure the Legislature works to implement a truly viable Medical Marijuana bill? Or are you going to cave to Big Sugar and Big Pharma?

For all those who think Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are safe foods

I do not know who Stephen Durrance of Winter Haven is, but based upon his comments, he appears to be an employee of Monsanto.

For all those who think Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs) are safe foods, watch this short clip about a 2 year French Study on GMOs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j1FrOI6_rr8  (vice the 90 day study conducted by Monsanto)  and watch the full length movie "the World According to Monsanto"  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6_DbVdVo-k

If you want to learn more about GMOs, watch the following documentaries: While these documentaries are available on Bright house cable documentary section, I’d suggest you watch the sooner than later – you never know when they will be pulled from viewing.  If you find that these documentaries have been pulled, contact Brighthouse and complain.

If you notice that these documentaries are being removed, that should scream volumes to you because Monsanto is trying to shut down the conversation.  If in Haiti, when devastated by storms and in desperate need of food rejected, refused and BURNED Monsanto’s seeds, they call them Seeds of Death, what does tell you. You can also purchase these documentaries online.

What you and your family can do immediately is eat only Organically grown foods and demand them from your grocer

By refusing to purchase GMO and processed foods, you will drive GMOs from our grocery stores.  All the Countries around the world who were able to get their foods labeled, ALL chose Organic foods over GMOs and drove GMOs from their market place

What does that tell you – we need to make sure we here in the USA be at least be provided with clear labeling of our foods so WE can choose what we consume or don’t consume.  This still is the USA – freedom of Choice should drive the market place, not a single company like Monsanto who wants to patent all seeds of life and thus control all food.

Is the GOP now the party of Death, illness, and lack of Compassion?

Is the GOP the “Party of No”, Or is the GOP the Party for Health, Truth and Honesty, OR , is the GOP now is the party of Death, illness, and lack of Compassion?

Recent admissions by Obamacare Architect, Johathan Gruber, PROVES without a shadow of doubt, that the Democratic Party is the Party of Lies, Deception and dishonesty. 

 Jonathan Gruber bragged about deceiving the American people, who he thinks are stupid.

Gruber’s comments will blow your mind.
·                 “This bill was written in a tortured way to make sure CBO did not score the mandate as taxes. If CBO scores the mandate as taxes the bill dies. So it’s written to do that… If you get a law that says healthy people are going to pay and sick people would get money, it would not have passed.
·                 Lack of transparency is a huge political advantage. And, basically, call it the stupidity of the American voter or whatever, but basically that was really very very critical to get the thing to pass. And, you know, it’s the second best argument. I wish Mark was right we could make this transparent but I would rather have this law than not.”
And, that is exactly what Democrats did. They lied to the American people in order to pass Obamacare.  Makes one wonder what else they lied about (Benghazi, Fast and Furious, IRS targeting, the War on Women)
In light of recent Documentaries (FED UP, GMO OMG, The World According to Monsanto) , is the GOP now  the party of Death, illness, and lack of Compassion, since they take money from Big Sugar, Big Pharma and the GMO (Genetically Modified Organism) and Chemical, Bio-Tech industries while protecting the interests of these industries, it does NOTHING to protect its citizens?

With every breath I have left I am committed in telling everyone I know, regardless of party to do their due their diligence and follow the:
Plan of Action:
·       Education (4 documentaries every home should see NOW) –
o    FED UP,
o   GMO OMG,
o   and we continue to educate about the medical benefits of Marijuana
·       Eat Organic which will force these industries
o   out of business
o   while making us all healthy
§  can provide info on ‘how’ to eat healthy
§  can form support groups for example that teach folks on how to eat organic etc
o   help us reclaim the land and water from over fertilization and by removing pesticides from food, soil and water
·       Only vote for candidates that have not taken monies from these industries and who support Medical Marijuana
·       Share these 4 steps with everyone we know – and the People will prevail.

A Pin Drop...

Every household needs to see the movie trailer America, Imagine the World without Her..


Once upon a time our politicians tended to apologize for our country's prior actions.  Here's a refresher on how some of our former patriots handled negative comments about our country.
These are good
JFK'S
Secretary of State, Dean Rusk, was in France in the early 60's when DeGaulle decided to pull out of NATO. DeGaulle said he wanted all US military out of France as soon as possible.

Rusk responded,
"Does that include those who are buried here?"

DeGaulle did not respond.
You  could have heard a pin drop.

When in England ,
at a fairly large conference, Colin Powell was asked by the
Archbishop of Canterbury if our plans for Iraq were just an example of
'empire building' by George Bush.

He answered by saying,
"Over the years, the United States has sent many of
its fine young men and women into great peril to fight for freedom
beyond our borders. The only amount of land we have ever asked for
in return is enough to bury those that did not
return."

You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There was a conference in France
where a number of international engineers
were taking part, including French and American. During a break,
one of the French engineers came back into the room saying, "Have you
heard the latest dumb stunt Bush has done? He has sent an aircraft
carrier to Indonesia to help the tsunami victims. What does he
intend to do, bomb them?"
A Boeing engineer
stood up and replied quietly: "Our carriers have three
hospitals on board that can treat several hundred people; they are
nuclear powered and can supply emergency electrical power to
shore facilities; they have three cafeterias with the capacity to
feed 3,000 people three meals a day, they can produce several thousand
gallons of fresh water from sea water each day, and they carry half a
dozen helicopters for use in transporting victims and injured to and
from their flight deck. We have eleven such ships;
how many does France have?"

You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A U..S. Navy Admiral
was attending a naval conference that included
Admirals from the U.S., English, Canadian, Australian and French
Navies At a cocktail reception, he found himself standing with a large
group of officers that included personnel from most of those countries..
Everyone was chatting away in English as they sipped their drinks but a
French admiral suddenly complained that, whereas Europeans learn many
languages, Americans learn only English. He then asked, "Why is it that
we always have to speak English in these conferences rather than
speaking French?"
Without hesitating,
the American Admiral replied, "Maybe it's because the
Brit's, Canadians, Aussie's and Americans arranged it so you wouldn't
have to speak German."


You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
AND
THIS STORY FITS RIGHT IN WITH THE ABOVE...
Robert Whiting,
an elderly gentleman of 83, arrived in Paris by plane.
At French Customs, he took a few minutes to locate his passport
in his carry on.
"You
have been to France before, monsieur?" the customs officer asked
sarcastically.
Mr. Whiting
admitted that he had been to France previously.
"Then you should know enough to have your passport ready."
The American said,
"The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."
"Impossible..
Americans always have to show their passports on arrival in France !"


The American senior
gave the Frenchman a long hard look. Then he
quietly explained, ''Well, when I came ashore at Omaha Beach on D-Day in
1944 to help liberate this country, I couldn't find a single Frenchmen
to show a passport to."

You could have heard a pin drop.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
If you are proud to be an American, pass this on! If not, delete it.
I am proud to be of this land, AMERICA
