The word canola was a made-up word that stands for Canada oil! I also didn’t know that canola oil comes from a genetically engineered plant that was developed in Canada. It comes from the Rapeseed plant! I also didn’t know that rapeseed oils are used to produce industrial oil – oils that are used for industry and that it is toxic to humans and animals.

What next? The powers that be produce an oil that is poisonous to living things and used as an insect repellent and then sell it as a food item for humans! Did I miss something in this equation?

The next time you go shopping, choose wisely. Remember you vote on food choices every time you put something in your mouth. Use coconut oil for cooking and olive oil for salads (doesn’t do well when it is heated). I promise your body will thank you for it.

The following substances are toxic and add to illness, depression, increased appetite, altering of the body’s biochemistry and/or body fat.  Here are a couple of things you can do today to start turning their health around immediately.

Throw away anything in your home that contains hydrogenated or partially hydrogenated oils (aka trans fats), high fructose corn syrup, artificial sweeteners (yes, even splenda) or dyes of any kind, milk and dairy products (milk was meant for baby cows but if you must indulge on occasion, consume raw organic products).  Eliminate soda, sports drinks and most all juices of any kind unless they are fresh squeezed with all the fiber intact.

MSG (mono sodium glutamate) should never ever be consumed as it is a deadly excito-toxin.  An excito-toxin is a substance that has an exciting effect on the system but is also toxic and poison to the system.  It tricks the brain into thinking that the food is really great tasting.  Excito-toxins are often referred to as “flavor enhancers”!   I refer to them as body degraders.  Excito-toxins are added to food to make any food taste better than it would without it.  It is for that reason that it is added to substandard cheap food!  It instantly over stimulates the brain/body and causes a craving for more food and before you know it, you are consuming way more than you would have consumed without the additive.  Did you know that excito-toxins similar to MSG are in most processed foods that are marketed to children?  Do you think this could be a significant factor in why our children are having so many concentration and focus problems in school?  Think this fact has anything to do with Autism and ADD?

Knowing what I know today prevents me from bringing anything processed into my home unless it is totally organic and made by someone I personally know and trust.

Here is a list of some better known excito-toxins:

Amino Sweet, Aspartame, Equal, Gelatin, Glutamate, Hydrolyzed Corn Gluten, Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein, MSG, Monosodium Glutamate, NMDA, Nutra Sweet, Sodium Caseinate, Splenda, Textured Protein …..  AND all of these and similar ingredients can be hidden in other ingredients and never called out exactly by name.  They are also known as “natural flavorings, spices, seasonings and flavoring”.  BEWARE!

The bottom line is that MSG, Equal, Nutra Sweet and their equivalent excito-toxins destroy cells in critical parts of the brain.  Why would anyone want to ingest something like this let alone give it to young children with growing, developing bodies?  I believe it is only ingested because the consumer is unaware of the danger and ramifications to the human body.  Education is key to turning around this assault on the human body.

A better low/no calorie choice, should you find the need for sweeteners, would be xylitol or stevia.  Xylitol is a naturally occurring carbohydrate found in fibrous veggies and fruits as well as birch bark.  Xylitol is a natural occurring substance found in the human body that does not require insulin to metabolize.  Stevia is an herb from the Chrysanthemium family and is harvested from the leaves of the small shrubs.  There are over 300 species of stevia plants.  Again, buyers beware of any additives to these natural substances.  Many times, corporations will use the name of the sweetener leaving you thinking you are consuming a natural product when in fact, there are additives in the stevia and xylitol which allow them to be private labeled and patented.  Read packages carefully.

If you are working on getting healthy, sugar is one of the first things you should dump from your shopping list.  Well that isn’t exactly true, I knew it should be but I really didn’t know why.  That’s not true either.  I knew it caused problems but I didn’t know how bad those problems could be.  And that is the truth.  Here are some more facts I haven’t revealed yet

Life expectancy is declining for the first time in human history.

It has been said by many health practitioners that we are raising the first generation of Americans to live sicker and die younger than their parents.

Almost 30 percent of diabetics over the age of 40 have impaired sensation in their feet.  This often leads to amputations.

It is estimated that diabetics die an average of six years earlier than non-diabetics.  The pain leading up to their death for many, is excruciating.  They can suffer for years so one really has to consider the quality of life and not just life expectancy.

Over the next decade it is estimated that direct health care costs will be over $3.4 trillion dollars for issues that are related to diabetic and pre-diabetic conditions.

Type 2 diabetes is the result of too much insulin, not too little.

Insulin resistance happens when one consumes too many empty calories from soda and sugary drinks along with eating too many refined carbohydrates like pasta, potatoes, bread, and the like.  The result is that your cells become resistant or another way of putting it, your cells become numb to the effects of insulin.

Worsening insulin resistance symptoms include the loss of muscle, the increase of fat storage, inflammation, rapid aging and overall bodily deterioration.

If you are working on getting healthy, sugar is one of the first things you should dump from your shopping list.  Well that isn’t exactly true, I knew it should be but I really didn’t know why.  That’s not true either.  I knew it caused problems but I didn’t know how bad those problems could be.  And that is the truth.  Here are some more facts I haven’t revealed yet:

One out of three children in America are overweight.

Childhood obesity tripled from 1980 to 2010.

In New York City alone, it is estimated that 40 percent of the children are overweight or obese.

Tragically today we see eight year old children with diabetes, fifteen year olds dealing with strokes and 25 year old adults needing cardiac bypass surgery.

From 1983 to 2008, worldwide diabetes increased from 35 million people to 240 million.  From 2008 to 2011 that number increased by another 110 million.

One third of all diabetics have heart disease.  This does not include people that have not yet been diagnosed or those that don’t even think they have a problem.

Pre-diabetics are four times more likely to die of heart disease.

Diabetics have a four times greater chance of getting dementia.

Seventy five percent of people with diabetes have high blood pressure.

Diabetic women are 29 percent more likely to develop depression and for women taking insulin, that number goes up to 53 percent.

It is imperative that people that have been severely dieting previous to doing hCG, gorge on fatty foods a week prior to beginning the protocol to restock the normal fat reserves.  That kind of dieting was depleting normal fat reserves, which is something that should always be avoided.  HCG will target the abnormal fat reserves only, the cellulite along with belly and hip fat depletion is common.  It will never touch normal (structural or fuel) fat reserves.  That is the reason that severe dieting without hCG ends up leaving a person looking drawn, haggard, tired and in some cases wrinkly.  Structural fat is a necessity.  You never want to sacrifice that for the sake of losing a pound.

Tell the USDA to Keep Agent Orange Corn Off Your Plate!

Right now the USDA is considering the approval of a dangerous new GMO crop that has been genetically engineered to tolerate the highly toxic chemical 2,4-D, a main component of the Vietnam War era defoliant Agent Orange. As the first generation of biotech crops has failed, creating millions of acres infected with superweeds, the biotech industry is now introducing even more dangerous chemicals into our food system. Already thousands of farmers and environmentalists are raising concern over the potential harm Dow Chemical’s 2,4-D corn will cause to human health, the environment and the livelihoods of family farmers. Already, the chemical herbicide 2,4-D has been called one of “the most dangerous chemicals out there”. But we need your help to stop it. Please click on the link below to join us in telling the USDA to keep Agent Orange corn off our plates.

If you are working on getting healthy, sugar is one of the first things you should dump from your shopping list, especially after you have gone through a detox. After a total detox with hCG, you won’t be craving sugar any longer, not really. Your mind may crave it based on old habits and thought patterns, but your body won’t. What we are offer at A Voice For Change, is a way to work on changing the sugar mindset now that the body is cleaned up and out. Get a copy of Coach D’s new book and review the chapter on EFT or NLP for assistance with clearing mind clutter.

Rumor has it that genetically modified (GM) foods are properly tested, safe and are very possibly the ultimate answer to world hunger. Right this very minute, states like Vermont are being pushed into a corner. We the people want to know which foods are GM foods. We want labeling on the products we purchase so we can make the decision if we want to purchase them or not. Companies like Monsanto are fighting that request. They are even threatening to sue states like Vermont if they go ahead with labeling plans. As you can guess, Vermont is buckling under the pressure of affordability. Other states are watching closely. How can already strapped states afford to defend their stand on this request with the likes of fat cats such as Monsanto with very deep pockets bullying them into submission? It seems to me that the corporate mafia is alive and well these days. And you thought Al Capon was a bad guy! You thought Hitler was dead?

Let’s get to the facts. According to Pushpa M. Bhargava, a world renowned biologist, genetically modified organisms are a major contributor to the sharply deteriorating health of America. Dr. John Boyles, a Ohio allergist states “I used to test for soy allergies all the time, but now that soy is genetically engineered, it is so dangerous that I tell people never to eat it.” Michigan internal medicine specialist, Dr. Amy Dean who is a board member of the American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM) further states and “strongly recommends patients eat strictly non-genetically modified foods.” Dr. Edward W. Pearson, honor graduate of the University of Florida as well as the South Florida College of Medicine, a Diplomat with the American Board of Holistic Medicine and graduate of the Institute of Functional Medicine, is of the same mindset. He practices along side of his wife Dr. Julie Pearson, who is a specialist in pediatric health, pregnancy and organic healthcare. They started the New Medicine Foundation with a global mission to elevate the health and health education of humanity. Their practice has set out to correct the ailing healthcare systems throughout the world. They feel very strongly that there is a complete lack of health education from our schools to our healthcare systems and that the conventional medical model has been corrupted with the profitability of our drug and surgery based emergency care system.

The truth is that the AAEM has called out to “Physicians to educate their patients, the medical community and the public to avoid GM foods when possible and provide educational materials concerning GM foods and health risks.” They also called for a moratorium on GM foods, as well as labeling and long-term independent studies. The AAEM further stated that there are “Several animal studies (that) indicate serious health risks associated with GM food,” Some of those risks included accelerated aging, insulin regulation, infertility, immune problems and changes in gastrointestinal and other major organ systems. The AAEM went on further to conclude that “There is more than a casual association between GM foods and adverse health effects…there is causation,”.

What happened between 1990 and now? Back then, it was the FDA’s scientific consensus that GM foods were dangerous and could possibly create difficulties with allergies, poisons, nutritional problems, gut issues and even new diseases. It was originally the FDA that recommended long term testing of new GMO foods.

Well, I’ll tell you what happened. Political agendas ordered the FDA to promote biotechnology. The FDA’s answer to that order was to hire Michael Taylor, Monsanto’s former attorney, to oversee the formation of GMO policy. Doesn’t this sound like the story of the wolf guarding the hen house? The Whitehouse wolves pressured the FDA to get GM foods to store shelves quickly, forcing officials to rubber-stamp research from greedy biotech companies like Monsanto. Once again, it is proven that the FDA is in bed with big corporations in addition to big pharma.

Don’t believe me, guess where Mr. Michael Taylor went next. He later returned to Monsanto and became their Vice President leaving that position in January of 2010 because he was appointed deputy commissioner for foods at the FDA. The bottom line is that there is a revolving door policy between government regulators, the FDA and the biotech industry. That revolving door allowed GM foods to enter our food supply ten years ago blindly led by those with ulterior motives, no safety studies and without even a single published human clinical trial. Doesn’t this sound like something we have read about in history books? I think the guys name I’m referring to is Hitler! I for one am appalled. You should be too.

Follow suit and have your voice heard. Pick up the phone now and call Governor Schumlin’s office. He needs our support so that he too isn’t controlled by the Hitler’s of the world.

His phone number is: 802-828-3333
The toll free number is: 800-649-6825
The fax number is: 802-828-3339
Emails can also be sent to: GovernorVT@state.vt.us

Vermont’s GMO Labeling law is sitting in their legislature and their legislative session ends May 1st. This law needs to be passed before the end of their session. Tell the governor not to buckle under Monsanto’s pressure. With the support of the people behind him, he can only succeed. Cave in and we’re all losers anyway. We shouldn’t let a lawsuit dictate our actions. Right is right, genetically modified or not!
