data, which was collected from official sources in the UK and EU, demonstrate
that both food supplements and herbal remedies are in the 'super-safe' category
of individual risk – meaning risk of death from their consumption is less than
1 in 10 million. The group has created an excellent graphic3 showing your
relative risk of death from a variety of activities. Besides drugs and hospital
injuries, you're also more likely to die from being struck by lightning or

"These figures tell us not only what activities an individual is most or

minerals and herbal supplements have a tremendously safe track record, yet they
are often singled out as being potentially dangerous by government agencies like
the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA). This – the notion that dietary
supplements are unsafe -- was the premise behind the FDA's Draft Guidance on
New Dietary Ingredients (NDI), which would have required the supplement
industry to prove the safety of natural ingredients that, in many cases, have
been on the market and used safely for decades! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

public outcry made the agency agree to take another look at their proposed
guidance and to issue a revised draft. It's still not known when the revisions
might be completed. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Arial","sans-serif"; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin;">The
original NDI draft essentially claimed dietary supplements are unsafe and must
be carefully tested in order to "protect consumers." The proposed
safety thresholds even exceeded those required by pharmaceutical drugs -- despite
extensive toxicological data showing supplements are FAR safer than drugs. As
detailed above, drugs are 62,000 times more likely to kill you than
supplements!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Why on earth would

from the United States fully corroborates the featured UK data. For example,
according to the latest data from the US National Poison Data System (2010
report), NO deaths were attributable to vitamin and mineral supplements that
year. And, as noted by Orthomolecular Medicine News Service last year,
Americans easily take more than 60 billion doses of nutritional supplements
every year, and with zero related deaths this is an outstanding safety record:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

over half of the U.S. population takes daily nutritional supplements. Even if
each of those people took only one single tablet daily, that makes 165,000,000
individual doses per day, for a total of over 60 billion doses annually. Since
many persons take far more than just one single vitamin or mineral tablet,
actual consumption is considerably higher, and the safety of nutritional
supplements is all the more remarkable. Over 60 billion doses of vitamin and
mineral supplemnts per year in the USA, and not a single fatality. Not one. If
vitamin and mineral supplements are allegedly so 'dangerous,' as the FDA and
news media so often claim, then where are the bodies?" <o:p></o:p></span></i></div>

at all possible, I strongly urge you to make sure you're getting out in the sun
on a daily basis. There is preliminary evidence suggesting that oral vitamin D
may not provide the identical benefits, although it's still better than none at
all. To determine the times of year that you can optimize your vitamin D levels
through sun exposure, please see this previous article.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

So why has California made their sale illegal unless accompanied by a scary and verbose warning label? </i><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; ">Both pregnenolone and DHEA are naturally produced “parent” hormones to a variety of other hormones, including the sex hormones estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone, as well as hormones vital for controlling blood mineral content and metabolism. And both DHEA and pregnenolone have a number of startling benefits.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; ">Pregnenolone aids in the development of new brain cells, produces significant improvements in both depression and schizophrenia, and shows promise in mitigating memory loss and even some of the abnormal structures in Alzheimer’s disease.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; ">DHEA supplementation helps create improvements in muscle strength and bone mineral density, with a reduction in body fat mass, and there is substantial support for DHEA supplementation in adrenal insufficiency, hypopituitarism, osteoporosis, systemic lupus, depression, schizophrenia, and balancing the overproduction of cortisol produced by excessive stress. Too much cortisol ages us rapidly; a little extra DHEA can make all the difference.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; ">Despite the overwhelmingly positive scientific research (last year alone, 380 new papers were published about DHEA), and despite their having been shown to be both safe and effective in decades of continued use by millions of people, California now mandates a warning on both DHEA and pregnenolone saying, in a lengthy text, that exceeding recommended serving may cause “serious adverse health effects” like rapid heartbeat, dizziness, blurred vision, or seizure.<br /><br />Such a warning will scare consumers away from these important supplements. No peer-reviewed studies have ever shown that DHEA or pregnenolone are associated with rapid heartbeat, dizziness, or blurred vision. No published studies have shown any risk of seizure from pregnenolone supplementation unless the patient already had a history of seizures.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; ">Research on pregnenolone began in the 1930s. Studies in the 1940s showed that pregnenolone was effective on autoimmune disorders, including rheumatoid arthritis. But it was discarded when Merck’s newly introduced pharmaceutical agent, cortisone, was announced as a cure-all for rheumatoid arthritis in 1949.

It does so by literally <em><span>nourishing</span></em> the brain. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >First, it increases blood flow to the brain through mild dilation of the blood vessels, which in turn dramatically boosts glucose and oxygen uptake by the brain's 100 billion neurons. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >The neurons thrive on this increased glucose and oxygen, which in turn is used to produce prodigious quantities of <em><span>adenosine triphosphate</span></em>, or ATP, which is pure cellular energy. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >This increased production of ATP within the brain quite rapidly boosts the metabolism, or energy activity of the entire brain back to the levels of a young adult. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >Finally, this increased energy activity triggers two crucial functions in the brain: increased cell-to-cell communication for quicker thinking, and repair and/or replacement of damaged brain cells for optimal brain function." <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >Experts say Vinpocetine boosts the circulation of oxygen-rich and glucose-rich blood to the brain so effectively it almost immediately results in a vastly increased ability to concentrate and focus. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >In fact, in one recent clinical study, 62% of healthy subjects exhibited significant short-term memory improvement only <em><span>one hour</span></em> after taking 40 mg. of Vinpocetine. [Eur J Clin Pharmacol1985;28(5):567-71]. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >What's more, recent research has demonstrated that Vinpocetine also boosts circulation of oxygen-rich blood to the <em><span>eyes</span></em>, thereby improving vision and eyesight disorders. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >In one study, Vinpocetine improved vision in 88% of test subjects [Arzneimittelforschung 1976;26(10a): 1969-72]. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >Vinpocetine also aids in the delivery of oxygen saturated blood to the inner ear, improving hearing as well as alleviating many inner-ear problems including tinnitus (ringing in the ears) and vertigo (dizziness) [AF DR 28, 1977-80]. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><strong><span>Get that Extra Mental Edge</span></strong><span> <o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >So if you're like me and you feel the need for that extra mental edge from time to time... <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >... or if you're reaching that age where you notice your cognitive abilities are slipping a bit and you want to provide your body with the nutrition it needs to get you back on top of your mental game... <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >... then you just might want to try safe, natural Vinpocetine. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p style="margin-bottom:6.0pt"><span >Its long-term safety has been demonstrated in medical studies to be <em><span>second to none</span></em>.

Thus it contains many essential trace minerals that your body needs in order to be healthy. <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >This natural salt is healthier than the iodized salt available in the market. Here this article covers 10 of the most important health benefits of sea salt.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit # 1: Strong Immune System<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Sea salt naturally helps you to build up a strong immune system so that you can fight off the cold virus, the fever and flu, allergies and other autoimmune disorders.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #2: Alkalizing<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Sea salt is alkalizing to the body, as it has not been exposed to high heat and stripped of its minerals, nor does it have any harmful man-made ingredients added to it. Thus it can help you to prevent and reverse high levels of acids in the body, which in turn eliminates the risks for serious and life-threatening diseases.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #3: Weight Loss<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Believe it or not, but sea salt can also help you in weight loss. It helps the body to create digestive juices so that the foods you eat are digested faster, and it helps to prevent buildup in the digestive tract, which eventually can lead to constipation and weight gain.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #4: Skin Conditions<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >A sea salt bath can help to relieve dry and itchy skin as well as serious conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. The bath naturally opens up the pores, improves circulation in the skin and hydrates the tissues so that your skin can heal.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #5: Asthma<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Sea salt is effective in reducing inflammation in the respiratory system. Thus the production of phlegm is slowed down so that you can breathe easier again. Some say that sprinkling sea salt on the tongue after drinking a glass of water is just as effective as using an inhaler. But the great thing about sea salt is that it has no side effects when taken in moderation.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #6: Hearth Health<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >When salt is taken with water it can help to reduce high cholesterol levels, high blood pressure and help to regulate an irregular heart beat. Thus sea salt can help to prevent atherosclerosis, heart attacks and strokes.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #7: Diabetes<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Sea salt can help to reduce the need for insulin by helping to maintain proper sugar levels in the body. Thus the salt is an essential part of the diet if you are diabetic, or at risk for the disease.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #8: Osteoporosis<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Just over 1/4 of the amount of salt that is in the body is stored in the bones, where it helps to keep them strong. When the body lacks salt and water it begins to draw the sodium from the bones, which then eventually can lead to osteoporosis. Thus by drinking plenty of water and consuming salt in moderation you can prevent osteoporosis.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #9: Muscle Spasms<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Potassium is essential for helping the muscles to function properly. Sea salt not only contains small amounts of potassium, but it also helps the body to absorb it better from other foods. Thus it is effective in helping to prevent muscle pains, spasms and cramps.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Benefit #10: Depression<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><span> </span><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >Sea salt also has shown to be effective in treating various types of depression. The salt helps to preserve two essential hormones in the body that help you to better deal with stress. These hormones are serotonin and melatonin, which help you to feel good, and relax and sleep better at night.<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span >From:<span> </span><a href="http://www.healthmango.com/dietnutrition/10-health-benefits-of-sea-salt/">http://www.healthmango.com/dietnutrition/10-health-benefits-of-sea-salt/</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span >Helpful Links:<o:p></o:p></span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><o:p> </o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.driboseadvantage.com/">Boost Cellular Energy With D-Ribose</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.vinpocetinegold.com/">Reverse Memory Loss With Vinpocetine</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.pregnenoloneadvantage.com/">Pregnenolone: The Happiness Hormone</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.dmgadvantage.com/">DMG: The Anti-Aging Nutrient of the 21<sup>st</sup> Century</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.macarootadvantage.com/">Boost Sexual Libido With Maca Root</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.cmosupreme.com/">CMO: The 30-Day Arthritis Pain Cure</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.hoodiamaximus.com/">Hoodia: Eliminates Hunger Pang All Day Long</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.jubilee3jointrelief.com/">Jubilee 3: Repairing Arthritic Joints, <i>Naturally</i></a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.thesilveredge.com/">Make Your Own Colloidal Silver Inexpensively</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.colloidalsilversuccessstories.com/">Real-Life Colloidal Silver Success Stories</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.colloidalsilversecretsvideo.com/">The Colloidal Silver Secrets Video</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=285212734559">Colloidal Silver Secrets Group on Facebook</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span ><a href="http://spencerj11.vaccrights.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_top">The Authoritative Guide to Vaccine Legal Exemptions</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span><a href="http://www.meetstevebarwick.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Meet Steve Barwick</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" ><o:p></o:p></span></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin;mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-latin"><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin;mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-latin"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>Steve Barwickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07609959967400251679noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102032094327566753.post-10452194626773777092011-08-22T22:33:00.000-07:002011-08-22T22:41:32.521-07:00How To Make Your Own Homeopathic Remedy<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QGg5IqVsiz0/TlM8R1174cI/AAAAAAAABG0/gwi44HRAxWI/s1600/homeopathy.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 158px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5643921035234107842" border="0" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QGg5IqVsiz0/TlM8R1174cI/AAAAAAAABG0/gwi44HRAxWI/s200/homeopathy.jpg" /></a><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><i><span><span >Ever been sick and wish you had a way to make your own highly effective homeopathic remedy, quickly, easily and in the comfort and privacy of your own home?<span> </span>Here’s what this expert on homeopathy recommends…<!--?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /--><o:p></o:p></span></span></i></p><span class="Apple-style-span" >
<br /></span><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span><span >What’s the value of knowing this? It’s immense! If you’re sea sick, you can make a remedy out of sea water; if you’re sick from vacationing in Mexico, you can make a remedy out of the local water that’s probably causing your ills; if the polluted air or pollens in the air are causing your problem, put a saucer of water outside for a few hours or days and let it collect whatever is in the air, and then make a remedy out of it. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p><span class="Apple-style-span" >
<br />The possibilities are endless; in fact, when you’re desperate, and you’ve seemingly tried everything, there’s your own body to make remedies from: your discharges, your urine, your blood–you’re never really without remedies, are you?
<br />
<br />So now, if you’re ready, here are the directions:
<br />
<br />Get a small bottle of spring water (but in an emergency any water will do), the exact amount of water or the size of the bottle is not relevant. I always say a small bottle because small is cheapest. So, an 8 ounce or 12 ounce bottle, let’s say. Pour half the water out (but save the water, don’t pour it down the drain).
<br />
<br />Now you have half a bottle of water. Pour in a small amount of what you’re trying to make a remedy of–let’s say for the sake of argument that you want to make “Homeopathic Pepsi Cola”; therefore, your water bottle should now consist of a solution of 90% water and 10% Pepsi–there’s no need to be fussy about your percentages–just guess at what 10% might be.
<br />
<br />“Succuss” this solution (pound the bottle into your opposite palm) 40 times and after having done that, get a piece of paper and write down “Pepsi 1X”–meaning that you now have Pepsi in the 1X potency, this means you’ve done a one-in-ten dilution with 40 succussions and you’ve done it just once.
<br />
<br />Now pour out 90% of this solution–again, no need to be fussy– and refill half way with spring or distilled water, succuss 40 times, and write down “2X” (meaning you’ve now dumped out, refilled, and succussed 40 times, twice).
<br />
<br />Now pour out 90% again and refill half way with water again and succuss 40 times again and write down “3X” this time. Keep doing this til you’ve reached either a 6X or a 12X or a 30X–depending on what potency you want. A 6X would have to be taken more often as it’s a lower potency–in a chronic case, two to four times a day; whereas, a 12X would be taken once or twice a day and a 30X as needed–one dose may be enough, depending on what’s wrong.
<br />
<br />Now label your bottle (Pepsi 6X) and store in the refrigerator. A sip is a dose. Before each dose, succuss 10 times. When the bottle gets low (when 90% is gone), fill it back up half way with water, succuss 40 times and now you’ll have a 7X; then, resume as before.
<br />
<br />If you’re trying to make your remedy from something more solid, like for example, if you want to antidote the side effects of a medicine you’re on, like Penicillin, for example. Empty a penicillin capsule into a small amount of water and let it sit until the water is thoroughly saturated with the substance. Stir the substance a few times. Now empty it into your water bottle to get the 90% water, 10% substance ratio that we talked about before. Now proceed with “potenization”, the process described above, for making a remedy out of Pepsi.
<br />
<br />A brief note on dosing: Let’s say you’ve made a 6X. In an acute, you may have to take a swallow every 15 minutes, taking less and less often as you get better. Always succuss the bottle before dosing. If you should get worse, stop the remedy; an improvement may follow. If it does, repeat only as needed.
<br />
<br />If you’re making this remedy for a chronic case, figure on three times a day, but be prepared to take more or less often, depending on how quickly or slowly you improve.
<br />
<br />HOW TO PLUS YOUR BOTTLE
<br />
<br />When your remedy bottle is no longer working, you’ll need to raise the potency. The way to do it is this:
<br />
<br />1. Pour out 90% of your bottle.
<br />
<br />2. Refill with bottled water half way.
<br />
<br />3. Succuss (pound the bottle into your opposite palm) 40 times.
<br />
<br />4. Again, for the second time, pour out 90% of the bottle.
<br />
<br />5. Refill with water half way.
<br />
<br />6. Succuss 40 times.
<br />
<br />7. Repeat one more time. You will now have raised the potency by 3 degrees. It should now start working again.
<br />
<br />Editor’s Note: Readers are advised not to start making remedies from everything listed in Paragraph 1. The procedure given in this article should be used only under special conditions when an indicated remedy is not available and that also after consulting with your homeopath.

In the past weeks radioactive levels have increased in Hawaii, with high spikes and a more current leveling off of radiation levels. Milk from the large dairies in Hamakua and Hawi has shown elevated levels of radiation, from 400 to 2400 times the recognized safe levels.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Why is milk contamination significant in the world of agriculture? Because milk represents the overall condition of the entire food chain, since cows consume grass and are exposed to the same elements as crops. So, when milk tests positive for radiation, it indicates the entire food chain is contaminated since cows eat grass. When grass is contaminated everything grown in the same soil is contaminated. This has proposed a serious concern to us farmers, with us asking what can we do? After much consideration, research, and conversations with much appreciated experts in the field of biological farming and human & animal health, we have found some things which we are able to do to protect our soil, animals, and bodies.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Aside from the much recognized supplement potassium iodine as a protection against radioactive iodine, there are a number of ways we can help. We have remembered our friend, elemental boron and the position it plays on the earth. Boron is the only mineral capable of accepting and ionizing radiation that never changes the innards or the nucleus of the cell. Spoken simply, boron can take radiation and release it without upsetting its own very delicate balance.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Boron is used extensively in the nuclear industry. Sodium borate is regularly used for standby liquid control systems, in case of emergencies. It was used in Cheronbyl in 1986 mixed with sand to prevent further radiation leakage. It was also used in 1999 in Tokaimura, Japan, to absorb the massive amounts of radiation after an accident at a plant. Currently it is being dumped on fuel rods and in surrounding waters of the Fukushima plant. Boron is widely recognized as extremely safe and can be used to capture radioactivity on our soils, gardens, orchards, etc. It also can be safely ingested by humans and animals. Boron will accept radiation and ionize it within our bodies, after which our bodies will safely excrement the boron and radioactivity.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >We have begun feeding our cows and goats sodium borate at milking times, as well as adding it to free choice kelp and water troughs. In the past years we have monitored boron and other minerals in the soil and have added as necessary to bring levels up to recognized healthy levels. As a safety measure we are planning to implement a boron dosage to all of our pastures, as well as neighboring pastures. For humans, boron can safely ingested at a dosage of 4-10 mg per day. Borax, 11% boron, can be used as a tea and sprayed on your gardens, or land surrounding your home, at a rate of 10# of Borax per acre, 1#, if using elemental boron. Borax can also be ingested at 1/8 tsp to 1 litre water for women, ¼ tsp to 1 litre water for men. Fortunately, red wine and coffee are significant sources of boron, as well as non-citrus fruits, red grapes, plums, pears, apples, avocados, legumes and nuts! Boron is known to be non-carcinogenic, non-mutagenic and has been used internally to protect the astronauts in space as they leave the earth’s protective magnetic field.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><o:p>O</o:p>ther things we can do to protect our bodies are to consume zeolites, use potassium iodine, receive plenty of glutathione, the best source of which is whey!, eat plenty of supergreens, such as kale, but including chlorella and spirulina, maintain healthy mineral levels, and eat lots of good healthy fats, including raw butter, and coconuts, which offer a fantastic layer of protection for our cells. Baking soda has been known to diminish the severity of change produced by uranium to the kidneys, which are the first to show radiation damages of uranium. Dosage is 1 tsp to 8 oz water for adults and ¼ tsp in 4 oz water for children.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >According to Cheryl McCoy, Aboutclay.com, Calcium Bentonite Clay acts as a magnet absorbing anything with a positive charge, ie radiation and toxicity. She suggests washing all produce which may be considered radioactive in 1 part clay to 8 parts water in a non-metallic bowl, soaking for 10 minutes, then rinse and dry as usual. Bentonite clay can be added to catchment tanks, drinking water or raw milk to isolate radioactivity, which will not be released once captured by clay. Also, the body cannot digest clay, but will rather release clay through excrement. Clay can be added to milk or drinking water at a dosage of 1 oz liquid calcium bentonite to 1 gallon raw milk or drinking water. Either allow to settle and pour off or mix and consume clay and liquid. 1-2 oz liquid bentonite clay can be safely consumed per day by an adult, with significant detox abilities.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >In these tenuous times it is all we can do to be honestly informed of the situation at hand and act accordingly. We are doing our best to protect our soil, animals and bodies from the elevated levels of radioactivity, and hope that you will also. Our prayers and blessings are with the farmers and families closer to the source of radioactive pollution. We send them our love and hopes for a green, safe future for all on this earth.</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Blessings,</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Britton & Shekinah<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Milk and Honey Farm<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Pahoa, Big Island Hawaii<o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" >From: http://hawaiihealthguide.com/healthtalk/display.htm?id=915&hhsid=9ea42c3eb9d93ab4faf7ca3cd98ee6d8</span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><b><span class="Apple-style-span" >Helpful Links:</span></b></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.driboseadvantage.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Boost Cellular Energy With D-Ribose</span></a></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.vinpocetinegold.com/">Reverse Memory Loss With Vinpocetine</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.pregnenoloneadvantage.com/">Pregnenolone: The Happiness Hormone</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.dmgadvantage.com/">DMG: The Anti-Aging Nutrient of the 21<sup>st</sup> Century</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.macarootadvantage.com/">Boost Sexual Libido With Maca Root</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.cmosupreme.com/">CMO: The 30-Day Arthritis Pain Cure</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.hoodiamaximus.com/">Hoodia: Eliminates Hunger Pang All Day Long</a> <o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.jubilee3jointrelief.com/">Jubilee 3: Repairing Arthritic Joints, <i>Naturally</i></a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.thesilveredge.com/">Make Your Own Colloidal Silver Inexpensively</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.colloidalsilversuccessstories.com/">Real-Life Colloidal Silver Success Stories</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.colloidalsilversecretsvideo.com/">The Colloidal Silver Secrets Video</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=285212734559">Colloidal Silver Secrets Group on Facebook</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span class="Apple-style-span" ><a href="http://spencerj11.vaccrights.hop.clickbank.net/" target="_top">The Authoritative Guide to Vaccine Legal Exemptions</a><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://www.meetstevebarwick.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" >Meet Steve Barwick</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" ><o:p></o:p></span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif";mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin;mso-hansi-theme-font:minor-latin;mso-bidi-theme-font:minor-latin"><o:p></o:p></span></p>Steve Barwickhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07609959967400251679noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7102032094327566753.post-21544003615325925422011-04-21T14:13:00.000-07:002011-05-25T23:07:01.898-07:00Author of the "Definitive Study" Used to Disprove Vaccine/Autism Link Indicted for Fraud and Embezzlement<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OBvREfT9dnc/TbCfSyzbScI/AAAAAAAABBg/bSBcBdHvwaQ/s1600/vaccines.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 178px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5598149482045458882" border="0" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-OBvREfT9dnc/TbCfSyzbScI/AAAAAAAABBg/bSBcBdHvwaQ/s200/vaccines.jpg" /></a><div><span class="Apple-style-span" ><span class="Apple-style-span">A Danish man was indicted on charges of wire fraud and money laundering for allegedly concocting a scheme to steal more than $1 million in autism research money from the Atlanta-based Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">The indictment charges Poul Thorsen, 49, with 13 counts of wire fraud and nine counts of money laundering. The wire fraud counts each carry a maximum of 20 years in prison and the money laundering counts each carry a maximum of 10 years in prison, with a fine of up to $250,000 for each count.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">The federal government also seeks forfeiture of all property derived from the alleged offenses, including an Atlanta residence, two cars and a Harley-Davidson motorcycle.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">According to U.S. Attorney Sally Quillian Yates, the charges and other information presented in court, Thorsen worked in the 1990s as a visiting scientist at the CDC Division of Birth Defects and Developmental Disabilities, when the CDC was soliciting grant applications for research related to infant disabilities.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">Thorsen promoted the idea of awarding the grant to Denmark and provided input and guidance for the research. From 2000 to 2009, the CDC awarded more than $11 million to two governmental agencies in Denmark to study the relationship between autism and exposure to vaccines, between cerebral palsy and infection during pregnancy and between childhood development and fetal alcohol exposure.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">In 2002, Thorsen moved to Denmark and became the principal investigator for the grant, responsible for administering the research money awarded by the CDC.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">Once in Denmark, Thorsen allegedly began stealing the grant money by submitting fraudulent documents to have expenses supposedly related to the Danish studies be paid with the grant money. He provided the documents to the Danish government, Aarhus University and Odense University Hospital, where scientists performed research under the grant.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">From February 2004 through June 2008, Thorsen allegedly submitted more than a dozen fraudulent invoices, purportedly signed by a laboratory section chief at the CDC, for reimbursement of expenses that Thorsen claimed were incurred in connection with the CDC grant. The invoices falsely claimed that a CDC laboratory had performed work and was owed grant money.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">Based on these invoices, Aarhus University, where Thorsen also held a faculty position, transferred hundreds of thousands of dollars to bank accounts held at the CDC Federal Credit Union in Atlanta -- accounts that Aarhus University believed belonged to the CDC. The CDC Federal Credit Union accounts were instead personal accounts held by Thorsen, the federal government said.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">After the money was transferred, Thorsen allegedly withdrew the fraud proceeds for his own personal use to buy a home in Atlanta, a Harley-Davidson motorcycle, and Audi and Honda vehicles, and to get numerous cashier’s checks.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">Thorsen allegedly pocketed more than $1 million from the scheme.</span><br /><br /><span class="Apple-style-span">From:<span> </span><a

Bb are difficult to isolate, grow, and study in the laboratory. <o:p></o:p></span></span></p><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latinfont-family:verdana;" ><o:p></o:p></span></p><br /><p style="MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt" class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin"><span style="font-family:verdana;">Moreover, there are five subspecies of Bb, over 100 strains in the US, and 300 strains worldwide.

The fact that magnesium is widely available, inexpensive and generally very safe makes it even more viable as a treatment for heart attack patients.
