Organic Food IS Better....

So, "organic food is no better!", I heard you all cry! "You're mad! You're being conned!"....

Yeah, right....

Half of all the fruit & veg you buy is contaminated.

ALMOST HALF of the fresh fruit and veg sold across the UK is contaminated with toxic pesticides, according to the latest scientific surveys for the government.

Nearly every orange, 94% of pineapples and 90% of pears sampled were laced with traces of chemicals used to kill bugs. High proportions of apples, grapes and tomatoes were also tainted, as were parsnips, melons and cucumbers.

Alarmingly, as much as a quarter of the food on sale in 2008 - the date of the latest figures - was found to contain multiple pesticides. In some cases, up to ten different chemicals were detected in a single sample.

Experts warn that the "cocktail effect" of so many different chemicals endangers health. They also point out that some of the pesticides are not only cancer-causing but also so-called "gender-benders" - chemicals that disrupt human sexuality.

I see,.... "cancer causing" as well as "gender bending" chemicals, that "disrupt human sexuality"?

What's that? Speak up. You've gone quiet, you know who you are, you were happy to laud the FSA report at me the other day, what's happened? Where's your cocky put downs now?

So, the headline, on the BBC website, from the 29th July 2009;

Organic 'has no health benefits'
http://tinyurl.com/ngjz27
Organic food is no healthier than ordinary food, a large independent review has concluded.

.... is basically, false, if not an outright lie. It clearly IS healthier, as I'm not ingesting pesticides capable of causing cancer or turning me into a female version of myself, or my son into his sister and vice versa. Not to mention, that the review was so large, it failed to take into account the pesticide issue, one of the main reasons people prefer organic produce.

You can believe the FSA if you want. I don't. I'm sticking with organic food.... sorry, let me rephrase that, I'm sticking with naturally grown food. You can have the lab/chemically enhanced stuff if you want.

But then I'm going to remind you of it next time I hear you comment about how healthy my kids look compared to yours....

Rant over. For now....

Fluoride News...

I see that in the UK, dumping fluoride into the drinking water debate is still raging...

.... so, with that in mind, I bring the followin article to your attention and as always, make sure you are informed...
A Fluoride-Free Pineal Gland is More Important than Ever

There has been some controversy over the activity of adding synthetic fluoride to municipal water supplies and elsewhere, but not enough. The seriousness of this issue is more than what most realize. Fluoridation ranks with GMO's and tainted, forced vaccinations among the great crimes against humanity.

What needs to be understood is the difference in fluorides. There are two types of fluoride. Calcium Fluoride, which appears naturally in underground water supplies, is relatively benign. However, too much consumed daily can lead to bone or dental problems. Calcium is used to counter fluoride poisoning when it occurs. This redeeming factor indicates that the calcium in naturally formed calcium fluoride neutralizes much of fluoride's toxic effects.

On the other hand, the type of fluorides added to water supplies and other beverages and foods are waste products of the nuclear, aluminum, and now mostly the phosphate (fertilizer) industries. The EPA has classified these as toxins: fluorosilicate acid, sodium silicofluoride, and sodium fluoride.

Illegal logging 'will ruin habitat of orang-utans'

The King of the Swingers could soon find himself with nowhere to swing. Orang-utan homes may be wiped off the face of the earth within 10 years, as illegal logging demolishes rainforests in south-east Asia 30 per cent faster than previously feared, the United Nations Environment Programme (Unep) revealed yesterday.

Fluoride Finally Being Recognized As A Curse?

Few noticed in November when the American Dental Association alerted its members via e-mail of a possible problem with giving babies fluoridated water:

The ADA, long among fluoride's biggest advocates, wrote that parents of infants younger than a year old "should consider using water that has no or low levels of fluoride" when mixing baby formula.
