[…]foods) because they no longer contain them! Concerning white flour and bread(s), when the wheat seed’s bran is removed, it’s six outer layers and the germ (which contains 76%) of the vitamins and minerals is lost. 97% of the dietary fiber is also removed, which is why constipation and cancer of the bowel are so prevalent in ‘developed’ nations.

So eat your saturated fats, monounsaturated fats and Omega-3s… […]

[…]herbicide” and “lower crop prices curb farmers’ purchases of the newest genetically modified seeds. “Monsanto’s sales of seeds and genetic licenses fell 14 percent in the first quarter. Revenue in the agricultural productivity unit, which primarily makes Roundup, tumbled 34 percent.” Monsanto appears to be in a bit of trouble, despite its CEO, Hugh Grant’s claims that the restructuring has to do with meeting profit goals. European and North American farmers simply aren’t buying the chemically-dependent seeds, particularly since the World Health Organization categorized glyphosate as “probably carcinogenic” to humans — meaning it probably causes cancer. In comparison to the […]

Asthma typically worsens in the winter and early spring when vitamin D is at its lowest. 5 Key Supplements for […]

[…]dollar deal was announced between the State-owned ChemChina and Switzerland’s Syngenta, a seed and pesticide company. However, in the US the sale of Syngenta- who supplies farmers with seeds and runs research and production facilities- to ChemChina, has alarm bells going off.
